I was thinking of posting this and see if anyone is interested.
Simple game. Each week we pair up two people and they recommend a movie for each other to watch. They give the film a rating out of and then the next week the partners are shuffled and the whole thing starts over.
One week to watch one movie, seems easy and lax enough. After we've partnered up with everyone the person who has the most "popcorns" gets first place and a nice pat on the back.
So if I were to recommend a film to @cricket and he gave it a I would have 3 points for that week.
The next week I recommend a film to @Citizen Rules and they give the film a then my score goes up to 8.
Since there is no "prize" there should be no incentive to give every film a bad rating in the hopes you win. This is just a fun and friendly game to see if we can recommend films to people that they might not normally see.
It could be interesting to see how we perceive other people's tastes in films or you want them to see something that you love and want to share with more people. Whatever the reason for your rec it's totally up to you.
I know HoF's are popular and I love participating in them too, I feel like this could be a nice addition to the forums.
Rules:
The person must not have seen the film.
You have one week to watch one movie...everyone should be able to manage that.
Post a little blurb about it here with the rating and I will keep a log of everyone's points.
