Rules of the game

Prediction

Each player can make a single prediction for an upcoming UFC Event. A prediction consists of multiple prognostics.

Prognostic

A prognostic is a prediction for a single fight. Each prognostic consists of:

• Winner
• Method of victory
• Fight Bonus

Winner

The main part of the prognostic is obviously trying to guess the winner of the fight (or if the fight will be a draw/no contest). Making a correct guess awards points based on the position of the fight.

• Main Event: 100 point
• Co-Main Event: 50 points
• Rest of the main card fights: 20 points
• Preliminary card fights: 10 points

Note: Making the wrong prognostic gives 0 points for all the main card fights, co-main event, and main event. However, it give -10 for each wrong prognostic on prelim fights.

Additionnaly, each correct fight result after the first gives a 10% bonus modifier.

Method of victory

Each prognostic also has a method of victory. The player can choose between:

• Decision
• Submission
• Knockout
• CNC (Could not Continue)

Finding the correct method of victory awards 30% bonus points. Making the wrong guess for the method of victory give a -30% malus. This is optional, and not making a guess on the fight bonus doesn't give anything.

Fight Bonus

Each prognostic also has a fight bonus. These bonuses are attributed by the UFC to certain fights after the event. The player can choose between:

• Fight of the Night
• Performance of the Night
• KO of the Night
• Submission of the Night

Finding the correct fight bonus awards 50% bonus points. Making the wrong guess for the fight bonus give a -50% malus. Like the method of victory, this is optional, and not making a guess on the method of victory doesn't give anything.

Scoring and point calculation

As just seen above, each prognostic gives a number of points, and a potential bonus/malus modifier

When the event is over, all points from each prognostic are added together, as well as all the bonus modifiers

The final score is the total number of points with the total bonus applied

A player cannot have a negative number of points, or a negative total bonus modifier

Examples

A player made a prediction on 4 fights on an event: The main event, co-main, one main card fight, and one prelim fight

• Correct prognostic on the main event: 100 points
• Correct prognostic on the co-main event: 50 points
• Correct prognostic on the main card fight: 20 points
• Wrong prognostic on the prelim fight: -10 points

The player also made a prediction on the method of victory and the fight bonus on the main event and prelim fight

• Correct method of victory on the main event: 30% bonus
• Wrong fight bonus on the main event: -50% malus
• Correct method of victory on the prelim fight: 30% bonus

The player total points is 100 + 50 + 20 - 10 = 160

The player total bonus is 30% - 50% + 30% + 20%(3 correct prognostics) = 30%

The player's final score is: 160 + 30% of 160 (48) = 208 points

If the method of victory was wrong for the prelim fights, the player would have -50% total bonus modifier, that would be brought back to 0%

The player total points is 100 + 50 + 20 - 10 = 160

The player total bonus is 30% - 50% - 30% + 20% (3 correct prognostics) = -30% = 0%

The player's final score is: 160 + 0% of 160 (0) = 160 points
