CAGFC (UFC 2009 League) - HW's Only! New Site! Details Inside!

[CAGLeagueSports]

The results from CAGFC8: TRUE WARRIORS have now been finalized. We only had one incomplete fight between Chris Moore and Gail Pennyfeather. In true Nordic fashion, just like he does in the bedroom, Pennyfeather backed into his first CAGFC win. Good job getting the rest of the fights completed though, guys!

The card for CAGFC9: NEMESIS is also up. There's a lot of great matchups on the card this week, with both Ortiz brothers back in action...and both in title bouts. Mach Sakurai looks to push his CAGFC record to 7-0. I Am DrP1zza looks for revenge against Gary Russell vowing to "beat him into the living death". And finally, a rematch of last week's great Lightweight title fight between Ash Cambell and Captain Caveman.

The deadline for CAGFC9 fights is Thursday, 7/30 at 11:59 PM EDT. Good luck to everyone!

[CAGLeagueSports]

I will have to bow out of the league after this fight. Trying to match up with my schedule and the schedule of others doesn't always work out and also with FN4 and NCAA I can't put as much time into UFC.

By "this fight", I hope you mean CAGFC9, because I JUST posted that card and you're on it. Your last fight would be against Tony Hawk, so I hope that's cool.

Michael Klein l Brandon Haines l KO 3:50 of round 2

Sorry took so long to post, had to go out after the fight and just got home.

Sorry I didn't post either, went out afterwards as well. What can I say though, I've lost 3 straight now after going 3-0. I may need to re-analyze my game. I might as well have started the fight last night and just put my controller down. That's how bad I thought the fight went. He had control the entire fight.

[Soodmeg]

Yo I want to try to get my fight in as quick as I can. Today would be great...I can play anytime for the rest of the day.

[Ultimate Matt X]

Matt Young, let me know when you'll be available. If soon works for you that is cool, but I wouldn't mind a few days to improve my character some more either.

[Ultimate Matt X]

Not sure if it matters, but my fighter is now a 63 overall if you want to update the info in the first post.

[Matt Young]

I can play tomorrow evening, or after 8 P.M. Pacific time on Sunday.

Thanks, just tell me where and when to show up for my first fight.

Thanks, just tell me where and when to show up for my first fight.

Cards are posted on Friday mornings, so you just missed the one for this week. When you're matched up with somebody, it's up to you guys to contact each other and work out a time for your fight. Most of the important info is in the spoilers at the top of the OP. Check that out if you haven't already.

[Mr Meaty28]

Just send Cmoore a message over live... if he is out for this card, maybe Dead could fill in?

Simeon Lamhov| Mach Sakurai | Submission(Triangle Choke) | 1:12 / round 3

Good fight man And the new WW champion of the world Simeon Lamhov!!!!!

We have to sparr sometime man.

[Tuffgong]

Simeon Lamhov | Mach Sakurai | Triangle Sub Rd 3

Nice fight man, congrats on taking the title. It was a true toe to toe battle on the feet.
The reversals you were hitting were CRAZY. Very nice stuff.
I actually pulled mount a few times and thought I could maybe pound out a win, but nice job blocking and transitioning.
My confidence got a little too much and came out blazing for that takedown in Rd3 and when your reversed me on the ground, I spazzed out and gassed trying to get out. Lamhov then put Sakurai to sleep. Ending the unbeaten streak. Nicely played.

Dude, this is tough week for me I have to play Whipt1 next and I'm 0-2 vs, but I feel lucky!

[Mr Meaty28]

Tuff you had me on my toes with 3 mount in the 2nd. Truely a great fight in cagfc history.

[moojuice]

I quit typing.

[CAGLeagueSports]

Congratulations to Simeon Lamhov for starting his CAGFC career out with a bang by defeating the (up to that point) undefeated Welterweight Champion Mach Sakurai! Lamhov made a loud entrance to CAGFC, voicing his desire to take the belt.

With other Welterweights Bill Brasky and Codi Garber already matched up, Lamhov made the most of his early title shot, catching Sakurai in a triangle choke 1:12 into the 3rd round. After only one fight, Lamhov now finds himself at the top of the WW rankings, but the other fighters will most certainly be gunning for him.

[Ultimate Matt X]

I can play tomorrow evening, or after 8 P.M. Pacific time on Sunday.

I may be out most of tonight, but I'll look for you. I should be able to make it Sunday though if I'm not around.

