What an EPYC way to complete 2021!
We all left Zacks in the dust, as they again ended up last this quarter, just as they have done throughout 2021. While we all entered more optimistic predictions, we were all well below the stellar results this quarter. Kelvin won with his most optimistic EPS and revenue, while also climbing to the top of the full-year scoreboard (see below). Congratulations, well played! Joe came in second with the closest outlook, and secured second place on the full-year scoreboard as well. Rzborusa takes silver, and also regains third place on the full-year scoreboard, after having dropped to 4th in 2020. Neolib, who uncharacteristically missed the contest this quarter (and worryingly hasn't been seen on the message board for weeks now, which is very unlike him — I hope he is well), managed to take the top spot on the scoreboard for average entries in 2021, with his three solid entries. Well done!
Thanks to all for playing, and for your general participation on this message board! And much praise and gratitude to AMD for stellar execution! I am looking forward to another great year!

Scoreboards
Note that, unlike the main EPS Contest, which is primarily ranked by EPS, these boards are ranked by overall score, which is an equally weighted average of subscores. Scores are calculated as (1+error)^-2 per quarter and normalized for the year by sum(scores)/4. The squaring of the denominator in the score calculation is just done to spread out the scores a little. There is no explicit relative weighting of EPS and revenue error, i.e. a 1 cent error in EPS equals a $10M error in revenue.
