Catholic School horror stories
When I was in 4th grade I puked on the girl next to me in church during an all school mass. It was on her coat and in her hair. I think thats why she hated me moving forward. Pretty sure her name was amamda er something. Share your nightmares of similair nature.

Only 25 (?) of the nominees have seconds. I would urge people who still have second votes available to visit the google doc and pick their favorite which needs a second to get through the nominating process.
Oh...I'll likely add in more seconds for people soon. I may allow some more nominations from the same people as well.
It's more of a having fewer seconds than nominations leads to a lot not having seconds. This is less of an issue as the nominations grow past 128, but still not great for seeding.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)

As for seeding, I urge you Vash to use your judgment to assign seeds of those which are tied in nominations, not to seed randomly. One of the few privileges of running the show. More importantly, I think it makes the early pairings better so that worthy nominees are seen through to round 2 rather than facing off arbitrarily.

Can someone second Big Trouble in Little China? It'd be a damn shame if it didn't make the cut. Not sure it fits into Action-Adventure, though... Do we have a Martial-Arts Comedy Adventure category? lol
Any (Foreign Language) Jackie Chan Film > Big Trouble in Little China
Someone should nominate Police Story 3

I am shocked and appalled by the lack of culture of the webDip community. Time to change that with the undisputed triad of cinematic achievement.

1 Police Academy 3: Back in Training
2 Smokey and the Bandit II
3 Citizen Kane
Use the correct format please. And i nominated citizen kane

Good news, Octavious. Now you can squeeze in American Ninja 2.

##NOMINATE V for Vendetta - it could fit into thriller, drama, or sci-fi
##NOMINATE Moneyball - miscellaneous, I guess?
##NOMINATE Ted - comedy
##NOMINATE Adventures of Tintin - Action/Adventure

##SECOND Star Wars Episode V
##SECOND Monsters Inc.

Shin Godzilla and Beasts of No Nation are both very deserving of nominations they have yet to get.
Octavious (2701 D)
18 Apr 17 UTC
Sigh... I guess I should do this properly.

##NOMINATE Liberty (Laurel & Hardy, 1929)
##NOMINATE Ice Cold in Alex
##NOMINATE The Muppet Christmas Carol

All three have been my favourite film at some stage in my life :)
TrPrado (461 D)
18 Apr 17 UTC
And your fourth? Perhaps Shin Godzilla, the best of all the Godzilla films?
Octavious (2701 D)

And your seconds? Casablanca is apparently the only one of my nominations yet to have a second.
Someone should show Network, L.A Confindential and Gone Girl some love....All hail the underrated
Octavious (2701 D)
18 Apr 17 UTC
No seconds as yet. Only a couple of the films mentioned so far would make my top 20, and it would need to be at least top ten to be seconded.
TrPrado (461 D)

How are we forgetting Breakfast Club?
Vash when you get a chance could you list the nominations again? I just want to see where you're slotting everything.

For example, if someone nominated Guardians of the Galaxy, would you put that in comedy, sci-fi, or action?
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)

@TrPrado: That says volumes about your taste in movies.

Does anybody else constantly get assigned the same country or countries? I've entered into maybe 15 games and every time but one, have been assigned either England, Germany, or Russia.
