    Woo, just won the WFA Featherweight Title by Submission at 2:30 in the 2nd round, my first ever sub in this game too! Rocked Billy Madsen from open guard, then slapped on a leglock for the win! 5-0-0, and your new WFA Champ. :D

    Followed it up with an armbar victory in my first title defense against a guy that had won 95% of his fights by submission. Figured I'd try and show him up at his own game. When I hear snappy snappy, it makes me happy :)

    After spending a good while customizing my guy, I just won my first WFA fight by knockout 4:26 into the 2nd round after a nice combo of punches. The guy was 16-6 before the fight, so I had a bit of guts stepping in against someone with that much experience, but I was able to easily control the flow and got the KO.

    Next fight is a fill-in fight, once again I decided to take the experienced opponent (he's 15-5) but he's coming off a TKO loss (that is a pretty cool new feature they added as well, being able to see their last 3 fights). Outworked him with my wrestling, bloodied him up early in the 1st before GnPing my way to victory 1:28 into the 2nd. 2-0-0 :)

    For my third fight, I decided to put my guy outside his comfort zone and go against a BJJ Black Belt that's won 67% of his fights by subs, and is 9-3. He also happens to be from Toronto, so it's a showdown between two T.Dot boys. Only advantage I've really got is that he's coming off a fight where he lost by KO. Well, he can now make that 2 fights in a row he's lost by TKO. All I have to say is thank Blackhouse for teaching me that jumping headkick that just put him to sleep 4:00 flat into the 1st round. 3-0, baby! :D

    Playing on advanced, and I'm a Featherweight with a wrestling style - mostly for the takedowns from clinch.

    So far, I'm loving this game (though I haven't played too much yet). Soccer kick to the face KO's in PRIDE are amazing.

    Oh yeah, whoever's runnin it, shoot me an invite to the PS3 Camp, please and thank ya. ;)

    Anyone else got this on PS3?

    And I got revenge against Hardy, then lost to Swick in the exact same way. Just how the frick are you suppose to get away from the ground position, while blocking the punches from the guy above you, without getting called for TKO?

    Are you swaying side to side while you block? From the demo, I've found that it hopefully causes them to miss a few shots (or atleast not connect cleanly), and gives me a chance to recover.

    My Goalie BAP is rage-inducing at times, but great fun at others. Probably something to do with playing on Superstar. :shifty:

    Just finally finished my 2nd NHL season after being drafted 1st overall by Edmonton in the NHL entry draft the year before. Just a note, I hate playing for Edmonton. :shifty:

    In my rookie season (2011/2012), I started in 12 games in the AHL with 5 wins, 7 losses and 1 shutout, and posted a 2.04 GAA & .897 Save %.

    I was then called up to the NHL for what I was assuming was a tryout, however I ended up becoming the backup to Dubnyk and by the end of the season, I had given him a good run for his starting job.

    Same rookie season (2011/2012) but in the NHL, I started in 16 games (played 20 overall) with 9 wins, 7 losses and 2 shutouts, and posted a hefty 1.98 GAA & .901 Save %

    (Of Note: Dubnyk finished the season with 53GP, 26 wins, 21 losses, 2 shutouts, and had a 3.06 GAA & .895 Save %)

    The 2012/2013 season (the one I just finished) came around and after the preseason games, Dubnyk and myself found ourselves in a battle for the starting goalie spot. Throughout the whole season, we continued to split the games nearly evenly, with me getting a few in a row then him getting a few. By the end of the season, it came down to Dubnyk with 41GP (36 started) and myself with 45GP (42 started), so I ended up slightly edging him for the '#1 Goalie' :shifty:.

    Despite the whole team playing like utter shit infront of us for what felt like eternity, I still somehow managed to come out looking great stat-wise. Dubnyk, on the other hand, wasn't so lucky.

