I lost it on the Koscheck fight which I had higher than you did. My real regret though was picking Leben to beat a wrestler.

I'd be fine with not dropping any scores.

I know I don't hold back on any pre-fight predictions at all, personally. Hope others don't, either. Agree with cpt there.

Also would be cool with not dropping scores.

I don't recall ever thinking about refraining from posting pre-fight analysis in a UFC event thread because it supplied ammo to the fellow competitors in the pool.

Glad to hear nobody is holding back. Now I look like the guilty one, lol. I've just noticed less activity in the threads before the events, but maybe it's just a case of people thinking "I'm making my picks in the pick'em thread, so I don't need to do it in the event thread," even subconsciously.

I'm cool with dropping the low score or keeping it in. Originally it was meant to make things more inclusive, but I don't know that it's played out that way.

I mean I'm fine with leaving it in if it keeps more people involved (people don't drop out if they forget an event) but on the flip side it seems like its been the same people finishing every season anyway.

Should we start a new thread on this board advertising the new season starting next weekend? Some people may just not check this thread since its so big and assume its an ongoing thing.

Probably should start a new thread anyway, since I think this one will hit 100 pages mid-season.
