First of all, I would like to thank stinky fingers/ricky dooby for the excellent Mania Cup Trophy that he worked tirelessly to develop. This is his property so don't effin steal it.

Second, this is the second call for fellow Maniacs to join Season 8 of the Money Pool. In case you missed the first one here is the thread about it: http://www.mmamania.com/2012/7/16/3162002/mania-money-pool-season-8-invitation-this-is-your-chance-for-greatness

I will make this a shorter one so that ViolentMike won't have to bitch about long posts causing DavidWS (R.I.P) to seriously reassess his individuality and outlook towards Mania.

If you want more details, please do read the link I posted above, if your attention span is as low as BodyPunch/K.O's IQ then this one will just suffice for you.

This post is just like sarah's mini skirt: short enough to get your attention, but long enough to cover all the essentials.

The Mania Money Pool in 4-easy steps:

1. You create an account at mmaplayground.com (you choose a username)
2. You email Jay at jaywhyte27@yahoo.com on how to best send your entry fee ($20). P*yPa* is not allowed!
3. Once you're good to go, Jay will invite you to Mania1 camp and you're in.
4. Start making your picks. (correct winner: 5 points, correct round: 2 points: correct method: 2 points: all correct: 11points)

The Prizes* (for season 7 with a total of 26 players):

1. First prize: $320
2. Second prize: $150
3. Third Prize: $70

*If we are able to get more than 40 players, we will pay event winners.

So far the following people (well aside from the regular 26 who played) have shown the balls to get in the pool:
