[QUOTE=Max Torque]
Well, now that I’ve already entered and read some other posts, I think I should say something about this one:

I’m not certain if I read this category in the way that was intended. I read it as, “Name a haunted house or a building from a movie.” But, some later commenters appear to have read it as, “Name a haunted house or a haunted building from a movie.” Can I get a ruling? Or, really, if enough people answer “Bates Hotel” like I did, the answers still count, because points are based on popular vote and not on accuracy, right?
[/QUOTE]

You have some matches. “Correct” answers aren’t the point - the “most popular” answers are the ones you want.

Like I said upthread - I really don’t envy you the scoring on this. The spreadsheet’s gonna have fits.

  12. IOW, me. :wink: My mother’s name is Rosemary, and I was born about the same time that the movie came out. According to my mother the talk got rather old, very quickly.
    ETA: Well, at least this time I’ll have an excuse for being anchor man - I almost never watch horror films, anyways. (Marion Who?)

I have a question about formatting and scoring: does bolding or italicizing an answer affect the ease of scoring?

It’ll be interesting to see how many lists differ in 3 and 4 or in 6 and anything else. I was already torn whether to make 7 and 10 the same.

76

Leaper, you are number 51, so I’ll sit out so that I can include you. (I would have come in 28th, FTR.)

Scores in just a sec.
