The PPC Thread

This is the official thread for the PPC (Pink Prediction Championship) fantasy game series that I run. I have listed all the previous winners of the PPC on my profile page and will continue to update it after every PPC. If anyone wants to know any other stats or records about the PPC, just ask!

The PPC (Pink Prediction Championship) is a points-based game where up to 16 users compete. It’s free to enter but then again there are also no chips to be won but for what it’s worth, I’ll follow the winner (or winners in the event of a tie) of each PPC, along with a congratulations comment on their wall and an invite to the next PPC. 2nd and 3rd place (including any joint 2nd or 3rd places) will get a congratulations comment on their wall. The reason for this is that I don’t want anyone to want to join the game but not being able to afford to while also still having some kind of prize structure (although not much of one) but it is just a friendly competition after all! The only people to get invites will be the previous champion (or champions in the event of a tie) because I want to make this an open competition and if I invited everyone I wanted to invite then all 16 places would fill up very quickly.

Every PPC is made up of:

• 1 MMA event

• 1 Boxing event

• 1 UFC event

The idea is that this should test your general MMA knowledge (1 MMA event), your Boxing knowledge (1 Boxing event) and your mainstream MMA knowledge (1 UFC event) so that in theory, the winner of each PPC is the one with the best all-round combat sports knowledge.

There is also a PPC group that anyone is welcome to join (I’ll accept all requests. If I don’t accept you straight away, it’s because I’m either at work, sleeping or otherwise busy). This group will have a records thread that lists the full tables of every PPC and any other random threads that are created by the members. The group leaderboard will only include the MMA/Boxing/UFC events used in the PPC’s. You can find it in the Pick ‘Em Groups section.

This is designed as a friendly league and is solely for fun. Hopefully it will also act as a good introduction to the fantasy games for new users or users that have never taken part in fantasy games before while also providing an opportunity for them to meet regular fantasy players. If you are looking for a fantasy game with some fantasy chips involved, then I highly recommend the “Most Painful Picks” and “Seagalski Elimination Series” run by Steven Seagalski, the “Shark Cups” run by Rombu and the monthly boxing games and UFC games run by Mikey1903 they are well worth checking out! Ask them for more info on their respective fantasy competitions.

There will only be one PPC running at any one time otherwise I’d just confuse myself. If you have any questions, even stupid ones, just ask! Anyway, if you’re interested then head on over to the fantasy games and look for one titled “PPC” followed by a number. I hope to see you soon and good luck!

@phathazey 

Sure thing mate! I've sent you an invite to the ghost player copy of the game with the events on so you can play as a ghost player if you join that before the first event starts (Cage Warriors 156 in about 12 hours). Good luck!

Nice one mate I've joined and done my picks.

Stephen, can you please add me as a ghost player?  Thank you!

@Bellatrix 

Of course you can! I've sent you an invite to the ghost player copy of the game and good luck!

@Stephen Terry, one Fast and Furiosigu 👻 ticket,please

@Sigu 

Sorry for the late reply as I was out getting drunk last night and was working all day today so I didn't have time to invite you to the ghost player copy of the game but you asked at 5:50pm ET and the first event in the game started at 9:00pm ET so seeing as you got your request in before the first event, I'll let you join! I'll just have to add up your scores separately, the like I used to before. Good luck!

For anyone wondering, this is a great excuse to open up "The Unified Rules of the Pink Prediction Championship". In it, Rule 3b states:

"Eligibility: In order to play as a ghost player, the user must let me know before the start of the first event in the PPC. They can do this by making a comment requesting to play in the comments section of the PPC, requesting to play in the PPC Thread, requesting to play by commenting on my profile wall or otherwise contacting me directly. Anyone wishing to join as a ghost player after the first event in the PPC has stated will not be included in the game. The start time of the first event will be taken as the start time listed on Tapology so if Tapology has listed the event as starting at 8:00pm ET and your comment to request to play is time stamped at 8:01pm ET then you will not be eligible. I know that seems harsh but I’ve got to draw the line somewhere."

Congratulations to

@PriscillaMello
