Very tight race, Werner would have come out on top had we used Brier scoring, while yours truly would be in first place had we used Ranked Probability Scoring (RPS). Needless to say, Ranked Probability Scoring is by far the best method, and truly reflects predicting skills.

MH takes this home convincingly (regardless of scoring method), embarrassing Hall of Shame for FiveThirtyEight and a couple of others.

Another win for Jack C (again, regardless of methods). MH falls from the altar of first place to the dust of the Hall of Shame.
Thanks to all for playing. I will update the master spreadsheet and write some additional summary comments on the usual Wordpress site.
