Awesome score, Ryu.
And an AWFUL score for myself.
Pathetic.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats Ryu!
Shawman, you're having a good streak too, 4 top 20 finishes in the last 6 weeks.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks all!
It's my first win, and it was extra special because I was so sure I blew it with 9 and Gamer.
Congrats shawman too, tough game.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Congrats casey. Amazing score on a weekend when 3 openers under performed.
Well done Corpse/Proud Ryu as well.
I am pleased with my 18th place after it looked bleak early on.

Right now there are 11 movies in the derby game. Pretty weird.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Cool, it'll be the first non-10 number of films to predict in quite a while.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
11 films this week, is that a first?
We're satisfied with the 9/10th place. It could have been a little higher if we didn't change 9 or JB, but that's fine. And it doesn't seem we're so rusty afterall judging from this month. 1st game - 39, 2nd game - missed, but we had an 86%, 3rd - 27th, and 4th - 9th.
And congrats to MG Casey. I thought you had a good chance to win with the 90+ score! :-D

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
So September was just a HORRIBLE month for me. True, I didn't put 1/10th of the time in that I normally do, but still, I've gotta wake up now. I didn't even place in the top 150 any of the weeks in September Great score this week MG Casey!

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Wow. With 86ish %, I was 12th this week. I didn't expect to rank that high with several people posting better numbers than me on the board.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks Casey! Great score for you and Omni/Corpse as well! I thought for sure someone outside KJ would sneak in considering how high the derby average is; especially when Pandorum got to 2.0 and with my own prediction of 1.7, I was feeling "damn, it'd be suck to have the 11th film hurt me that bad." It's actually my 9th; still one behind Scott.
