-CLOSE is 8 or fewer pts difference, eg 116 - 112, 115 -113 115 - 113 or closer. CLEAR is 9 - 17 pts difference, eg below 117 - 111 on all three cards WIDE is 18 points or over ie an average of 117 -111 or above on all three cards
-If you'd like to change your pick before the fight starts, post in this thread to do so. Ideally tag me so that I don't miss it.
-2X doubles your points and 3X triples your points. Everyone starts with 10 doubles and 6 triples to use throughout the year. If you forget how many you have left, check the leaderboard in the master thread. Every player also has 3 x5 special multipliers which can be only be used on an underdog (+100 or greater) fighter.

If I could ask one of the mods to kindly sticky this thread and remove anything else Pick Em related except the 2021 masterthread, be greatly appreciated. And thanks once again for your help gentlemen.

after getting a x7 on Canelo which brought me back into it a bit I figured out how many multiples I still have left and then I had a look at the leaderboard's use of multiples - Mikey G and ruedboy are the 'dangermen' -still have loads of multiples left - but Mammoth and NC will have a few points less this week than our tireless compiler Tatabanya gave em credit for.
edit: course, ya still gotta win with them multiples and so 'points-in-the-bag' leaders SUBZER0ED ed and BLASTER are confirmed dangerous contenders
Rats, now I'm gonna have to give Mammoth and NC their money back :lol1:
Oh, although just as a heads up, Mammoth NC Uppercut per the rules we automatically assign a x2 (if any remain to the player) in the event they attempt to play a x3 when they have none remaining, so you ain't missed out altogether
If you attempt to use a multiplier that you do not have, we will use the highest available multiplier that is less than the one you tried to use. For example, if you say 2X without any 2Xs left, we will treat it as a 1X play. If you use a 3X without any 3Xs left, we will try to use a 2X. The x5 Multiplier is not subject to this rule since it's usage conditions make it inherently different to the x2 and x3 multipliers

Good catch, bro. :grr::grr:
:lol1: These questions should be answered on Tueday I reckon. Busy tomorrow but it looks like I'm home all day Tuesday so I'll try to catch up with the backlog then.
I'll have a quick look now tho... where we up to?... right, Canelo Bivol onwards.. Mammoth had 2 x3s left at that point and NC had 1
So Mammoth had a x3 on Canelo, NC had a x5 on Bivol and both of em put a x3 on Boots....
So.. the answer is no. Neither of em had a x3 left to use this week by the looks. Ha ha which also means - I suspect - that SteveM has been keeping quite a close eye and is both a diplomat and a gentleman for approaching it so tactfully. :beerchug:

NC - hope you are feeling better guy - same question for you too - did you have a x3 to use?

in the hospital still but yes sir, I threw a 3x on Benny KO mid. pi0ssed that LeMule couldn't keep himself together for 30 more seconds
No, I'm actually wasting what I managed to win in the last year or so... Typically, at the end of the year I have an active balance of a few hundreds, but 2022 is not going well after a promising start (as in the Pick Em League, haha). I have been privileging risky bets over level-headedness too often of late, this is gonna stop right now.
i'm gonna hold you to that - we're not even halfway thru 22 so it can def'. be a good year
thanks for doing the table again!
You must have money to burn or a great income losing $50/100 every week. I'm thinking thats $2,600 - $5,200 per year which is significant for me - gets me 2/3 vacations per year. Unless you are a sly old beast and holding back on all the winners you are making hustling pool or betting on baseball

Oh, well.... rolling down to the 27th place. My aim for the season (namely, finishing inside the Top 15) is getting harder to achieve weekend after weekend. And another hundred wasted in losing bets, for good measure! :sad2:
Results:
BUATSI DEC CLOSE
BENAVIDEZ KO EARLY
Standings on May 22, 2022 (points only, look for any error, blah blah blah...)

As I told to another brother here a short while ago in a PM, I must have a degree of masochistic tendency in myself... :spank:
Oh , maybe
To each their own lol
Told you , when betting always go with your first choice unless something drastic happens ( Ruiz coming into the weigh in as a sumo wrestler ) etc etc etc

I had two perfect picks before switching to this shìt at the last minute. 30 points instead of 80. What a moron!
