And after a bit of quick perl hackery, we have the results from my Oscar contest! Kyle entered twice; I took his later entry as the final one. This seems reasonable, particularly since his first entry took second place, tied with kodi and yukon_jack. Kyle, drop me an email and we'll talk about your banner.

As a whole, our collective predictive intelligence was not as good as Kyle's final set of picks, and wasn't much better than the second place finishers (depending on how you count ties). C'est la vie.

Full results after the break.

I feel a bit bad, since I honestly had forgotten that I'd submitted a vote previously to your pool. I'll drop you a line on the banner thing, though. Any specifications for size / shape / layout?

Nah, it oughta be OK to change your mind.

Lesse. 450 pixels wide, try not to go over 150 pixels high. 100 would be better.

Wow, 14 did better for me than I expected. I only feel truly stupid about two of my picks (damned penguin snuff film), which means that even if I hadn't done anything stupid, I still wouldn't have tied for first.
