I wanted to see what sort of shape I'm in for this game, so I jotted down the roster that everyone picked along with its points to see how it compared to my roster. I always do this, so that I can look at things like the fact that SW and I both have Dancing With the Stars, 'Til Death, and RAW, but their pick of I Love New York is worth way more than my pick of CSI Miami, so they'll stay ahead of me.
I noticed that there was definitely something wrong with xwiseguyx's total, since two of their shows hadn't aired yet and American Idol, Old Christine, and Pussycat Dolls is definitely not worth 450 points after one week. Once I noticed that, I double-checked all the other totals too.

Thanks Statgirl, how do happen to 'notice' these things?
I do have the ratings, vlis... the reason for much delay in posting them recently (with the exception of final standings figures) is that my recent schedule has been hectic. I'll get to it, though - thanks for the help.

If it's any consolation, I'm working on the current ratings right now. My top priority every week, though, is to get a new game out. Then comes the standings stuff.
But if you ever need anything, just let any of us know. We'll be more than happy to lend a hand.
You Da Man Douglas!

"I think that it is beyond presumptuous to attempt predict numbers that pros who are paid multi hundreds of thousands have difficulty forecasting."
Isn't one of the aspects of this forum, in some respect, to become fantasy TV execs and forecast the success of network programs? This game is just an entertaining way of doing so.
By the way, my response to Gee: "Gee, have you ever had any fun in your life?"

Thanks, everyone! Unfortunately, I decided to 'diversify' and picked The Bachelor instead of Dancing for the next game. Maybe I'll still manage to pick some points up anyway.
Thanks, Douglas for all the work you do. (I have a feeling that if it weren't for your self-imposed handicap, you'd be creaming us all.) Thanks to TV-aholic for keeping the cup stats, and to Marc for hosting such a wonderful forum.
PIFC Cup Congrat's to out first 3-time winner, SW, but its not enough to over take Statgirl. Statgirl has a 35 point lead over tvfan300 and 29 over SW.
Douglas leapfrogs over to get into the top 5, as TV-aholic slowly looses positions.
There are still 10 games to be completed for the Winter/Spring season, so it is still anybody's game.
