Just guess one or more of your selected program's final 18-49 demographic before Sunday, May 4, 2008 at 7:00 PM Eastern time. Your submission will direct you to the correct discussion thread.
Here's how the game will determine the winner:
You wager ONE M$ (Berman Buck) for every increment of 1.0 rating point guess in the 18-49 demo.
Each player gets M$20.00 (twenty Berman Bucks) with which to play.
Per night, you must wager a minimum of M$5.00 and a maximum of M$20.00.
You are not required to spend all M$20.00 - you can choose to save any remaining M$ daily as part of your bank.
If you DO NOT guess the show's 18-49 demo rating exactly, your earnings will be:
(Your wager) MULTIPLIED BY (ONE MINUS (absolute value(Your Demo Guess MINUS Actual Demo)) DIVIDED BY (Your Demo Guess))
NOTE: This means you could even get back a NEGATIVE return!
If you DO guess the show's 18-49 demo rating exactly, your earnings will be:
(Your wager) MULTIPLIED BY TWO
Player with the most Berman Bucks at the end of the May Sweeps wins the game
And of course, Berman Bucks are PLAY MONEY - you won't win any actual money from this game... but you will win some pride!
And, like our regular P.I. Feedback Challenge games, no exact duplicate rosters please!

Please refer to exmalibu's ratings post for Sunday, May 4 for final 18-49 demographic ratings.
Remember: Your earnings for a show is worth double your wager, if you guessed the 18-49 demo exactly for that respective show.
Note:Dexter's rating for May 4 accounted for the entire 2-hours, not for each separate hour. For those who selected the program twice, I averaged your guesses between the 2 episodes and factored the remaining "money" back into your savings, which explains the higher savings total in your account.
