JDizzle is an awful driver. See Below... "JDizzle" - Finally, we get along on our merry way. Somewhere after that, Chad called me to complain about my driving…from 200 miles away. His call made me dig for the phone, because finding it myself was going to be far more exciting than letting Reb do it for me, which caused the car to swerve a bit. In retrospect, I guess Chad was right. At that exact moment he called, my driving was, in fact, awful. I really hate it when he’s right.

18. The winner will be from ________________. (Specific country) Answer: Germany Scoring: 3 points Sorry to crush all the hopes of those who answered "Germany", but Helmut Summersberger is in fact Austrian. That's not Germany. Close, but not enough. /edit: 13 points. I whiffed on all questions involving Green cards...

I got 24 points PLUS whatever you'll give me for this: BONUS 16. ______________ [deck] will take first place. A Gro-ish deck. May or may not look like the threshold and Dryad decks we currently have. I want at least some of those 3 points question sixteen is worth!

What happens with people who have UGR or UGW? Also the Winning Thresh deck was also UGRW, not UGW

You get 3 points for saying UWGR would win. Answering UGW or UGR will get you two points.
I'm taking the day off the Internet (after this post); but I'll finish all of the scoring tomorrow. Please be patient. Any of the mods are free to do the scoring too. Feel free to modify my first post. Otherwise, this will have to wait until tomorrow. - Bardo

Wow, six points. I suck at predicting the field. Kinda explains why I don't do so well at tournaments too...

I would like to point out to Mr. Godder that I scored 12 points, not 11. I almost predicted the number of Wastelands right... as if it matters

I would like to point out to Mr. Godder that I scored 12 points, not 11. I almost predicted the number of Wastelands right... as if it matters  Check the marking schedule again - Wastelands was +/- 2, not 4, so points were awarded for answers within the range of 10-14 inclusive. That aside, the results have been edited into the contest post, including the winner and second place. I'm sure Jacob and Matt will have a nice tussle over Matt's custom title... If you think I've made a mistake, please reply and quote the mistake and we'll fix it.
