By the skin of my teeth-a silver in men's and that was about it for me. So, thanks @Moxiejan and congratulations to all of the talented predictors here! On to the Final. It's hard to believe it's almost over!

Silver in Dance, I'll take it.

 

[Moxiejan]

Just curious - were the bronze medalists in the men's division?

yes — i’ll add them! Thanks for noticing & letting me know!

 

[Joe Mendoza]

silver in dance and bronze in women, ain't bad!

 

[4everchan]

this wasn't my best week... oh well... always fun... i took some risks and they didn't pay off...

Wow, Gold overall! And I medaled in every category. That's rare. I got my predictions in on the last day too. Amazing! It helped that I got every placement correct in pairs, and the top three positions accurate in the rest of the disciplines. I almost got all placements correct in dance, had I flip-flopped 4th and 5th selections. Luck is definitely involved. I also think that this being the last GP helped by having a feel for what had been happening at the earlier GPs.

I was surprised to get everything right in pairs after seeing the pairs sp results. Every team made mistakes in the fp, and the placements shifted. I wanted Smirnova/Siianytsia to stay in medal position, but they lost too many points. So I had mixed feelings when I realized all my pairs picks matched the outcome.

But this is great. It's a nice way to celebrate my birthday today LOL!

Congratulations to all the medalists!

We did have some VERY large groups of winners in this contest, but if you didn't win a medal, don't give up! There is still the Final in two weeks. Happy predicting!

Have a question about the scoring..

I got Silver in Men ( top 3 correct) = 55 points
No correct placement in Women but got 40 points
Got top 3 in Pairs correct for 45 points
Got top 2 in Dance correct for 55 points
Is this correct or am I missing something?

 

[Joe Mendoza]

Have a question about the scoring..

if the answer results in my current medals being taken away, then I say there's nothing wrong with the scoring lol

 

[silvia]

A silver and and a bronze and a silver again! If only Gubanova…But I’m happy all the same Congratulations to all the medallists and to the scorers a big thank you

The scoring is 15 points for a correct pick, 10 points for one spot off and 5 points for 2 spots off. Your score is the total for all 5 picks, not just the ones that were correct.

So, for example, your Silver in men was achieved by having 3 correct (45 points) + either 1 other pick that was 1 spot off (10 points) OR 2 picks that were 2 spots off (5 + 5 = 10 points).

Look back at your predictions & use the 15-10-5 scoring to see how you got those points.
If something still looks wrong to you, let us know.

Thank you ! For the explanation.. I did not know about the “one/two spot off” thing.. silly me
So, celebrating my Silver in Men!!!
