..I should have done this yesterday, but I forgot it following the blackhawk and reroute and everything.

Okay.. as usual, I think it's funny with some stats.

40 entries in TTP this year.

13 members had Joar as winner! 8 had Brent, 6 Peter Kaiser.

11 had Peter as second and 7 Joar. This means in total 20 member picked Joar in first or second, and 17 picked Peter for 1 and 2. All entries included Peter and Joar :) Jessie Royer were also popular, with 39 picks and 10 members had herin third.

In comparison, 9 members had Thomas, evenly spread out as 5th-10th.

If we look at ROTY, by far Tom Frode Johansen were the popular choice (17), but 7 had Mille Porsild.

Based on a weighted calculation, this is the forums result list, based on picks, I don't think we were that bad actually :)

1. Joar Leifseth Ulsom
2. Peter Kaiser
3. Jessie Royer
4. Aliy Zirkle
5. Nicolas Petit
6. Brent Sass
7. Mitch Seavey
8. Ramey Smyth
9. Travis Beals
10. Aaron Burmeister
