Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
I guess I'll go ahead and update my numbers with {013}, {016}, {022}, {033}, {052}, and {59} being definitive winners.
Bus,
You want to give an official ruling on the boat one {062}? I can update it with little effort.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
Well, it's updated. I won't post the rankings until Bus makes a call on 62. That'll obviously make a pretty big difference in the scoring.
Check for errors, etc.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
We were shown not only the sub but also the sailboat. {062} counts. Sorry for any delay. And don't act like I wasn't clear about it. Motor-powered and wind-powered are very unambiguous descriptions for vehicles.
Alright, let's get this new week underway.
Palaver, sorry for not noticing your PM.

Sometimes over-clarification is confusing, especially to a bunch of internet nerds

LOST Game — Week Eight
You have $5000 to spend between these predictions. You can bet on any number of predictions. Any unused money from this week is lost. As I mentioned before, as the totals start getting up there, I'm going to increase each week's play money.
Predictions are in this format:
{Number} Prediction (Odds)
{071} During an episode, (aside from what the title of the episode is) no reference to "Star Wars" is made. (3:1)
{072} There is a scene showing a canoe, lifeboat, kayak, paddleboat, or otherwise human-powered only watercraft. (3:1)
{073} It is revealed that Jack's dad is not alive (he is a ghost, apparition, robot, clone of the "real" dad, etc.) (9:1)
{074} There is a closeup on an eye.(7:1)
{075} The island moves again (doesn't count showing the previous movement). (7:1)
{076} We see the ship The Black Rock or hear dialogue about it (which must include the name of the ship). (7:1)
{077} At least three of the Oceanic 815 survivors are shown wearing a hat during an episode. (4:1)
{078} Alex appears again. (6:1)
{079} It is revealed/explained whether or not Alex in "Dead is Dead" was actually alive, dead, or just an illusion created by the Monster/the Temple/anyone/etc. (8:1)
{080} Charles Widmore is on the island anytime after the initial Oceanic 815 crash. (11:1)
Off you go! Post your bets here by Wednesday, April 15th at 8:55PM EST.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
Wow, I have no idea what I would bet on. Anything I think might happen, I don't see happening tonight. Decisions...
Need to wait on Palaver to update the spreadsheet so I can get a current number anyway.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
I updated my spread sheets. Here's the score I got to this point.
[edit]Removed these scores due to two errors in the scoring. I'll put the corrected score in a post below. Sorry.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
$10680 to spend. And I agree with Pinata, these are more long-term predictions, and probably won't happen tonight.

{072} There is a scene showing a canoe, lifeboat, kayak, paddleboat, or otherwise human-powered only watercraft. (3:1) $2000

{079} It is revealed/explained whether or not Alex in "Dead is Dead" was actually alive, dead, or just an illusion created by the Monster/the Temple/anyone/etc. (8:1) $1000
$4000 left in the bank.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game
The spreadsheet was supposed to re-publish automatically when changes were made, but it didn't for some reason. I manually re-published it. It should now match up with what I posted here.
The 33749 is the correct amount for you datagirl7.
Sorry for the confusion.
