Pampered pumpkin seeds

I have decided that it must be possible to over-pamper Atlantic Giant 
pumpkin seeds.  I wrapped several in wet paper towels, enclosed in plastic 
bags, to pre-sprout.  I planted several more in plastic pots filled with 
planting mix which was kept evenly moist and warm.  The remainder I direct 
seeded into a fairly dry spot in the garden and forgot about.  The talley so 
far is; pre-sprout: 0% germination, pots: 33% germination, and (after a good 
rain) direct seeded: 85% germination!  Has anyone else had a similar experience?
