 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
By now it really would have been nice if they'd have put up a message stating there were technical problems so the game is cancelled, instead of making everyone keep checking to make sure it's not up yet to make sure they don't miss the game.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Finally scored and although belated, Congrats Scott on the win! You've finally caught Brandon for the most wins. Great accomplishment. The gap between us for the yearly race is narrowed quite a bit as well (too bad I couldn't use last week  ). Three more weeks to go.

Maybe by the end of the year, I can officially be the all time king of wins and pass Barry bon...I mean Brandon. I am also glad that last week did not count, or I would have virtually no chance of catching you.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Ummm, derby scores are up but their calc is NOT working right - look at all the 100's people got when clearly they did not get a 100.
Uh, anyway congrats Scottie, I guess?

(emailed derby about this) Wow, you're right. I have a 100% on The Men Who Stare at Goats when it should be like a 66%.

(emailed derby about this) I calculated with actual scores. Me - 86.36% fool - 84.03% I still would win, but by even a wider margin.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Scores appear to have been fixed now. (Official congrats Scottie)
They still have the wrong movies highlighted as openers. Sigh... but whatever.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Scores and ranking changed quite a bit. I lost a % point but my rank went up from 29th to 28th. Amazing score for scott considering only 15 players have 80+ scores.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks! Second win this year, and sixth overall I believe. Wish they'd place Omni 1st more often when we win though, of the six, I think he's only listed as first twice.

And we likely would've dominated the missing week as well.

Morons at BOM have Invicus as the only bloody opener.
