All-Star
I predict i wont even turn the games on or watch the score. First time in 31 years.
Games that really have no meaning. Cant even gain draft position.

Wow! A lot happened tonight!
(Even beyond the Kings rare W)
First, we had a new entry for our 2 last games!
Welcome aboard Turgenev (with a debut prediction of 108-100 to the Kings)
Second, Ron (your humble servant) changed a brilliant, winner, record breaking prediction into... meh.
(Unbelievable! My initial prediction was 112-107. The actual game score... 112-106)
Third, by a freakish coincident chief bromden shared the same prediction with me!
(The same exact 112-107! I entered it on July 31, he made his on August 2)
Needless to say, he didn't change it.
And so he became the great winner of the night with 85!
Here's the summary:
Leaderboard:
The KingFans in 2nd, 3rd and 4th got the exact same score tonight (!)
and so, the tight race between them wasn't affected at all.
(The leader took a healthy leap forward from the pack, though)
In general, we had no changes of ranking whatsoever tonight.
Daily winners:
chief bromden joined Tetsujin at the top, with 2 daily wins each.

Hi again!
We're still more than a day ahead of the next (and last) game,
but you may already view each other's (and your own) predictions.
It's nice to have a last game that matters somehow... (at least for me)
If not for the importance of the outcome (none whatsoever),
then at least for the hate of the abominable Fakers...
(Note that it's a very early game, BTW!)
Six of us predict a W (against the leader of the West, mind you)
probably due to a mix of home-boy emotions
and the fact that the game is quite insignificant for both teams...
The largest point margin predicted is 10 (LoungeLizard: 118-108)
The smallest point margin predicted is 5 (shared by Ron, Spike and Tetsujin)
Only one KF - Capt. Factorial - predicts a Kings loss (by four points, 108-112).
The only one of us who has not yet predicted this game AT ALL is the leader (chief bromden)
If he doesn't make his entry by 10:30am tomorrow, the throne is even more ripe for the taking...)

No such prediction registered.
Perhaps you tried and got a validation error?
(I can't remember what constraints I used)

Well... we DID beat those-who-shall-not-be-named!
@chief bromden was wrong tonight, but just hung there somehow to secure the win.
@Spike, who predicted correctly more than any of us (5 games) came only 2nd
