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.

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.

Thanks. Yes, I have officially tied Brandon. 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.

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%.

I calculated with actual scores.

Me - 86.36%
fool - 84.03%

I still would win, but by even a wider margin.

Scores appear to have been fixed now. (Official congrats Scottie)

They still have the wrong movies highlighted as openers. Sigh... but whatever.

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.

top 10, oh yeah!

first time with 3 top ten finishes in one month
first time with 4 or more consecutive top 15 finishes
first time with 4 or more consecutive top 25 finishes
first time with 4 or more consecutive top 50 finishes
Most consecutive top 100 finishes, currently standing at 10

I've broken every personal record posted in the past except for highest score.

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.

Is it who submits their entry first that gets the rank?

Yep, I believe so.

Congrats Omni/Corpse! We KJers have a pretty good streak going here for the past month or so. :)

I don't think they ever highlight movies that are merely new to wide release if they opened limited.
