    Note on the poll: Its set to show who votes for what, so votes from non-entrants will NOT count for final decision.

    Had a bet on Dillashaw and several props in that fight. I just started classes and have been busy so I haven't had the chance to cap the prelim fights. There have been a ton of changes on this card from top to bottom. I'm voting to postpone so as to have a chance to put forth some real effort next week.

    Here's an idea: to reduce the unbelievable variance present here, we could make the tournament double-knockout, meaning that you'd need to lose twice in order to be eliminated. After one week, we'd still be left with 32 people. After that week, it would proceed as normal.

    Im just penetrating with you. Im devastated. Expected good revenue from all 3 cancelled fights, and have little else, tbh. But, Im not afraid to lose, so let's do it. Dont have near the confidence now though.

    You have an excellent point Skel. I think the tourney should be postponed for guys like Skel. If guys like Skel lose because of time constraint's then that's not a victory that anyone with honor should want.

    Fock you. Default is the sweetest victory.

    I'd take default over every single person in the tournament, and then when I won, I'd declare myself the best 'capper here and retire into the SBR hall of fame.

    Anyone who feels differently isn't competitive enough.

    He wasn't voting no to that, he was voting for something else. It's like saying "you're wrong".

    I voted before I read his post. Personally I don't mind the 2 fight cancellation's. The 2 cancellation's won't affect me one bit. However, for the sake of guys like Skel the tourney should be postponed. The more I think about it. I would not want to win because my opponent doesn't have time to change his picks. But that's just me though. I'm sure there are plenty of people on this board with no honor who would take a win anyway they could.

    I'd have to double check, but I'm pretty sure that is the sharpest thing you've ever said on SBR.

    I'm sort of impressed.

    Well that settles it for me. If my opponent Mir needs more time to change his picks then I definitely want the contest postponed. I do NOT want any excuses from Mir after I thoroughly crush him. I'm sure there are more guys like Skel & Mir who actually have lives & do not have the time to change their picks.

    Should everyone just resubmit their bets to Nunya before tomorrow night's fight?

    Yes, if you have any of the cancelled fights in your picks resubmit your changes, as soon as you can.

    For those who haven't figured it out, Ron's plays were:

    $600 Dillashaw
    $200 Soto
    $200 Birchak

    Love that you're saying this after crying like a baby that "last minute changes" were made earlier.

    Because there was no need for last minute changes. No screen shot was even necessary. You should have simply said that everyone can use all prop's available & just use opening odds for price. Moreover, anything beyond +500 could still be picked but only priced at +500. It is very disappointing that no one can pick Jackson via Submission for example because it was not listed till after your screenshot. Another example is Ferguson via submission. FYI both are going to cash & yes I got them both at the best price possible. So there is your free tip. They are both still at reasonable prices.
