    Want to start UFC Contest no option

    i wanted to start a UFC contest for fun with the sub forum , theres a bunch of us that would sign up im sure..
    i went to start the contest up and UFC betting isnt even in the options?? could we change this at all, we have UFC odds in the sportsbook so im sure it wouldnt be hard to add the option in for contests...

    cheers

    I wanted to organize a 4 month pick em league 3 times per year. $50-$100 buy in where you pick each and every UFC fight on every card. Always thought it would be cool to do that and get 20+ people to make a nice pot.

    honestly never heard of it before or i woulda joined in....
    would be cool to join a $ league

    the one i was thinking here would just be for fun do a trial run like 50-100 betpoints entry and see how many people get in for a 3 month contest or something like that... if it turns out well then we can make something bigger or whatever people are thinking

    Fire, sorry for hijacking your thread, buddy. But if you guys are serious about doing a picks league, sign in. I'd like to do $100 and it'll run for 4 months. I will update records after every single event and I'll probably set up an email for it to submit your picks, or possibly even a website if this thing gets decently big.

    If I decide to go the email route, when I make my picks I will send them out to everybody, so we're aware there is absolutely no cheating involved.

    Please get back to me on this... Think it's pretty safe to send out my email on here?

    i was just planning on making one here for fun with some points see how it goes then continue on from there ...
    like hugo said toutmaster and stuff like that would be my contest choice if i was gonna do anything , i wouldnt just send $100 to some random guy ive never talked to and hope he doesnt scam everybody lol

    like I said, let's use common sense...no way in hell I'd send that guy $100. I'd just as well use a point buyin on here or have some sort of private contest at KINGS or DUEL.

    The only people that I would even CONSIDER sending money to in the MMA community are you 2, JIBBY, Hugo, yisman and BIGDAY.

    reserve me a spot in the FF league as well please and thank you

    please consider making it a PPR league this year...I made a huge error by not double checking the league settings before the draft last year and picked a couple of WRs I would have never picked otherwise.

    Not a Huge fan of the Fantasy Scoring systems...not that I can't adjust....just not as fun hoping for someone to hit someone 300 times rather than a big 1st round KO lol....surprised there is no easy medium for this...maybe we are on to something here lol......

    It's more the mma scoring system than fantasy.

    I once scored like a 1000 points when my previous high total was about 300. It was because this guy had zero chance against askren, asken would just take him down and slap him around from mount for 5 rounds.

    Sig strikes are subjective and that makes for bad fantasy scoring.

    Should just be like 5-6 for a finish, 3 for a ud, and 2 for a sd/mj.

    It can be sent to one of you other homo's that people know. I'll gladly take some help on it. I don't want nor need any of your guy's cash.

    Also, I don't ever recall saying i'd collect everyone's money lol
