My Name is Mr. EMc and I am the EVP of Poster Relations and GM of the Wrestling Forum.

The 2p2 "Board of Directors" has authorized me to offer the following prizes in relation to the Official 2p2 Wrestlemania Pool. There is no entry fee for this.

The MYSTERY prizes

1. Avatar in the bank!:

I, Mr. EMc, will, at the choice of the victor, allow them to choose an avatar for another poster in this forum. The poster must be a regular in this forum, and I will not go into another forum or do something to someone else that would not understand it.

The avatar cannot be against site policy etc etc

2. Color change for Name:

You can have any no reserved color (green, orange, etc)

3. Undertitle

You can have a title of your choice

The person that comes in 1st has their choice of these prizes, 2nd place can choose the remaining, 3rd place gets the last prize

BUT THATS NOT ALL! Mr. Excitement has more to offer.

The Dylan of this, the lowest score, will have an avatar of my choice as well as potentially punitive color change





Thank you!

I will enforce it for one month

(that is, if you change it, Ill change it back and restart the clock)

I figure the majority of this forum regs are in the pool, so I dont need to add that modifier. I made it pretty clear that it needs to be someone that will understand it etc etc, pretty much needs to be one of us.

THE 2011 WRESTLEMANIA XXVII 2+2 POOL

$10 or free entry. See rule #4

FINAL Official Rules:

1)Only matches announced officially on the Raw from Mar 26th and prior will be picked. Full card can be seen at the bottom of this post, or on Wikipedia at the following link(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WrestleMania_XXVIII) . Picks must be PMed to dnkyhunter31 between March 26th and March 31st. PM ONLY PLEASE.

2)The pool is a pick 'em style pool. You pick the winner(s) of each match. If a match ends in a draw, you would have to pick the match as a draw as an outcome in order to get points.

3)You assign confidence points to each pick.

How do confidence points work?

There are 8 matches currently scheduled for Wrestlemania. You pick the winners of each match and assign points ranging from 1-8 on how confident you feel about your pick (numbers only used once).

Example:
So if you feel that Cena is a lock to win against The Rock, you would assign the number 8 to it. If The Rock wins, you get 0 pts. Then if you feel HHH is a lock to win against Taker, you would assign a 7 and so forth....
In the end, the totals will be added up and the winner will have the highest point total. Highest possible point total (as of right now) is 36, if there are 8 matches on the final card (8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1).

4)Prizes:
a-Mr. EMc, the EVP of Thread Relations has donated several mystery prizes, both good and bad, for everyone who enters the contest. Prizes can be seen by clicking this link.
b-Money prizes will be offered. In order to win these prizes, there is a $10 entry fee, plus any fees charged by paypal. NOTE: YOU MUST COVER THESE FEES, SO THAT THE PERSON ESCROWING THE POOL DOES NOT LOSE MONEY ON THE DEAL. I have never used paypal before, so I have no idea how to do this.

You can play for money, or play for fun. Entry fee is optional, but you must pay to receive. If you choose to play for money, please let me know when you submit your entry. I will send you the paypal information for our escrow, wallypop. I'd rather not make this information public knowledge without his approval.

5)Winner(s) of the pool will be the one with the highest point total after Wrestlemania. If there is a tie, a previously announced tiebreaker question will be used.

6)Everyone's picks will be posted on March 31st or April 1st, prior to the start of the PPV.

7)If there are any questions, they can be asked in this thread, or thru PM to me.

Final Wrestlemania XXVIII Card (Via: Wikipedia):
1.The Rock vs John Cena
2.Daniel Bryan (c) vs Sheamus (World Heavyweight Championship match)
3.CM Punk (c) vs Chris Jericho (WWE Championship match)
4.The Undertaker vs Triple H w/ Shawn Michaels as Special Referee (Hell in a Cell)
5.Cody Rhodes (c) vs The Big Show (Intercontinental Championship match)
6.Randy Orton vs Kane
7.Team Teddy (Santino Marella (Captain), R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, Zack Ryder, Great Khali, Booker T) vs Team Johnny (David Otunga (Captain), Mark Henry, Drew McIntire, Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler, The Miz) (12 man Tag Team match. Winning team GM will become the GM for both Raw and Smackdown)
8.Beth Phoenix and Eve vs Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos (Divas Tag Team match)

TIE BREAKER QUESTION. Length (MM:SS) of The Rock vs Cena match. Time will be from bell to bell, and I will time it during match, and post a screen shot of stopwatch time from my phone if needed.

My picks will be posted ITT in an encrypted block before I receive anyone elses picks. The encryption key will be revealed when I reveal everyones picks.

8)If any match gets moved off the main card, to the preshow (ie, Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus at WM 27), that match will be declared a NO CONTEST for the purposes of this contest, and no one will recieve the points guessed on that match.

Is the 12 man match elimination?
**WRESTLEMANIA XXVIII PICK-EM POOL THREAD** Quote
03-26-2012 , 11:36 PM
im not sure, really.

they never announced it.

im assuming no.a 12 man elimination match SHOULD be an over an hour match.

Picks submitted. I actually think that this has become an excruciatingly difficult card to pick aside from my top three confidence picks.

REMINDER.

PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR TIEBREAKER PREDICTION WHEN YOU SEND IN YOUR ENTRY.

It was the red font, FWIW. It's practically invisible ink if you have a good-looking 2p2 skin applied in your options.

catching up on this now, will certainly be in for one or both....

I'm not bothered about having a custom undertitle but if I win and LKJ comes second or third I'm gonna take it just so he has to remain Splicing and Dicing

Also, not seen RAW yet so will wait till I've seen it to get my picks in. Will get my money shipped in the next day or two.

I'd say there are only two complete locks and then two matches that are extremely likely to go one way. I think Dwayne/Cena is very close though, which most people seem to disagree with.
