Guessing the Seeds 2011: Final Standings

Here's the final top 10:

The round-by-round scores are before applying the 100%/75%/50%/25% weighting, so that's why they don't add up to the total score.

Congratulations to this year's winner, MXS, who beat the odds and was solid throughout. He was actually not one of the people who got all four #1 seeds right in each round (that'd be Audacity of Hoops and Matt P.), but made up for that on the other lines. Particularly impressive was nailing three of the #4 seeds in round two, which is tough to do.

As you can probably guess from their consistent scoring, Charley M. and Matt P. only submitted an entry for round 1, which carried over for the rest of their contest, so their top 10 finishes are particularly impressive.

Here's how many of the 29 round 4 entries correctly predicted each team's seed:

Impressively (I guess?), Orange Krushin had both Florida as a 2 and Texas as a 4. Not surprisingly, he was also the round 4 leader, with 65 out of a possible 72 points.

The full standings are here. Thanks to everyone who entered, and we'll do this again next year.
