For a boatload of random guesses, I'm quite pleased. It's only going to get harder as the year goes on, though.
 
So what do I win??? :D

It's nice to do well since I've been advocating some kind of software predictions for a while! Could you give a few examples of how you do the math? I'm still a little bit confused...

You predicted Bioshock at 125K. It sold 150K.

1-(150,000-125,000)/150,000 = 0.8333

Ten points per game, so 0.8333 * 10 = 8.333 points for Bioshock out of 10.

Do that for each game and sum them up.

Dang, we sucked. With this only being out of 100 points, you can basically look at this like a percentage for a school grade. Nobody got an A or B.


Thanks, sonycowboy, for the numbers! :)

I got 67.47. Thats the same as my school grades :)
