    Enjoy being on the same level as Raistlin.

    When that level is superiority, it hardly matters.

    Anyway, if anyone is on the same level as me, it's Rantz. I knew we'd both been good at predictions lately, so out of curiosity I looked back to check. Out of the last four Ciddies, including this one, I was the highest predictor in 3 (1 tie), and Rantz was in 2 (1 tie).

    Bow before us, peons, for we are seers of Ciddies winners.

    When I went to future-seeing classes, I was hoping to be able to predict lotto numbers or, well, anything else actually worthwhile, but it turns out it's just this.

    Out of curiosity, how many of your predictions were actually the person you voted for?

    I think I predicted like... five people that I actually voted for.

    12 were the same.

    EDIT: And I usually voted for the winner. Goddammit.

    22 of my predictions were the same as my votes. I also predicted correctly which ones I would and wouldn't win.

    13 were the same as my votes, so a fairly small number. I think I only successfully predicted four or five or so when I voted the same.

    26 of my predictions were also my votes. I knew it would be a lot. For some reason I think people think the same as me.

    I wonder what the statistics behind all of this are like. Someday I should put together a list of votes as if they were predictions and see what the average number of votes per person go towards winners.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!
