I've dropped to 119!

I'm bound and determined to make it to the top 100 of the year!
I need to have some good weeks now!

This should be the easiest weekend in a while unless the holdovers do something completely unexpected (which I suspect they will do anyway for the typical Derby player, especially in the case of Chicken Little :shades: ). Pride and Prejudice could be a difference maker.

Is there a reason its only asking us to predict Nov 19 - 20 th as of Weds night ?

So is this some new twist to just predict Sat and Sun now ?

And even if it is a typo im sure alot of people already made guesses for those 2 days...

grrrrr

Considering the current prediction average of each film, I don't think anybody noticed that typo.

I was 68th this week btw, with 81%ish. Its not half bad considering how much I sucked on Derailed. It helped my dreadful all-time score, I moved up from 71.7% to 72.5% in one week.

By the end of November I'll be in the top 300. Yayyyyyyyyy. :sad:

I'm out this weekend. :nonono:

I posted my predictions here, in all the games, but flat-out forgot to insert them into the actual derby. By the time I figured out, in the morning, I was too late.

I'm really looking forward to the remaining six games of the year. It should be an exciting finish to the race. I had a nice run over last year's holiday season and I hope I can repeat that.

All-time

2005

November

I did as well as I could in November and still lost ground to both Jeff and Martin. :) It is crazy how you guys elevate in crunch time.

We're predicting the 3-day gross this week, due on Wednesday night.

My best game so far, finishing at number 30 with 86.71%. Maybe there is some hope for me to have a clue for next year. :sweat:

I wonder if they'll bother updating the results with the new HP4 number.

Surprisingly, they updated the results. As far as I'm concerned, no changes happened whatsoever, you're still number #1 :shades:

Good job Zingaling!

I got my best monthly ranking ever, but it's still kind of disappointing because I was in first place last week.
