Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread And there is also something wrong about the next game.
"Predictions are due by Predict 3-day, Fri-Sun Grosses for All Titles., Pacific Time."
It doesn't say whether we have early deadline or not.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Yay!!!
This means I have become only the second person (after Brandon) to hit the 10 clubs. My 10th victory. I only need three more to break the record in wins (which Brandon holds with 12). Could I do it by next year?
Also, thanks for the comments guys. I needed the win. That puts me closer to taking number one for year. I did some calculating, and I need to beat the Omni/Corpse team by only 2.47% to win the year. It's possible, but it won't be too easy. This weekend is one the hardest weekends to predict. Scores can range from 50 - 90%. Isn't this exciting?

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Also, I like to point this out. For hitting the 10-club, I just a free Premeire Pass, for an entire year!!! Also, the issue on the due date has been fixed (thanks to the e-mail I sent him).

This table brought to you by Excel2BB Converter. Created by Krem for World of KJ4+ game derby winners in honor of Scott's 10th win. OmniCorpse has 3 wins so Omni is on the list if you count the #1/#2 wins. I'm not sure why Omni was listed before Corpse in the 9/1/08 win - usually it's alphabetical it seems in case of a tie.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Congrats again to Omni and Corpse for winning the Year. At least I ranked number one in mulitple wins this year.
I myself got 3rd place, with a score of 84.25%, which is a personal best for me (My previous best was 84.22% in 2005). This is also my 7th consecutive year in the top ten. Not too shabby for an old timer, huh.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Nice. 4th for the week. Good way to end the year... Good finishes by foolosopher, almost famous, asalem and DIB as well who all made the Top 20. Misutaa barely missed out the december win  As for the year: KJ really rocked 2008. 1 through 5 all have KJ roots, so congrats to Omni/Corpse, Scottie, almost famous and DIB2. Asalem and BJ made the Top 10. Xia and myself would be in there as well if we hadn't missed games.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Congrats to Omni/Corpse, that was well-deserved Actually, congrats to KJ as a whole. This year was just phenomenal for us, with Scott, Almost Famous, DIB2, myself, and BJ all making the top 10. Levy, Rumple and xiayun would've been there as well, hadn't they missed games. I was 12th for the week, 6th for the month, and 8th for the year (with only a gap of 5 points separating me from #7). I can live with that

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Yeah, really, congrats to KJ as a whole.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread 15th for the week and month.
Next year I'm going to do my damnedest to play all the games for once. When I started playing years ago I was just messing around, getting middle of the road or bad scores. I thought about starting a new account, but convinced myself not to. So I have a really uphill battle to bring my total average up, but I'm encouraged by my BOM overall rank increasing by 19 this week, so I'll try to see if I can steadily improve my rank each week and see how much ground I can make up in 2009!
Congrats to Omni, Corpse, and Scottie for the 2008 trifecta!
And to all the other KJ folks as well. I will update my stats soon to show a more thorough look at the 2008 champs.

Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread Congrats Omni/Corpse for winning the year! Congrats Scott for winning 3 times this year!
And great job everyone for dominating the chart week-in and week-out. I don't think there were more than a handful of weeks where not at least one KJer finished in the top 10, and we won like half of the weeks.
