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.

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.

My first Top 10 finish since February. :D

I wonder why the Corpse/Omni team decided to quit.

Awful schedules really which didn't help the time zone difference.

I'll get involved again later on though. Omni might as well, but I don't know.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Congrats Scott, laid out the beat down in a big way. :thumbsup:
Great Score Levy :thumbsup:


:whaa: I thought for sure that I would not make the top 50, I went from 80% with initial estimates on saturday to 86%, spectacular.

I expected a lot of high scores from KJ, and we came through.

Actually, you made it pretty close. The estimates were actually in your favor, but in actuals swung back into my favor for a narrow victory. This shows that actuals can change the outcome of the game.

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.

Exactly. If they don't know how to behave, and feel OK offending others, they get their ass kicked, so they'll think next time before opening their rotten mouths.

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