Between yesterday when the numbers first came up and today I already noticed some new adjustments. With the large amount of changes I hope these are correct and include the NPD December report. VGChartz seems to take week 10 as week 1 of the new year, but I think it works out fine that we've already had NPD.

Results for week 10 on adjusted numbers. SaviorX wins the final week. While it's been a two man race for the last weeks due to adjustments Pineapple takes Overall, whereas darkjonny has dropped to place 7. Mr. Average is in place 8, so at least 7 of us managed to beat the mythical statistical creature.

PS3. X360, Wii, 3DS and Vita all have a different winner, with myself benefitting from low-ball Vita predictions winning with an almost 50 point difference. Due to Vita and the large scores it's giving the rest of the competition I also come on top in Sony and Handheld. yo_john117 takes Consoles as Chark takes Nintendo. Due to adjustments some of the 10 weeks may have a different winner.

Anyway congratulations to all the winners. I hope everyone has enjoyed our little competition this year. I'll probably do an adjustment in a couple of weeks if something changes, but for now the 10 Week Countdown has ended

 

 If there's a tie, the names are ranked alphabetically.

Hey, I broke into the top ten for week 10! And tied for 15th with Alpha overall! That's pretty cool.

Congratulations to all the winners! And thanks for running the show, non-gravity.

Grr, these adjustments really hurt me...

Thanks for this, but what do the numbers mean? But 14th for week 8 and 15th for week 6 was pretty good, as it was first try



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

Thanks for making this event happen! It was fun to see how I did and others. I came to 15th place, not bad for my first year and I tied with Veknoid, which he mentioned.

For every prediction you get points for the percentage that you are off from the real number.
