    I personally think it's best to keep it to World Title fights (above diaper weights) unless it's a MAJOR name fight. I don't think it's really fair on the American guys to expect them to be familiar with British Champions or to have to go out of their way to research them.

    I leave it open to the floor though, if the collective disagrees, Im down for like whatever and stuff.

    Shake, Im gonna let it slide this time because you have a trust worthy face 'n all, but please don't edit your posts until the scores have been collated in future weeks. It's a SUSPICIOUS ACT, especially when you end up taking more points than anyone else.

    I had my worst week ever. I took less points than anyone. I originally had Bute by late stoppage in both my picks, but over thought it and changed it with about 3 hours to go. Away to slit my wrists.

    No worries. I edited my picks but only by adding the moliter and gamboa fights.

    At least I put my money on the Bute fight before I had a chance to over think it. Covered my losses on Solis not going 4 rounds.

    You're right, thanks. If anyone else thinks their scores are wrong tell me, Im doing them quick.

    At the end of the quarter after next weekend it'd be appreciated if those of you who didn't stick to one pst as requested could take 5 minutes to find the post numbers of each of your picks (unedited) and list them so I can go through them again, more carefully. Everyone taking 5 minutes to do that would save me an hour at least.

    Just a suggestion, maybe you can post the old totals + current week in brackets, so we can see how many points we scored during the week.

    I worte them down on a sheet, to keep count. You scored 36.5 by my count, mate. Shake scored 38.5, Illuminati 37.5. Pagan & REED were next with 34 & 31.5, respectively. I did worst with 22.5. I got my ring stung this week.

    I guess you should open a new thread for picks only at this point it has become a mess.

    Thanks for the work.

    You're right. I gave you 3.5 points for the second Bute pick when it should have been 4. Table's been fixed.

    Re: your suggestion - thats exactly why I wanted everyone to edit their original posts, tbh. It's becoming an embiggened pain in my chromulent ass by the week. Im gonna start a second thread for the 2nd quarter and insist everyone limit their picks to their first post (and ban all editing until the results have been collated, obv).

    Just keep one for the table, and make a new thread for the picks every week.

    I'll make a second thread for the 2nd quarter starting april and have all the competitors stake out a 'picks' post on the first page, even if they aren't ready to pick. We can have quarterly champions with the points reset (yearly points will still be kept), too so that anyone hwo dropped out this quarter can rejoin and still compete for top spot for the quarter at least.

    Regarding that - can I have some help with what fights should be included for april-june please? Especially from Jake, he seems very on-the-ball on such things.

    The problem with a new thread every week is that, at the end, if we wanna recheck the scores we need to find 30 odd threads. One post for picks works better, IMO, as long as we're strict about no editing after the fact.

    Are we doing this editing thing for the next quarter then, not for the rest of this one? I agree it will make things alot easier for you to tally. I didn't think of what you had to go through Hut, I'm very sorry. I'm very selfish.

    BTW TKO, Im sorry, i missed your last picks and thought you'd dropped out the league. I'll go through your posts later and re-collate 'em. If you could find the post numbers (and refrain from editing them!) that'd be beautiful.
