This info comes from Walker's rules/help thread found here: Link.
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 signing up everybody, picks due Dec. 10th by 6:00 PM Eastern.
I thought we were going against each other for a title shot in Strikeforce (cause of the grand prix) not here. Here it was just a regular scrap right? Not sure where that eliminator talk was coming from.
Not sure how many will send picks, Walker but we've got 9 (one more fills up the main card) could use some help but you don't have to sacrifice the twinkies! The horror.
I have to go for Machida, even if i think Jones has the better odds to win... I just cant put Jon Jones on paper to beat Machida.... Ill go down with the ship if i have to! WAR MACHIDA!
for the main event of the evening. 5 rounds of fighting, for the Championship Pick 'em League Title... of the world. ... Introducing first, the challenger... a Strikeforce CPL titleholder and former CPL champion, hailing from California but currently fighting out of Ohio... Machida Karate!! His opponent across the cage, from England... this is ... the... REIGNING... DEFENDING... UNDISPUTED... CPL Champion of the world... known as 'England Elite' ... hixxy!!
"Let's get it on!"...

The main card is gonna be on fire with the co-main event two returning superstars of the league going head to head! Don't sleep on those other matchups too, the CPL members always bring it even if they are currently banned around here.