[MikeBike]

PMd my opponet. Hope to get fight done soon

[Soodmeg]

I am free for the rest of the evening and all of tomorrow hope to get a my match in then.

I will be on at 10pm tonight and some time mid afternoon tomorrow around 3 or 4 most likely.

Tony Hawk | Chris Moore | TKO in Round 2 (2:58)

First round was pretty slow, with both fighters mostly at probing range, picking their shots. Round 1 ended without incident. In round to, Hawk caught a head kick, bringing Moore down to the mat. After a few minutes of rolling around one the ground, Hawk gained the mount and earned a TKO victory when Herb Dean brought the match to a stop after Moore managed to survive getting rocked.

Good fight man, thanks for finish up this week's card instead of just bailing.

Gary Russell | I am DrP1zza | Tapout (Knee bar) 1:27 of Round 2

[n8rockerasu]

Gary Russell | I am DrP1zza | Tapout (Knee bar) 1:27 of Round 2

I think I'm going to retire DrP1zza. I mainly made him as a joke fighter, and I didn't ever really expect him to contend for a title. Making him true to life and having wrestling as his preferred fighting style was a mistake on my part. I don't think enough like a wrestler to utilize slams and I truly despise it as a fighting style. I have no business fighting Gary if I'm not fighting from a point of strength. It's just dumb on my part.

Bill Brasky - Codi Garber - Unanimous Decision - 5:00 Rd 3

Great fight!! Back and forth battle I really thought you were gonna get the decision. Looking forward to a rematch after I get the WW Belt!!!

[cgarb84]

Bill Brasky | Codi Garber | Unanimous Decision ( 30-27, 30-27, 30-27)

Man was that a close fight. Really good fight, lots of back and forth. I thought I had a chance to win so I laughed hard when I saw all three scored it 30-27. I knocked you down twice in the 2nd Round so I don't know how the fuck they scored that round for you. But I could've seen giving you the first and third rounds, even though they were very close.

[Soodmeg]

I will be on in a couple hours to get my fight in if my opponent is around.

UMX, as a reminder, I can play after 8 P.M. Pacific. I can probably play sometime before 5 as well; just depends on when/if you can play.

Same goes for you, of course, Nate.

[Ultimate Matt X]

I can probably play soon if you're still around. Just PM me or message me on XBL. But I'll definitely be on later too.

[Matt Young]

Okay, well it's probably be between 3:30-4:30 Pacific when I could play. Then, anytime after 8, really. If either of you can play between 3:30-4:30 I will sign on then. Just let me know.

I'm on now. I swear we have some kind of Live glitch with each other because you don't show up on my Friends List and I can't even see your activity, regardless of if you are on my list or not. If you see me on send messages, I had a message from you before so evidently some get through. But yeah it doesn't list you on my Friends List or even as pending when I send an invite like it does most people.

Well, he did say before 5 Pacific. Remember, he's in CA, so even his 3:30 time isn't for another hour. Also, he's got his status set to invisible because bitches be getting up on Matt Young like free money. Word.

[Matt Young]

That's because my list is full. I can't receive a friend request, so there's nothing pending.

I can play in an hour, as I said. Nate said he's willing to wait until after our fight if necessary, but either way, it'd be nice to play you both. I won't be back on the computer till right before I sign on Live, just so you know.

Matt Young | Nate Lisa | KO | 1:31 of Rd 3

Good fight Matt! You seemed to just have my timing down perfectly for some reason. I ran into a bunch of big bombs, and thought I was going to get decapitated. Then, in the final round, I fall victim to one of my own specialties. The old "I'm going to do the same move as you, but I'm going to land mine first". My spinning backfist put my face right into Matt's fist, and it was over. KTFO! It feels good to be the one to stop your losing streak, haha. :wall:

[Ultimate Matt X]

Gail Pennyfeather | Matt Domoracki | TKO | 1:01 of Rd 2

Good fight, unfortunately my stats in Clench Defense suck and I don't know the controls to defend it. Hopefully I'll correct that by the rematch.

[Matt Young]

Like I said, I was due after all those "you counter my bomb into your own and KO me" moves. But both fights I had today were good. Nate and I always have classics, and Matt was really cool and did well despite the stat differences.

Small Light Smurf over Brandon Haines TKO 4:47 in the 2nd round.


I knew I had to stay close to him because of his 103 standing kicks. My clinch game once again reigns supreme as I landed a good 15 uppercuts to the chin which eventually rocked him for the TKO.

People on here don't know how to get out of the single collar clinch?

