Welcome to the SASUKE Guessing Game XX Results! Hoo boy, that sure was a tournament! We set all kinds of records, not least among them KANE FREAKING KOSUGI CLEARING THE 1ST STAGE AND KEEPING HIS STREAK ALIVE. Kane and Shingo both break the 1st Stage oldest clear record which was incredible, and Yusuke Suzuki broke the oldest 2nd Stage clear record. Hayate Kajihara had the fastest non-American 1st Stage clear in SASUKE history on a 100 second course and the most time remaining by percentage since SASUKE 2. I think I need to redo some Ninja Machine ratings. Overall, despite having zero faith going into this tournament (and frankly a giant asterisk considering this course was piss easy), I have to give the results this tournament an S-tier rating.
I also want to be transparent that, as part of my scaling back of responsibilities, I plan on stepping down as host of the Guessing Game. Thankfully I have 11 months to decide for sure and I will keep everyone in the loop as to who will host next time.
Anyway, on to the results. The average was 326.98, a sharp decline from last time but I think there were a lot less scored competitors. Amazingly, the average number of 1st Stage clears that you all predicted was 23.94. Great work! What was less great work is the number of 2nd Stage clears that were predicted. I would like to remind you all that the record heading into this game was 11, and as much as I wanted to roast every single one of you who predicted a record, we actually did get a 2nd Stage clear record... although only by 1. The average that you all predicted was 14.76, meaning, again, ON AVERAGE, you all thought we would beat the record by nearly 4. Maybe Inui will use that NFT money to buy new obstacles and we can get back to more realistic clear number guesses next time.

And the WINNER of the SASUKE Guessing Game XX...
Here's a link to the results so you can keep me honest. Thanks to everyone who made this 20th Guessing Game such a memorable one with the MOST ENTRIES EVER by far! Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, and I will see you all for the Guessing Game XXI coming probably next December! (Alternatively, Kane ratings boost prayer circle so we can go back to 2 SASUKEs a year.)

Your clear numbers were actually pretty close, but you whiffed nearly the entire back end of the lineup and that did you in.

I'm pretty sure you're the first person to pick Yusuke before the 3rd Stage in years, and boy did it not pay off. Spider Walk? Seriously?

The 2nd Stage clear record, set in this tournament, is 12. Did you maybe mean to put that instead of the 21 that you guessed?

Your prediction of Dragon Glider for Ryo earned you one singular point which bumped you up a position. Nobody better tell me that the 1-point rule doesn't matter.

Double the square of your points would be 177,608 points, which would shatter the Guessing Game record. If only we could all be so lucky.

Unfortunately I can't give you credit for Yoshiyuki Yamamoto inner bullseye as the rules clearly state progress on the Final Stage matters. An outer bullseye would've moved you up 13 places.

In response to your idea that you posted, putting everyone as failing Ni Ren Soritatsu Kabe would have scored 128 points, which would have been in last by over 100 points.

Not only did you get the 1st Stage clear number bang on, you also correctly predicted Shunsuke failing the Spider Walk. That's about where your luck ended, though.

Despite making fun of Kane's decision to put a Pipe Slider fail, there actually was a Pipe Slider fail this time! Also, apparently your "youtube s***" took 12 days?

I scored these live and genuinely thought you were going to win for a while. In hindsight, thinking that about someone who picked 16 2nd Stage clears and Ryo to make the final wasn't the best decision on my part.

For a first time (and entering 90 minutes after I posted the dang game), finishing in the top 20% is quite admirable. I will let the 17 2nd Stage clears do the roasting for you.

You were very close in your 1st and 2nd Stage clear counts and were actually leading for some time, but your lack of faith in the competitors in the 3rd Stage likely cost you the win.

If you had just put Yoshiyuki Yamamoto as outer bullseye instead of inner bullseye, you would have won the Guessing Game by a significant margin, but alas, rules are rules and I can't accept it. (Also, 30/19/3/0 did not help!)

After a fairly unscientific search, I believe this is your first ever Guessing Game? Nevertheless, you played tremendously, and a quick scan of your results shows consistency across the board with lots of 10s. Congratulations!
