  1. youre almost trolling ... arent you like 30? how do you know so much? (to troll back with a Joe Rogan quote ) .. ok ill bite ^^ he talks a lot of nonsense? who doesnt. it takes a lot of practice though to not take yourself (your own processor [created by your environment & experiences & access to things etc.] that processes all the things for you basically) so serious and Joe does a solid job at it, especially considering how well hes playing some of the games that are around ... the capitalist game, the social game etc. only interesting to you for your psychological studies? arrogant ;P .. youre post is far from having the perfect POVs for other peoples minds/reality-processors as well. your post is interesting for my & other peoples studies .. as is anything, anybody says & does. anything that is put out there is analyzed for all the little studies .... in my opinion some of your observations about Joe are false and you put him into many categories he cant possibly live up to. Joe doesnt wanna be a conformist? he tries not to be a conformist? hes obviously pretty open minded and doesnt easiely settle for one view, if theres alternatives that also make sense on whatever level. having an open mind is one of the most important keys to find whatever. his chosen profession demands that he looks from unusual, uncomfortable, even what some would call crazy angles at things. i for one fully support looking at things from as many angles as possibles. im having a hard time imagining otherwise that well ever get rid of this ridiculous alpha / beta .. wolf / sheep garbage. you wanna talk about intelligence ... i hope we have enough of that, time & potential to get past that. reality is much more interesting when you scratch under the surface? of course and thats what people who are interested in the world & universe like to do. usually the people i got to know who are into fantasizing, talking big & small and going deep, are also in awe of reality & what we have right in front of us as well. everybody views reality a bit different as it is and some like to go off and see how far they can take it in their head, since there is a looooot of room for fantasy, because we have so much inspiration from the huge amount of things that are allready explained, yet we have explained so little compared to whats out there. we still have a lot to figure out and we must use both our left and right brain. golden middle is where the cake is. like in mma-tycoon ..... aggressive |------------|-----------| counter ... cant go wrong with the middle - unless its an absolute-slider ^^ just saying .. its remarkable how often the middle between two extremes is the most sense-making answer. thats an example of how cock-sure you sound during a lot of your post. how can you be so sure? do you view tigers as intelligent? how do you know that some tiger doesnt do some stupid shit on purpose sometimes? well ok maybe a tiger doesnt ^^ .. doing stupid shit on purpose even though one knows better sounds pretty human-exclusive, which makes us look so so dumb & evil when viewed from a distance in this transition-period of evolution. the golden middle for us would be to have as much fun as possible, while keeping everybody & our host in good mind. everything is connected. arent we more like here: advance, take chances, be ruthless, party hard, kill for temporary profit |------|---------------| dont advance, have fun with the basics, be nice, live in harmony with nature & only take the utmost essentials right. stupid example. mma-tycoon inspired me, i took it somewhere else ... is it nonsense? sure ... but whats nonsense to one is useful to another mans/womans processor ... whole ways of thinking can change with the right combo of input. imho its good when the mind is like water, when it can accept new things and throwing old things away since were & everything is going so fast. youre completely right that theres a flood of info .. and a flood of ways, but its tricky for anybody to just be sure what is right & wrong. theres no grown ups, nobody that has all the answers. collectivly as the human race we havent even scratched the surface yet. imho having endless questions & being ok with never knowing the whole truth but yet striving for it is a good way to have. out of necessity if nothing else ^^ how do you know what kind of aliens are out there and howd they view us? the only things thats pretty sure is that theyd be pretty different from us, smarter and/or dumper on different levels .. maybe theyd be just dumper as far as having fun. maybe theyd view us as food, energy, toys or dumb/intelligent friends or just blow us up because they can. who knows. you cant say that you know. every day theres something happening and/or new discoveries or theories where one can go holy shit. a lot got done with the power of imagination in science, so i dunno why youd find it interesting to weird that people like to come up with their own stuff or think about possibilities and crazy shit and whatnot .. since, really ... what isnt crazy? what we experience with our limited senses on this planet is insanely crazy, let alone what happens out there in space or in our heads. like i said earlier in this thread, if you dont consider yourself & your suroundings crazy, youre crazy. i dont see many things with confidence, but that i do. now ill press post and this post will be judged and therefor i will be judged .. kinda scary ... someone sitting somwhere in the world with another type of processor judging me .. but nothing comes from saying nothing and thinking nothing around here. internet is like a huge giant unconscious brain. may the big wolfs never take it away from us. i dont know if i have a point .. maybe why look weird at someone else for being different? if anything we should be nicer to each other, "we'll" have enough time being super-smart when were robots or when our brains are on harddrives or even connected to the universe in ways we cant imagine yet. but expect no mercy when the shit hits the fan *knows how to make a crappy bow & arrows*

  2. Hello fellow tycooners, Some of you may know Jeff Smith, he is a fellow keyboard warrior that runs a nifty little organisation in Sydney called Triumph United. What you may not know is that Jeff is also a nifty little real life professional MMA fighter with a tidy 6-1 record (12-2 overall)...his only loss coming not at the hands of his opponent, but his own misjudgement, as he KO'd himself landing a slam. The UFC are currently running a promotion where professional fighters can apply to join the UFC and based on how many votes they receive from friends and fans on the application site and an evaluation from UFC management, they may be offered the opportunity to fight in the UFC. I can only speak for myself when I say that it would be pretty awesome to have an active member of our online tycoon MMA community actively fighting in the real life UFC. If you can spare a minute or two of your time, could you please lodge a vote for Jeff (let's face it we all spend waaay too much time on MMATycoon doing a whole lot of nothing...im sure you've got a minute or two to spare!) Click here to view Jeff's profile Click register and create an account (you can use a spare/fake email address if you like) Navigate to Jeff's profile (click here and login or search for Jeff Smith in people when logged in) Click "Show your support" on Jeffs profile page (right hand side) Additionally, if you could also click 'Add to favorites' it will help grow Jeff's list of followers. As an MMA fan who has much admiration for those who have the courage to step into the cage and fight in real life, the 2 minutes of my time was the least I could do to show my respect. Hoping you can help to get one of our own into in the UFC. Cheers, Don Logan

