I was confused by the "under $10" wording. I thought W meant "under $10" as in $9 and below not "$10 and under".

We use BO pricing, since that's what we're measuring... Sorry. This will be the last month on this exact format. I'll be tweaking the format next month. So , the best three month score will win. More info later.

FYI, some changes to the pickem come July. I'm wrapping up the first "league" of this and making it a 3 monther, so whoever has the highest combined score for April, May, and June will win that "league". Next will be a 6 monther (July-Dec) now that we have all the kinks worked out, I'm going to add something to it.

That something will be sets of long-term picks you can make that will pitt a July film against a December film or a film's entire gross against another film's entire gross. A top 5 matchup between transformers will be the first of these for example. These picks must be made when the month they are posted on are due and they only count towards the final total (not that of the month). Hopefully we can get some more guys (read people) in here as it would be much more fun with 15 or so participants.

In other news, I'm still fixing up next month's Pickem, but I promise to have it up by the 20th, which would give you at least 10 days to fill it out.

I am glad I could do my part. I got 1/3 of all the points this last weekend by knowing that Imagine That would be a turd. It is the only thing I got right though. LOL
