I'm shocked at all the people picking Orton. He's gonna keep the belt but after all the beatings Bryan has been getting, they're gonna get him back on track at some point. This whole thing reeks of a Bryan DQ win to me......

I thought that as well but, it just struck me that HHH would probably end up changing the stipulation of the match to make it impossible for Bryan to get the win.

 

[Hotwire]

Show starts in half an hour so, picks are now closed! Good luck!

Since we've had two randomly added matches tonight, I just wanted to update everyone on how points are awarded for it.

New Feature!!!
The "Randomly Added Match" has become a staple in the WWE Pay Per Views lately so, I figured we would have some fun with it. The premise is simple. All you need to do is come up with what you think the PPV's Randomly Added Match will be. First, you pick the competitors and the stipulations. Then, you pick your winner. For the sake of argument, if there is more than one Randomly Added Match, everyone's pick will apply to the FIRST on ONLY! Here's the best part. If you guess the match correctly, you get 5 bonus points. Get the result correct as well, and pick up another 5 points. Also, this match DOES NOT count toward a perfect card! It's just a fun little way to possibly shake things up in our rankings. I, for one, am very curious to see what everyone comes up with. Any questions, just shoot me a PM.

So this Fandango Miz match doesn't count because the Kofi/Axel match happened first?

Exactly. Sorry, dude. It was just the easiest way to keep track of everything.

 

[runawayboulder]

Lol, that sucks. Everyone picked that match and they ended up picking wrong.

 

[Van Petrol]

So if it wasn't for Axel-Kofi, I'd have a perfect card so far.

 

[Hotwire]

So if it wasn't for Axel-Kofi, I'd have a perfect card so far.

You still do. The Randomly Added Match doesn't count toward the Perfect Card. Only the matches listed on the Final Card count for that.

 

[Van Petrol]

Oh, I see...

 

[Lobo]

Further proof that Axel ruins everything!

 

[Hotwire]

Just gonna repost all of these.

Rules:
1. Anyone can take part, whether you participated in previous seasons, or previous rounds of this season, or not. However, I do ask that if you participate, please continue with it.
2. The final card will be posted after the close of SmackDown on Friday night. Once the card is up, simply post your picks for the winners of the matches on the card as well as the "Randomly Added Match". PICKS MUST BE IN NO LATER THAN 7:00PM EASTERN TIME. NO EXCEPTIONS!
3. The "Randomly Added Match" is a match added to the show that was not listed on the final card. For the sake of argument, the first match added to the show will be considered the "Randomly Added Match".
4. You do not have to predict how the match will be won (e.g.: pinfall/submission/DQ etc.) although you can add it if you wish. This does not change the point outcome.
5. You can predict the match will finish in a draw/no contest if you wish.
6. Replies must be posted no later than 1/2 hour prior to the start of the event.
7. Play fair - no editing of predictions after/during the PPV.
. Points system is below.
. Our decision is final.

Point System:
1 pt for every correct prediction
+2pts if it is a title match
+2pts if it is the main event (defined for the sake of argument as the final match to take place on the card)
+3pts if the match contains more than 4 people (e.g.: 6-man tag matches, Royal Rumble etc.)
+5pts if you correctly predict the result of every match on the card The

Half Points Rule:
Half points can be awarded to all those who participated in the PPV Prediction if one of, or both conditions occur.
1. If no one predicts that the match will end in a draw and it does, half the point value of the match will awarded to all who participated in the PPV predictions. This will not, however, count toward a "perfect card". If anyone predicts the draw, this is null and void.
2. If there is a substitution in a match made after the cut-off time for submitting predictions, half the point value of the match will be awarded to all who participated in the PPV predictions. This will not, however, count toward a "perfect card". If anyone predicts the substitution, this is null and void.

Randomly Added Match Bonus Points:
+5 Correctly predict the participants of the match
+5 Correctly predict the outcome of the match

 

[Van Petrol]

And there goes my perfect card, lol.

 

[Hotwire]

[venom892]

What's my current ranking?

 

[MMMMM...Pancakes]

Up to #3! Just need to jump over Van Petrol and bump down Hunter.

 

[Hotwire]

What's my current ranking?

Let's just do this.

The numbers in () are to indicate how many PPVs that person has missed in a row. After three, I change it to (Out). They're not really out, I just wasn't listing them when I posted the results. If they post predictions again, I'll, of course, put them back in.

 

[runawayboulder]

I'm just hoping to break 100 pts. I kinda screwed myself back in February when I forgot to submit picks.

 

[Lobo]

I started too late. But, HR and Van Petrol I'm coming for you

When do the seasons begin/end? With Wrestlemania?

Calendar year so, it starts with Royal Rumble and goes through the end of the year.

 

[cyclone]

Wow! That's the best card I've had yet, I think. Woop! Gutted I missed a PPV predictions card a couple months ago. Might be higher in the table if I didn't

Ah well! The climb up the table starts now!

 

[IamDave81]

this has nothing to do with anything, but I want to give bayley a hug

You don't say...?

 

[SpideyFan866]

I still upset about Night of Champions.

Had I just gone with my gut feeling/first choice rather than picking based on what the majority went with, I could possibly be in the Top 6.

Never again I say!
