The prediction league for end of the year sales has now had it's results added.

I think, looking at the various accuracies, I came 3rd for accuracy behind KillerGran and Zexen_Lowe..... and third for money won behind Nordlead (of course) and Sqrl.

Here are my results.... feel free to post your own.

And the average results for all those who entered: (mainly bad because of a few confusions with the numbers, and some who just like to mess things up by posting 1 for everything)

EDIT: there are some aditional comments about that round at the end of that thread too.

anyways, since I like to talk PL stuff.

I managed a 99.98% for DS. PS3, and X360 threw me off, with the PS3 doing worse than I expected, and X360 doing better.

	44,613,243	vg$ 1,000	43,629,672	97.75%

PS3 threw me off too, and PSP I expected to have been adjusted upward but wasn't (but still wasn't too bad on it)

TWRoO, if you check out the post I linked to, you actually came in 5th in Accruacy. (bump )

Yes I noticed

I still did well though And according to your scoring method that I don't understand I was 3rd overall for the week.

Nice, rocked in Nintendo consoles. Both at 99.41%! PSP and PS3 overshot, 360 undershot like just about everyone else...

Kinda funny how I got highest winnings ratio. I couldn't bet much on this round because

• I didn't have money at the time.
• Even if I did, it'd take forever for it to return... better off investing in the smaller rounds!
  

I'm a bit surprised DS ended up only 96mil.

if you participated in the main thread, you would know what it is

anyways, it is a sum of the three types of rankings. Winnings Ratio (winnings/bets*100), Accuracy, and Winnings. You got 3rd, 5th, and 14th, so you had 22 points total. The less points the better.

Hey don't be sad.... you never made a prediction in my thread after saying you would when you asked me to advertise the league in it.

And thanks... so it is theoretically possible to get as low s 3 points... but given your grasp on the total winnings it is unlikely anyone but yourself will get that low.
