Congrats Omni/Corpse! :)

Quited amazed to see another top 10 finish even without getting anything from the 8.0 prediction on MacGruber.

Post Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks. Surprised we won this weekend. 2nd of the Year, and... I think 8th Overall, but I'll need to double check. Too bad the first three weeks of May were bad for us.

We would have score better if I didn't talk Omni into going above 6 (decided on 6.4) on MacGruber. He was wanting to go with 5m or under because tracking was atrocious (14 vs 8) and we never heard of it (though we usually never hear of half the openers anyway). It's usually, "Have you heard of this before?" "Nope". And I was worried with going under 6. But with that kind of tracking, I shouldn't have thought over 6. Silly me.

Congrats to proud ryu, xiayun, and rumpel on their Top 10's. And to Scottie for his solid ranking, too.

Congrats peeps. Awesome score for a shitty weekend. My score sucked. I was completely off on both openers and I really expected Dragon would get a slight boost from Shrek, but there was nothing to boost from in the end.

Grats to OmniCorpse.

Good to see Leonardo da Vinci back. Interesting game history.

Finally broke my recent pattern of doing well only every 3 weeks.

It was a very pleasant surprise. 9th win overall, I think.

Congrats to BJ on his Top 5 ranking this weekend, also.
