    I can help with the calculations of picks/scores, but will need to keep the poll because it's easier to download and automate the calculations week to week. The tedious part will be going through the tread for the multipliers and edited picks.

      I think if you are starting with a whole new crew and with new rules, you might want to scrap everything that has happened so far and start fresh.

      Especially if there is still talk of including a money option.

That would be less fun but if it is all anyone has time for would be better than nothing.
        im about to make the threads for the other fights like kovalev etc.....

          Bit late starting a Nery - Yamanaka RBR aincha? Yamanaka already got knocked out, man..

          EDIT: But thanks for the offer, man. I think we'll aim to keep your RBRs and the Pick Em seperate for the time being - even if we can keep the Pick Em going it's probably gonna be fairly selective - my thinking is just fairly major title fights or those where there is significant demand... in general I don't think we'll start off with more than one - or in exceptional circumstances 2 fights a week, though maybe we could expand it once we've got things running properly.

              I realized that only people who are serious type out their picks. A lot seem to just vote in the poll because they see a poll to vote on. They are not really into the game. It's easier to tabulate when they type their picks and it also has the time that they made their picks.

                      I believe that's what made Brometheus lose his heart for managing the game. He looked at the polls and saw a lot of votes to calculate. Fewer folks type out their picks and they are usually the serious participants.
