Chief bromden's prediction contest - another (short) prediction season over

#35
Wow! A lot happened tonight!
(Even beyond the Kings rare W)

First, we had a new entry for our 2 last games!
Welcome aboard Turgenev (with a debut prediction of 108-100 to the Kings)

Second, Ron (your humble servant) changed a brilliant, winner, record breaking prediction into... meh. :D
(Unbelievable! My initial prediction was 112-107. The actual game score... 112-106) :mad:

Third, by a freakish coincident chief bromden shared the same prediction with me!
(The same exact 112-107! I entered it on July 31, he made his on August 2)
Needless to say, he didn't change it.
And so he became the great winner of the night with 85! :)


Here's the summary:

Leaderboard:

The KingFans in 2nd, 3rd and 4th got the exact same score tonight (!)
and so, the tight race between them wasn't affected at all.
(The leader took a healthy leap forward from the pack, though)

In general, we had no changes of ranking whatsoever tonight.

Hi again!

We're still more than a day ahead of the next (and last) game,
but you may already view each other's (and your own) predictions.

It's nice to have a last game that matters somehow... (at least for me)

If not for the importance of the outcome (none whatsoever),
then at least for the hate of the abominable Fakers... :p
(Note that it's a very early game, BTW!)

Six of us predict a W (against the leader of the West, mind you)
probably due to a mix of home-boy emotions
and the fact that the game is quite insignificant for both teams...
The largest point margin predicted is 10 (LoungeLizard: 118-108)
The smallest point margin predicted is 5 (shared by Ron, Spike and Tetsujin)

Only one KF - Capt. Factorial - predicts a Kings loss (by four points, 108-112).

The only one of us who has not yet predicted this game AT ALL is the leader (chief bromden) :oops:
If he doesn't make his entry by 10:30am tomorrow, the throne is even more ripe for the taking...)

Here's the current prediction board for this game:

Well... we DID beat those-who-shall-not-be-named!

@chief bromden was wrong tonight, but just hung there somehow to secure the win.
@Spike, who predicted correctly more than any of us (5 games) came only 2nd
because his correct prediction scores weren't as high...
