As usual, I will bore you with some facts. Most picked Hanna as ROTY, 16 had her as ROTY. Amanda and Martin got 6 and 7 picks.

Almost eveyrone had Brent and Dallas on their list, 16 had Dallas as 1 and 8 as 2. Brent were more evenly distributed, 9 had him as the winner, 7 in second place, 6 on third and five in fourth. The next one in our list is Joar, only one had him on first, but several had him placed from 2-7th place. Pretty much the same with Mille, Aaron B, Peter Kaiser and Mitch, evenly distributed from 2-10.

Jessie Holmes were picked by 12, mostly in 9th place. No one had Chad or Dan.

Our "result" list based on picks are:
Dallas, Brent, Joar, Mille, Aaron B, Peter, Mitch, Michelle, Jeff, Matt Hall

...and the results are (insert whirl drum and dramatic background music)...

Gatekeeper!

Gatekeeper had 2 mushers in correct place and total six of the TTP on the list in addition to ROTY. TSFR as runner up were close, with three in correct position but fewer of the total picks. The number in parenthesis is distance to the winning time many were close, but particular libbys and tangles with 6 and 9 minutes from the winning time!

Congrats GateKeeper!!!

I feel like a brides Maid... second two years in a row.

What a wild race, the newer(ish) mushers that are up and coming will certainly make next years picks a challenge.

Again, Congrats!!

[flowerpower]

Congrats to Gate! and TSFR you are still a WINNER in my book!!! I think this is my highest ever finish and I don't think I've ever picked the winner before, let alone 1st and 2nd! Yeehaw!!

[fladogfan]

I won too...the Red Lantern
