11th place. My slump has ended. I should gain ground on the yearly chart on everyone ranked higher than me except for xiayun (who ranked 3rd this week).

Wonder who won and how close I was.

16th place. Acceptable but could have been much better.

Crazy ranks for FaerieGirl (who robbed me of #1 in their 1st game).

Congrats xia... at least a few of us did well.

I'd forgotten how hard it is to predict the Memorial Day weekend box office.
Holds can be crazy, as can openings. I just now put in my first predictions for
the derby. Normally I change it 5 or more times before settling on numbers.
I'm just going to leave these alone though. It's giving me a headache.

What a score The Hungarian posted! But good to see a long time player finally getting the first win.

Congrats to Casey! And congrats to BJ for grabbing the yearly lead!

OMG, #1 for the year wk 20, first time i have ranked in the top 5 outside of march.

thanks

Don't even wanna say. GOD AWFUL. But I did nail Museum.

20th for the week. Far better than I expected.

Congrats to Casey and xiayun.

What happened, OmniCorpse?

Additional congrats to Juni, top 30 for year w/only 20 games and best average at least in top 300.

We just don't have the time, and for the past few months it's been too much work trying to work with our schedules. And it's no fun when it becomes work. It's unlikely we'll be playing the for the remainder of this year.

Oh no!! Well that's very sad. I definitely agree it's not fun when you're busy, because you know you can't do enough research or analysis to be satisfied with your predictions.

Yeah, we'd normally spend about 3 hours every thursday night (morning for Omni) doing our predictions together, and for the pat few months it hasn't even been 1 hour, not even close really.

I'm not sure about Omni, but I might play solo if I can find time around my new work schedule and everything.

the last couple of weeks have totally killed me,

totally embarrassing

Good job Scott, Ross and shawman!

And I just realized Leonardo da Vinci is back playing derby again. That's wonderful. Reminded me all the old timers.

Quite a spell off for da Vinci and da torri... wait, is there a connection there??

I see neither has forgotten how to play.

I'm still 31 for the year, so that's a bright spot.

Thanks xiayun. It makes me feel great if I can beat you at least once.

Congrats on winning the month and taking the lead for the year. You are a juggernaut at this point.

6 of 22 worse than top 200 rank

7 of 22 better than top 50 rank.

20th place this weekend, 2nd for the month, 22nd for the year with one game missed.

You would probably be way ahead for the yearly race with that one week added in

How come I'm not in the Top 10 all time again? I've played a game in the last three weeks, and I've played over 10 overall. I have about an 83% lifetime.

You're #10?

#3 for the year now, with the gap now closing even tighter between the top two players.
