    What's the significance of the "Level" value next to everybody's name in the leaderboard?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    10 points so close dammit! Nice start to the year fingers crossed for more of the same in a couple of weeks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,583 ✭✭✭Swashbuckler


    Mid table mediocrity. I'll take that!

    As your cumulative points total increases over a year, you 'level-up' when you hit different milestones. And even though your points reset to zero at the end of the year, your level doesn't.

    There's no advantage for guys that have a higher level.

    I should be banned after that performance, in fairness though I had Noke, Soto & Condit all by decision so it could have been much different.

    I'd say a lot of people feeling burned by some of the judging last night. Table could have looked very different.

    Not a big poster, actually don't think I've ever posted in this forum but have been into MMA for years so said I'd join the league for the craic

    Next event is only a few days away guys:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057547420

    Dominic Cruz vs. TJ Dillashaw for the BW title. Main event should be a technical cracker and lots of tasty match-ups to warm the blood beforehand.

    Get your picks in and remember as always to check and double check 'em. They are not locked in until you click the save button. Also I think that there have been 1 or 2 changes in the match ups so if you saved your picks a couple weeks ago it might be worth checking them.

    Also welcome to the 2 new players (JGEP & JoeyJJ) that have joined since the previous event.

    Do you get punished if you pick the winner but get the way they won/round they won in wrong?

    You dont get punished you just dont get the points for those. Winner, round and method all score points.

    Congrats to the Winner for this event:

    Wrongway1985

    10 correct picks out of 13 is very good, so well done.

    Special mention must surely go to csallmighty as well. A very impressive 5 perfects out of 9 winning picks got him a well deserved 2nd place. Good going.

    Next event is:

    Fight Night: Johnson vs. Bader on the night/morning of the 30th/31st.

    Formalities aside, could i just request again that any players who's Pickem name is different from their boards username please let us know by posting here. It hasn't been an issue so far but it will invariably arise whereby an event/month winner's name doesn't match up to any name that features here.

    The reason being is that the league is open to anyone and we dont want some randomer just joining our league and taking our glory now do we!? :-)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,139 ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    Not sure if I need to mention as I was in the previous league but my username on that site is:

    elkatsumoto


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,781 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Decent event finally, 9/13 with two perfect, il genuinely gate cote I need to stop backing and going against him haha

    I've moved up the table a bit tonight, from near the bottom to the middle, got 8 right but only 1 perfect. Still a lot better than the last round.

    I don't have much of a posting history in this forum but I joined as well at the beginning.

    Don't forget your picks this week lads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,139 ✭✭✭✭Mr. Manager


    For anyone who made picks a while back and thought nothing more - remember, Sage got a new opponent.

    I only remembered seeing the above post to double check!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,781 ✭✭✭ASOT


    Also remember it's an early event for anyone who likes to leave it late.

    Congrats to the Winner for this event:

    Jimmiijimjim

    9 correct picks out of 13 is with 5 prefects and you bonus is class well done.

    Special mention must surely go to xtal191 as well. A very impressive 5 perfects out of 8 picks got him a well deserved 2nd place and just a few points off the top of this event very well done.

    It's fairly tight at the top one or two risky picks and top place could change often.

    Next event is:

    Fight Night: Hendricks v Thompson on the night/morning of the 6th/7th.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,640 ✭✭✭Whelo79


    That's my worst score ever! I didn't even break the 1000pt mark.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,923 ✭✭✭evad_lhorg


    My name in the league is Dowdus ðŸ‘ðŸ»


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,871 ✭✭✭Brussels Sprout
