For the second time in a row, I'll be running our annual BWW Oscar pool. Just register on the site (we're doing it through AwardsPicks.com this year) and make your picks. Be sure to revisit them before the 7th, when the big show goes down!
Here's the link.

You have to register first, which I did, however I clicked on the link posted above again and it says "restricted" so I think we have to be invited or something?

My username there is "CapnHook"

Same thing happened to me, Capn. Just register, then find the pool under groups. It's on the first page.

My question, however, is where do we make our predictions?

Just did it and made my picks. I am more captivated over the length of show prediction than anything else.

Does anyone think there will be any upsets this year? I always love a good upset in at least one of the major categories.
