Also, alienator and I have started talking about our picks (something me and the Nomad have already been doing for years), just sharing info, playing off each other, not synchronizing picks or anything (no fun in that is there), so if anyone wants to get in on the action let's try and figure out the easiest way to go and have us a little group duscussion.

It's up to you guys, let me know where you're at on this.

By the way, I'm berserker for this weekend, but if anyone else ever wants to be berserker, just let me know, I'll keep putting myself up until told otherwise.

Also, is anyone else on the team doing a full weekend so we can also rack up the wild card points?

@Rhino_Rocks It looks like we won by a fairly large margin. As for picking round and method finishes, if it's a bout between two lower level fighters it's usually best to pick 1st round finish if you feel it's going to be a finish. Otherwise look at the fighters records, see how they typically win/lose and then come to calculated decision.
