EWB MMA Prediction League Season One

[ACCBiggz]

If changes to the cards happen, it's your responsibility to edit your predictions. Any editing after the deadline for the card will nullify your entire predictions.

First post Fitzy.

Just a note to everyone: I take the fights from MMA Weekly's rumor section (they normally only put confirmed and/or fights that are almost certain to happen, so it's not really a loose rumor. But anything that isn't listed and has been confirmed elsewhere, it's your responsibility to put that on your card.

[Thrilla]

That's a bit of a cop out

That's a bit of a cop out

Not really. You have things like injuries, short notice replacements, and Japanese promotions who sometimes don't release a full card until 2 days before the event. It's not hard to check a card on any of the major websites. I've missed fights too, had Fitzy not posted that I probably would have forgot and left them out. I wouldn't have gotten points and he would have if he got them right. I've done a fairly good job of updating the cards when I do them at GDS and I'll do the same here, but in case there is a circumstance where I miss a fight, and someone predicts a fight that does happen, I'm not going to penalize them for picking it. It only helps, it doesn't hurt.
