Not really glad, but i know that i threw away the win on day 13, so i cant be disappointed either. The day before i was extremely tired, so i made all my predictions in about 30s without looking up any statistics (H2H, recent results) and that cost me in the end. Maybe i should take this more seriously next time, i have to admit that prediction contests can get really exhausting. I was by far the best if you only count the last 2 days (finals), so i am somehow happy anyway and i hope that i will get the gold in Wimbledon. I think overall, due to the rain, this was a very weird prediction contest, where we often didnt have much time for predictions, so i hope that everything will be back to normal for the next prediction contest and it would be great if you could always open the predictions for the next day until about 10 pm of the previous day.

 

Edit: It would be interesting to know what happend with rybak, africaboy and gvaisakh on day 14. Were they able to post their predictions in time? A win wouldve been worthless for me if the only reason for my win wouldve been that they werent able to post their predictions in time.

Congratulations to all the medalists ! Very nice contest again ! Thanks Wanderer ! Good luck all for the next competitions !

They did, hence why that got a "0" rather then a "-". Its just like a lot of us, We went for a Bryan's and Williams win in their respective finals, and both lost out to the lower ranked opponents.

Unbelievable how small prediction contests became. Euro 2012 had more than 130 participants, and this Euro can barely reach 40

I'd like to thank LDOG for delaying the post of the provisional standing after day 6 to allow me to keep the leadership another day (I had bad prediction in day 6)

Because it was few weeks before London Games, when Totallympics reached peak. After these Games most of users leave forum or posted something very rare, with every month it was less and less, even winter games in Sochi not helped too much  And now when we have new forum, more than half of users from previous version sadly isn't registered here
