 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
As expected, nice score (88.63%) but so-so ranking. We should have risked a little more on some holdovers.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks, Levy! 122 points lead in the yearly race heading into the stretch run. Going to be fun. I might just be able to beat Vov for the first time ever  (yeah, I won 2005, but Vov had a higher average and if he had played the two games he missed, he'd have won; and I wouldn't have beaten him if I played all the missing weeks in 2006). And still hoping to set a yearly average record, currently held by Gemini at 84.73%.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
NEVERMIND!
I see what I did, dammit. I didn't change American Ganster and Bee Movie around. We originally had 38 for both, and I had Bee Movie as No.1, then decided to change them to: AG-40, Bee-37, and I didn't change them around.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
46th. Would have been top 10 if I had managed to lower LFL like I wanted... Okay, though
The usual suspects around the top 20 although the WOKJ gang had better weekends

Yep, congrats Scotty. And many from KJ did very well.
And also to the mass orgy of RUS players. 9th.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Scott on your 7th win!
Haven't played well this month, and it doesn't look it will improve this week since I'm going to need to predict early. Will try to make a comeback in December.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Scott. Great job. I'm very happy with my 5th rank. I wonder if all those russians work together... Speaking of which: Why do you have a different score Omni and Corpse? Who screwed up?
