    Just came back and checked this. Jaysis I done well on that card, devastated I didn't back it up with an accumulator though :P


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 11,139 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    New picks are out.

    Few questionable choices gone in there to try and pinch the lead :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,273 ✭✭✭EuskalHerria


    Quick reminder to anyone who hasn't made their picks for tomorrow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    My picks are in. Personally found this the easiest card to select since we've started the league, queue worst score to date. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,944 ✭✭✭✭scudzilla


    Apart from 3 fights this is a lottery for me, i long for the days when i used to know nearly every fighter on the card


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Picks done, fairly sure il be dethroned tonight after all my gloating. Went with ALOT of decisions tonight.

    It actually autocorrect to that haha, pretty poor card overall.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 10,462 Mod ✭✭✭✭Axwell


    Picks done, gonna be a bit of luck needed here in the early fights to get some points. This is one of those cards im in two minds about watching and will probably turn out to be great.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,549 ✭✭✭jcd5971


    have no clue except maybe horiguchi, hall and fatso to get smashed by barnett

    That was a decent week for me. 9/9 with 5 perfect (I must have forgot to do the pick for the 10th fight)

    ** Lads, just a quick note that from now on I'm going to stop including anyone who hasn't posted a prediction for 3 events in a row in the post-event tables. I know it takes a bit of time to make the predictions and people won't be around to do it every week or may forget from time to time, but 3 weeks in a row is a fair cut off point I feel. My reasons for doing it are 1) it just helps to tidy things and 2) it gives the people that are active/new people that join a greater chance to move up the table. The following haven't posted for 2 events in a row - mailburner, standman, Liamn1400, NicolasCage, That_Guy, Zero-Cool, Stiffler123 and PeeMacD.

    Cheers. :)

    Wow, you got the best score in the world for that event? Unbelievable that mate, well done. They should give a prize out for that.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 11,139 Mod ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    Yeah it's nuts. Thought they'd have given away a t-shirt or something for people that top the world leaderboard. Typical tight arse UFC eh :rolleyes: :P

    Out of curiosity how'd u get 9/9 when there was 1 draw? I haven't logged in to see how that fight was scored fantasy wise hence my question.

    The fight that went to a draw; I never made a pick. Must have panned over it or something at the time when I hit save so only made 9 picks.

    That fight mightnt have even been added when you made your picks as it was the final of the Japanese version of Tuf.

    I think I'm going heart over head for this event, so many fighters I love on the card fighting :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Don't forget to get the picks in lads. :)

    Surprised with the amount of decisions I've gone for in this one. In a way I hope my predictions aren't all accurate as if they are, it's going to be a looooong night. :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    My poorest event since we started, that. 2060 points. I changed my pick of Martins to win to Makhacev about 5 seconds before the fight started. That's twice that's happened now. Note to self - after spending time doing research and making your pick, don't change it a whim just before the fight starts. :pac:

    I'll get a table updated over the next day or two.

    Evans and Gus killed me, got 1910 otherwise though was OK. You could have pipped me if you got a bit more.

    Have been pretty consistant the last few events, dont think ive ever been worse then 6th from any event. Raging I missed the first event just to see where it would leave me at this stage.

    After me posting above saying that, my picks don't appear to have saved properly. It has me down as only making 4 random fight selections across the entire card :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,739 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Completely forgot myself and only started my picks after Cathals fight which was a pain in the hole, but people around me messed up so I think I could possibly be back on top :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Thought I was in for a torrid week but didn't do as bad as I feared. 5/10, 3 perfects and 1 bonus. A little better than mid-table for the event. Not sure when I'll get time to update the table but I'll try to do it as soon as possible, definitely before the next event starts.

    On another note I was only 00:00:04 seconds off being bang on for the total fights time of the event tiebreaker. :eek:

    I may not get a chance to do the table this week so considering we have another 2 weeks of consecutive events before the craziness of December 10th/11th/12th I'll probably wait until after the Henderson v Masvidal card before doing a big update.

    However, if anyone else wants to do the table by all means feel free. :)
