Nah, you're actually increasing the lead; should be 90 points ahead after this week is counted. :)

However, the usual suspects are closing in, as Omni/Corpse are now 3rd/4th with Scott 6th.

Hey thanks guys. Pleasant surprise for me!

SolC9 - shaping up to be a good Inferno too! Wish I hadn't updated my predix now though....

Looking at Gopher's History, he's definitely becoming (has become) a top predictor over the past 9 months or so. His first few months were a bit rough, though most are in the beginning. And going back to July 2009, Gopher has only been outside the Top 100 3 times. And while he doesn't have nearly as many games as some of us, his avg. ranking is on par with the usuals.

Remus (RUS) - 57.4 (79 Games)
xiayun - 62.1 (297 Games)
Corpse - 65.6 (145 Games)
Gopher - 66.4 (48 Games)
Scott - 68.5 (417 Games)
Omni - 68.8 (166 Games)
Funnycide - 74.1 (91 games)
Telesto - 74.3 (180 Games)

It's nice to see a new face on the charts.

Nice score Ryu!

It's about time I got back to the top 10. I've been outside the top 100 for
the last month and haven't been in the top 10 since November 22.

Yes, I've been predicting for the last 3 months, due to the Inferno, and I've been playing the derby for two weeks now. It's good to be back, even though my scores so far have been atrocious :(

They're waiting until Lionsgate releases some numbers they've requested for Kick Ass apparently. I don't think Brandon is going to include the Thursday previews into the weekend number.

I always wonder why a distributor can tally exact grosses for every single day of a movie's run except for a partial first day. I really, really do.

Looks like they didn't want to wait any longer and scored the week. There is this poll I just spotted though,

Should 'Kick-Ass's Thursday 10 p.m. gross be separated from its Weekend gross? (It would still count towards the total.)

62.3% Yes. Thursday is not part of the weekend.
37.7% No. This is just a technicality.
822 users polled.


Only Top 100's I see from here are asalem182 and BJ. Congrats!

107/108 this week.

93.55%. Looks like a great game for me.

Incidently, I predicted 11.2 for BUP, 7.6 for Losers, and 7 for Oceans.
