UFC 113 (May 8)

Stevens and Daley

Not Daley, Shogun

dude .. I am sorry. But I just got home from work and I am about to go out.. but some weird shit happened here and I will deal with it later..

I dont think i like pick changing after the event started, even if the fights havnt happened.. but we will see.. probably put a vote up on it.

Nothing wrong with it at all, it's called being smart, fights didn't happen, u just don't want me to be Champ again.

You know what LA, that is very unnecessary and uncalled for trying to call me out like that. I have run this thing since the ESPN boards, and during that entire time I have never once given myself a title shot. Even when I was winning the ratio statistic by over 15.. I could care less who the champ is here, just as long as people participate is all that I care about.

But when you are right, you are right. Because I didnt have a rule in place for that. So I will count this one.. next event I will lock the thread before the start.

changing picks after the event starts? what? LA see's that he's lost so he switches it up? that's bogus.

not to mention I can't even tell what picks LA is making.

immediate rule implementation.
and IF we let LA get away with this garbage I demand a rematch of the immediate variety.

First off you took that way harsher than I meant it Mantis, it was more jokingly.

Now on changing picks, its not bogus or garbage, it's smart, fights hadn't happened yet, I change the picks, and it's pretty simple to tell who I picked. At the same time it's dumb, and less of an indication of picking ability, though I've done well till this point. Even my firends I was watching with were laughing at me when I'd go online to change a pick. I don''t think u should cut out changing picks completely, cause sometimes when a guy's walking out u might want to change who ur picking, or if it's a 50/50 fight. I'm fine with giving him a rematch, though I was playing on callin up Mantis cause he's deserved one but hasn't gotten it for some reason.

Changing picks after the ppv starts isnt good at all. If u see ur down a fight or 2 and u have the same winners picked in 50-50 fights u shouldnt be allowed to change them in my opion.

I agree that since there was no rule in place it should count this time but am against it in the future. My two cents

I agree with u Bobbitt.

Lock out time is a logical rule. Any edit after live fight time start to event voids picks for event, at least that's my vote. Since there was no rule for it, the exploitation as a result in UFC 113 could be allowed. Doesn't mean it has to be though. Seemed like a shady breach of man rules for something not tied to any tangible prize. but no clear rule.

Did you flip your pick to Shogun here?

Yeah I don't think picks should be changed after the PPV starts. There's a reason no one else does it.

1. Not everyone can be at there computer during an event, whether it be you are at work, went out (like a bar), out of town for mothers day, etc.
2. I have no clue what the exact time was when these fights started. So when you pick a fight at 9:44, I have no clue of anything. Like I said, I was at work. But I did know exactly when the entire event started.

I just feel like, you knew that it was coming down to that one prelim fight to decide the match. And if that wasn't good for you, you should have made some changes before the event. Rather than wait and see if you win or not. Also, it wasnt very clear to me who you were changing your picks too anyway.

And from what I am getting from the rest, is that they are also in agreement with no pick changing after the start of an event.

Capt Organic will get an immediate rematch.

I don't mind pick changes in general but in a head to head matchup it should not be allowed.

looks like we are letting the rat that is LA get away with it, I'll just have to make him pay. It's fitting that u r gay for Machida LA, cause your catching a right to the temple in the rematch.

U watn me to do this one mantis? I'm to retarded now, but could KO it manana
