SaucyMi Dominates Screenshot Trivia
By: Jarrod SarafinDate: Monday, March 10, 2008
After five hard fought rounds of Weekly Screenshot Trivia, our beta version has come to an end. We’ve tested the waters to see how many fellow Maniacs want to put their knowledge of movie screenshots to the test and it seems clear from the competition these five rounds, we have a lot of movie experts. The winner for this beta version, what we have dubbed the preseason, is most definitely Maniac Saucy Mi. Not only did he win round 3 and 4 in back to back fashion but he has also taken the top spot for our final preseason fifth match.
He also dominated the overall preseason scoreboard with 90 points. A big congrats to Saucy Mi for your movie expertise! Clearly, you’ll be a force to be reckoned with in our new official version which will be going live very soon.
Expect the official Weekly Screenshot Trivia version on the site shortly, fellow Maniacs. You will be able to answer the screenshots directly from your computer and there will be no more emailing the answers my direction and having to worry about errors on my part. See notes below for that one, Peckinpahwannabe and MyerFreddy.
The gloves can come off as the preseason is now over. Everyone starts from scratch and may the biggest Maniac Movie geeks win!
As I say, when the official version goes live on the site, you will be able to answer the questions directly on site whether your logged in or not. If you want your Mania username to be attributed to your scoreboard totals though, it's best to log in. If you're only doing it for fun, then it's up to you. Another thing to note with the official version. Your answers need to be precise when naming a movie. I can't stress that enough before going into the official game. If you need help on the official name, consult the database over at IMDB. The name that is listed there will be the answer for the trivia.
Example: If the screenshot is from Revenge of the Sith in a future game, you will need to put Star Wars: Episode III-Revenge of the Sith in the answer box. Not just Revenge of the Sith and not any variation of it. It must be precise. I want to warn everyone ahead on that one in case someone feels wronged because they wrote "Matrix 2" instead of the correct title The Matrix Reloaded.
And with that, our beta edition of Weekly Screenshot Trivia has come to an end.

Peckinpahwannabe, I added that 1 point to your score but I need you to check your email for a question I sent your way this morning. When I grab your email, I'll update your numbers again here.
MyerFreddy, I added that two points from last week to your final score for the Pet Cemetery issue.
And everyone else, expect the official version very soon here. Goodluck and remember, you must be precise on your answers from now on in any official Screenshot Trivia games...Whether it's for movies, television, anime, etc.
If you know a movie screenshot but you're unsure of the title, consult Imdb.com's listings for that movie. The answer will be worded precisely from their listings.
Thanks and good luck everyone!
