$3 to play, or 2 entries for $5.
Winner takes 75 percent, second place earns 25 percent of the total
pot. Select one entry from each category. Scoring favors the major
awards. Categories are worth one point, unless listed otherwise. The
maximum number of points a person can earn is 30. If there are
co-winners in an Oscar category, each winner receives full point
value. If there is a tie at the end of the ceremony, the answer to
the tie breaker question will determine the winner, starting with the
name of the movie, followed by the person who guesses closest to the
correct number of Oscars that movie won. If the contest is still tied
at that point, the pot will be divided among the co-winners equally.
