The following has the format of ranking. / predicted named storms / predicted hurricanes / predicted major hurricanes / combined error / and Disqus/Twitter(X) handle at time of giving prediction (possible Twitter/X account name in parentheses)       1. / 18 /  5 /  2 /  1.0671 / JustWatchingSocietyFall (@AnAmerican2773)     2. / 16 /  8 /  3 /  1.1114 / Blade (@winterice)     3. / 22 /...
