Congratulations to Mike Fast, who beat out 73 other entrants in the 2009 32 Predictions contest. Mike totaled 22 points, just ahead of KakesForROY's and joof's 21 points. As promised, Mike, you've won BtB bragging rights. Please post your victory speech in the comments.
Bringing up the back of the pack was R.J. Anderson -- no wonder he's been fired from two blogs in the past year. My mother finished in a tie for 12th place with 18 points, beating out 53 of you. The wisdom-of-the-crowd's ballot had 17 points.
After the jump are the full standings, plus a list of all the questions with the correct option highlighted. There's a non-trivial chance I've made some mistakes. If so, my apologies.
If you'd like to propose some question pairs for the 2010 contest, your help is appreciated.
