You must be kidding me. Closed just 30 minutes after midnight? Oh well, good that I'm not contending for the yearly race. Amos got screwed. And since I see a lot of "0" ranking, I bet many didn't get the chance to update their predictions.

Whoa, I'm glad I entered them before deadline. Usually, it's open until at least 6AM over here so I don't rush into entering them in, but good thing I did tonight.

I didn't even know the deadline was tonight. Usually, there's a note at the top of the home page saying "DERBY DEADLINE TONIGHT" or something, but nothing tonight. Good thing I'm not going for the yearly race, since I already missed a game, and will miss more in July.

Yeah, if someone didn't post earlier that tonight was the deadline, I would have forgot.

I knew it's tonight all along; I just didn't expect it to close right on the mark since it always has had at least 1 or 2 hours of grace period.

Argh, 5th at the half-way stage and now gone like that
EDIT: Knew it was tonight myself, just also *thought* I knew I had some time left, I predicted the same time I do every other week and it's usually okay.

Darn it, I missed it too. Oh well, it's been my worst year so far since I started playing, so I can let it go

I missed the deadline too, by like 3 minutes. I thought I had loads of time, and I was in the derby entry page, but then it shut down instantly on me. I was contemplating taking a break though anyways.

Come on, BOM, you are not going to skip the biggest weekend of all, are you? I guess it'll be easier to win for everybody since with only one day of window, the total number of entries should be a lot fewer than it would've been on a regular week.

#18. Not bad, considering that I underpredicted Prada by over $10 million. Heh.
Great score, Scott!

Jeff 42: 78.925%, Ranking: 94
Vovanik: 77.468%, Ranking: 140
Crag Hack: 76.819%, Ranking: 159
PEACE, Mike.

Thanks guys.
I also like to mention that I won for the month of June.
And wow, the top three players did horrible. I am really closing in the gap now. I just can't screw up these games and I'll be fine. Though this coming weekend should be one of the easiest to predict, so anything goes.
