As expected, Zero won today with ease. The bottom three were all pretty close in percentage, but for most of the match it was clear what order they'd finish in. The consensus predictions were HK-47 19.43%, Jak 18.34%, Lloyd Irving 20.29%, and Zero 42.04%. The average score was 46.64 points.

Best Five Picks:
1) MegatokyoEd - HK-47 20.00% - Jak 20.00% - Lloyd 20.00% - Zero 40.00% (+49.24)
1) AmazingKirby - HK-47 20.00% - Jak 20.00% - Lloyd 20.00% - Zero 40.00% (+49.24)
1) basmeyer42 - HK-47 20.00% - Jak 20.00% - Lloyd 20.00% - Zero 40.00% (+49.24)
4) Ngamer64 - HK-47 19.92% - Jak 18.70% - Lloyd 21.50% - Zero 39.88% (+49.20)
5) Seginustemple - HK-47 21.29% - Jak 18.29% - Lloyd 21.83% - Zero 38.59% (+49.19)

We have a first for this contest - a three way tie for the top prediction where all three people actually made the same pick! It has to be one of the most boring possible predictions too, a 20/20/20/40 split. MegatokyoEd, AmazingKirby, and basmeyer are the three people with at pick. Ngamer had the fourth best pick, while Seginustemple had the fifth best - both of them were within 0.05 of the top pick today.
