Nielsen Prediction Thread for 18.04.08 (due Wednesday 16.04.08) - Blu-ray Forum

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please make your prediction with BD:HD even if you are going to predict HD DVD winning the week. Also, you are predicting the BD numbers, the HD DVD is implied. If I am confused, I will ask you for clarification if there is time before the deadline. Otherwise, you are stuck with how I read it.

The prediction period will close at 5 P.M Eastern time. That is 2 P.M. for those of you in Pacific time. This will get us ahead of the leaks. The numbers on April 18th will cover sales from April 7th-April 13th, inclusive.

HD DVD
UFO: Showtime (SPV Records)
I am Legend (Warner)

Blu-ray
The Adventure of Baron Munchausen (Sony)
The 6th Day (Sony)
Sharkwater (Warner)
Yukikaze (Bandai Visual)
Space Ace (Digital Leisure)
Water Horse: Legend of the Deep (Sony)
Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (Sony)

Ok, here is how this round is going to work. The game might end at any time. If we get up to 10 weeks, anyone who made 8 guesses will be prize eligible. The contest will automatically end at 15 weeks. Anyone with 12 guesses at that point is prize eligible. Anyone who made a full 15 guesses will have their worst guess removed for the final scoring for prizes.

There will only be prizes if people donate them. If you have an extra copy of a movie, feel free to let me know you want to add it to the prize pool.

SCORING RULES

There have been some questions about how scoring works. The score used to determine the winner of the contest is an average of all picks.

Tie breakers:

1- # of perfect picks.
2- # of picks off by 1.
3- # of picks off by 2.
4- Earliest perfect pick.
5- Earliest pick off by 1.
6- Earliest pick off by 2.
7- Coin toss.
