So... if the Player's Union and MLS don't reach a deal by midnight, and doesn't seem likely they will, MLS will initiate a lockout. Lots of folks getting loaned out, take it for what you will. I hope we see club owners pull out of MLS entirely and form a new league that doesn't make the mistakes of MLS (or NASL for that matter) but I doubt that'll happen.

Yep.

Deathmatches can be hella fun on occassion, especially when you use mods and allow them to fight on the floor or enable three-way dances etc. Also note that with mods you can also do mutli-person cage matches, but if you make them pin/submission (the way to go, as escape the cage logic kinda sucks), eliminated people will basically start as if they were exiting the cage, but just *stays hanging out there*, like they get handcuffed to it or something

Ruki confirmed to be Simon Whistler.

did a couple more rumbles in anticipation. one was a DEATH RUMBLE, which combines with the landmine deathmatches. Ended up being won by the crafy crustacean himself, Dr Lobster's Evil Twin.

I'm actually doing a solo run. Next time will be different as I'll be playing a more dashing rogue type than the "I can erase you from existence with this hand cannon" type I'm playing now.

That's good too. Also: The Gridlock.

All they need now is a proper crest and an informal nickname (The Georges?)

MLS may be cancelling this year, but the People's Himmarshee FC is on the pitch and scoring dubs. https://www.himmarsheefc.org/himms-start-2021-with-a-w/

I'd say Washington FC just to be cheeky, but apparently that's taken. Washington Sporting Club isn't though! No, wait I got it: Washington USFC

If Ian Black doesn't pretend to be a legendary NFL player or claims to be totally blind I will be dissappointed.

PM incoming

Since it's the season for it, here's what the Royal Rumble mod for Fire Pro looks like in action

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Mitchell Williams

Playing the Outer Worlds and while the gameplay is kinda meh for me, I love how the setting is corporate dystopia IN SPACE but with like zero subtlety at all and just dunking on capitalism. It's a very fresh take on the theme.

Of course the SEC will shut this down. Only billionaires are allowed to manipulate the stock market, y'know.

We could have gotten Ice T as Roland

Fucking hell, if I knew this was going to happen I would have made a killing. If I put the 100 in savings I've been doing that would have been $600 if I had sold it today FML

These are... interesting choices.

and yet, probably still has shorter combat than some HERO encounters I've played.

Well, thing about squash machines is... the game isn't really meant to accommodate that kind of wrestling because it's built on 90s Japanese wrestling. Mods exist to make jobbers for squashes to happen, but if you aren't using those you can expect 7-15 minutes for a Goldberg match on average.

Bernie Sanders and his mittens are now in the workshop

yeah, when you have an MMA guy built for MMA fighting and put him into pro wrestling he's going to dominate. They'll need, minimum, a logic overhaul so that they work matches.

Patch 1.1 is up
