Good catch on No. 68, I didn't notice that when I re-read all of the open ones.

I'd still like to see what the alternative counts would be if the disputed items all count.

At any rate, congratulations to outcastja for winning by such a large margin!

I'll throw together some numbers when I get a second and see how big of a difference it really makes with all the disputed ones counting.

Ok. I put together a separate spreadsheet with all of the disputed ones counting (101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 107, 108 and 115).

I like the first way better because #6 > # 8

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game

I actually moved down despite 10 X as much money.

But the main thing is that outcastja wins regardless, So the disputed items really don't matter.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game

How about we count these two as disputed? Or only 75? That way I can be on top. Never held that position, even for a week. Sucks.

{065} The island flashes again (not counting a previous scene where the island flashes). (7:1) $2,000
{075} The island moves again (doesn't count showing the previous movement). (7:1) $5,000

Wow, what a way to go out. Only 22K down. For all the massive amounts of money that flew around, especially at the end, that's a pretty slim margin.

Good job, outcastja!

Well, I can see No. 65 as a disputed item if the island flashed instead of the bomb going off, but nothing suggested that the island moved, so you would only be a closer 2nd unless we do a third count that assumes that the bomb didn't go off, everybody lived and the island flashed... my brain hurts! I think it's time for me to just let it go.

Re: TV Talk's The LOST Game

Not that anybody probably cares at this point (except for maybe DarkestPhoenix), but it dawned on me yesterday for some reason that Bus had included this provision in the last set of predictions: "* {101}-{107} count double IF both people die and/or cease to exist."

Based on that, 101, 103, and 104 would count double (if we indeed went that route). That would actually give us a different set of results, as follows:

DarkestPhoenix Score 11864640
outcastja Score 11706460
awil1026 Score 11254690
Palaver Score 5626400
datagirl7 Score 3037003
The Bus Score 2545950
dvdhook Score 2137618
pinata242 Score 1795000
BlackCapten Score 1739500
Shibboleth Score 1738475
Superman07 Score 1422498
Jason Score 1366860
Jury Duty Score 835328
IDrinkMolson Score 751106
Damfino Score 440292
aktick Score 85700
Raul3 Score 19216
bradler Score 7796
Matthew Ackerly Score 576
BadlyDrawnBoy Score 259
Groucho Score 232
kakihara1 Score 115
kaze0 Score 105
buzzdalf Score 96
kevinlord190 Score 69

Sorry to muddy the waters.
