Others numbers up...

http://www.vgchartz.com/predictions/entry.php?id=2550

and DAMN!! I did amazing this week... I think my average is above 90% in accuracy (without Fire Emblem, it hasn't charted, but I sorta predicted that). Hope the numbers stay up! If only I had more money

(Yeah, I had to brag!)

well, good job then with that.

As for Fire Emblem. I thought it would chart because Path of Radiance did 60k and 70k in America and Japan on launch week. Anyways, I'll be canceling that game, so it won't affect anyone at all.

The thing is, I couldn't find sales of Fire Emblem for Others, anywhere on the site. I thought Advance Wars would be my next best game to guess off of, and nothing there either. I have NO clue how Fire Emblem does in Others...

me neither, but I would think Fire Emblem must do good if they were willing to bring it to Europe before NA.

Well, according to a rough spreadsheet I made on Excel (of which I'm very proud, 'cause I think I managed to cover every possible case, like 0% of average accuracy in one bet) I made $2034 on my $5570 bet, with a winnings ratio of 37% and an overall accuracy of 66%.

That is, if I set the sheet well and no adjustments come up. We'll see in some days.

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.

Woo, I actually made a profit in the Black Friday week, excellent! I was expecting the worst, but seems I'm not gonna suffer much in the overall standings due to this round. Not bad accuracy either, 53.85% is good
Now, next week I'll earn a lot of money...and lose a bet in the process




kirby007 on 13 December 2008

yes yes but it looks like you lost our bet shall we do another ?

Wait till the official results come in, then we will see. But why not, sure, we'll make another one. But let me have some margin, I don't wanna live all the time with an avatar of your choice
