Feedback & Support

I understand that, but I think therein lies my question/point.

Posted by: Phatcat on Jun 13, 14:10 in response to Antibody's post Only films likely to be made and released theatrically....

The game would be better if riskier props were available. IPO every blacklist screenplay at a few bucks (for those not already being actively produced) so that those players taking a shot are handsomely rewarded if they ever make it to a theatrical release. Delists SHOULD be a major part of the game and you shouldn't shy away from having more of them. For every additional 20 delists, you would have one or two that pay out and make the game a lot more fun, IMO. As I stated before, the game has evolved pretty much into a game less about its original intent (can you predict a succesfull movie), and more simply who has the time to short every netflix IPO and get in on every Marvel IPO.

I now understand it is a limitation on availible man-hours which is undersandable, although I would think there are enough passionate players still around that a few would be willing to volunteer their time to help the game in this regard. I would be, but I understand that I would not be in the inner-trust circle so I won't ask.

Why are moviestock listings so limited? Phatcat Jun 07, 17:54

Fair enough I guess... BTW Phatcat Jun 08, 12:11

I read it wrong. Mebbe my eyes were crossed. {nm} Grunt Jun 09, 08:18

Only films likely to be made and released theatrically. I'd guess only 1 in 20 Blacklist Screenplay gets made. Antibody Jun 11, 11:55

Its also a matter of that's the way the industry works now. DTravel Jun 13, 15:51

The game is about predicting the box office. Buying a cheap stock and hoping it hits big doesn't really do that. {nm} Antibody Jun 13, 17:04

Fair point, but how does offering a Netflix movie offer anything to that end? {nm} Phatcat Jun 13, 19:55

They're offered close to what they're worth and used to track theatrical releases with StarBonds and Award potentials. {nm} Antibody Jun 13, 20:27

You're currently holding only 26 securities. There are nearly 1000 MovieStocks you can invest in. {nm} Antibody Jun 13, 17:15

I don't play the game the same way or for the same reasons others do... to simply accumulate H$. Phatcat Jun 13, 19:53

There are hundreds of MovieStocks in development you can pick and choose from. Antibody Jun 13, 20:21

Ironic that you want Improvements to the HSX Game when you are playing just 1.1% of it (26 / 2,303 M/S, S/B, Derivatives, MovieFunds). Captain Obvious Jun 13, 18:44

This is the Feedback forum, right? Am I not supposed to offer "feedback"? {nm} Phatcat Jun 13, 19:39

And you did. And you received Obvious Feedback to your Feedback. That's how it works. {nm} Captain Obvious Jun 13, 19:43

All that you have is an IDEA. For a Serious Submission, you need a PLAN - Objectives, Actions, Resources, Implementation Procedures. {nm} Captain Obvious Jun 13, 22:24
