Your stats look perfect to me Willie. I think you're done. Think the only other stat things people are tracking can be picking up by a split second glance at lists (reviews done?, formats tracked?).

Here are the stats for challenge rookies...

Spoiler:
First Timers:
Top Challenge Rookie – MysterioMan007 (193 films)
Newbies This Year - 8

Note: Rookies seem to include MysterioMan007 (193 items), Nunayobiznus (46), numbercrunch (143), jortgonfreit (0), massivemoviefan (5), Music (44), Dr. Mantle, TheBigDave. I looked for 2015 join dates first, secondly made a list of participants I didn't recognize that I cross references with prior challenges using name search (since Chad lists participants names searching forum by username pulls any challenge threads listing that member).


...I think all the stats from past year are covered, are we missing any?

Some stats before I post winners ...if you wanna use 'em...

Total number of participants - 123
Number reaching 100 & Over - 32

Participants completing optional lists:
Checklist - 21
Theme Nights - 26
31 Film Subset - 9

Aside from the four winners, I unfortunately failed to save the '5 or more challenges' and '10 or more challenges' lists, but I do have last year's that you can work from.

Oh, that's me! About that, I just added those 4 TV tags and 1 overlooked FTV. Sorry. This is all so new and strange to me.

My list is now complete.

Too late, no going back now (I believe I correctly inferred based on subject matter)

Yippee! I knew you all liked me.

Thank you to all the sponsors who make a fun challenge even more fun by providing prizes. Thanks to all the peeps who are putting together the stats. You might not realize how much it is appreciated, but it is. Thanks to all the other participants for keeping such a great atmosphere with your lists and comments. I would often get behind on the discussion threads and spend hours catching up. And of course, thanks to Chad for hosting yet again and getting it all together.

Congrats, SterlingBen! Well deserved.

And congrats to me as well. This year I took inspiration from Eli Roth and made a human sacrifice in honor of Random.org. Glad that paid off. Would have felt slightly guilty if I hadn't won anything.

Congrats everyone! And a lesson for everyone, but watching the most and qualifying for every possible drawing, two years in a row, does not guarantee you even a minor prize. I'd be sad, but happy that my wife is happy; one less package.

My list that I accidentally uploaded an old version of has been corrected and is final. I don't expect anyone to go back that's already done stats, but in case you haven't.

Also a big shout out to Chad! And shout out to whoever deleted the two lists before me, as it landed me on Page 1... Finally! And also to dcrw6 for the 2010 Subset pic of Sheitan. I love my list header picture so much I might just use it again next year (with more legible font and color, of course).

Good news to wake up to and see I won a prize.

This is just icing on the cake as the horror challenge is a fun ride itself. One of the many reasons to look forward to in October/Halloween.


Big respect to Chad, for still making this another great horror challenge year.

And to you guys, for all the movie suggestions and participating in this thread. Exchanging input with each other and helping us find some nice treats.

THANKS!!!

I took last week off from work and did absolutely nothing. I didn't even glance at this thread, just started catching up with the DVR backlog. So, sorry that I didn't have all my stats neatly complete. I will try to do that tonight to make it easier on the stats guys.

Despite qualifying for nearly all prize categories, this is the first time in all my horror challenges that I did not win something. I guess the lucky streak had to end eventually.

Congratulations to all the winners and a big thank you to all the sponsors and participants. October never disappoints. Already looking forward to next year.

I noticed that too; it's strange that multiple people started deleting their lists after the challenge.

Yeah, that's actually sad and doesn't deserve a shout-out. But I never get to the list thread in time to be on Page 1 (when viewing is adjusted to more posts per page). But I'd rather lists stay up, for sure. No matter how many are watched.

Page 1 is Page 1, regardless of how you got there!

Thanks to Chad for organizing another great year of the Challenge. Thanks to the awesome forum members for all the guidance/ suggestions/ discussion through the month. I've got a notepad full of movie suggestions that I'll be working my way through. Thanks to random.org for hitting my number and congrats to all the prize winners. Aren't we all winners though? Can't wait until next October.....

Hehe! 69!

Congratulations to all the prize winners! I had a wonderful time participating in the challenge. While I wasn't able to either get to 100 entries or finish up the checklist, I was able to watch a lot of good films and get several seminal ones off my to-watch list, including the original Halloween and A Nightmare on Elm Street.

I look forward to next October!
