IWS/MMR Combo Results

Buccaneer · 08-13-2003, 08:35 PM

The results came out very well, imo. For MMR, it was just a matter of navigating a minefield and hope that no one else chose a rare answer (like in the multiple answers of South Dakota, Oregon St/New Mexico St and Montana). The best example was how Carolina was choosen as a 'rare' answer but ended being the second most popular answer for #1. For the IWS, it was #2 that made the difference, picking UMiami to go along with the obvious common answers of Tampa (twice), California, North and A. Thanks all for participating.

Congrats to tucker342 and barkeep49 for winning the IWS portion and to BoneGavel for winning the MMS portion.

Knew I should picked Tampa. But my heart is with Oakland. DOH!!!

Buccaneer · 08-13-2003, 10:03 PM

bump for tucker

sterlingice · 08-14-2003, 01:08 AM

MIJB#19- do you get to add this to your list of awful results? It's nearly in the middle: as far as possible from both winning IWS and MMR?

SI

Alf · 08-14-2003, 05:38 AM

DAmn it, nearly perfect. Only I played MMR on only the 2002 playoffs question apparently (I picked Baltimore...)

tucker342 · 08-14-2003, 09:37 AM

YES!!!! I finally won

tucker342 · 08-14-2003, 09:38 AM

dola-

someone else can do the next one

JeeberD · 08-14-2003, 12:06 PM

I should have remembered that I always suck at MMR...

Eaglesfan27 · 08-14-2003, 08:17 PM

sterlingice and I answered the exact same on every question. Just an interesting observation (or so I thought)

MIJB#19 · 08-17-2003, 07:02 AM

amazing...
I figured nobody else would end up picking North or the Indianapolis Colts.
I did my best for an MMR result, but came pretty short I guess...

Sharing the middle rank with Oykib... I feel like I really suck in these games now...

I can't believe 'E' only got 2 votes!

SI

MIJB#19 · 08-17-2003, 07:30 AM

Only now, I realise I could have won the IWS version of this game, Tampa Bay (twice), Miami (Fl), California, North and A would have been the easiest IWS awnsers combination ever...
