The Derby is tough and can't be won on skill alone. Sometimes lady luck is nowhere to be found. Nice to have another member on here!

Congrats!
I'm still in TOP 100 for a fourth week in a row. For now I'll be very pleased if I continue to be there.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Outstanding job, Ryu & xiayun! I'm sure there will be other KJers at the top once the final scores are up. They are making us predict Grown Ups one more time....will this film ever leave???

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
The derby average is quite high this week at over 89%. It'll be hard to rank high this week. Top 100 is looking iffy for me.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
We'll most likely be out of the top 200 this week, we operpredicted pretty much everything by about 10/15%...and the damn risk on GU didn't pay off. I don't like safe predictions, but they seem much more profitable.
