Kvothe's Movie Star Competition: Cryptic Edition
Kvothe's Movie Star Competition: Cryptic Edition
The Competition section has been looking a bit bare recently so this will be the first of a few that I'm hoping to run over the coming weeks and months.
The Idea:
This is a cryptic clue competition. The basic idea is that I give you a clue and from that you guess the movie star (if you can).
How it works:
Over the next few days I will add the clues. Each clue is for a different movie star. If you think that you know who the clue refers to then you PM me your answer. The first 10 people to give a correct answer for that clue will each receive 1 point. Once ten correct answers for a given clue have been received that clue will be marked as CLOSED. Up until a clue has been marked as closed PMs will be accepted for it even if further clues have been posted.
The clues refer solely to the actor/actress not to characters they may have portrayed in films. All of the clues are puns and wordplay based on the person's name.
Clues will be posted at various times of day in order to not give people in any given timezone a particular advantage.
New clues can always be found in this post
The competition will end 24 hours after the final clue has been posted regardless of whether enough correct answers have been given for that, or previous, clues.
Over the course of the ten days the person who accumulates the most points will be declared the winner.
Rules:
Do not post your answers in the thread
Do not seek additional clues, and do not offer additional clues, help, or answers to other people
Only two guesses allowed per clue
Competition is open to all members 10% and upwards
In the event of a tie a tiebreaker question will be set.
Prizes:
The winner can choose from one of the following:
- AwesomeHD 80k bonus
- HD-Torrents Invite
- HDVNBits 50GB upload + Custom title
- ComicBT 10k bonus
- HDMKV Invite + 50GB upload + Custom title
- ScanBits 2k bonus
- PTM invite + Custom title
- SceneHD heart
Invitation prizes still require you to produce two speedtests for me. You're not eligible for an invite if you have previously been a member of that tracker regardless of why you lost your account. If possible I will add more prizes as the competition progresses.
