[azlan]

Patience is a virtue, my young grasshoppers

 

[Bollforte94]

Wise words as always ..

 

[UpSideDownCarl]

Besides, after Japan got nocked out, there were, at a certain point, a lot of people who put down,

China,
Korea,
Germany

as their choice. So there are a lot of people for them to put in the draw to find who will get the prize.

 

[Michal_Z]

Yes and also they have to check for double posters, who posted more than one guess

 

[Vega]

would be interesting to make a statistic of the different choices all the people wrote down, but to time expensive for me, i shouldnt even be here on the forum and learn for my exams

 

[Der_Echte]

Don't sweat it everyone, it will all soon come out in the wash.

 

[UpSideDownCarl]

Don't sweat it everyone, it will all soon come out in the wash.

As long as you are not talking about those signatures. Who ever wins: don't wash that shirt.

 

[Bollforte94]

I would play with it but i wouldn't wash it. Quite interesting how it would smell after a week or two?

 

[Davott]

Yeah, someone posted after the bronze medal match I think. Not hard to guess who was going to win the final... everybody would have entered correctly.

I know I got my prediction wrong but I think its unfair people were allowed to get more information and then predict.

I am working on it

 

[Der_Echte]

As long as you are not talking about those signatures. Who ever wins: don't wash that shirt.

It is an expression meaning that it will all be sorted out.

In parentheses are nicknames, who broke rules and edited their post. I didnt count when someone edited his post right away just to fix some typing mistake.
But I only decided to make a statistic with the illegal votes as they are only 3 of them.
Ok, the statistic with all votes:
Total votes: 83
Correct vote - 1st China, 2nd Korea, 3rd Germany - 37 which is 44,58%
Other votes:
1st China, 2nd Japan, 3rd Germany - 13 votes, which is 15,66%
1st China, 2nd Germany, 3rd Japan - 11 votes, which is 13,25%
1st China, 2nd Germany, 3rd Korea - 7 votes, which is 8,43%
1st China, 2nd Japan, 3rd Korea - 5 votes, which is 6%
1st China, 2nd Korea, 3rd Japan - 4 votes, which is 4,81%
1st China, 2nd Korea, 3rd Hongkong - 2 votes, which is 2,4%

Other options got only one vote, like:
1-China, 2- Hongkong, 3-Germany; 1-Korea, 2-Germany, 3-China; 1-Germany, 2-Korea, 3-China; 1-Korea, 2-China, 3-Germany.

Interesting statistics is when I count all STUPID votes that couldnt win at the time, when entered.
That means that their vote was not possible according to the draw or already played matches.
So we got in total 22 stupid votes, which is 26,5%

So, possible winners are:

TTOski, Jefftanjs, markog99, Bollforte94, judah000, xu37, zhong97, carlos chuz, Nairod, tameen, sajid, kiwiNCFC, WiWa, Super Chopper, DKPOWA, chughtai, Mattis, firdausnazeri, Mwit_Psychoror, Fernando, Giangt, Schlaftablette, MJB, TTPRO, DustinZ, derekho, YosuaYosan, wilfred888, Vega, Michal_Z, Rhydian, syedlee, Anders, TT fan

That is 34 members out from 80 legal votes, so 42,5% of competitiors guessed right.
Compared to the vote London Olympics teams, where almost 87% voters voted for China to win, here it was 80 out from 83, which is 96,39%.
44 people guessed correct Korea as 2nd, that is 53% and
52 people guessed correct Germany as 3rd, that is 62,65%

Illegal (correct) votes were: azlan, strangeloop and UpSideDownCarl.
Its up to the admins to consider their votes as valid or not.

I hope no other statistics needed, if yes, let me know, I can take a look at it

 

[azlan]

Nicely done Michal..superb except for one thing. I voted correctly, yes I edited my post, but just to change to South Korea and it was done on the 7th, a day before the dateline hehehe South Korea = Korea Republic *ahem

Oh..Upsidedowncarl and strangeloop too edited, but it was done on the 6th, 2 days before the dateline..*ahem

 

[Michal_Z]

I know azlan.
BUT .. rules doesnt say anything about when you are going to edit your post.
What you have done is the same as if you would post another suggestion.
the rule say clearly:

- Once a post has been submitted, a member cannot edit their submission. Users who edit their submission will not be included into the prize draw.

No word about editing before the deadline..

 

[jmillsy2]

Meh, let's just let the admins decide

 

[azlan]

Oh yeah..didn't see that. Oh well...don't expect to win anyway thanx Michal.
