Wait, xiayun has never had a 4 spot? That is odd.

He does have 5 consecutive years with at least 2 wins though, which only Omni & Corpse have matched, and is the only player to have 6 years with 2 or more wins. And only you two have won in 7 calendar years.

Look like the 9/16-9/18 weekend won't be counted towards anything even though it's scored. Not thrilled since it means I'd need make up another 30 points in the remaining weeks on Omni/Corpse, and it's already hard as it is, but will just strive to be more precise in future predictions.

Look at this way, Jack. You had the lowest score of the month taken out so your average is still quite high.

I have a feeling I'll be going big or going home with this week's derby.

Yeah if I look at it that way then yes, but I had (sort of big) advantage over 5 people ahead of me in the year end ranking in that game

It figures it would be one the weeks that I won the derby be won't be counted toward anything. Without that week it looks like I am in 3rd place for the month of September 2011 instead of first place. My first ever weekly derby win was Labor Day weekend 2011. My second win was the weekend of 9/16-9/18. (2 wins this month.)
I guess maybe I shouldn't complain, because in July 2011, I was in the top 10 three different weeks, with the highest ranking week coming in 3rd place, and yet I end up in 1st place in the monthly ranking for July 2011, without ever winning derby. :funny:

I added you to my derby statistics Turk - I keep a separate list of the game indexes. The only thing I don't know is what the average score for the game was.

I used to keep a list of all players and their scores for every single game, but it's too much work to keep up, esp. considering that people change their user names so I can't maintain accurate stats. And now with games like this, there's not even data available.

77.82% with estimates. Bad week but that happens when you go off the board with two predictions.

While my numbers are not bad with 87.82% estimates I was off by a lot on WYN?, I thought having more screens would result in something just above tracking, but it looks like only WYN? would be close to tracking numbers.

With estimates, I'm 0.49% behind you with 87.33% My killer was Dream House which I had at 11M. Let's see what happens with actual grosses though. Looking at Sunday estimates. my score might improve a bit.

That would be a great score Sol, I hope we have a tie :thumbsup:
Dream House increasing would bring me closer to 100% on that one ;) and any increase for WYN? is highly welcomed by me :)

I am not believing the estimates this weekend, given that last weekend was horrible, though I read at THR that Monday is like a minor Holiday so I guess family movies will do better.

For now with the current estimates I am at 89.84%, I don't even have any holdover with 100% this weekend. Hope I could be above 89% with the actuals.

One more week with The Lion King and What's Your Number; interesting. Guess predicting 12 films is the norm now.

Its good to see such great scores even with 12 movies. I remember it used to be difficult with 12 movies atleast for me, now I guess Derby regulars are getting used to it.
