I'm sitting at 82.33%. For the 4 openers, I had 55.29% (including a zero on Fright Night) My holdovers were very solid, 95.85%, but I sucked so bad on the openers it doesn't matter much.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Well this weekend it is sure to be another mess-up at BO, still though with the estimates I am off about $1m or more on each movie..sigh Current score with the estimates is 79.51% , it is surely not going to be a huge scoring weekend but this score is terrible

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Another poor weekend for me, I was not even close to 100% mark on any of the movies. The average score though is 84.45% so I guess it is okish.....but I don't see myself in Top 100 this weekend

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
With 4-day estimates, my score would be 87.28. Should be enough for a decent rank. But everything's relative. If not for overpredicting Apollo 18 and drastically underpredicting Colombiana (I was around 70% on both), my score would be over 90%, which I would have been quite happy with.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Turks should win this weekend. Excellent predictions on the holdovers.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
So I don't know what happened but it seems I will be at 8th position(?) My scores actually went down with the actuals from 84.45% to 83.41% (though I did manage to nail 100% on The Smurfs  ). I'll be surprised if I made Top 10 with that score and am very keen to see Top 7, I think there is going to be some really big difference between me and them.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Great job Craig and xiayan. Nice call on Fighter. I was pretty nifty on the holdovers at least.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
While I don't expect this weekend to be a high scoring one, I still think we would see fair amount of 90%-92% scores. My current score with the estimates stand at okish 86.77%, as always I was really off on all the openers, holdovers were just ok....I can't believe we have three 20m+ movies and the highest I predicted was TLK at $18.4m

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
There's always someone that gets a really high score so I expect them to win the derby this week with 94-96%. Dolphin Tale screwed me over but otherwise I did very well. 92.56% with estimates.
