Ummm No I don't. The big port and BONDS get about 299 out of 300 per month, and sometimes the wrong answer was a wrong click.

Posted by: mrbinns (a.k.a StarBondFund) on Nov 07, 20:00 in response to Antibody's post Then you get the wrong answer.

I also let Bruce @ the-numbers know when the search does not work well and I let HSX know when there is a typo like "Veggie Tales" instead of the correct "VeggieTales" because I am comparing 2 different sources.

I have tried using HSX and it is really difficult.  If I want the box office for say, JONAH, i get JHILL....bah.  So I click on "advanced , type in JONAH, click on advanced, click on Moviestocks, and now I get to choose between Johex and JONAH, so now I have to get another page,   And this is simple? 

But for the next round, I have to click to a fresh page to get to choose delisted, or go backward.  At the-numbers, there is always an appropriate search box.    and the domestic box office for Jonah the VeggieTales movie is exact, to the dollar, with what I had at HSX.

DMac, do not be so defensive.  It is just a game within a game.

hello there. There might be a misteke in "Movie Mogul" "Polar Express Vs Lincoln": // I answered "Polar Express & got it wrong. TheFox Nov 03, 17:48

per BOM, Polar Express had several re-issues on IMAX. I'm guessing not all of those were reported to ERC {nm} JDolphin Nov 03, 20:31

If you are not checking the numbers in HSX, refresh the page and get a new pairing.. ERC stopped Jan 2005..the last 7 years not counted. {nm} Buy BONDS 21 Nov 04, 04:34

If you click on 'Multiple' for Polar Express, you can see the detailed Box Office numbers. Link attached. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 04, 04:45

Unfortunately, POLAR as well as UDS3D and HUBLE, kept earning after they stopped reporting to ERC. Hard to know when the reporting stopped. mrbinns Nov 04, 08:45

HSX does not use BOM. The box office used are on their respective security page. {nm} Antibody Nov 04, 09:36

Sure - but it's faster using BOM. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 04, 12:37

Which are difficult to access because they are delisted. {nm} DTravel Nov 06, 13:19

You can use our Advanced Search - pull down Active & Delisted Antibody Nov 07, 10:11

Insignificant Difference - there is always a minimum One (1) MILL Difference between the two Answers. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 18:35

Then you wasted all this time complaining for nothing! {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:02

Huh? Was never Complaining. Pointed out that there was an Insignificant Difference between BOM & ERC Numbers. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 08, 10:10

The original question is "Why did I get the answer WRONG for using BOM?" Antibody Nov 08, 10:25

And the Original Response was to show how to get the Correct Answer using BOM. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 08, 10:29

You won't always get a correct answer on BOM. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:33

There are only a couple that have any kind of vital Difference. They are easily Spotted / Avoided. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 08, 10:38

One of which is what started this thread. I provided the 100% failsafe HSX way. You just added noise. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:50

Here's another HUGE Reason - as DTravel has stated it's a lot more difficult. Check out the following Difference. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 12:44

HSX using ERC for box office. You want them to switch policies so you can have an easier time cheating at a game that gives you free money? {nm} lapuckfan Nov 07, 16:18

Chill Out. Nobody is Cheating by using Searches. Nobody is asking HSX to switch from ERC. RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 16:42

Then what are you ranting about? {nm} Antibody Nov 07, 17:07

Nobody is Ranting about anything - except for the one that thinks Searches are Cheating (which they aren't). {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 17:12

I use the-numbers and edit copy paste the name in the search box. I also use 3 open windows (on a large screen lap top)... Buy BONDS 21 Nov 07, 16:25

a good player has all the box office totals memorized. {nm} islander Nov 07, 16:34

Others have Ken Jennings on Speed Dial. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 16:44

He says he uses wikipedia {nm} Buy BONDS 21 Nov 07, 19:33

Personally, I just (educated) guess ;-) {nm} srrichardson Nov 12, 00:33

You can also pull down the security to just MovieStock. {nm} Antibody Nov 07, 17:43

Sure - another Extra Click - every time. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 07, 18:37

I'm telling you how to get the right answer everytime. if you don't want to use it, that's your problem. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:03

It's not a Problem. It's a case of using a Faster Search Solution. Don't get so Bent-Out-Of-Shape over it. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 08, 10:16

It's a problem according the person who started the thread. Faster doesn't get you right every time. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:27

And you showed them your HSX Solution. And they were showed the BOM Solution. {nm} RotoHockeyYTD2013 Nov 08, 10:40

He's already using the BOM way, that's how he got it wrong! Again, you've added nothing. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:43

and you get the wrong answer because you have to choose between 5 different securites or more with the same name. Buy BONDS 21 Nov 07, 19:32

Huh? The exact poster and the release date are provided. {nm} Antibody Nov 08, 10:05
