Unless you count the horseshit robbery that was Kennedy/Romero, I'm dead on tonight. Hey Rich, if the fight is later overturned or changed to a N/C....do we change the pool results?

Yes.

Have you gone through and changed any yet? I'm sure some picks have been overturned from pissing hot.

Up next... the main event for the Flyweight title :

Demetrious Johnson (20-2-1) vs. Chris Cariaso (17-5)

No, I haven't changed any... there weren't any that I was aware of.

If you want to check on that, I'll change them if you find something.

Well dang. It's funny, but I already feel like the card is over.

Not going to go through it. Just seems silly to change something that we won't have an answer for for at least a month or more most likely. Not like any money is on the line.

Damon and MMA Fan are 5-0... Bill Waugh and Aaron are 4-1... I think everybody else has been eliminated.

If Kennedy appeals the result, and the commission overturns the fight it changes the result... that was a blatant display of cheating.

I don't know WTF is wrong with the site tonight, but I'm getting a lot of double posts... and I have the site set so double posts can't be made.

I heard Romero's stool just called out Bisping.

I've got round 1 :

10-9 Johnson

I've got round 1 :

10-9 Johnson

I'm sure fights we have predicted have been overturned. Going through to change one result means all need to be checked. 

Nice !

Johnson wins by submission in round 2 !

I don't think that's happened yet... but if the Kennedy/Romero bout gets overturned I'll go back and check them all.

Including tonight, we've only done 12 Event Pools so far... so it's not that big of a deal

It looks like the unofficial results are :

Damon and MMA Fan at 6-0... and Bill Waugh and LWOS_CHIRODOC at 5-1.

If the Kennedy/Romero result is overturned... we'll have several more players still in the game, and in a 1st place tie with 5-1... but LWOS_CHIRODOC would then be eliminated with 4-2.

I'll sort things out tonight, and pay the winners however things stand tonight... if the Kennedy/Romero result is overturned, everybody paid as winners tonight will get to keep their virtual cash and the players who might be included in a potential 1st place tie (should things change) will also be paid what ever the 1st place winners receive tonight.

If the result isn't contested, I'll throw the 1st place winners tonight an additional 1,000 Chat Cash for their perfect picks.

One fight overturned is not that big a deal on this card

I just did a quick check...

Bill Waugh would be the sole winner in 1st place with 6-0, and 5 players would be tied for 2nd place with 5-1.

So if the Kennedy/Romero result is overturned... the winners tonight get to keep their virtual cash, the other additional players tied for 2nd place will get paid whatever the 1st place winners tonight get paid... and Bill Waugh would then have to be compensated for his perfect picks, and I'll make that 2,000 should things change.

If the result isn't contested, I'll throw the 1st place winners tonight an additional 1,000 Chat Cash for their perfect picks.

So right now, it's looking like the 1st Place prize award is going to be 5,000 Chat Cash, and the 3rd Place prize award will be 1,000 Chat Cash... normally those award amounts would be split between the winners as described in the rules, but since it's only virtual cash I've been paying out the winners whatever the combined totals are in whole since it's easier to pay things out that way.

BTW guys... this virtual cash (Chat Cash) can be used to make personal wagers between members in the "Personal Wagers Thread" :

Just announced t.j vs Cruz is the next title fight.

According to the crew on the post fight show, the result of the Kennedy/Romero fight is going to be reviewed.

With that performance, it's warranted... I think we all agreed to that on the predictions show.

DFW said that issue with Romero's corner is the dirtiest trick in the book... and it was very controversial.
