So if I understand this correctly, there will be 2 managers from each group that will pass to the next stage, no?

White Nyte, the best two managers from each group will pass to the second round, plus the four "best thirds" from all groups.


(I used this in the previous thread (post #158) to illustrate that situation)

This is an example of the possible result table in group A at the end of round 1 (group stage), after three matches for each genre:

Group A
1. Genre1 VF= 40 VA=10 TV=30
2. Genre2 VF= 20 VA=5 TV=15

3. Genre3 VF= 8 VA=2 TV=6
4. Genre4 VF= 4 VA=12 TV=-8

VF= Votes For VA= Votes Against TV= Total Votes
Win= 3 points for the winner Draw= 1 point for each

The two genres with the highest amount of points will pass directly to the second round. If there are draws, we'll define according to the total votes ("votes for" minus "votes against")

In this proposal, the four "best" thirds from all groups will be able to pass to the second round, but they might play among themselves and eliminate each other. Only for them we would take into account the Total Votes. This is only made with the purpose of giving everybody a chance to show more films. I predict the group stage will probably be the most exciting.

Second Round

First 3rd v Second 3rd
A1 v B2
B1 v A2
C1 v D2
D1 v C2
E1 v F2
F1 v E2
Third 3rd v Fourth 3rd


Third Round
Winner First-3rdvSecond-3rd Vs Winner Third-3rdvFourth-3rd
Winner A1vB2 Vs Winner F1vE2
Winner B1vA2 Vs Winner E1vF2
Winner C1vD2 Vs Winner D1vC2

And so on..

Unless you're facing Javier in the first match, and want to make him go crazy over what film you're playing first

El Capitan Malacara (Carlos Orellana, 1945) . Sierra Madre would be the first thing you'd think of...

That sounds very intriguing, Mauries. I want to have a lot of fun. I can only tell by now, that I hope to pick comedies mostly. We'll have a great match ;)

Good question, Brad. Yes, we can vote in those matches from our same group. That will add extra spice to the competition.... specially in group D, I guess :sh:

all mine are studs of the highest order. No weaklings allowed. I just chose the first 3 as those I would want most of our members to experience in this context. And the order is my dramatic narrative arc to get you all into craving for more of my selections. Aerobics of the mind :sly:
Edited by wba, Feb 10 2015, 10:22 PM.
To please the majority is the requirement of the Planet Cinema. As far as I'm concerned, I don't make a concession to viewers, these victims of life, who think that a film is made only for their enjoyment, and who know nothing about their own existence.
