Hey all. UNU/Unanimous AI is going to be running an Academy Awards picks swarm tomorrow afternoon. Tentatively, the swarm itself is scheduled at 3pm.
We'll be putting the HIT up for that later today, though, on a 24 hour timer. The HIT probably won't go up until sometime between 3pm and 6pm, because we're really busy (mostly because you guys have been so awesome with your responses and predictions over the last month that it's given us a ton of cool response data to look at).
It'll be a long-ish swarm too. We've got a decent number of Oscars categories to cover.
We'll be paying at least three bonuses on this, and making them generous.
FINALLY....part of the reason we're putting the HIT up today is that we'd like you to at least spend a couple of minutes looking around the internet to sort of get an idea for how things are going to shake out in the Oscars ceremony on Sunday night. This kind of thing really does help with increasing your chance of picking up a bonus. For instance, on the Grammy Award hit we did two weeks ago, we paid like 8 or 9 people bonuses (they tied with the best picks). Four of those winners used the same online source to inform their picks, three of the other winners used a same, different source. Those folks got an average of 5 out of 7 correct. Of the 7 people who said they either didn't use a source or said something similar, they scored just over 1 out of 7 answers correct.
At any rate, tomorrow's a busy UNU day. Doing an NHL HIT as well! Hope to see you folks then!
