Wasn't your EQ name Ameraves Loyalheart or something?

First pic in GIS for Loyalheart:

Good memory. How the fuck did you remember that? Also, it would appear that you failed in attaching the picture.

In and picked. It doesn't have like half of the fights, not sure if that's normal or just for this weird event. Doesn't have Kikuno's fight and he's one of the bigger names on the card.

Yeah I was noticing that as well. I sorta like this new style of picking the number of points you want to put on a fight. Definitely makes it a bit more interesting.

Will see how it plays out after a few events. Hopefully this one is just missing some fights because it isn't a very high profile card.

I bet you used it on FOH, that's prob where I remember it from.

And my internet is being fucking retarded atm, took me way too long to fix that img tag

Yup, I had the name back on FOH and had it changed towards the end there. The funny part about that picture is Tuco made that my avatar at one point for some form of punishment or something. At least I am pretty sure that is the picture.

This is how I'm going to partake of the Fight Night 34 event.

Kinda lame that it still hasn't updated. Unless they make some major improvements to that site I think we may want to find an alternative.

I assume from the way you phrased this that it's an obviously illegal upkick, but why? Just cause the other dude was down?
Yeah it's very much illegal. Opponent is on the ground and it's a kick to the head. Anderson Silva's last "loss" before coming to the UFC was due to the same thing getting him DQ'd against Yushin Okami.

I could see an argument that it shouldn't be illegal, but right now there's no question.

Well, I think I am ready to give up on that site already. First off they haven't even scored the fights yet. Second, it appears only Grimm and I are on there anyways.

So if anyone has any ideas for another site, let me know. I just don't see a ton of good options out there.

No rush, we can stick with this a little bit as a test. Not like we gave a lot of warning and chances to join before the event. I spammed the Sherdog league a bunch of times to get people signed up.

As for the site, when I tried to go right to our pool(more of a hot tub really...) it hung up for ages, but when I went from the front page it moved fine. Weird.

once you roll it, it's incredibly easy to do again. anytime i plan on doing anything that's more than running in a straight line i tape my ankle. and even w/ tape, i've rolled it before. seriously, who puts the foam pit for the rock wall right next to the volleyball court!?!

Also who hangs a heavy bag with toggle bolts!?



Also Ameraves dominated me in the new fantasy league. I didn't even consider not wagering points on every fight. I kind of don't like that it's an option.

Anyways, sign up motherfuckers. So we can get a real feel for it.

Okay, league is created. Rerolled 2014, password jayrebb.

I only set it for 10 events to see how well we like it. Can make a new one after that if everyone agrees.

Rules are set to classic, and 5 points for picking the correct finish and 5 points for correct round.

Edit: That site is pretty damn slow though.

What a bummer for him, but I can say I just don't care that much. I didn't particularly like watching Cruz fight really. Wonder if he will get healthy enough to fight again.

As for the picks yeah, I was torn on that as well. I sort of like the option of not picking a fight and putting more points into one that I am more sure of, but it really feels like gaming the system.

Go sign up, fuckers

Edit: Also, I really hope that Faber wins, even though I think it is going to be a long shot. I would like to see the guy win a title one more time before he goes out.
