Alfred Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Lmfao. And people said there would be shenanigans if you let everyone vote? Hopefully a lesson learned here. No more corrupt committees. Go back to voting. At least you can see the shit show developing in front of your eyes. 1 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Icon73 Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Congrats to org of the year Combate. I just loved all their amazing write ups this year. They had some of the best and most memorable posters. Their in depth fighter rankings really stood out from everyone. Also you can't forget to mention their super active smack talk thread, never a dull moment over there. Compile all those thing with the fact that they hands down far and away have the strongest and deepest roster in the game its not hard to see why this money printing juggernaut was selected 😉. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master leader Outlaw hardin Bjorn Mcg Hec Blaze Darren That was the list of the committee that I was just given. I think it goes quite a way to explaining some of the bizarre choices this year. 1 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRussellMMA Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Combate are regularly audited, something all leading promotions should do 😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imcool Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 So I obviously haven't been paying attention to the awards because I'm horrible these days, but are you telling me the awards are now decided by this magical unicorn of a committee consisting of 7 people? Lol....I guess the org of the year says it all 😁 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meat Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Please go back to voting. If not, the committee should be selected by a voting process amongst the active players in game. That way it's not so suspect and half the game isn't divided on the listed people and their choices for awards, who were apart of the committee this year. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can easily argue that 4-5 people on the committee don't belong within 10 miles of it lol. It's almost like the categories where a committee member was "nominated", were won by that member. Seems like a pretty impartial committee 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rambo Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 congrats combate, congrats Darren. imho... Syn > Sucker Punch > Dynasty (I think) > SFL > Combate/GAMMA and that is strictly due to extra curricular activity like write ups and rankings. too late to stop the steal. March to the capitol (leeds) and start insurrection. I have no issues with secret shadow committees picking the winners for participation awards — except for the secret shadow part, should be public info who committee is/was, has been my only qualms w/ "shadow commitee" — they got the only awards that have any merit correctly (MOTY & FOTY) yall were supposed to pick theksit tho. 😑 year of the GOAT is more comical without the flawless victory... and I would say your 205 FOTY is a can crusher 😇 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree on org as well. Fuck an org win Org of the Year without any media? Circus. Not too hard to set a couple of grounds rules and have public voting like other years(for example no manager who joined after 7/1/award year should be eligible to vote). Ya'll wanna be fancy w/ these committees but just end up running a rigged voting scheme. Biden for FOTY 2022. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRussellMMA Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 Didn't wanna turn this into a Combate bash - in which I obviously didn't vote for Combate myself... but here we are. I have too busy of a life irl, have been looking for a writer for about one year. Had multiple guys drop in and out... To those arguing about a committee etc... you do realise there was a post asking who wanted to be in the committee right?! These awards will always bring debate/criticism if voted for or a committee decides. Maybe I'll become a heel in 2022! 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combate is just a "sign and fight" org, while other orgs do regular entertaining writeups and so on. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
