    He changed his Khomitsky pick to Ryder UD. He didn't outright said he was changing so either CST or I forgot to take off the initial pick.

    :goodThat's my reasoning for it, I didn't duck one match last year and paid for it when players who missed many didn't. It's very unfair to the rest of us.

    I believe I deleted it in my update, so it must have been you Pinoy.

    No but losses count against you, for example I could have a record of 100-20 and someone else could have a record of 80-0 and he'd be tied with me, when in reality he ducked 40 hard to pick outcomes, and that's not fair at all

    If you have 51% accuracy on fights others don't make a pick on, you'll have the advantage in this ranking system. I fail to see how not making a pick is some sort of an advantage.

    Because with the hard to pick matches, if you get them wrong that effects your ranking you could fall, but if someone skips that match, they won't take a loss and therefore they won't take the hit and possible fall in the rankings.

    I get it but let's say you had 40 picks on close fights others didn't have a pick on, if you get 21 correct and 19 wrong, you'll be +2 over those who didn't make the picks. I'd say making a pick with every fight would be more advantageous.

    I gave up mentally around September of last year because even though I was ahead of Drew, Robney, Drinquor, Pimp C, David B. and Kirk as far as correct predictions go, they'd missed a lot of picks and their lack of losses, not to say they'd have gotten it wrong had they picked, but.... due to missed picks that elevated them above me in the rankings, and that happened with several guys on here, on a yearly basis.

    Regardless there's should be some type of rule to dissuade players from trying to pad their records.

    Granted I played last year like a kamikaze, and with my heart as opposed to what I really thought would happen.:yep

    I'll try and pick more frequently. I'm in no way trying to pad my piiss poor record. I'm just a forgetful burnout.
