DDA's 2015 Screenshot Contest - Blu-ray Forum

DoubleDownAgain · 02-12-2015, 06:34 AM

I am starting a screenshot contest. I'll award the winner of each round the Blu-ray/DVD of their choice from my For Sale/Trade List. I'll ship to anyone within the Continental USA & Canada (Maybe elsewhere depending on shipping costs)

Round 1 will consist of 10 screenshots. I will either post a end date & time, or will give an hours notice before closing the current screenshot. But each screenshot will be up for a minimum of 24 Hours.

PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR GUESS VIA PM (PRIVATE MESSAGE)

If you post your guess you will be eliminated for that round, and possibly forever. Please do not ruin it for other members. This includes hints, witty (or not so much... ) comments. It may be obvious to you, but not to everyone so please keep your comments to yourself until the answer is revealed. If someone does post something that may give the answer way I will use my judgement to see how to proceed. I don't want to punish those that got it right because someone else made a mistake.

SUBMISSION RULES
Submit your guesses by sending me a PM (Private Message)
In the Title: field make sure the list the round & screenshot: As an example "1.2 Guess" or similar, as it will make going through the screenshots and tracking everyones guesses easier.
In the Message: field please include the title. Please note, that if there are movies with the same name please use the year or IMDB ID so I can easily identify which film it is. If I feel I have to guess then it won't be counted as correct. So if it's reamke, sequel, etc please use thefull title and year. (Star Wars, Evil Dead, The THing all come to mind)
You can change your guess, but only your last guess counts. If you guessed it correctly but then submitted another guess your last guess is your official guess.
I am going by the timestamp of your PM, one second over and it doesn't count.

I will post the results shome time after the round is closed. I will not let you know by PM if you have gotten it right or wrong. The results will be posted in the thread as well as in the main post.

Only reason I'm being overly wordy with the words is because I have done this before and trying to cover all my bases!

ALSO NOTE: I AM RUNNING MY SCREENSHOTS THROUGH GOOGLE IMAGE SEARCH AND ONLY POSTING THOSE THAT DON'T GIVE IT AWAY. SO DON'T WASTE YOU'RE TIME!

It is apparent this is going to be a tad on the difficult side as Google Image Search is pretty robust.

Please see below for the first SS of the first round.

What are the posts that say reserved?

lrt106 · 02-12-2015, 08:53 AM

Also, so is this right?: all 5 screenshots will be from the same movie, and we have to guess what that movie is?

I'm pretty sure the reserved posts are just in case DoubleDownAgain wants to add any more information that he/she wants near the original post.

It's a technique folks use frequently when creating an OP to give them some flexibility without modifying the OP.

DoubleDownAgain, this is a very cool, creative giveaway!!

...I wish I had a clue, though.

Also, do you mind if I post your guesses? I think it would be fun to see what others have guessed.

Here are some screenshots I took for a film, but gave up as all four of these came up on Google Image Search:
