This is a signup thread for the next Strikeforce event which takes place in two weeks, Saturday Apr. 9th at 7:30 PM EST. The main event is the WW title fight between Nick Diaz and Paul Daley from the Valley View Casino in San Diego, CA, USA.




Anybody who likes Strikeforce can sign up, even if they have not played so far. Details on how to pick are below, same format used for UFC events in CPL. Send a pick for every fight on the main card, and for two of the fights on the preliminary card.

The scheduled fights include:

MAIN CARD

* Nick Diaz vs. Paul Daley
* Gilbert Melendez vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri
* Keith Jardine vs. Gegard Mousasi
* Shinya Aoki vs. Lyle Beerbohm

PRELIMINARY CARD

* Robert Peralta vs. Hiroyuki Takaya
* Brett Albee vs. Virgil Zwicker
* Saad Awad vs. Joe Duarte
* A.J. Matthews vs. Herman Terrado
* Edgar Cardenas vs. Rolando Perez
* Casey Ryan vs. Paul Song
You can send picks whenever confident with the fights. The picks should only be pm'd once unless they add, drop or change a fight on the main card. The offcial card can be seen HERE. If someone signs up and fails to send their picks, they lose their matchup and won't be cleared to fight at the next event. The deadline to send picks is when the Strikeforce event begins, approx. 7:30 PM EST in the US.

On how to pick fights:

Select the correct fighter: 10 points
Select the correct method of win: 5 points
Method includes Submission, KO/TKO and Decision.
Select the correct round of win: 3 points
If you select the fight to end by decision then you must choose either unanimous, split or majority instead of a round. If you want to predict a rare outcome such as a DQ or a draw you may do that as well. For the DQ, include the name of the winning fighter and the round it occurred, and for a draw include the type of draw the decision was (unanimous, split or majority).

In addition you can earn bonus points for EACH fight by putting the fights in order from your most confident pick to your least confident when you PM them. If there are 10 fights on the card then your most confident pick could earn you an extra 10 points if you get it correct.

Thanks for coming on board. 6 picks are all we need for this one. The four huge main card fights, and you pick any two prelims that you want. The picks don't have to be in until the 9th, so take all the time you need and they could add new fights to the card or make changes if they have to, especially on the prelims.


I'm in, I was on the undercard in CPL can I get a main card fight in SF?
This main card/undercard thing is just based on your record mostly, when I pick who fights who that's where I get the matchups from and the people with more wins go higher up the card. It doesn't affect how many points you get in the fights, it just gets you a little more pay (credits unfortunately, they don't pay me real money here). On the other hand, people who call out their opponent and have their challenges accepted, and keep this place interesting with smacktalk will usually get special treatment on that win/loss record thing on the fight card.

Sweet, thanks for playing! You have done it once before, though, I think it was the first one. We don't pick all of the prelims anymore, just whichever 2 you choose because they are a little sketchier with prelims than the UFC but you can usually count on at least that many.

I can't remember doing a SF event before. That cannot be good lmao. I thought I was just a can in UFC. I bet I'm 0-1 here as well.

Ah well should be fun!
