 | | keypusher: Too bad Magnus didn't figure out a way to blow that, I had Anand winning in 78. |

 | | Penguincw: Grr. In Game 6 I predicted a draw and in Game 7 I predicted 1-0. :| On the bright side, I would not have scored any points even if I got the result right. |

| Nov-20-14 | | chessmoron: Woohoo, everyone scored! |
|
Nov-20-14
 | | OhioChessFan: ** Rounds 7-9 Update **
Hurray, hurray! Everyone has scored. Mankind has shown their collective superiority over The Menkey, as nobody is losing to him. However, there is one person who is only tied with him(no pressure, <chancho>). <GE> and <keypusher> are in the lead with 19 points. The 5 point deduction rule may determine the winner. 3, or fewer, rounds to go. |
|
Nov-20-14
 | | Penguincw: < chessmoron: Woohoo, everyone scored! > Yeah, but I'm the only user who hasn't scored in Bonus Ranker yet. :( |
|
| Nov-20-14 | | chessmoron: Well <Penguincw>, suck it up. Your total is greater than half of the participants. |
|
Nov-21-14
 | | keypusher: Woo hoo, tied for first with the Nostradamus of CG.com, <Golden Executive>! Er, what's the five point deduction rule? |
|
| Nov-21-14 | | chessmoron: <Game 10 Update> With today's round, 3 people tied in 1st place, <keypusher>, <Golden Executive>, and <SwitchingQuylthulg> with 19 pts. <Penguincw> has finally scored in Bonus Ranker and hopefully his whining would die down. |
|
| Nov-21-14 | | bubuli55: Maybe I should have placed a bet for game 12 as well. |
|

 | | Penguincw: < <Penguincw> has finally scored in Bonus Ranker and hopefully his whining would die down. > Sorry, I've been dealing with a lot of problems in my personal life recently. And yes, there's been a <lot> of complaining involved. |
|

 | | OhioChessFan: <Penguin> nothing is ever to be taken seriously in this forum. <bubulli> yep, I am regretting that. I think there was only one pick for a 12th game. |
|
| Nov-21-14 | | Golden Executive: <keypusher: Woo hoo, tied for first with the Nostradamus of CG.com, <Golden Executive>! Er, what's the five point deduction rule?> Don´t worry about that, you will not be affected. It´s a prophecy! |
|
| Nov-22-14 | | bubuli55: < Elvis > only one thought this is going the full distance? Let it be. He deserves it :) |
|
Nov-22-14
 | | keypusher: Since I predicted a draw in 11 and that that match would end in 11, I am sure to be wrong at least in part. It was stupid for me to predict a win for Carlsen in 10, since according to my own match score prediction it was would not be (and was not) a must win for Anand. |
|
Nov-23-14
 | | OhioChessFan: As we await the final results, a few shoutouts. Thanks, of course, to <chessmoron> who runs the contest in between his gig as a Yao Ming impersonator. Thanks to everyone for playing, especially our first timers. Thanks, sort of, to <JFQ> for browbeating....errrrrr.....kindly suggesting we use the Menkey Picker. The Menkey didn't finish last, which doesn't surprise me. I'm hoping we'll be here for Wijk Aan Zee in January. |

 | | OhioChessFan: **Final Recap**
A fine WCC victory by Carlsen. An interesting new process by <chessmoron> New people. The Menkey. A 3 way tie for the Gold Medal. Congratulations to <GE> <keyring> and <Switchamacallit> in the inaugural Moves Prediction Contest where all entries had to be received before the start of play. Congrats also to the other medal winners, <WoolyBully> <CallMeMaybe> <chessmaroon> and <Mendrys> I sort of wanted to mock <chancho> for losing to <TheMenkey> but <TheMenkey> in fact did pick a game 12 and therefore lost 5 points. Oh, it's my forum, I'll do what I want: User: haha
User: chancho User: lost
User: too
User: themonkey Thanks for playing everyone. |
