Name That Screenshot game

Postby Ryuk on Thu Jun 10, 2010 12:06 pm

I was thinking perhaps we could introduce a thread where everyone would be invited to participate in a competition to name a selection of screen caps taken from mystery movies. I saw this done on a similar forum where I used to be active and it was quite fun to do, where one person takes screenshots from movies of a certain country or genre and people PM the competition co-ordinator the answers. The winners could perhaps win something, or have the prestige of a medal in their signature box or something.

Unless someone has mentioned this before...

A game thread might be fun to do as opposed to an actual competitive thing, I'll whip up something later!

Cool! Although I wonder how it would work considering that most times, this forum board is pretty inactive :(

I guess we're small but loyal. A lot of asian film sites forums are like crypts, even lovehkfilm and hkmdb are dead. Don't know what it is * shrug *

Well I suppose it could still work, with what members are still around.

I'm not sure I get enough freebies to keep prizes going, but I reckon it would be fun to give it a go.

And any suggestions for pulling people into the forums is always welcome, although I wonder if forums in general just aren't as popular as they used to be.

I guess the main culprit here is Facebook. But hey, this site probably just needs a bit more advertising on other affiliate sites or something, who knows. I for one would definitely be up for this. I'll throw up some screenshots once I get enough. Which board would it be in? General?
