Hi Steve,
Back in July, I posted a historical data analysis of the 2006-2012 Contests (those are the ones for which I was the scorekeeper). It shows the top three places for those years, but not their winning % gain. Here’s the link to that post:
Message 29016135
Here’s a Table with the 2006-2013 winners with their % gain for the year:

	Winner	Year	% Gain	
RKRW 2006 71.92%
TECHNET 2007 13.58%
ROBERT 2008 3.52%
RKRW 2009 102.63%
RKRW 2010 76.89%
MCBIO 2011 69.96%
GENE 2012 150.19%
RKRW 2013 168.17%


My July post also had other data, including the average rank of contestants who participated for four or more years. As you can see, you ranked No. 2 with RKRW being No. 1.
I once looked at how well the top Contest picks did but my data are hidden somewhere. When I’m less busy I might do another such analysis. However, I do remember that the top Contestant picks do Ok but not as well as in 2013.
Good luck in 2014!
Happy New Year!
Peace & good health,
Bulba
