A SINGLE-FRAME GUESSING GAME

By the time GWM officially ended in 2023, there were over 7,000 followers and hundreds of active players from all over the world.  The channel boasted it's own official website, along with merchandise like shirts, hats, stickers, and flyers.  Once a month, an entire week would be devoted to a single theme, with promos and countdowns leading up to the official start of the week's game.

SOME THEME WEEK PROMOS

Each week's theme had a promo that would occasionally play leading up to the official start.

A SINGLE-FRAME GUESSING GAME

Initially, the concept revolved around slowly building a loyal following by giving shout-outs to winners, but, eventually, the idea of points was introduced. But any point system ranking a player based on wins accumulated would be arbitrary and useless without some sort of recognition of players based on the points collected -- so the leaderboard was brought in to officially recognize the top 3 winners of the week.  Winners got their names in lights along with a hash-tagged mention.

NEW THEME EVERY WEEK

An ambitious evolution in the game was the introduction of themes - an entire week (or month) dedicated to films that adhered to a very specific criteria.  As the commitment to themes grew, as did the over-the-top promos that would lead up to the start of the event.  These were fun, creative challenges - but extraordinarily time-consuming.