    We (Edmonton) finished in 14th place in the West, with a record of 36-41-5 and needing a telescope to see the playoff picture. Taylor Hall led the team in goals & points with 28 & 60 respectively, Hemsky led in assists with 39, and Gagner, Eberle & Hemsky all finished with 50 points or more. Nearly everyone on the team was in the - with +/-, except for Colten Teubert who was somehow +11 through that mess of a season, playing all 82 games. Next highest + was Andrew Cogliano at +3. 2 seasons in, and the Nuge hasn't even been brought up yet.

    Toronto made the playoffs though! Unfortunately, they were swiftly knocked out of the first round by Washington :( . The finals ended up to be, to my and probably everyone's surprise, Carolina vs Columbus~! And it goes to Game 7~! zOMG Carolina wins the cup~! Onto the retiring players, big names to note; Datsyuk :(, Selanne, Gonchar, Lidstrom, Timonen, Modano, J.S. Gigure.

    2012/2013 season: I started in 42 games (played 45 overall) with 21 wins, 21 losses, 1 shutout, and posted an amazing 1.81 GAA & .910 Save %.

    (Dubnyk had an unfortunate year, 36 games started (41 played overall) with 14 wins, 22 losses, 1 shutout and posted a mediocre 3.31 GAA & .886 Save %.)

    (After the playoffs, the GM told me I was in the Top 5 Contenders for the Calder Memorial Trophy. Didn't win it though despite my efforts :crying: )

    I now head into the 2013/2014 season, and my 3rd and final year on my Oilers contract. Unless things turn around drastically, I plan on moving on out of Edmonton as soon as my contracts up. Where I'm headed is beyond me, but anywheres gotta be better than here. :shifty: It seemed the Oilers had trouble signing Taylor Hall and Gilbert Brule, as it took them 2 months to negotiate a contract with both and both of them signed 1 year deals. They may be heading out next year as well. I noticed in the off-season, the Oilers signed Jason Labarbera (another G, 82OVR). Looks like I may have some competition next year in the crease.

    EDIT: 2 games into the season, and we're 0-1-1. Edmonton says they're happy to sign Karri Ramo (G, 79 OVR), and says it may impact my role on the team. Looks like they're prepared for me to leave. :shifty:

    Sure, let's see what you've got. I don't believe I've flip-flopped on goalies before. Sure, I've given them a bit a grief but hardly tried to run them out of town or anything.

    Oh, and..

    Trolling:

    Being a prick on the internet because you can. Typically unleashing one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent by-stander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.

    I also peaked an interest in starting up a BAGM, albeit not taking it completely serious. Decided to go with Operation: Save Columbus (or, after now seeing what I've done, fail miserably :shifty: I was half asleep while doing all of this one night).

    I put way too much thought into the rookie draft, and decided that the future of Columbus is going to be big - in size that is. My defense corps came first.

    I drafted Sergej Malevich, a 6'4" 207lbs D, as well as Viktor Svedburg, who I deem to be the next Chara, coming in at a chart-rocking 6'8", 224lbs. Not quite sure yet if I'll have the two paired up, or one on each D pair. I also drafted Reto Schappi, a 6'4" 205lbs Center, and his wingmen will be Daniel Zweep (LW, 6'4" 227lbs) and Nick Czinder (RW, 6'5" 240ish lbs). Others of note that I grabbed are Benjamin Bassen (D, 6'5" 209lbs), and Jonas Gunnarson (G, 6'1", 192lbs) who I don't expect to be anything too special but his name is a Leafs players name combo, so bonus points.

    I had my eye on a few guys as well that ended up getting drafted elsewhere, but I managed to swindle a trade for a few of them for either a 6th or 7th round pick or someone meaningless to me on the roster. Jonathan Lessard (LW) and Pierre-Oliver Morin (LW) came from Chicago and Nashville respectively, and they're both smaller and speedy players than the rest of the guys I drafted. Also smaller is Steve Kuhn © who came from Philly. Also got another RW, 6'6" 249lbs Ronnie McQuaid, who came from LA. Managed to get a trade for the D partner of 6'5" Bassen, and that is Brodie Melnychuk (6'4" 196lbs) who came from Calgary.

