 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
What if we award $5 to the top two Derby winners each week. We do it for 10 weeks - that’s $100. Chippy- what/who is funding the $25 Crazy Asian weekend challenge?

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
I can help with the funding but I'd rather that we collect the funds first before committing

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
80% is the bar for this game as a box office site. If you don't get above 80%, it's bad. Must do better, lilmac.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Half the squad got under 80%. It’s been downhill since 2010 when I predicted Toy Story 3’s OW and got it exactly right on the Mojo Derby. I’m poised for a comeback!

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Hmm... I wonder if that's related to the japanese web issues we've had lately. Though the derby has been mostly a mess for years now.

It's probably a site-wide issue, something to do with the server the site is hosted on. I got the same error message when accessing the forum two hours ago and some other times.