  3. I think there should be a new slider for attack head vs attack body option in clinch. This would enable a fighter to throw punches and use elbows - without using knees. This is not possible today. It should be, I think, since it is very possible in reality. You just need to have two seperate sliders for "attack head vs attack body", once for Muay Thai and one for dirty boxing. Just like that. My guy has exceptional punching and sensational elbows with no knees = big problem, check last fight! Landing 17(3) knees. Thats 17,6%! Just to clarify, with current slider options, I am forced to throw them. http://www.mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=301221 Cheers! /Kampmann

  5. We have way too many things holding our civilization back. Religion, individual culture, individual nations, etc. These things that people praise will most likely lead to the Human race's eventual extinction.

  6. I disagree... The manager obviously just forgot (or went inactive) and probably wouldn't mind if the org owner was able to fly him out as most managers who have NCed for my org were very apologetic and honestly just forgot or went inactive. The alternative is that the manager purposely wanted to NC, and that's just a scumbag move and, frankly, who cares about those guys? Of course, maybe safeguards can be put in place so this can only be done in the final 24 hours before a fight so it doesn't screw with a fighter's training, but while it wouldn't be my first choice for a fix, its quite logical.

  7. +1 i think Led Zepplin better just focus on defending his Syn title anyways. seems to me Led's been spending his time peaking out the front window at Kane all the while Ventura and Nai Khanom Tom have walked through back door and are standing right in the middle of the room. almost like it's their house now

  8. Not really, I just don't give much of a shit about your WW whose won a handful of tough fights, and for some reason you feel that entitles you to be the first in line--when I whooped him with another fighter four fights ago. You act like every time you get a guy in the top ten, I'm suddenly obligated to drop whatever my plans are and give you a shot. That sort of self entitlement/spoiled brat syndrome just makes me want to watch you sit on the sidelines longer. You'll get a shot when I'm satisfied you've earned it, and frankly, whenever I damn feel like it. I hold all the chips so to speak, you're the one who needs something from me--so you're on my time. And that's the last I'll comment on it for the time being.

  9. This one has a great story-line to it I think. My fighter Fletcher was in the RC LW Ggrand Prix and I didn't even expect him to get past the first round but he did, then he submitted Otso Jokinen, which shocked me a lot but Fletcher's next opponent almost made me cry. I knew I had no chance, Fletcher was strong/feeble/superb/black and I was ranked about 500 at the time. Fletchers opponent was Luke Daigle's fighter. Luke is one of the best, if not the best managers in the game and this was one of his biggest prospects. Supernova I believe was sensational/wonderful/remarkable/brown. I thought I was dead but when I read the play-by-play I couldn't believe my eyes. Fletcher even held his own on the feet. http://mmatycoon.com/fightcommentary.php?FTID=230584

  10. I did ease up. I just typed something without thinking about it, and should have never even put it. Either way, lets have fun, this is a game after all. I love all of y'all. Now lets punch someones teeth in.

  11. I agree going into that fight Chuck looked more fit and ripped than I had ever seen him before. It is just sad how fragile his chin has gotten after all those wars.

  12. I'm just imagining him chasing these kids thinking of pure revenge.....self-defense is out of the question and when you choke somebody and do that much damage, it is very much personal obviously I'm missing a large portion of the story but a 42 year old man choking a 19 year old to death doesn't seem right to me. I don't know how he plans on proving he was threatened by these boys. I guess his property was threatened..probably good enough to kill in the states

  14. Bullshit...I was at his fight vs Rich in Vancouver and he looked great. Great shape and almost had a 6-pack and everything...even threw some kicks, if i remember correctly. Then Rich caught him lightly on the chin and he went down...too much accumulated damage over his career. While I think he still could beat a lot of the guys at 205, he just cant take a punch anymore...

  16. Commentary text: ~ is having better clinch control. He manages to apply a front face lock on ^, lifts him over his shoulders, turns his opponent upside down and falls back, slamming his foe's back to the ground! WOW, that was so fast, what a brutal suplex! ~ Knew the fight was over and ran to celebrate with his team! What a brutal victory! Winning move text: KO (Suplex)

  17. Hype + Popularity all the way. If the fighter doesn't have the skills to back up his hype, he doesn't deserve to have it in the first place.

  18. I guess since Luke seems to be afraid of throwing Kane in with Led I'll have to hope Kullero wins. I actually have a soft commitment from that side for the Led fight if Kullero wins.

  19. having the org owner take control over another managers fighter to put him on a plane is just not even a logical option. sounds like it wasnt really thought out too much. all that is gonna do is increase drama and lead up to abuse from org owners. it seems to me that cancelling the fight like AA suggested is the most logical choice. then if the org owner should be able to find a short notice replacement to step in then that seems pretty much like a real life solution. magical appearances or taking control of other managers fighters arent good ideas

  20. That just sounds like more scared talk. I've allready made your agument about not being ranked high enough look silly. If you thought you actually had a chance of beating led with Kane you'd jump at the 200K. The fact is I've been trying for the fight for months and you keep avoiding me. As far as the Justice fight goes, if/when they fight again I assure you the outcome will be much different. It's also not like a 29/28 fight is the total domonation you seem to imply it is. LOL
