Everyone please @ and shame these members who are too chicken to pay up and change their avatars after making the bet now that they lost.
Mine says NOT hit a billion.

Just going with SweetNicole's parameters here. After the mediocre opening weekend, it is essentially impossible to do anywhere close to 1 billion.Don't tou think it's a bit early... The movie hasn't even been out 1 week.
You did read my post right? I bet for one billion yen. I didn't lose rofl.Everyone please @ and shame these members who are too chicken to pay up and change their avatars after making the bet now that they lost.
All that matters is you said FOR. Thems the rules. Enjoy Greymon ☺️You did read my post right? I bet for one billion yen. I didn't lose rofl.

Please show the math on how it actually gets to $1b off of the last weekend. Because it won't add up.I'll gladly change once it's out of theaters and hasn't reached 1 Billion as that was what was stated in the OP when I made the bet. can't just call that shit after a week.

Y'all did change the terms of the deal on us but I'm too lazy to write up some detailed financial plan.Just going with SweetNicole's parameters here. After the mediocre opening weekend, it is essentially impossible to do anywhere close to 1 billion.

It could go on a Gone With The Wind like run!Please show the math on how it actually gets to $1b off of the last weekend. Because it won't add up.
Accept the loss.

Show your work on how it can reach a billion worldwide after having made under $55mil in the United States in its first (and by definition biggest, because of how opening weekends work for films) full weekend
This won't make near $200mil domestic, which would mean it'd need over $800mil internationally. Do you think it's possible, and how with a $112mil start there?
Just following the original terms of the bet.If, by the end of its box office run, Detective Pikachu has grossed less than 1B worldwide, those who bet AGAINST 1B WW get to chose the collective avatar of the other side.

Avatars will last for one month.
I think that's acceptable.
You do realize the amount of territories Pikachu opened and Zootopia opened were very different right.This is how Zootopia made a Billion
Opening International Weekend
$4,500,000
Final International Box Office
$682,515,947

That's how Digimon end up digivolving into their fucked up forms. Don't let the hate take over!No clue. Just going down with the ship. Dying on this hill. Will not go quietly into that good night...rage, RAGE!

So have the collective Goes decided on my new avatar? Can someone pm it to me or quote me with the link?
Because I posted a joke pointing out the lack of denomination in the OP? At the time of posting that the film already had an opening of over ¥900m which is why I posted what I did - because it was a safe thing to say. Hadn't even noticed I was put in the OP until later. Not my fault the post wasn't read properly. I bet ¥1billion and it made over that.
Not changing it until it's out of theatres.Everyone please @ and shame these members who are too chicken to pay up and change their avatars after making the bet now that they lost.
You shouldn't have said "FOR" thenBecause I posted a joke pointing out the lack of denomination in the OP?

For people, the avatar is waiting for you. If you think there's STILL a chance that the movie breaks 1 Billion WW at the Box Office, you'll need to show the math at how you're arriving at that conclusion. It had a 58M opening weekend.
This is the WW total for the opening weekend, and every weekend the amount a movie makes goes down a large amount.
Otherwise, say hello to your new avatar until Wednesday, June 12th. Please reply in this thread when you have put the avatar on so we can see the glorious avatar for ourselves.

And the OP's post or title still doesn't specify a denomination so my original bet still stands. If you can show me it didn't make over a billion yen I'll be happy to concede.

Dude. Lol. You gotta own up.Because I posted a joke pointing out the lack of denomination in the OP?

It's an American film from an American company. The billion implied is clearly USD.And the OP's post or title still doesn't specify a denomination so my original bet still stands. If you can show me it didn't make over a billion yen I'll be happy to concede.
LOL
This is a few posts down on the first page. You can continue to play semantics, but it is and was clear that it 1B USD. Don't be a coward or a sore loser. It's just an avatar...

My post was pretty clear.
Well technically I wasn't…
I saw that as asking whether 9 zeros (a.k.a the american billion) or 12 zeros (the old British billion).This is a few posts down on the first page. You can continue to play semantics, but it is and was clear that it 1B USD. Don't be a coward or a sore loser. It's just an avatar...
If it was a joke you shouldnt have posted in all caps "FOR" as SweetNicole made clear that is to indicate whether you are in for the avatar bet.My post was pretty clear.

I'm not being a sore loser. I make a joke and apparently it was misunderstood. Like you said, it's just an avatar, so no idea why people are so keen on jumping down my throats cos they misunderstood.
i never said it would get there after this weekends performance. i'm just honoring the bet that was made and will gladly sport the new avatar after Detective Pikachu leaves the box office. you just don't change the terms and conditions of a bet after it's been made.It won't, and I would like to see the math of how you get there, but that aside, if you want to wait til the end of the BO run that is fine, but you'll still have to put the avatar on for a month at that time (end of BO run) per the original rules of the bet. Or you could concede now, put it on a for a month, and be done with it. Choice is yours.
This is some gold medal-worthy mental gymnastics.I saw that as asking whether 9 zeros (a.k.a the american billion) or 12 zeros (the old British billion).
Math as in clearly lay out a realistic path given the movie's numbers so far that would lead it to $1B.i never said it would get there after this weekends performance. i'm just honoring the bet that was made and will gladly sport the new avatar after Detective Pikachu leaves the box office. you just don't change the terms and conditions of a bet after it's been made.
Also idk why people keep asking for the math on this, it's basic algebra... $1BN = X + Y where X is equal to the current total. You solve for Y and people spend that much money. the math checks out.
If anyone could give me a date when it's out of theaters that would be great, thanks
I'm extremely disappointed in how few people have changed their avatar.
Y'all realize no one sent a message out, right? Given that the terms wereEveryone please @ and shame these members who are too chicken to pay up and change their avatars after making the bet now that they lost.
How was anyone to know to check in now?If, by the end of its box office run, Detective Pikachu has grossed less than 1B worldwide, those who bet AGAINST 1B WW get to chose the collective avatar of the other side.
