    Hi all,

    I've created a league on Fantasy Pick 'Em on the official UFC site. It starts this weekend for UFC 190 and we may as well keep it going from there. I'm sure a lot of you already play, but it'd be cool to get a good amount of people into the league to spice things up a bit. :)

    Anyway, the below link should bring you straight to the sign up page once you're signed in/register:

    https://ufcpickem.fightmetric.com/pools/13232

    EDIT - some users have reported an issue trying to join the league via the above link. Try this one if there's any issues - http://bit.ly/1DgnxDu

    Good luck everyone :)

    ****, give me 2 minutes lads and I'll get it sorted.

    League name is just Boards.ie if you can find it that way.

    This is the share link that they give me when I go to my league settings, can someone try click the below when they are logged in and let me know if it works? One of the lads on the Fantasy Sports Arena forum has been able to join up so it should be working now.

    Cheers:

    Anyone who has already been doing this ( me being one of those ) should probably enter a separate team cuz afaik they'd automatically go to the top of the leaderboard . Everyone should start from zero imo....

    Trying to join this. The signup appears to be a feckin nightmare for some reason. Validating my account shouldn't be this difficult.

    Done. I am atrocious with picks. Doesn't help matters that this is a pretty poor looking card.

    This is how I usually make my picks when it comes to fighters I don't know.

    Finally got through. Account activation mail took about 10 mins to arrive. Should be instant. I re-requested it about 1 min before it arrived, so had to wait another 10 mins to get in.

    Ignore my overall score as I've made picks for some events this year

    My thing is linked to ufc rewards so don't believe I can go back to 0 points

    Set up a different account with another email address maybe? I'm just after doing it there. For some reason they wouldn't accept any version of the word Hoki so I finally managed to get in with H0key :pac:

    That will get pretty annoying after a few events imo, would be fine if this pickem was a 1 event only job but if its ongoing then having to deduct 16785 from his score after every event to see where he really is just gets messy...
