Nielsen Prediction Thread for 2/1

[Winn]

Before starting a weekly thread here, I wanted to make sure there was interest in it. The thread here serves a few purposes. The main one is for people to have fun. It also serves to get the prediction posts out of the main Nielsen thread.

The main difference between this thread and my AVS thread is there is not going to be a prize on here, unless you want to work out a donation pool (someone see if Penton has any more jackets, will ya?).

Predictions are due by 5PM Eastern on January 30th.

I will be keeping a separate database for this contest.

You are free to participate in both threads.

[Blu-Ray Buckeye]

Repeat of the 85:15 week.

[JAGUAR1977]

82/18

[Blu Titan]

The Best Buy HD DVD BOGO that starts on Sunday will have some effect on the numbers, so I predict 80-20.

[fattyslimslim]

79:21

[GregBlu5]

87-13.

[The Big Blue]

89 11

[Fozziwig]

Thanks Winn. Maybe Blu-ray.com can sort out some kind of prize? How many weeks does the game run before a prize (if there is one) would be awarded?

My guess for week ending January 27th: 88:12
Same as last time but I'm sure it's going to be right this time.

[NexusFX]

81 - 19

[Ispoke]

86:14

[jadedeath]

Blu Ray will be given an extra percentage point for good sales, 91:10

Logan

[york weir]

78:22

BOGO will have an effect

Ideally, I would like it to run for 15 weeks with 12 entries required to be prize eligible.

[Petra]

we need somekinda tie breaker if there's prize involved
