It's a damn shame the thread isn't being properly maintained because 14 of those people placed an incorret bet on a fight that isn't happening.  That's three consecutive betting threads that you do that in, I'm curious to see the excuses and special rules you make up for this one.  Why don't you ever keep up with the changes in the threads you start?  It does say, "card subject to change". 


If you know about a change to the card the right thing to do is to point it out and tell us in good time. Rather you wait to the last minute or don't say anything at all. The only possible explanation for that would be that you're hoping nobody finds out (so you can get an unfair advantage) and/or you use that as an opportunity to bitch at me.

As for scores, the majority rule says that only fights that the majority of people bet on are counted.

Or you can actually pay attention to the shit you start instead of just starting a thread and hoping that it runs itself,  it was already an issue in the last two poorly run pickems.  That just shows how shittily this thread was run when you count fights that didn't even happen.

Hey I'm not perfect, sometimes there's changes to a card that I miss.

You on the other hand know about it for 2 weeks and yet didn't say anything?

That's not cool bro, not cool at all. That just shows what a selfish prick you are.

I wouldn't say sleeping. I'd say it's more like Bluto ran him off with his constant bickering and bullshit regarding every card. I can't say I blame the guy. I wouldn't be too keen to polish every thing up knowing some kid will delete it if he feels slighted.

Not sure why SC, Bluto or MS didn't feel the need to update the betting stats. Why is it that everyone nowadays wants to be a mod, but no one wants to put in any time to make a board better? If people don't want to do shit like that fine, but why go out of their way to be a moderator?

Yes, it's very hard to copy/paste the front page articles from Sherdog.  ::)



Bluto, you're the shittiest moderator on here.  ;D

I think I do a little bit more than that, but don't take my word for it... let's look at the facts, and while we're at it why not compare side by side how the "shittiest moderator" does against your moderator of choice and buddy Sincitysmallguy, shall we? Let's compare the last 24 hours:

Bluto:

Handling the betting thread as always CHECK
Calculating the result of the betting thread, posting them, ranking them and congratulating the winner CHECK
Posting the weigh-in result CHECK
Adding 29 pictures from the weigh-ins CHECK
Posting the result of UFC 87 CHECK
Posting DL links to UFC 87 + links to single fights (a total of 26 links) CHECK

Sincity:

He posted in 4 threads... That's it.  :-\

Ruined the betting thread by running Milfer off with your petty bullshit - Check.



Copy pasting everything below that from Sherdog - Check.


You do nothing. You contribute nothing more than copy/paste. You can do that without moderator. The board won't be ruined by all your other petty bullshit and you can copy/paste and act like you're doing something to your hearts content.

The masses have spoken Bluto. They want you GONE. It's funny though. Every time your moderator position is threatened, you spam a bunch of threads from Sherdog and act like you're doing something. Look down past the four threads you just made. There are maybe five started by you on the front page. You're nothing more than a failure.



I just looked. You have about five threads, and only one has more than 10 replies and 100 views. Congrats. Most people don't bother reading copy/pasted info.

Not true. The examples I gave are TYPICAL for what I post ANY weekend of the UFC on here. None of them originate from Sherdog.

Wrong again. Outta the last 5, two have have 150-200 views and 8-9 replies. The others was posted in the last 4-5 hours (one of them in the last 30 mins!)

What did Sincitysmallguy contribute with again? Please remind me!

Let's look at the overall bets, see you bring the information that makes you look good but leave out the whole thing. Bring up all the betting threads. I DESTROY YOU.. Welcome to the real world Bluto, the little land of yours that you live in, doesn't fly on this board...

I'm done with this shit.  I'm tired of perfectly good threads getting hijacked so people can show what a good moderator they are.  I'm tired of reading pages of this shit.  This isn't the place for this bullshit, so stop it.  A good moderator would know that.  Actually, a GOOD moderator would have deleted those posts already or moved this thread...

Hey I'm not perfect, sometimes  all the time there's changes to a card that I miss.

I got 6/9, and the originator of the Getbig pickems Danielson got 7/9.  Not only are you shortchanging me, you're short changing the creator of this concept on getbig that you've ruined.  It's not my responsability to babysit your sorry ass and your sorry as threads, don't write checks your punk ass can't cash.  Maybe you should actually read some of the shit you cut and paste, because you posted the weigh in results, and if you would have paid any attention to them you would have noticed that Jared Rollins was not fighting and you would have made the change on the pickem, it's just proof positive that you don't read any of the shit you steal from other web sites.

Like I said, I'm not perfect. But I would NEVER on purpose hold back info like you did.

You KNEW for almost 2 weeks that Jared Rollins was out, yet you waited to the last minute just to mock me about it and only when danielson specifically asked did you post that he was replaced.

That's just a shitty thing to do and that shows everybody what a selfish prick you are who doesn't care about either the board or the betting.

Woo-hoo! Second place! Now which mod or should I say former mod is going to step up and add up the past six or so events so we can see where we all stand? Not sure about you all, but just cuz a few of the organizers got caught napping, I never stopped betting. I know more than a handful of others who have bet every time as well, so what gives? Why did you guys just let it go?

Actually that would be 7 outta 10.

And for the record 16 outta 16 (100%) had Ben Saunders as their pick prior to the replacement of Jared Rollins and I very much doubt that any of them would've changed their bets to Ryan Thomas considering he mostly fought cans with more losses than wins (one with a 1 win 27 losses record!)

So to bitch about that fight not counting doesn't make much sense.

You did, you posted the weigh in results the day before and apparently failed to actually read what you copied and pasted.  If you had read it you would have realized the card changed.  Should someone that ignorant be in charge of betting threads?  Don't try and blame your ignorance on me, had you read the weigh in results you would have had time to make the change.  This just proves that all you do is blindly copy and paste.
