 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
My score is 80.88% with 4-Day weekend predictions, which is what I entered into the derby

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I will probably stick to just doing Fri-Sun games, regardless of holidays or pre-Friday releases, unless there's mass objections. Sorry for those who were expecting a 4-day on this one and didn't check.
From a predicting standpoint, it always sort of felt like double the work to predict that extra day.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I've taken an extended break due to my job workload increasing. I know it only take a few minutes/seconds even, but for some reason when I'm busy I make worse predictions.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I do not have the option to enter actuals for the last game, as I usually do.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I got 4th in my first game, I'll take it, But I need to improve my openers prediction. I was number one amongst holdovers but my crappy opener predictions (18th...) held me down.

I didn't want to underestimate a YA movie again but over-corrected myself too much (Maze Runner at $50m).

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I chatted with him briefly about it - he said it's unfortunately not an easy fix and not worth the effort.
