Guest Last Warrior Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 Hey, Well the big show is tonight and it has caused a lot of controversy right up until the day itself (Sylvia out of the show!). Over at SC we are running a predicition league for MMA and this is the first card we are using. For those of you that are already registered at SC you can post your thoughts over there. However for those of you not registered, why not post your predictions in this thread and I will incorporate you into the league. UFC 47 card Tito Ortiz vs. Chuck Liddell Wesley 'Cabbage' Correira vs. Andrei Arlovski Wes Sims vs. Mike Kyle Robbie Lawler vs. Nick Diaz Yves Edwards vs Hermes Franca Genki Sudo vs. Mike Brown Chris Lytle vs. Tiki Ghosn Wade Shipp vs. Johnathan Wiezorek Predicition league rules * 5 points for correct victor * 5 points for correct round of victory * 5 points for method of victory So from UFC 46, if I had gone for Lee Murray to KO Rivera in Round 2, I would have got 5 points because I got the victor correct but everything else wron Of course if you think someone will win by Judges decision then by default it will go to the distance. So for example, (UFC 46) I had Verissimo by decision. Then I would get 15 points. Five for the victor, and ten for getting the judges scorecard method. I will keep a spreadsheet of how everyone is doing and would keep a tally over the year and stuff. It would be fun. I am sure there are some problems I will encounter as this goes on but am confident it would work out well. ------------------- Remember, the event is tonight but as long as predicitions are in ebefore the event starts then it is fine.
the pinjockey Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 Here to help me with most of my picks is my trusty dartboard brought out of the closet. Chuck Liddell - 1st round KO Andrei Arlovski - 2nd round TKO Mike Kyle - 1st round DQ Nick Diaz - Decision Yves Edwards - 2nd round KO Genki Sudo - 2nd round sub Tiki Ghosn - Decision Johnathan Wiezorek - Decision
RavishingRickRudo Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 It seems a little silly to give the same weight to which round the fight will be won in with who will win.
Guest Last Warrior Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 Well it's done to help ensure we don't have too many people with the same number of points. The round does come down to guesswork pretty much I agree, but who cares? Cheers for your predicition tp, anyone else who wants to join in would be greatly appreciated.
Your Paragon of Virtue Posted April 2, 2004 Report Posted April 2, 2004 I agree with Rudo about the weighting=sillyness. Besides, I'd lose. I'll just skip the picks and go straight to the self-deprecation. OMG IM SUCH AN IDIOT~! HOW COULD I PICK CHUCK LIDDELL?!?! OF COURSE HE WAS GONNA LOSE I SHOULD BET WITH MY HEAD NEXT TIME ARGHHH~!!!!!!!!
Guest Last Warrior Posted April 3, 2004 Report Posted April 3, 2004 Go on POV, do some guesswork. Anything in before the show itself starts is fine. The preview has just started so everyone has 1/2 hour and that's it!
Guest Last Warrior Posted April 4, 2004 Report Posted April 4, 2004 Complete results of the first ever Smarks Choice MMA prediction league, after UFC 47. The dummy run seems to have gone very well and I will definately be continuing this for future events. Next scheduled leg of the league is April 25th's Pride show. Remember if you didn't get your predictions in for this one then it is not too late and anyone can join at any time. Now for the plug, feel free to come and discuss the prediction league or any aspects of MMA over at Smarks Choice.
