Oh no, just looking at it I'm already finding it HIGHLY entertaining! ;) I have a feeling our scores are going to be all over the place. At the same time, it seems like it's still anyone's game and it's going to come down to the final update on Sunday night. What's even crazier now is the range of spins between #5 and #10 as of today's update - only 195 spins. And the gap between #2 and #3 continues to grow, almost halfway between 2500 and 3000 spins! Shinedown has seemed to lock themselves in the Top 5 as their spins continue to increase. Beyonce is only 100 spins behind them so she can easily pass Soulja and All-American Rejects who both continue to fall. And Jesse has been getting updates all over the place - one day his bullet falls, another day it rises. And all Britney can do at this point is maintain a positive bullet for a shot at a higher peak. Kudos to whoever wins this week's predictions, but I just really want to see how this all ends up on Sunday night - this has turned to be one heck of a crazy outcome with the Top 10! LOL :o ???

Today will mark the biggest the gap between #2 and #3 will likely get--and perhaps the biggest it's ever been--at a whopping 2,748 spins!

This week is a total disaster. Only 3 people out of this week's 23 voters got a lower score than a -10, and even those three sucked (kinda). I think reidlos was the closest this week, but due to late penalty he misses out on top spot. Otherwise, he would have a -4. MEDIABASE CHART PREDICTION CONTEST ---------- 05/17/09 CHART RESULTS 1.

I edited my picks Thursday night at 10:50 PM Eastern, about 7 hours before the first Friday update was posted. I should only be penalized 7 points, not 9... which means I still managed to finish in the upper half of the predictions despite the huge penalty.

The biggest scorekillers for me were Soulja Boy (-5) and Jesse McCartney (-3).
I got lucky with correct predictions for Beyonce, All-American Rejects and Britney.
Big mistake in underestimating Shinedown's chances of being in the Top 5 (that's -2), and last but not least, the mix up between Flo Rida and Jamie Foxx (another -2).

Crazy week, can't believe I won. I give my partial faith in Shinedown the credit... after screwing up and putting them way too low for the predict June 1st contest, I just had to give them a Second Chance. (sorry--that was bad.)

I thought it was the best week ever. But I might be biased.
