Unfortunatley BigMark has followed Quixall into retirement and its now left to myself and jammidodger to provide you with the Prediction League. A big hand for Quixall and BigMark for getting the ball rolling, and myself and jammidodger will do our best to keep it going.
As of next month there will be a few minor changes to the rules, they are highlighted in red below - the main change is the introduction of a “FIGHT OF THE MONTH” (BigMarks idea before he collected his gold watch for services rendered)
UD Points win predicted for victor = 7 points
SD or MD Points win predicted for victor = 10 points
Points win (but don't get verdict correct) = 5 points
i.e. if you went for Calzaghe to beat Jones jnr by SD and as he won by UD you would of scored 5.
Predict the correct KO round = 13 points
Predict a KO but are 1 round out = 7 points
Any other KO/stoppage but not within 1 round = 5 points
i.e if you went for Haye to beat Barrett by KO1 and as he won by KO5 you would of scored 5.
Predict the victor but do not match any of the above = 3 points
i.e. if you went for Calzaghe to beat Jones Jnr by KO and as he won by UD you would of scored 3
Each month there will be a “FIGHT OF THE MONTH” in which points will be scored double - ie if you went for Pacman to beat Hatton by 2nd rd KO you’ll now score a whoping 26 POINTS
But beware - if you predict the losing fighter in the “FIGHT OF THE MONTH” you will be docked 6 points.
A draw = 25 points
If you predict the losing fighter you are now docked 3 points.
If you fail to make a pick in any particular fight you are docked 3 points.
If a fighter retires then it is classed as a KO.
If a fight is declared a ‘no-contest’ then 0 points will be awarded.
If a fight goes to the scorecards due to an accidental clash of heads etc only 3 points will awarded for predicting the winner and of course -3 points if you picked the loser.
The divisions work on a 4 up 4 down policy with those in the bottom 4 of the divisions being relegated to the division below at the end of the month and those in the top 4 of the divisions being promoted to division above, except the P4P league where a 3 up 3 down policy will be in effect. To make it that bit harder to get on the P4P list
In an event of a tie for promotion, relegation or 1st place at the end of a month the positions will be decided by who picked the most winners that month. If it still remains a tie it will be decided by who scored the most points in the first three fights of the month and then by the first four if still tied etc.
If a player failed to play one month they stay in the division but at the bottom of the table and are relegated at the end of that month. If they failed to pick the following month they are thrown out and if want to return will do so in the bottom division. If someone has won promotion only not to pick the following month they miss out on promotion and are replaced by the next best placed player.
All new players will automatically start in the bottom division.
On the prediction thread there will be a deadline to get your predictions in, after that deadline the prediction thread will be locked.
Thanks
