Re: MMA contest UFC 116 thread

Sorry. I'm just really excited to be in the positive for the year finally. I was sort of keeping track through the night cause at one point it was looking bad in My real money so I started falling back to this.

I think the adjusting on the fly is bullshit, just so everyone knows my opinion.

Gives a HUGE advantage to those of you who watch the fight and post on IWS at the same time. I know no one cares, but just wanted to say you guys are homos and you cheat.

After I win this event, I am taking your money and running. I am boycotting future events.

It is a pretty good advantage. I dont really post much after the first fight or two, so Im not on either. That said, I got you guys right where I want you.

LOL it was your idea to leave it open during events .

Luke, are we going to keep this open during the event? I think it would be fun when a guy goes on tilt during the event and loads up on the main event or something like that.

Considering you have adjusted on the fly in this contest I dont see how you are complaining

Yeah, but I voiced my opposition to the rule before I did it.

Also, as the the bankrolls vary now, I see Luke waiting until he sees how everyone else's bets go before making his play... I am just saying, I don't like the rule and I am boycotting future events unless it is stricken. I am still going to win this one, but you guys will never get your oppotunity to get your money back from me unless I get my baby way.

Thats fine we can change it for the next contest I have no problem with that.

I'm not paying attention to what everyone else is on I just like waiting till the last minute to put my selections in .I do the samething when I'm betting multiple sections in real life ,I always have ask Zak

Even if I was watching every single play everyone else was doing how would that be an advantage?

Re: MMA contest UFC 116 thread

Because if you have a position, in your case #2, you can see how my bet (as #3) and Ludo's bets (#1) play out to decide if you need to put any money at risk. If I lost my 20u bet, and Ludo dropped 30u that he had at risk, you would not need to bet at all to be in a commanding lead. But since I won, I would have gained a lot of ground on you had you not bet. And Ludo won too, so he would have widended the gap considerably... so you know you need to risk money to keep pace.

It is also an advantage to wait to see the plays other have made before making your plays. If you are in the lead and you bet the same fights the guy behind you bets, he can never catch you (but someone else might).

I know that you are not doing all this, just sayin... it is an advantage.


Also, you do know I am only mock indignant right?

Re: MMA contest UFC 116 thread

Why are you guys wasting your time talking about a contest I already won?
