CONTEST RULES:
1) Private Message all picks directly to me, LastExit34. DO NOT post your predictions in this thread. If predictions are posted in the thread, your entry will not be included in the contest.

2) Your picks should include each of the following for every fight on the card:
--Winner of the fight (worth 1 point)
--Method of winning: TKO/KO, Submission, or Decision. A fight won by DQ will count as a TKO (worth 1 point)
--Round the fight ends in: The title fight is 5 rounds, all other fights are 3 rounds (worth 1 point)

Please use the following format when submitting your picks:

Winner/Method/Round

Example:
Franklin/TKO/2
Penn/Sub/1
Babalu/Decision

There is no need to make your predictions look pretty or space them out or use a different font. All it does is make more work for me.

3) Points will be tallied as follows. Winner/Method/Round. You must have predicted the Winner correctly in order to have a chance to get the point for the Method. And you must have predicted the Winner and Method correctly in order to have a chance to get the point for the Round. Any correct choice of Decision for the Method will automatically get the point for the Round.

4) Whoever has the most points at the end of the event will be declared the UFC 61 Predictions Contest Champion.

5) If there is a tie for most points at the end of the event, the person who sent the picks to me first will be declared the winner. So get your picks in early.

6) This contest is open to all forum members, including mods and admins, with the exception of myself.

7) The results will be posted and the winner will be announced in this thread within 24 hours of the end of the event. Only one entry per person.

The winner will receive 10,000 forum points and title of UFC Predictions Champion.

DEADLINE is Saturday July 8th at 7:00pm EST. No picks will be accepted after that time.
Make sure your picks are complete when you send them to me because once you send them in, they are final. No changing any picks and any incomplete picks are not included in the contest.

Again, do not post predictions in this thread. Use this thread only if you have any questions regarding the contest...or if you want to do a little friendly trash talking.

Thank you for running the contest, LastExit.

PM sent! Nice one LastExit!

I did pretty badly for UFC60, hopefully I'll do a little better this time around!

JoeRoganismyhero · 07-05-2006, 11:17 AM

When the smoke clears it is I who will be named UFC 61 Predictions Contest Champion of the WOOOOORLD!

I wasn't going go enter this contest because I would feel bad winning two in a row. I thought for a second that I might want to give someone else a chance, but then I decided forget that.

PM Sent. Looking forward to this weekend!!

Snow Patrol · 07-05-2006, 12:11 PM

2nd last for UFC 60, I'm thinking I'm going to improve for UFC 61

Thanks again LastExit34.

Nimmy · 07-05-2006, 12:35 PM

LastExit34 · 07-05-2006, 01:50 PM

Thanks to the people who actually read the rules and used the format I asked for.

Darton72 · 07-05-2006, 05:09 PM

Man this forum rocks. I feel like im in Vegas. (trying to get some brownie points towards my total).

Nimmy · 07-05-2006, 05:21 PM

PghPens71 · 07-05-2006, 07:53 PM

I actually used my head this time around... well Mir is head and heart -- but I'm quite confident in my picks.

Pitbull · 07-05-2006, 10:51 PM

Ok gentlemen, my picks are officially in, and I am now fully prepared to lose.

Thank you.

Snow Patrol · 07-06-2006, 12:43 PM

Do we need to choose between TKO/KO for a method or include both?

eg

Swick/TKO/KO/2 or

Swick/KO/2

Just to clarify. Thanks.

Since I will be participating you need not worry about losing. Be confident at least that you will not get dead last. That spot is reserved for me.

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooh! HA.

nice, nice

WheresBobbySouthworth · 07-06-2006, 10:24 PM

I'd like to try it, but I'm not up on the undercard and my picks would be pure guesses.

For the main events, I'd have to say Ortiz TKO 2nd round, Arlovski 2nd Round TKO. I dunno. I just can't see either fight getting to the 3rd. The Arlovski fight could end in the 1st as well, but I think the fighters will be a little more cautious.

Yeah I have a feeling This match ain't gonna be pretty. I like to see it be a 3 round war but I don't think Shamrock will last that long.
