I need 3 months of gosh darn VIP time. Paying $400k for it.

Looking to buy 3 months of VIP, PM me.

Obligatory MMA Tycoon is dying, Mike don't care! post.

Rack City. Rack Rack City.

Not exactly sure what happens to retired fighters on your roster once you lose VIP but a heads up a whole load of my guys may hit FA market soon since VIP lapses in 12 days. The mystery shall be revealed if Bubba is forever retired or if he becomes the next rename to PoofyHair CanNinja.

I pay Mike for VIP but I no trust him

It brings a tear to my eye to see him get this far. He was one of my first fighters created, aka Vinny Veechi. He has a high iq and pulls out "wtf" submissions...it was his specialty.

The number(or lack thereof) of responses to this thread cement my thoughts about how much this game has fallen. Cant even get newbies to sign up for free training, OR other managers to pay $2000 a week for 1/1 training?

All losses by cut should be vacated from fighters records. They are not legitimate wins. Mike should be fined for having cuts in the game.

My exit from the game is your gain. I still have 4 more fighters to get out of their contract, but I dont need to train them or give a f*** since I'm leaving. So I extend out my hand to newbs in search of elite level training. My gym, HEY LISTEN, is taking on 20 fighters while I'm in the process of quitting, which will probably take at least another month to retire the fighters and get them out of contract. I don't expect it to go much longer than a month since after I retire my remaining fighters I'll only have about 30 days of VIP time left. 10 fighter slots will be to newbies*. 10 fighter slots to rich bitches**. I retired all of my sparbots. I'm open to you bringing in sparbots, however we'll need to talk about it since if he starts using the coaches I'll kick all your fighters out, not just him. (aka, use fucking yoga instead of CT). *Newbies - Any manager who has a join date after 1/1/12 will be granted two(2) free fighter spots at my gym. Post here or PM me to join up. **Rich Bitches - Any other manager wanting to get one(1) fighter in will be charged $1,000 a week, on top of gym fees. AKA, you're paying $2,000/week for your fighter to train in a private 20 fighter gym(with 2 triple elite coaches). Contact me about getting your fighter in, I'll have you do a manager-manager transfer of $4000 to take care of the month, and your fighter will of course have gym fees autodeducted by the game like normal.

Sounds more useful than the other things on the list. Would have definitely used that. Or PA to search for private jets in the same vein.

Since we're back to the "realism" debate, sure some very select few can defend takedowns all day long vs. an elite wrestler but a huge majority will be taken down pretty frequently(not taking into account standups/escapes/etc since thats different vein, and I'm fine w/ escapes/standups). Why is that not the case here then? I know it's a game and programming that is hard, but I'm being a devil's advocate. Taking the stance that whenever you reach x skill level its hard as hell for even an elite wrestler/elite TD/Elite physical to take you down is down right retarded. By that standard I propose that I should only need wonderful/exceptional striking defense to never get knocked out by and elite/elite all elite secondaries standup fighter because theres probably some MMA fighter out there w/ balls of steel, chin of diamonds, and can withstand some blows.

I really liked the ground game, but as it's progressed I've noticed(and seems a lot of other people also) that its too fucking inconsistent getting someone to the ground and keeping them there. It's been better about keeping them there, but still seems absurd about actually getting someone to the ground when you take into the skills you need to not get KTFO in the first place. It's way easier to make/maintain/win with a standup fighter, thus is the reason why everyone looks the exact same now days. And why the game is becoming so stale.

And just because I posted it in the Clock Speed thread, I might as well post it here in case anyone ever wondered about skill sets of fighters: http://i46.tinypic.com/iod6c3.jpg

My exit from the game is based around everyone having the same set of skills. There are small differences, but in the end it's too much RNG now days and not enough to do w/ sliders. I feel I am pretty terrible at sliders, but I have been somehow hovering around 100 manager rank...I think mostly in part to having good hidden luck and good RNG in fights. I miss the days where there were wild differences in skills like in the lower-mid tier orgs, but I don't care to mess w/ those since the org owners can be shady and theres no "drive" for me to care about a fight still. I REALLY REALLY like the LOL tournament, except the weekly fights w/ injuries killed it; but the low skill nature of it was awesome and made me care about the fights(initially). a lot of it for me is forum smack talk or some kind of build to make me care about the W's and L's on my virtual numbers fighter. That build and anticipation is gone. I went on a drive to try and reignite some interest via Bubba/Puno retirement, or the spotted cow projects, etc; but they all fell flat. People just dont give a shit. I have no ill will towards tickers and more or less welcomed them since I thought it would force fighters to degrade(even though it would still suck to watch your own degrade, it was best for the game long term). That doesnt appear to have happened and just made people sit in project mode until they hit sens/sens/exp/brown even longer. What changes can be made? I dont know and as a person exiting I think it would be off place for me to make any suggestions since others are obviously still involved and liking the game regardless of the mass exodus of older players. And in regards to fighters not looking all the same, I post all my fighters skill sets since I have 0 faith in skills degrading in a major way, any major game engine changes, or reignition in the community that would make me want to play again: http://i46.tinypic.com/iod6c3.jpg They almost all look the same in varying degrees and the only difference I see is what hiddens they rolled. I log in a lot to lurk the forums, but only 5-10 mins to "ticker bop" in the morning/evening since I dont know what the hell I could even train anymore since they're all high end. The sens/elite gap isnt worth the time, and anything less than sens is a death sentence usually now days w/o some crazy hiddens. Guywaun just depopped to Sens++ wrestling due to lack of care in the game, but I learned from him that theres no point in building a ground game. I was working on building him into a standup fighter since theres at least good chances he'd be able to do -something- instead of going 1 for 10 vs remarkable wrestlers.

You're lucky I just typed it all instead of making photoshop pictures like I initially planned. Then I decided I'd rather play Diablo 3 and hit post instead.

Hes frozen in the cavern of ice. No interviews. No fights. Who knows when any of the ice will thaw.

