Oscar Confidence Pool 2016/2017 Results
March 03, 2017
Amazingly, because of how the Confidence system of Trivia Club's Oscar pool works, only an unlucky few who put big points behind the seemingly inevitable crowning of La La Land ultimately affected. By then the top two finishers had built up enough momentum and didn't lose much, while the next two in the standings had not put enough confidence behind the feel good victory for the first all-Black AND LGBTQ Best Picture winner! The biggest winner, thanks to Moonlight? The fifth spot in our Top Five!
Just as a reminder as to how our Oscar Confidence Pool works!
- Picks are made in the usual manner, and then...
- Those picks are ranked from 24 (most confident) to 1 (least confident).
- The highest possible score is a wonderfully round 300 points.
