General Gold Rush Discussion Thread

[guany]

Yeah, I try and remove all bias when predicting for these things...but I never have the time to research past winners. I just overestimated Argo and The Master and underestimated Lincoln and Zero Dark Thirty

You can't spend 10 minutes on Wikipedia?

He's too busy losing weight, having children and masturbating to tubby pics of Russell Crowe.

Priorities.

That seems counter-productive.

[dlong5665]

60.

Fucking Rachel Weisz.

[Shy_Hallaman]

I got 4 out of 12 categories right. Not so bad for a first-timer.

pretty much...and I do actually have to work...you know...when I'm not wasting time on here.

[boondoggle]

55 not an auspicious start, but decent middle of the pack. Crossing my fingers to do well in NBR.

[Eduardo Zuckerberg]

55 for my first Gold Rush outing.

So, I'm prepared to get burnt but going NGNG and picking Lincoln over Argo for NBR.

[Solarie]

30 points :s However it was a first time I was taking part in this game.

[Juno's Ponytail]

40. This is what I get for not following my gut and switching in Bigelow and McConaughey.

[Jonathan]

30. And this was one of my better awards last year!

[filmy]

Every time I head into the NBR thread I feel like I stay there for an hour, agonizing.

[hugof]

I got 65. Too bad I replaced Sally Field with Anne Hathaway last night.

[caseyfan14]

Ugh. I think I got 40. I always do bad with the critics (NBR-NYFCC,LAFCA, NSFC), but pick it up with the other nominations.

[Submerge]

Congratulations to our winner, Elias Subwell!

5 points away from the top spot, I'll take it. Congrats Elias!

LOL, I agree with all of this.

Good job, Elias Subwell!

[Submerge]

Also, no one should feel discouraged. These scores won't mean anything in the long run.

[Jonathan]

13-way tie for 4th-to-last place!

Yeah, they'll make up what, 1-2% of your final score?
