Re: MMA contest

It doesnt matter .I added wrong it was 6-3 for option 3 not 5-4 that I thought.


Option #3 it is

Zak needs to PM everyone his paypal address so we can all send the money to him

So are we going for a certain number of months or events?

Also, who decides the line?

We can vote on the length of the contest now . I say through the end of Aug. that'll take us through UFC 118 but it doesnt matter to me.We can go longer or shorter just everyone chime in.

Should we do it for 1,2,3 or 4 months? Everyone vote

The lines for each event usually come out on Tues before the event .I say we let them move for a day then I'll post all the lines for the upcoming event. Once I post the lines it doesnt matter if they move or not thats the line we'll use.

Re: MMA contest

I say we go with a number of events rather than a time period. Also, are we going to restrict this to just UFC events?

Personally, I'd say UFC, WEC, and Strikeforce, because we might not have enough events with just the UFC and I'm not really paying that much attention to Bellator or DREAM. But that's just me. . .

Re: MMA contest

Zak could just post his paypal here. I doubt he'd mind if someone else paid him too.

I agree with SPX. Number of events and only UFC, WEC, Strikeforce. Do we want to include Strikeforce Challengers events though? Lots of unknown guys there.

Yes strikeforce challengers have to count if TUF and UFC fight night cards count.

Re: MMA contest

OK there are 4 UFC events, 2 Strikeforce and 2 WEC events through August .So do you want to do 10 events? or more?

Re: MMA contest

I think 10 is probably good.

If it works out, great. Can do a longer one after that. But you don't want to go too long on a trial run I wouldn't think.

Re: MMA contest

I'd even say the 8 events that Luke listed should be enough. I mean, that's 8 fucking MMA events. That should be plenty. I was originally thinking 5.

Re: MMA contest

We can do the 8 ,thats fine with me.Is the 8 events fine with everyone else?

UFC 116, UFC 117 ,TUF Finale ,UFC on Versus

Strikeforce Fedor-Werdum,Strikeforce Houston

WEC: VARNER vs. SHALORUS , WEC: CRUZ vs. BENAVIDEZ

Re: MMA contest

I'm good with 8. Less events just means my lead won't be quite as impressive.

Re: MMA contest

<- The shorter the better IMO. Don't want to drag it out too long, its 10 bucks.

Re: MMA contest

I will say its pretty unlikely that anyone would get more than a 20% advantage in 5 events.

Dude, this shit's pretty much just a formality so I wouldn't get your hopes up.

We all know who's winning this shit.

If crazy people bet 20% on every fight I could see someone getting a huge lead. In 8 events there might be 90 or more fights we can bet on
