Aug 26 Transformer - Round 5 Results and Final Projections

This game had 153 winners in Round 5, in a pot that 583 people contributed to. That's a 26.24% win rate (a little lower than average). As per usual in Round 5, a higher percentage of people won than in Round 4, reflecting people catching up with the lower goal.  Winners got $35.96 each (about $1 more than average). People who have won each round have now made $160.59 (about $10 more than average).  The game lost about 3.32% of players this round, for a natural attrition total of 13.63%.  Both of these numbers are a little higher than average.

Now for the fun projections. 199 people qualified for the final round (although this number may change a bit in the next few days).  That's 29.48% of the people that started the game and 34.13% of the people who were playing in Round 5. Both of these numbers are lower than average - tough game this time.

If all 199 people make 10% by the end of Round 6, a winning share should be about $151. In the games that have already ended, about 83% of the people actually make it, which would bring the winning share to about $182.  Good luck, everyone.

Love looking at your stats! I started my second Transformer this month (still working on the first one as well - the November one). I do have a question - how is it that 153 people won round 5 but 199 are qualified for the final round? I haven't been to a round 5 yet so I'm learning as I go! :)

To win Round 5 you need to reach your 10% goal. To qualify for Round 6, you only need to reach 6% loss.
