This is correct as applies to Division 1 and 2. We will have to reconsider this in the future as I did not anticipate too many films making under $1 million being in the top ten. Next game, we’ll probably adopt Division 3 rules.
I don’t know if you are open to suggestions, but I think this would be kind of fair:
Guesses for the weekend’s Top 10:
x < $2.5 = increments of $0.25
$2.5 < x < $25 = increments of $0.5
$25 < x < $50 = increments of $2.5
$50 < x = increments of $5
Kind of like what you have right now, but with the difference being $0.25 increments for guesses less than $2.5.
Just an idea. I know I'm the new guy here and I don't want to spout off any more than necessary.
