Oscar Confidence Pool 21/22
March 28, 2022What is an Oscar Confidence Pool, you might ask? It's simple enough.
- Picks are made in the usual manner, and then...
- Those picks are ranked from 23 (most confident) to 1 (least confident).
- The highest possible score is a no longer round 276 points.
actually wins! The combination of Sound Mixing and Sound Editing into one category last year, Best Sound, made sense but it has also changed what was once a nice round number for maximum potential points to be won. Hopefully they add Best Stunt Unit or Best Stunt Coordinator and/or Best Second Unit Director one day to readjust to 300 possible points (even if they don't air that award on the telecast)!
Saad K. was our first Oscar Pool victor in 2012/2013 with 17 correct picks! Matthew S. won the first Oscar Confidence Pool in 2013/2014 with a still unmatched 22 correct picks for 290 points! In 2014/2015 it was Oliver D. who won our third Pool with 20 correct picks for 270 points! In 2015/2016 the Oscar Confidence Pool was won by Mark P. with 18 correct picks for 257 points, and then Mark P. because our first Oscar Confidence Pool repeat winner in 2016/2017 with 17 correct picks for 242 points! In 2017/2018 the Oscar Confidence Pool saw our first winner in Rob M. who guessed fewer correct picks with 18, then the runner-up, but ultimately scored more points for the win with 275 points! 2018/2019 was a tough year to guess as Mark P. won for a third time with the lowest correct picks with 15 picks for 229 points! Mark P. would then repeat once again with a personal best 21 correct picks for 258 points in 2019/2020! Christopher D. would be our newest winner of the Confidence Pool last year with 18 correct picks for 243 points in 2020/2021!
