The October 2023 Term of FantasySCOTUS finally came to a close. This term, Chief Justice Roberts cemented himself as the Court's center, as Justice Barrett continues to separate herself from the other Trump appointees. On the whole, this term was more predictable than some recent years. And the FantasySCOTUS prediction market did quite well. In the aggregate, our crowd predicted 83.05% of the cases accurately, up from 75% last term, and 81% the term before.
I am happy to announce that the Chief Justice is Brady Kelly. Brady has now won the competition two years in a row. Players receive ten points for each correct prediction of a Justice's vote. We recorded 59 merits cases (DIGs do not count). A perfect score would have been 5,900 points. Brady scored 4,950 points. Bill Corteal, who was the champion in OT 2021, was the runner-up with 4,750 points.
Here is the Top 10:
