Powerslam Predictions VIII: Return of the Warrior
« on: January 29, 2012, 02:16:12 pm »
Right, short notice, we're back, come on guys, Rumble tonight!

It's on like Donkey Kong!

Put simply you sign up to this game, and when a WWE PPV comes around, you PM myself your picks.  You don't post your picks in this thread because you don't want anyone copying now do you?  Obviously I will not be playing, I'll just run the game.

Now simply making a pick is very simple, so to keep things entertaining, points will be awarded for a variety of different things.

1) Predict the winner.  You can go with either wrestler or predict a draw.

2) Predict the method of victory; Pinfall, Submission, Count Out, No Contest, Disqualification.  (In a match where only 1 method is possible i.e. Last Man Standing points will not be awarded).  For this to count you have to predict the correct wrestler, then these points are a bonus on top.  For example, if you predict Edge to win via pinfall, and he loses via pinfall you will not get pinfall points.

3) Predict the order of the matches on the card, obviously if a match is added during the event or after all the predicitions have been PM'd to me by the deadline that added match will not be taken into account. (See No.4 for subsequent rule..)

4) Points will be awarded for every individual match you get correct on the card to.

5) Predict the correct person to be pinned in a match where there are multiple choices, for instance in a tag match which tag member will do the job, or in a triple threat, who will be pinned/submitted, or Fatal Four Way and who will be doin the pinning.  Or in an Elimination Match (For instance a Chamber, who will eliminate who)

6) If you miss sending your predictions in you will be given the average score of the PPV, this is known as your "Average Bye", you can use this once, miss more than one PPV and you will just be given 0 points.

So the scoring is as follows:

1) Winner: 10 points
2) Method: 5 points
3) Correct order of all matches: 30 points
4) Get a match's position on the card correct: 2 points
5) Who's laying down/Who is doing the pinning: 2 points/2 points

"Special" Royal Rumble Scoring: Points for the Royal Rumble Match go like this:

Winner: 20 points
Iron Man (Lasts the longest): 15 points
Guess who gets most eliminations: 15 points
Guess the #1 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the #2 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the #30 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the 1st person to be eliminated: 5 points

The list of events covered this game are as follows:

Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, WrestleMania XXVIII, Extreme Rules, Over the Limit, No Way Out

So the usual match order and such.

And for the Rumble, remember the special scoring we have

"Special" Royal Rumble Scoring: Points for the Royal Rumble Match go like this:

Winner: 20 points
Iron Man (Lasts the longest): 15 points
Guess who gets most eliminations: 15 points
Guess the #1 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the #2 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the #30 Entrant: 5 points
Guess the 1st person to be eliminated: 5 points

And if you can't "guess" the #1 entry, you suck!

I'm In. Seems like an easy card to predict except for a match or two. You never know though. The Rumble is always hard to predict.

So I haven't really watched wrestling since hbk retired, besides last years rumble and wrestlemania. Haven't really come around here in quite sometime but i am starting to get back into wrestling. Went to a few live shows over the past couple of months and started watching raw again last month and watched the craptacular royal rumble last night. Trying to get back into it... So can i join in on this motherfucker or am i too late? I just want to play something. lol  :smoking:
Johnny Nitro or John Morrison or whatever name he wants to go by SUCKS!

I am in favor of CENA FREE WRESTLING!!

I miss HBK and Edge!

Thats it thats all I have to say...Because I'm Sober_Times, And I'm awweeesoomee!

Atari, Sober, Eric, Evo and ZigZag can all use the average bye, that's what it is there for.

I'll score this when I get back from training.

Just to show how much some of us don't watch wrestling, someone failed to predict Miz as the #1 entry  :hihi:
