This is something I forgot to clarify but I've edited the rules on the tournament page as follows ...

"The MAJORITY BUT NOT ALL of the selected movies have a minimum of 500 criticker ratings (click the film profile and scroll down to bottom of the reviews column) Any movie that doesn't meet that criteria is a well known and/or classic film that everyone here is aware it's existence."

I've also decided to suspend the rule about finishing the round after 15 correct answers as I'm still unsure how many people will play. I'll either revise the number after a round or two or remove that rule entirely in a few days time. The game can work without it but it might slow things down a little in some rounds.

Having been planning and working on this for most of the year, it feels weird that this is actually starting now. Hope you all enjoy it!

Only if you smugly think it. If you only just think it, or actually know the answer I don't want to hear from you ;)

Just had someone say they can't see the images in the main tournament thread but they can if they open them in a new tab. Is anybody else having this issue? Images are appearing fine for me in IE and Chrome on Windows and in Chrome on Android.

Yeah, that was me, and looks like I found the problem. My Adguard extension was blocking the images for some reason. Sorry for the false alarm :oops:
