koadah, while this is interesting history, I think it should be in its own thread, rather than cluttering this one up?
This thread is specifically for Cup XX

Well..I will put it to the fans.

Do you want me to once again open up the Altdorf Book and Casino and do the "pickers" challenge again...Who is the best at picking matches?

Here is the low down on that. I have done it for, I think, 4 FC tournaments.

****************************************************

** Milford from the AB&C **

Well FUMBBL fans Iam once again set up in my penthouse suite in the new AB&C Hotel. Man is it awesome, as always I have a open penthouse door policy, so drop on by and have a few rounds of beer with me.

Once again the AB&C will be hosting the FUMBBL Cup pickers Challenge. We will use the large field format for this challenge once again.

Here is the run down, full rules and disclaimers will be posted below.

The AB&C will post 10 matches for you to choose from. You will pick 5 matches and give us your insight on who will win. You will be awarded points based on which matches you pick correctly. Also there will be some speculation bets to boost your score.

Depending on the size of the field this will be a 7-8 round challenge.

Also if you miss a round it is no problem, miss 2 rounds and now we will have some issues and if you miss a 3rd round you are DQ.


Once the Draw is made the AB&C will go live and you can start picking your winners.


** For all the new coaches: AB&C stands for Altdorf Book and Casino. **

Altdorf Book and Casino "Pickers" Challenge


FUMBBL fans it is time to introduce the pickers challenge for the FUMBBL CUP.

Here is how it is going to work.

Every Wed/Thur (Due to real life changes in my specific universe that I live in I will do my best to keep with the Wed night/ Thurs morning schedule. I will do my best to get the "card" made early each round) morning I will post 10 interesting matches for you to choose from. You will pick 5 of the matches. The entry form will have the 5 picks ranked from your 5 point game to your 4 point game all the way down to your 1 point game.

So the most points you can get in a round is 15 points. Every Wed. I will post 10 more matches and off we go for round 2.

So you are picking 5 games out of the 10 posted. You will rank your 5 picks by points you earn for a win. So your stone cold lock you would pick for your 5 point match and your toss up, I have no clue match as your 1 point match. Every round we add up the total points earned and keep a running total as we go through the FC.

NOW there will be a speculation bet worth 5 points also. It will be in the vein of: Of the 10 matches which one do you think will have a combined score (touchdowns) of 6+. Or of the 10 matches which one will have a combined CAS line that exceeds 10+CAS in the match.



AB&C has added another element to the "Pickers Challenge", More Prizes, More points and MORE CARNAGE!!!! (Ok, maybe not carnage but more points)


"Pickers" Challenge Survivor Pool

This challenge will be running inside the normal pickers challenge game, here is how it works.

In order to 'survive" you must pick your 3 point match correctly. IF you make a correct 3 pt match then you survive in this sub game into the next round. IF you miss your 3 pt. match you are OUT, FINI, Thrown to the sharks....CARNAGE!!!!

That last coach standing at the end of the pickers challenge survivor challenge who has not been eliminated gets a bonus of 10pts onto their final score.

IF all the remaining coaches go "out" in the same round. Tough luck, that is how the cookie crumbles and no one gets any bonus points.

IF at any point there is only 1 coach left in the survivor challenge going into a new round, he wins, regardless of what round that occurs in.

IF there are more than one coach still alive when the last round is announced, then all the surviving coaches get the 10 bonus points.

Got it? Good.

Does this note count?

It might need updating. How many majors have there been since April 2021?

Ok, so I am going to do my predictions for the initial 16 groups of 'eight'! Do you think I'm right? Do you think I'm wrong? Do you think I'm crazy? All of this should be posted! Speak your mind!

IT'S THE FUMBBL CUP!

Bracket 1:
Ohwatch has a Gutter Runner with.. +PA +PA +AV +AV. I have no idea what this player is. I probably should go with this team but I won't! I'm going with Neilwat's Ogres, who have a winning record! How can they be beat?! WRONG

Bracket 2: Porkfest.. Undead.. the names alone tell me, this team will be the winner! DOUBLE WRONG

Bracket 3: Some good contenders here, but for a variety of reasons, including imbibing future-telling potions, I choose Kinks' Undead! WRONG

Bracket 4: Can't go with the guy who keeps walking on ma lawn, so instead, we maintain our pattern and go with HimalayaP1C7's Undead! CORRECT

Bracket 5: Now the brackets are full, its harder to pick. I won't pick rookie snots though, so SideshowBob and his Khorne get the nod. TRIPLE WRONG

Bracket 6: Elves and undead and boom and bang.. and Joost with his Lizardmen will slither through. CORRECT

Bracket 7: Giant nobility, perfect underlings, but, in the end, it will be spinball with Chaos Dwarves. CORRECT

Bracket 8: We have 2 brand new rookie 1000 tv teams, actually facing each other? We've got happygrue facing Malmir? This one has it all! But I have to go with... happygrue and the Ogres because Ogres destroyed Orcs in the UI! CORRECT

Bracket 9: goblins vs halflings. goblins vs underworld. snotlings vs skaven. underworld vs undead. Who CARES who wins? STUNTY CITY! But I go with Ramchop's Goblins because razbot said to ask Ramchop! WRONG DOUBLE WRONG

Bracket 10: There is a lot of excellence in this bracket. But I have to give it to the MA8 Rat Ogre leading mrt1212 and his Skaven! TRIPLE WRONG

Bracket 11: Only a fool would predict his own self to win, particularly after throwing away the first round in the UI. But I'm a fool! Nelphine with Orcs! CORRECT

Bracket 12: The highest TV in the tournament with over 2000 Ogres! Dangerous.. ok completely rookie.. goblins, massive Khorne.. but we vote nobbynobbs with Amazons! DOUBLE WRONG

Bracket 13: chaos dwarves, chaos dwarves, elves with stats!, chaos dwarves.. and doclystria Necromantic! WRONG

Bracket 14: Home of the Ulthuan Invitational winners! Can they go back to back? No! It's halloween, and the Undead of Sp00keh shall bring it home! WRONG Second prediction was correct!

Bracket 15: The only chaos in the tournament. Fat halflings. Lean halflings! Teams that used to be good. Rookies galore! Elyod with Dark Elves, tried and true. CORRECT

Bracket 16: No, they really aren't tier two! No, not that team, BeanBelly with Orcs! WRONG second prediction is correct



So there you have it, my initial predictions. So many teams, I haven't had time to review them all, but let's get the FUMBBL Cup underway!!!!

You are wrong on bracket on Bracket 5. My Snotlings aren't rookies, they have a Sneaky Git!

I feel special having my team shouted out with, "elves with stats!" May Nuffle bless those stats and keep us on the righteous side of hell.

I kept winning in the UI as long as you kept predicting against me Nelphine, so your sudden confidence is making me nervous.....
