Last weekend we saw the last of the leagues coming to an end when Jaedong and Fantasy battled it out in the Batoo OSL final. Gom's new season has already begun and the other leagues will be following shortly, starting with Proleague on Saturday (don't forget to pick your Fantasy PL team by the way). This makes for a pretty clean break and the first bets for the new season have already been placed, time to wrap up last season!
I am happy to crown sAw, who has been a member on TL for just about 4.5 months, as the champion for Liquibet season 15! Barring a tie at the top the race could not have been closer, the runner-up CVXRush ended up only one single point behind sAw. Some more fun facts:
- sAw managed to get 170 out of 232 possible points, that's 73.27% and I'm pretty sure this is the highest percentage ever.
- sAw was only ranked 510th in Proleague (?? way to fail :p )
- zatic is the only staff member who got into the top 10 (I'm proud of you man!)
- what's much more depressing is that the 2nd highest ranked staff member is GTR at #122 (wtf?)
- 88 people got all four Liquibition bets right (hi F91)

congrats This is hard for me now! I am blowing..

Hey sweet. Tied for first in the MBC thingy.
And all I had to do was vote for Lux over JangBi.
Seems obvious now, but at the time it took a lot of second guessing.

It's so damn hard to win a second season ;_;
|
Yay, my first appearance in a news post
|
I think I finished at rank 50ish, which is my best finish so far. Was a good season.
|
Woo number 10 in MBC BAABAAY!
Good thing i autovote lux ^^
|
#9, PL semis killed me tho~~ gratz to the winner, next season is mine!
were the semis/finals always for 5-8 points? since this is pretty much my 1st season, and I don't find it fair at all, i mean you get most of the stuff right during whole season and get fucked by 1 final and 1 semi ^^ maybe I am just whining but having finals for 3 and semis for 2 would be better imo.
btw, anyone with 14 correct votes streak?:D
|
ROFL, 88 is a Chinese lucky number. F91 is such a baller! Only reason I made it into the top 100.

i finisshed in top 40 (i think) but I forgot to vote in 14 match 
... edit yeah 
Liquibet Rank 40 Number of Points 154 of 220 points voted on Correct Votes 90 of 141 votes made Points Percentage 70% Voting Percentage 64% Points Missed 12 Votes Missed 12
if you give 70% of 12 point missed, i would be top 10 
stupid me lol

Yo Dknight, got anything to say?

Wow I can't believe that streak in the OSL got me that high. I was sure I was out of it when I got 14 bets wrong in the OSC/group stages/tiebreakers. Too bad there wasn't a bracket contest this season!
|
goddamn neo always so good
|
Hehe, very nice, faith and assurance in F91 has brought me at least in some top.
I'm extremely disappointed with my vote on Jangbi vs Bisu Gom S2 final, that threw me 240 ranks up (from 39...). That was the turn taking, got back only to 131.
But I am still happy and proud! Even new guys (with decent talent, intuition and knowledge) can get somewhere 
Congrats to winner and my sincere respect to top 40 (cuz I almost stayed there :D)!
|
It was so close to win =_=# damnit
|
I would have made top 10 if Fantasy had pulled out the win.
|
Congrats sAw!
And yay, got top 10 GomTV :D
|
u know, it sucks that liquibet wont tell u when the season ends.. if i would know, i would take some risk and try get to #1, u know what i mean?
|
whoa 3rd in msl

hahaha, feels like chronic 2nd place-ism to me! I'm fairly consistent but just never enough to push me over the top.
I want a god damn trophy!

It's not always say to make a clean cut, because more often than not at least one league has already started their next season before all the others finish (for example this time Gom Season 3 started before the Batoo OSL finals took place). Generally, however, we try to tie the run of one Liquibet season to the run of one OSL/MSL/(PL)/... season, that should be a good enough orientation. + Show Spoiler +We might make an exception if I start liquibetting again and run on #1 for a while and end it right away just to ensure I get a trophy :p
|
Damn, went to a training camp and missed out on 5easy points and a top30 position. Only myself to blame to not looking harder after a computer with internet access I guess.
EDIT: Would be interesting with a lifetime rank with all liquibets ever counted.
|
Holy shit, i was #3 in the Teamliquid Events "Top 10"
Cool! :D
|
Wow tied for second Ongamenet, to bad i did horrible on everything else
|
wow. i was like top 15 for the first half of the season. and then i my OSL started shitting on me and i skipped a few, and i stopped caring, so i ended up like at around 200.
my MSL was amazing though. top 15 :O

Oooh congrats those at the top. I kept forgetting to vote towards the end of the season, but it was fun to get to 66th place at one point early on!
|
I would have had this if I didn't loose access to a computer for two weeks
|
7 pts from being first
|
Yay! I made it in top 10 for OGN
|
i will never be on that list since im not a lucker!
|
What does the MSL OGN liquibets mean?
