wtf happened over there....

PleoMax and Co. decided to try out some new material for their new 'Blue Troll Comedy Tour' and ran straight into the Ban Hammer.

Justice was swift.

 

[Plinko]

DK would be better. I wouldn't even make it intelligible.

YES! Now THAT is classy. They should include a picture of DK ground-pounding a PS3 and 360 as well.

[jamesinclair]

From top ten to barely making the top 100 :lol

Im best with 5 week months it seems

 

[USD]

Seriously, fuck the Wii. My numbers are pretty good until you take the Wii into account. But then again, it probably screwed up most everyone else as well.

 

[Psychotext]

Yay, top 25. Getting better!

 

[lochnesssnowman]

12. lochnesssnowman - 170,000

I was 130k out for Wii - if not for that, I'd have been pretty close. Crazy Wii sales. 1st attempt though so not too bad.

 

[RevoDS]

WTF at DS and Wii? And I thought PS3 would be the biggest surprise...

27th. Not bad Even if I'm almost 200k away from the actual numbers ^^

 

[Mojovonio]

lock???

 

[michaeld]

MGS4/FF multiplatform confirmed?

 

[reilo]

Wait, what? Why did Sonycowboy lock the official thread?

 

[Eric WK]

lock???

.

 

[duk]

im juicy with anxiety for the numbers, must have

 

[Linkhero1]

for my first time 39th place isn't bad.

 

[Tideas]

when did all of the Wii come from?

 

[HylianTom]

Yikes.. I really need another prediction hobby..

 

[Raist]

11. Raist - 169,000

weeeeeeeee

not bad for my first try

 

[Oblivion]

DS: 430k
Wii: 330k
PSP: 220k
Xbox360: 180k
PS3: 120k
GBA: 93k

HOLY FUCK, WII RUINED MY PREDICTIONS! KDAFLDJ

 

[AniHawk]

Well I beat Pachter again.

Really wasn't expecting 100k a week for the Wii in July.

 

[lollerskates]

WTF at DS and Wii? And I thought PS3 would be the biggest surprise...

i think it was

 

[Haunted]

:lol the Wii killed my predictions. It's on fire.

 

[Oblivion]

What the hell? Why am I so low? Is it cause I forgot to add PS2?

 

[Cheesemeister]

What the hell? Why am I so low? Is it cause I forgot to add PS2?

PS2 and 360. You really need to follow the parser format.

 

[michaeld]

Is this thread still fair game for funny pics? The bitterness is strong in the other thread.

 

[cvxfreak]

Well I beat Pachter again.

Really wasn't expecting 100k a week for the Wii in July.

Japan's starting to become a fairly decent indicator for the Wii. Haven't Japanese sales been up since early June in general? They haven't been very low IIRC.

 

[Parl]

I predicted Wii at less than 300k. I underestimate Wii so often, in fact. Pachter beat me!

 

[Oblivion]

PS2 and 360. You really need to follow the parser format.

I did include 360, though:

Xbox360: 180k

 

[Cheesemeister]

Xbox360: 180k

Not the right format.

 

[FrankT]

Got to say I'm proud of this one;

[360] 168,299
[PS3] 157,189


Xbox 360 170k
PlayStation 3 159k


Anyhow, coming in at number 8 for my first prediction ain't too shabby either. Poor Pachter, better luck next time. I knew that was way lowball after seeing NPD Canada for the 360.

 

[besada]

Woo! Dead middle again. I got pretty close on the PS3/360, but was off by like 200,000 on the Wii:lol

Edit:Everyone but the top 30 were off by at least 200,000:lol I don't feel so bad.

 

[Frillen]

32nd place Up four places compared to last month. Not bad. I kicked Pachter's ass!

 

[RobertM]

2. RobertM - 144,000
Muahaha bitches, now I can spit Pachter in the face.

 

[sonycowboy]

Where's Donny and the weighted rankings, the 3 month, and the YTD?

 

[Colonel Mustard]

3. Colonel Mustard - 154,000

Not bad for my first time.

 

[Hyllian]

28
Oh yeah!

 

[apujanata]

82. apujanata - 223,000

I overestimate Wii in May and June, therefore I lowered my Wii expectation in July. Hence, I am double burned by Wii.

I never think it is possible that Wii can > DS. Never. At least not for July 07. It might be possible in Nov 07 or Dec 07.

[duk]

86. duk - 227,000

pachter beats me by 1k, it's all the wii's fault!

 

[donny2112]

Cheesemeister,

Can you send me the prediction listing, please? Thanks!

 

[felipeko]

38. felipeko - 203,000

getting good..

 

[laserbeam]

Pretty much Wii and DS are the only things to screw my prediction. everything else was pretty good.

Missed By:

120,000 on the DS
50,000 on Wii
36,000 on PSP
5,000 on 360
4,000 on PS3
2,000 on PS2
0 on GBA

100% correct on the GBA lol

 

[Gadfly]

I got so owned it's not even funny ([PS3] = 220K, [360] = 140K)

Forget last place because I just gave numbers for 360 and PS3. I really expected for PS3 to break 200k barrier and 360 to fall in anticipation of new HW revision and price drop.

 

[Gadfly]

I like to suggest another way to determine winners and losers:

1- Give people option to do only consoles.
2- Measure the percentage they were off and add them together.

Yes, I know we went through this a couple of months ago and there is no chance in hell people would agree with this.

 

[Square2005]

Why am I not on that list?

 

[donny2112]

Predictions closed Wednesday, August 15, @ midnight. I believe your prediction was after that. Pachter will also be excluded when I do the point totals, since he was late.

Edit:
Thanks for sending the prediction entries, Cheesemeister! I'll add in the points results tomorrow.
