2013 IWS Contest Thread

[SPX]

So isn't it about time we got a new contest going?

Who's interested? What does everyone want the rules/format to be? What organizations should we include (there's no SF now so should we include Bellator?). How many events? Who wants to run it?

I'd say let's get this shit together so we can make the MM/Dodson event the first one.

[Ludo]

I really liked the one Svino came up with last year using the non juiced percentages for a maximum of 1u gain.

[poopoo333]

Gay

[SPX]

I can't say I really remember Svino's idea.

Personally I'm fine with the format we used for the first contest . . . even though I can't remember all the specifics.

Is anyone even interested or is it just me and Ludo?

[poopoo333]

I am interested but I just like basic picks and shit. Svino's was fine though I don't care, I am an addict. The original one was having a bankroll and having a cap on each bet I think...that was cool too

[SPX]

Well I think we should probably first figure out who all is interested in then take a vote on whether we want to stick with the original formula or do something different.

Looks like you and I are cool with the original way of doing things and Ludo wants to try something new.

So. . . Whoever wants to play, speak up.

[Ludo]

I don't really mind either way, but Svino's idea was interesting to Me. It kind of put us all on an even playing field. All I know is I don't have the time to run it this time around with the new job. I don't think I've seen a prelim fight live since November.

[SPX]

So how many people do we need to get this party started? What's the minimum?

[SPX]

Also, I have an idea for a side pot. Let's all throw in an extra $5 or $10 and run a side contest where we all pick every fight on the card. Each win gives you 1 point. Who ever has the most points at the end of the contest gets the money in the side pot.

[Mr. IWS]

In, do whatever you want.

[trotterz]

In, do whatever you want.

Same here

[SPX]

Cool, so that's five so far:

Me
PP
Ludo
Zak
Trotterz

Svino? Luke? Edmann? Scientist?

And what's everyone think of the side contest idea?

[MMA_scientist]

i'll play. I have no preference on the rules, I will do whatever.

[SPX]

That makes six.

[Thewisemann]

im in for whatever

[SPX]

Boom. 7.

[poopoo333]

What about sideloaded?

[SPX]

No.

[SPX]

So who's going to volunteer to run this thing?

[SPX]

So are we doing this or what?

[Ludo]

So who's going to volunteer to run this thing?

I nominate Soren Patrick Xavier.

[SPX]

Y'all don't want me doing it. You know I'll fuck up the totals when I add everything up.

[Ludo]

Y'all don't want me doing it. You know I'll fuck up the totals when I add everything up.

I forgot you're a math tard. I nominate Svino.

[SPX]

Me too.

[Svino]

Hmm. I'm kinda busy right now. Don't know that I want to run it, though I might participate.

If no one wants to "run" it, what would people think of doing a tournament using the website that Poopoo did for the one he ran?

[SPX]

Obviously we're going to have to figure something out here so I guess we can forget about making tomorrow's event our first one.

[Mr. IWS]

cant we use that site poopoo uses?

[MMA_scientist]

I am not using that other site. Too much work.

[Luke]

I nominate sideloaded

[SPX]

I am not using that other site. Too much work.

Srs? What do you mean too much work?

[poopoo333]

Standings? Who is winning after last night?

[Luke]

Standings? Who is winning after last night?
