Can someone post the Final Cut question for this week?

I'm just curious to know why scores were so low this week (at least after the top 6 locations or so, particularly locations on page two from 11-20).

And if you thought those scores were low, get a load of the Playback scores from the following night

Maybe the buzztime writers had a Trading Places-type wager going on this weekend to see how just how far they could sink the premium game scores :roll:

They also may be taking bets on how many regular players that they can run off.

Well, something tells me that someone at NTN Buzztime is having more than a lil heartburn over seeing the same site(s) at or near the top of both Spotlight and Playback, and wants to see other sites either win or "...have a better chance to win..." :roll:

Heaven forbid the best teams win.

Oh shit, maybe now we know why premium game national rankings weren't being shown. Pretty soon BT will stop keeping score altogether so the general public won't feel like the ignorant saps they are.

Final cut was "which actor appeared in 8 consecutive movies that grossed at least $100 million?

Tom Cruise
Harrison Ford
Mel Gibson

Wow, great question too bad there is two correct, or no correct answers....

Tom Cruise also had eight in a row, with only a narrator spot in the middle.
Will Smith had a movie in the middle with a cameo.

So, neither had 8 in a row.. Sounds like it would have been a fun evening on a crap shoot.

Next week's final, What number is BT thinking in their tiny heads?
1) 42
2) 31
3) 42 (the correct answer)
4) 17
5) 14

I much prefer a game that is overly difficult than overly easy, as long as the question content is approriate.

Too easy if the correct answer is in the 3 spot. That way all the conspiracy theorists who couldn't play their way out of a paper bag would get it.

If the question content is appropriate, I don't have a problem with the question either. It would also be appropriate if BT would put the site rankings back up again in addition to the individual rankings. That is material for another topic.

Where is that damn horse? :evil:

Maybe if they don't show up after Showdown tomorrow, then it will be a topic.