    With the future looking big (:shifty:), I then turned my attention to reshaping the current team. I had the odd idea in my head before I started the game to try and set up a Grabovki/Kulemin/Zherdev line if I could swing it somehow. Well, for some reason I cannot find Zherdev in the league (at least yet), but I did manage to make a couple trades with Toronto. Traded my 2013 2nd round pick and Kristian Huselius to TOR for Mikhail Grabovski, and my 2012 & 2014 2nd round picks as well as Antoine Vermette to TOR for Nikolai Kulemin. Looking at that now, palm-face a bit, but meh, let's work with it.

    Next came a deal with the Rangers. Heading out to NY City is Fedor Tyutin, and 2012 & 2013 1st round picks. Coming back to Columbus, Marian freakin' Gaborik.

    Coming up next, a deal with Nashville. Weber, you say? The bastards wouldn't let him go. Next best bet, Suter is coming to Columbus. Off to Nashville is Derick Brassard, a 2013 3rd round pick (and I think 2014 as well), and someone else I can't remember. Final trade I made thus far, until I find Zherdev at least, was with Philly. LW Alexandre Giroux, a 2014 3rd round pick and a 2015 2nd round pick went to Philly for C Brayden Schenn.

    My current lines are as follows, with Gaborik and Nash occasionally switching:

    R.J. Umberger - J. Carter - M. Gaborik

    N. Kulemin - M. Grabovski - R. Nash

    M. Calvert - V. Prospal - D. Dorsett

    C. Gillies - S. Pahlsson - J.Boll

    R. Suter - N. Nikitin

    M. Methot - J. Wisniewski

    G. Clitsome - A. Johnson

    (G) Tukka Rask - C. Sanford (Backup)

    I've officially fucked up Columbus for the next 3/4 years or so. (Y) I look forward to seeing how my big-body rookie setup works out though.

    EDIT: Just traded Steve Mason & a 1st rounder for Tukka Rask.

    Yeah, it was all in good fun.

    Price even said at one point that he didn't want to try poke-checking anyone because he didn't want to take the chance for someone to get hurt. Respect to the guy (Y)

    All Star Game is getting ready to kick off, lets go Team Chara!

    2-0 Team Chara, courtesy of two beauty goals from Gaborik and Malkin.

    Make that 3-0, 2 nice goals for Gaborik on his team-mate Lundquist. Hossa and Gaborik have crazy good chemistry.

    3-1 from a nice tip by Spezza off a Girardi shot.

    3-3 after Hartnell and the Sedin Twins put together a nice passing play for the 2nd, and Tavares got the 3rd with a rebound shovel in.

    Gaborik with a hatty to start the 2nd period. 4-3 Team Chara

    Kessel to Lupul!! 5-3 team Chara

    5-4 after Pominville finished a 3on1 passing play

    Alfie with a nice one-man effort to tie it up 5-5 and explode the crowd.

    Sedins to Alfie for his 2nd of the night and in a row, 6-5 Team Alfie. Cue crowd explosion again.

    Kane ties it up 6-6.

    Kessel with a beauty!! 7-6 Team Chara!

    7-7 thanks to Milan Michaleuk

    8-7 for Team Chara from a nice Malkin pass to an Iginla goal cross-crease

    Giroux ties it at 8-8 after Timmy Thomas slyly tried to throw it away after making a save, and it cost him.

    Hossa with a beautiful effort and goal, beauty. 9-8 Team Chara

    20 seconds later, Gaborik with his 4th goal! 10-8 Team Chara!

    Perry from Iginla! 11-8 Team Chara!

    Danny Sedin from Henrik gives Team Alfie some hope. 11-9

    Lupul's 2nd!! 12-9 Team Chara!

    And that does it, Team Chara wins 12-9. Fun game to watch for sure, lots of back and forth action.
