Welcome to season 18 of the Goonweight GP! We've been on hiatus because starting a season with the last two cards would have been a pretty bad idea. Not that this card is much better but I think everyone has heard of one fighter in every fight, let's pick some fights! NOW UNDER EVEN NEWER MANAGEMENT BlueDeanie was forced to step aside due to various A few days before every card, I'll post the fights on the main card with a FORM and a SPREADSHEET. Fill out the form (or post you picks in the thread), and then check the spreadsheet to make sure your picks are in there correctly. When the card is over and I sober up, I'll calculate the results and post standings, along with a link to the DATABASE that maths everything out. Check the database to make sure it's calculating properly. CERTIFIED RULES OF THE GRAND PRIX
Too confusing? Please consult this handy flowchart to determine your score for a fight: Here is the current season lineup: SEASON 18 Upcoming Cards UFC 184: Rousey vs. Zingano Feb 28, 2015 UFC 185: Pettis vs. dos Anjos Mar 14, 2015 UFC Fight Night: Maia vs. LaFlare Mar 21, 2015 UFC Fight Night: Mendes vs. Lamas Apr 4, 2015 UFC Fight Night: Gonzaga vs. Cro Cop 2 Apr 11, 2015 UFC on Fox: Machida vs. Rockhold Apr 18, 2015 UFC 186: Dillashaw vs. Barão 2 Apr 25, 2015 That's right, a SEVEN CARD SEASON! There's a one week gab between Fox and 186 so it makes more sense to just stick it in this season and give people who miss a card a chance to recover.

If it does not work please let me know and I will fix it!

Sorry this took a few days but I was having some trouble with the OTNs. Figures UFC would go ahead and give out four POTNs on my first week doing this! If I can't get the form to work I'll enter it manually or bother Lone Goat. I'll probably figure it out though. Of course after doing this I find no matter what I do I can't format this in the post. I'll have it all figured out for the next card! quote:WINNERS quote:RANKINGS doverhog is your UFC 184 winner! Everyone is pretty bunched up under that. Ignore the rankings for now and just focus on the points, tiebreakers should be figured out by the time the next form is up in a few days. The RNG was the biggest loser of this event but even the RNG managed 4 points! Actual human beings got at least 8 so good for you human beings! quote:Meanwhile my grandmother was shewing, because now I was keenly interested in golf and lawn-tennis and was letting slip an opportunity of seeing at work and hearing talk an artist whom she knew to be one of the greatest of his time, a disapproval which seemed to me to be based on somewhat narrow views. I had guessed long ago in the Champs-Elysées, and had since established to my own satisfaction, that when we are in love with a woman we simply project into her a state of our own soul, that the important thing is, therefore, not the worth of the woman but the depth of the state; and that the emotions which a young girl of no kind of distinction arouses in us can enable us to bring to the surface of our consciousness some of the most intimate parts of our being, more personal, more remote, more essential than would be reached by the pleasure that we derive from the conversation of a great man or even from the admiring contemplation of his work.

I'll have it all figured out for the next card! When there's too many POTN's, I just manually changed people's picks in the database to match the winners. For instance, in this card (requires archives?) (wiki), there were 4 POTNs and no FOTN. In the database, I entered Mousasi and Dollaway as the POTN winners, and then manually changed any Cedenblad/Backstrom picks to Mousasi/Dolloway and highlighted them in orange so people could see what I did. As for formatting the posts, you have to use the [ pre ] [ /pre ] format to get them to show tabs properly, but it still needs some fiddling. The data entry is incredibly fussy sometimes, so I made some tutorial videos for Bluedeanie explaining how to handle it. I'll PM them to you.

Yeah I sent him those videos as well. I had a few problems with otns both with people entering them correctly but them not tallying properly and with events that featured an odd number of bonuses. My solution was to just ignore the form'a number and commit to tallying them manually if there was a tie, which didn't happen under me and to my knowledge has not happened yet at all.

That... shouldn't happen. I hope I didn't give you an old version of the database that was back from when there was KOTN/SOTN. The last one I used with POTNs was smart enough to not care what column each person's name was in. That is, if POTN1 was fighterA and POTN2 was fighterB, then it should still score the point if A was in the 2 column. MassRafTer if you're having the same problem let me know and I'll have a look at the formulae.

Those upsets threw pretty much everyone for a loop. Barely anyone had RDA winning and only a few more picked Joanna. Dr. Pancakes came in first and everyone is pretty tightly compressed in here so the season is wide open. Even the goons under the RNG have a chance at the title. Completely ignore OTNs right now. I fixed them for the first event but screwed up this week. I think only two people got them so it will be an easy fix.pre:Goon Points OTN Rank Dr. Pancakes 14 2 1 LordPants 13 2 2 Meeks Sisu 13 2 2 doverhog 12 2 4 Fentry 12 2 4 EricHall 11 2 6 Chairman Kaga 11 2 6 CommonShore 11 2 6 The Duck of Death 11 2 6 Roman Herbom 11 2 6 Doresain 11 2 6 Senordingdong 10 2 12 Trast 10 2 12 Thauros 10 2 12 canoshiz 8 2 15 LobsterMobster 8 2 15 individual865 8 2 15 Lloyd Boner 8 2 15 acai moonsault 8 2 15 DumbWhiteGuy 8 2 15 Belgian Waffle 8 2 15 Bluedeanie 8 2 15 Gunblade 8 2 15 niethan 8 2 15 MassRafTer 7 3 25 MichingMallecho 7 2 26 TheReverend 7 2 26 ChampRamp 7 2 26 Great White Hope 7 2 26 Nystral 7 2 26 RNG 6 3 31 Doo-Wop Duodenum 6 2 32 yuriy 4 2 33 Davedog 4 2 33 Mr. Carlisle 3 2 35 Fork of unknown origins 3 2 35 UltimoDragonQuest 3 2 35 pre:Goon Points OTN Rank doverhog 30 3 1 EricHall 29 4 2 Chairman Kaga 29 3 3 CommonShore 26 4 4 Fentry 26 3 5 The Duck of Death 26 3 5 MichingMallecho 25 4 7 canoshiz 25 3 8 MassRafTer 24 4 9 Senordingdong 24 4 9 TheReverend 24 3 11 LordPants 24 3 11 LobsterMobster 23 3 13 individual865 23 3 13 Roman Herbom 23 3 13 Dr. Pancakes 23 3 13 Lloyd Boner 22 3 17 acai moonsault 22 3 17 ChampRamp 20 3 19 DumbWhiteGuy 19 2 20 yuriy 18 4 21 Belgian Waffle 18 4 21 Trast 18 4 21 Mr. Carlisle 17 4 24 Fork of unknown origins 17 3 25 Doo-Wop Duodenum 17 2 26 Bluedeanie 16 3 27 Lesaboteur 15 1 28 Meeks Sisu 13 2 29 wooger 12 2 30 PhilBo1001 11 2 31 Doresain 11 2 31 Meanwhile my 11 1 33 RNG 10 3 34 Thauros 10 2 35 Gunblade 8 2 36 niethan 8 2 36 tesilential 8 1 38 Great White Hope 7 2 39 Nystral 7 2 39 Davedog 4 2 41 UltimoDragonQuest 3 2 42 UFC Fight Night Maia vs LaFlare pre:Welterweight Demian Maia vs. Ryan LaFlare Welterweight Erick Silva vs. Josh Koscheck Lightweight Leonardo Santos vs. Tony Martin Women's Bantamweight Amanda Nunes vs. Shayna Baszler Lightweight Gilbert Burns vs. Alex Oliveira Featherweight Godofredo Castro vs. Andre Fili RESPONSES
