[Edgy MD]

Current standings.

Percentages represent the final 162-game percentage predicted at the top of the season. Records represent the final records predicted, adjusted to the current number of games played, rounded off to nearest whole numbers, so the percentages won't be an exact match for the records.

This is why I picked an outlier. If I was right, I'm a genius as opposed to being one of ten people waiting for the roulette wheel to land on their gloomily realistic number in the last week of the season.

[Edgy MD]

Definitely. Play the number that pays off big.

How is the attendance prediction contest going?

That wasn't a contest, so much as a mere poll.

[Vic Sage]

The prediction thread goes into its final series. Mets currently have 73 wins with 2 games to go.

* if they win 0, no one will have called it exactly, so it will be a 3-way tie between me (at 72) and G-Fafif and Irish (both at 74);
* If they win 1, it's a 2-way tie between G-Fafif and Irish (both at 74); and
* If they win 2, HahnSolo is the Solo winner (at 75).

May the worst team win!

Congratulations to G-Fafif and metirish on winning the "Predict the Mets" contest for 2012:
G-Fafif 74 88 .457
metirish 74 88 .457

I'll start the next one in late March.

Thank you. Irish and I just finished blowing the nonexistent cash prize on invisible Korbel that we didn't pour over each other's heads.

[Vic Sage]

1 game out of the money, gosh darn it. To think, right now i could not be drinking Korbels i don't have.

[HahnSolo]

Since I lost by one game and I need someone to blame, I'm sure Frank Frank blew a game along the way. SO I blame him. Or maybe Jeff.

With a shouting-distance finish here and a win in the attendance derby, do I win the sad-predictions all-around?

It depends on how many winning and losing IGTs you started. It could cost you some points.
