 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats to xiayun. What a wonderful score!!
da torri, 2001, BJ, Scott, and MGCasey did great as well.
I was 73rd for the week. I was surprised I made the top 100 at all.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks all! A good week for KJers.
I actually feel lucky as theghostrider would probably have broken the all-time record if not for the misstep on The Hangover; he nailed everything else.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
My first Top 10 finish since February. I wonder why the Corpse/Omni team decided to quit.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Casey! A week where high scores are plenty, not many familiar names at the top.

Thanks! ChipMunky also smoked the openers. Nice job! We were all randomly beaten by a random young cute girl.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Yeah I saw MG and I were 1/2 on the openers.
#65 for the week, should jump up to #25 or so in the yearly chart.
Congrats to the great KJ scores.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Scott!  Just when I got closer to you in term of # of wins, you come right back. Magnificent score on a week when we have to predict earlier.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats to Scott. Great win. I think KJ as a whole did very well as usual.
Otherwise it has been a low scoring one. I never updated my numbers after initial ones I put on monday and I still got 26th overall despite being 422nd on openers.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
And great score Levy and BJ as well!
This week will be interesting with another Wednesday deadline, two new openers, and July 4th falling on a Sat for the first time this decade.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Scott, laid out the beat down in a big way. Great Score Levy  I thought for sure that I would not make the top 50, I went from 80% with initial estimates on saturday to 86%, spectacular.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks guys. Now I have 11 wins, just one more to tie Brandon in all time wins. This is now 6th consective year with at least one win before the end of the year (I thought I lost that streak 2007, until I won a game in one of the last weeks of the year.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
KJ is really rocking right now, well done Scott/ Levy as well as a lot of others who placed really well, good job.
I missed last week cause of the idiotic deadline switch, but I'm ready for that bullshit this time so it won't make me miss.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
The Derby was incredibly generous this week. Average predictions have the top 10 tally at $196.3 m for the 3 day weekend.
