The Winter Game is Open

We are a week later than normal, which did affect the overall title total some, but with the super high price of Star Wars and Justice League, the total cost of the movies remaining is consistent with years past.

One big change: price change increments can now range from .25 to 5 million.
This will help the administrators adjust movies easier when big news affects titles. In the past, if something would affect a movie right before it was released (low theater count), the 2 million max move was too small to adjust properly.

Limits: 2 Blockbusters and 7 Limited titles.

Other than that, business as usual.

Thanks to Keith for continuing to be the Winter Administrator.

I hope you don't mind, but I promoted your site over in my league at FML.  (I finished in the top 20 there this past spring - out of over 18,000 - so I'm in a big boy league now!)  Might be a chance to get some fresh blood to compete against!

I don't mind. Everyone should do what you did.

I mean... I'm not sure I'd go that far... they're still putting pumpkin beer out before labor day after all.

Gross.  I mean, I love beer - drinking a nice IPA as I type - but pumpkin? Eww.

Wow! $220 for Last Jedi?!? I've been around here playing since, I think, the Summer '99 game (Gladiator!), but I can't recall a starting price that high before. Is that the highest in BOC history?

Without a doubt, yes.

I'm not certain, but I would guess yes, unless Force Awakens started higher.

BOM has Last Flag Flying opening in 4 theaters.

Shouldn't it be limited?

Unfortunately, it's within the 10 day rule on this one.
