Here is how it works. You pick 20 fighters. It lasts a year. You start with 10,000 Monopoly dollars. This game is based on the fighters and the moneylines. Whoever has the most money is the winner. I'll use this fight as an example. Jason miller is +185. Say you choose him and wager 500 dollars. that would return 925 dollars in profit  if he won and your total would be 10,925. If you choose Bisping and he is around -225 and you wagered 675 dollars on him and he won you would get 300 dollars profit and you would have 10,300. Of course if they lose you would deduct what you lost from 10,000. no draft either. Pick any 20 fighters you want and send them to me or Poir420 who is co-comish.

 

A couple of rules are you have to wager at least 500 dollars per fight. There is no max so if you think that fighter has no chance of losing put all your "fake" monopoly money on him. if you lose thats the end of the game for you. You will need some money management skills to win. You can pick as many women as you want too. If a fighter gets injured there are no replacements. So you start with 20 and might end up with 10 left if you have bad luck. I got three people interested so far and i was goig to have 10 people  play but if there is more interest i will raise the number of people on Tapology that can play. Since this is off the top of my head just ask me a question if you don't get it and want to particpate. Thank You.

It's actually wolfman's personal goal and once we get there I get to restart a new thread with all the new rules in the OP, a link to the spreadsheet, and this image once we hit 10k!

I don't think we are gonna get 1600 more posts in the next 2 weeks.  Let's just start another when the new season starts.

It took a lot of convincing just to get him to agree to this so I will get this thread to 10k and then do it, might be a month into the new season but eventually it will happen!

I hope wolfs OP doesn't scare new players off with the "pick 20 fighters" deal, I've seen a lot of people ask about it over the last 4 or so months (as I'm sure you have too) and then it has to be explained everytime. That belt is too sweet to not use haha so I will spam the **** out of this thread to help the cause

Yup we did have people posting their 20 fighters like months after lol. The new thread I make should be good to go because we have pretty much hammered out all the rule changes in these first 2 seasons now.

The only new rule I will be implementing again is the penalty for not betting on a UFC event. Just to keep it fair for the active bettors. You will have to make at least 1 bet (either straight or parlay) on every UFC event, if not your first offense is -$500 and then it doubles every time after that. So second offense is -$1000 and then -$2000 and so on.

I thought so because quite a few of us are die hard picking every event and if someone is just missing a bunch of UFC events and staying at the top it doesn't make much sense

I can't wait for the new season! I'm going to treat my bankroll like a real life bankroll this time around, gonna use a unit system and bet far more strait bets and simple prop plays and far less long shot parlays. So is the PPV on Dec. 29th the LAST card of this season or the FIRST card of the next?

UFC 155 will be the first card in the new season. Any fights we end up with odds on for the weekend of the 22nd/23rd will be the last events for this season.
