Wolf, you pulled the trigger on DudeDude?  nice.  WereWolves work in a pack no room for lone wolves here.  if your not down with that, well sorry about your damn luck.

his points are going to stay on the team he earned them on, all future points will go to the honey badgers, I am discussing with wake as if there is anyway to keep his point total since he is currently in the top 50 and its not really fair to make him go back to 0.

And Wolf I'm not going to say you can't do anything with your team and their picks either way because I feel I would be overruled but I did have a concern that 4 of your members are all within 25 points of each other. I don't really think it's fair that if you have guys that are just going off your expertise to better their and your team's score. I'm not saying that is what's going on but you kind of just alluded to something like that and like I said you have 3 other members all right behind you in the standings.


EDIT: I guess there is nothing wrong with it if you guys want to make team picks there's nothing I can really do about it I just don't want you to have a bunch of people that just listen to you and make YOUR picks, if you see what I'm saying. Because I know we banter back and forth but I'm not going to deny you are one of the top members.

@messiah. we pick individualy. you can check on that. be my guest. we told gastronaut to use the UG in his picks. that what i was referring too. there is nothing wrong with that. its just added info. all i tell my team members is to go for perfects in the smaller events. you can check up on the comment sections if you want. you can't hide anything here

@wolf that's cool, using the UG is a great way to help you with the picks, and if that's what you meant then my mistake. I guess I'm just worried about a little competition I guess ;)

@fresno the Underground, every fighter has a link to the UG on their page. VERY FEW of the 0-0 amateur fights are in fact between 0-0 amateurs (a little known Tapology fact)

Ohhhh I use this all the time, and yeah I realized that 0-0 guys could sometimes actually have extensive amateur records.  I didn't know it was called UG though, when I type in UG mma into google it goes to mma.com and doesn't say anything about Underground
edit: nvm I just saw at the top where it says it lol

I don't tell anyone what to pick and nobody tells me what to pick, do I talk to wolf or other team members you bet your ass I do.  it is a team competition.  we should be trying to help each other out.

I want it clearly understood that my performance last week was based off work i did.

@fresno. i was about to say there was no way you could get 24 perfects without using the UG. its very helpful with fighters 0-0 in pro bouts but they list the ammy results. now everyone knows. fair is fair.

well the game just took a change I guess any other tools that we want to share with everyone.  I don't have any unless you're on American Werewolves.


Hey I just did a Worst Nicknames Ranking If you awesome people would not mind filling it out I would appreciate it.

@wolfman Yeah I didn't realize some people thought it was sort of unfair?  Or what?  It seems like the only real way to be able to confidently pick a fight like that.

UG, so that's where everybody's getting their info on 0-0 guys. Good to know. I've asked previously, but nobody answered.
Lopati, there already is the worst nicknames ranking (http://www.tapology.com/rankings/147-worst-nicknames).

It's this one: http://www.tapology.com/rankings/257-the-most-impressive-debut

Kinda disappointed with people's choices so far though. I think I'll have to do some serious research over the weekend myself to leave more viable choices.

What are the trades?

Soccerkick commented on my profile to tell me he wanted bbman, but bbman is already on a team.


I don't really check this thread so you absolutly need to comment on my profile for a trade and have the exact nickname of the player you want.
