I made the same mistake as you, TWRoO. I thought I could pick which games/consoles I could bet on, but you obviously need to make a prediction on everything. I tried to get back and fix it, but no dice.

So my overall was 17%, but the average of the actual predicitions I made was 64%.

Edit: And one more thing.

Screw you Japanese market! Next time I'll make predictions on something that's actually predictable.

Hmm it seems it's more complex than I thought... I assumed it was 50% that marked whether you profited or made a loss, but Stever89 and Lingyis had the same accuracy, yet Stever lost nearly $30 and Lingyis made $8.88

Stever89 vg$280 60.55%
Lingyis vg$155 60.55%

I was just over 63%. Software killed me, especially Brawl. My hardware predictions were pretty much on the mark, which saved my rear.

58%.

I put money on every game. Now I know to concentrate large amounts on a few certain things.

I did pretty well at 4th place with 70.85% accuracy, but that only got me about 43vg$ which was ALOT less than I expected.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