*In a local bar, the bartender hushes the patrons as he flicks on the TV and Channel 9000 news broadcaster Tom Tickleton comes on* TOM: Tonight in the Tycooniverse, a local legend and his gaggle of misfits have fallen. Taken early some say, not taken soon enough say others. Either way, this tragic news comes TOO SOON after last Friday. We go to Nina Nino at the entrance to some cave in the middle of no where. Nina? NINA: Thanks Tom! I'm here as you said at the entrance to some random hole in the ground where we hear things went south inside. The only known survivor currently, Wacky Chan, spoke to us about what happened. WACKY: Well after Bubba recent loss to Anton he must have been hit in head to much since he start talking about magic sliders in hole. He was talk like a prophet. He put on head dress and do dance for us and of course we all love Bubba and the heart so we follow him since he so passion. NINA: Who exactly was going on this "magic mission," Wacky? WACKY: We all go. Pico told us humor Bubba and let him get depress out of his system after him get knocked out. I think I could use magic slider to my own. I been wanting to leave Pico camp for a long time and probably could use glitch sliders since I hear so much about them. I think any one else use glitch sliders though is cheater, but I use them for power of good. The french always good people. NINA: So you actually all followed Bubba's crazy plan into a dark cavern into the earth, just because you're silly manager told you to? WACKY: Like said, they all follow and thought maybe Bubba would talk stop but I want use on my own. So we all follow. Took us 14 hrs of walk but we got there! We find actually glitch magic sliders Bubba talk of! Not sure how we find them but it was not a good idea we find out. Glitch sliders were in ice tomb for being stuck so long. We try to get them but dopplegangers appear to stop us! NINA: Dopplegangers? WACKY: Yes! Dopplegangers! They all Sensational/Sensational/Exceptional/Brown ninja! They train too long and have no way stop them so all look same! Ice ground so cold they know ground fight no good anymore so all train and look same as everyone else. Is scary to see world come that way! NINA: So you fought this army of dopplegangers inside their ice cavern? WACKY: Silly woman, you know when is doppleganger you have no reason fight. We roll dice to decide who live or die. It called Are An Gee i hear. But stand for Random Number Game. NINA: So people really don't fight on skills anymore since you all look the same but just roll dice to see who lives or dies? WACKY: Eggxactly! NINA: That sounds dumb. WACKY: Not our choice, is god choice. So we all run around and roll our dice in major fight! Someone trip Machidan Lyoton and he die before my eyes! Not sure how happen but Chameleon Denton Thunder try to morph into Machidan but some how god stop him and he die too with out dice roll!' Bubba see this RNG not good and he try to grab the gltich sliders to save us all and make dice roll win. But so many doppleganger and so many skill they boobie trap sliders. Bubba smashed him iron head into ice shattering it but it set off explosion and ice collapse on them all! NINA: Everyone is dead? WACKY: I do know not! I see Bubba, Momoko, and Machine were all trapped! I guess everyone else stuck too! NINA: Are you a ghost? How are you here Wacky Chan? WACKY: Well. Wacky sometimes coward. I like get things for self but sometimes DUCK real challenge like glitch sliders because I scared. Small penis. So I hide by entrance and I see people die I run out of hole in cower. I live to fight another day! NINA: So what's going to happen to you now Wacky? WACKY: Well I challenge Afro Samurai but he try to doppleganger me and duck challenge! I leavin Pico camp after next fight to try and find other glitch sliders so I win. Pico always force me fight while injure, not fair. Plus pico stuck in ice too. Him a sucker to follow Bubba so long, he deserve be stuck in ice. Like Vanilla Ice career. NINA: Well there you have it Tom, tragedy and misfortunre. Dopplegangers and RNG have apparently claimed more lives in what seems to be an on going trend. What man or god can be a hero to change the tides and resurrect these fallen foes? We may never know sadly. TOM: Thanks Nina, I ho..*scene fades off* *In a dark lit corner of the bar, three cliched hooded men angrily slam down their drinks. One flicks on his lighter for a cigarette. These men are none other than Spotted Cow, Guywaun Lopez Lopez, and Father Frottage.* Spotted: We need to *hick* finish these damn *hick* drinks and find them guys! How'd we let them go down der without us? Guywaun: Yo dawg, you axked uz to get some dranks in yo cup after you finished yo farm work. Sorry all yo friends is cheesy except me. Frottage: I am also here gentlemen. Guywaun: Ya but yous just wanna touch us when we aint lookin' and get drunk! Why we even let yo azz in wit us? maaaaaaaaan. Frottage: *evily rubs hands* Yes. Let's get going. You guys lead so I can watch your as....I mean because I don't know the way. *The three slam down their beers and rush head first into the night toward the ice cavern to meet their doom like their companions.* The End?

God I'm so hard that I can almost finally cut my fighter.

That list should already include Pico with Bubba @ 19 p4p(damn you hype loss) and Momoko @ 13 p4p. But since it's not, it shall be by 7/22! #19 Bubba KillsInWater vs #1 Anton Chigurh @ Blitz 124 and #13 Momoko Yamaguchi vs #32 Gaisafa Masoe 7/22 @ CW Hilo

Laundry completed, thanks bees!

It's been eons since I've been able to get money laundered. I need $900,000 bottom-line-dollars laundered. In real transaction terms it will equate to 1.7million. I've decided to contract out my laundry washing to 3 different companies to spread out the burden of handing all this delicious green cash, thus each would be responsible for returning 300k to me(total amount 900k!). You will receive a 15% cut, and I will also forward an additional 15% which will cover the tax for the manager-manager transfer. 15% * 300k = $45,000. 300k + 45k cut + 45k tax = $390k total spent at your shop. You transfer the 300k(which is taxed at 45k) and the extra money Im spending covers that game tax. Understand? So, whos going to give me that sweet cashola I need? Cleaner Bees: 1. Sub Zero - 7/7/12 2. 3.

Im pretty sure Machine faces Mcthornbody next? K Fists isnt in the tourney?

Crisse believes it's just THAT awesome he had to double post!

Hey people pay $250 for one silly Diablo 3 item....3.33 isnt bad.
