The 2012 MVP of Tapology Discussion thread (updated rosters)

as much as I want to see how big the other thread will get throughout the year, I think we needed a cleaner OP for newer members to be able to tell what is going on, so for all future discussion please come to this thread and kindly let the other one die. 

The draft is over and we have our 6 new FANTASTIC teams, I'm really excited to see how this season unfolds as I think any team can win after the draft here is the new updated rosters and the team standings as of WEEK 8.

sunday morning haven dropped and James01 is permanent. 

We'll see the new Zuffa players in action tonight!
Good luck everybody!

Damn I am disappointed in how I did, I gotta stop letting outside opinions influence picks that I am uncertain on. It never turns out well for me lol.

Is Rousey vs Tate really the only card on Saturday??

There are 3 other cards on Saturday

I am ready for a light week of events. Brain needs to recharge and re-attack

This weekend sucked for me...

Well this is what boredom and not being able to sleep will do. I went ahead and tallied up this weekend's scores without the last event:

American Werewolves-70,800
Honey Badgers-70,100
Swick With It-69,750
Sons of Tapology-69,550
Punk Rock-68,725
Tapology Top Team-66,400

Honey Badgers would have won easily had Mortis not been the lowest scoring member by far of the top 4 teams. 

Lone and Mike really hurt our team I would love for you guys to atleast just get all your picks in, that's all I ask, too many teams are picking every fight for that to happen and I don't want to drop you guys cuz we are a team but you just HAVE to pick all the fights, even if you don't have time just pick whoever, just get. the. ****. done. Please guys. 

Orange Hippo cost Swick With It from winning the week,'

Werewolves made every pick but Flatiger was by far the weakest link.

Sons of Tapology made every pick this week. And no one did bad enough to single out, although only their new addition hiblet had a week to brag about.

Thefreeman was the only one for TTT who missed an event but he still did better than most as they had a pretty crummy week as a whole.

As far as individuals go, crimedawg is leading the weekend with 5925 and Wishishere and Danno are tied right behind him with 5900.

Hope this quelled some anticipation!

So after leading for over a month we're now down to getting our asses kicked by half of the league? Great job, I must say. So were all those change and adding people needed? Were those two guys the only ones that dragged the team down? I don't remember if they were part of the original line-up, but I know we used to do much better as a team with the originals. I'd really like to have something for us to brag about again, but at the rate this is going it soon will be "haha, we're not in the last place this week".


Also I'm afraid I know where your insomnia came from, guys, I've slept for a total of some 19.5 hours (with short breakes) after UFC 144. Granted, the flu I have might have contributed to it, but I don't remember when was the last time I slept so much in a 24 hour span.

PS. I now also have this really cool shiny black thing to hold my pants in place.

@joe kerr it's daguentha and mike that have hurt us the last two weeks, both original members, get on them about making their picks!!!

What I just posted will really show who is slacking on the teams.

I added my results and got 5,275, not 4775

Well I could have done worse but I know I would be doing much better if I hadnt dropped the ball the second week and last week.

As for insomnia thats never a problem for me I have to try and stay awake

looks like Crimedawg92 has a chance to win the weekend contest.  nice work Messiah.  Friday nights fights killed my scoring.  I was brutal that night.  

well crimedawg is in first place by 25 points over danno and someone i saw with 5900.

@itfigures that is possible, I did this just good ol fashioned computation so I might have skipped over an event or two throughout the whole thing by accident, but what I just posted is at worst 95% accurate, when everything is official and posted it is always 100%