[Matt Young]

You'd be surprised. Then again, I had just as much trouble with the Muay Thai clinch.

[Soodmeg]

Correction.

People on here dont know how to get out of my single collar clinch.

You just got here, dont assume you know things about everyone when you havent even played a match yet. Not to sound harsh but your comment just came off rather gamefaqs to me. We really try not to bash people here.

[Matt Young]

Well, it's not just your clinch. I speak from experience.

[whiptcracker]

I've had no problem getting out of clinches, but I'll say that Soodmeg's clinches are the exception to that rule. Except for when I was able to catch a single leg his clinches are nasty. I could do nothing otherwise to break it.

Small Light Smurf | Brandon Haines | TKO | 4:47 RD2

15? I think you landed more than that!! I felt like I got a few good hits in the standup, but you mounted easily on the ground which I was able to reverse a few times as well. However, that fucking clinch killed me! I tried to catch your punches/kicks, but your timing was great. I guess since the cpu and a lot of people I play online don't use it, I don't know an effective way to get out of it. The only ways are to catch a punch/kick or punch your way out of it right? Am I missing another technique to get out of it?

Good fight though, without your clinch the fight would have been a lot more even in my opinion!

No I was just asking because on the site where I fight at it's like everyone knows how to get out of the clinch. I was wondering because if they don't then there are some easy wins for me.

Jackie Chan | Cung Le | Unanimous Decision (30-26, 30-26, 30-25)

Felt like that close was a lot closer than what the scorecards said. The stand up consisted of both fighters picking their shots, while the ground game was back and forth with reversals and transitions. Late in the third, Jackie managed to knock the wind out of Le with a trip, but Le hung on and gained the full mount with twenty seconds left to go. Chan found the strength to survive the remainder of the fight and get the decision.

[cgarb84]

Jackie Chan | Cung Le | Decision (30-26, 30-25, 30-26)

Another decision loss under my belt. I think the fight was closer than those scores indicated though lol. The judges scoring is something I really hope they fix for next years game.

[whiptcracker]

The judges scoring is something I really hope they fix for next years game.

The more I have fights go to decision, the more I see this. Ground fighting is judged considerably lower than the stand up in the game for whatever reason.

[Matt Young]

That's why I've taken a couple losses in the 3rd and 5th rounds. I get fucked 9 times out of 10 in the decision, so I try to finish fights.

[Soodmeg]

Wow, played a couple random people online and I am really getting sick of all the "submission specialist" online. Every single person I face now has 95+ sub offense which would be fine if that didnt boil down to basically sub spamming fest.

Now I won all the matches but it wasnt even fun to spend 90% of the time spinning the damn stick around. I am still surprised at how many level 50+ guys still rely solely on subs to win matches and havent improved on much of anything. Hell I havent even seen a advanced sub since the game came out. People dont even try to get into better potions before going into a sub.


Sigh.....this league is the only reason why I still have this game.

[CAGLeagueSports]

Saginaw, MI (AP) - Reigning CAGFC Heavyweight Champion, Gary Russell's second successful title defense against I Am DrP1zza has sent DrP1zza reeling. The former title contender was seen yesterday in a nearby McDonald's filling out yet another job application.

When asked about his reason for being there, DrP1zza snarled and said "This country is a joke! Brack Obama says he's helpng me. He aint helping me! I'm just tired of it. I can't even win the CAGFC championship or get a job at McDonald's! I don't know what's harder: finding a girlfriend, winning the CAGFC championship, or getting a job at McDonald's.

All women care about is the money anyway! You don't believe me? YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME??? Well, how about I eat this cat food?! Is that enough to prove it to you?!? Does that make any sense?!? There! How you like that?"

Due to his continuous mental instability, I Am DrP1zza was released from his CAGFC contract, and replaced with...amazingly enough...Fedor Emelianenko! Wow, talk about trading garbage for gold! Just when you think he's going to go to the UFC, he ends up in CAGFC! Look for Emelianenko to make his debut at CAGFC10!


In other news, it now appears that there are two Ortiz's holding belts in CAGFC. As Eric Ortiz once again successfully defended his Middleweight title, his brother, Daniel, defeated Matt Cracker to take over the Light Heavyweight belt. Utilizing his ground game, Ortiz beat Cracker with a kimura submission at 1:48 of the third round.
CONGRATS DANIEL!

Your math is a bit off. vgchartz shows 1.3 for the 360 and 0.9 for the PS3...which gives you the total of 2.2. 13/22 = .59. So, it's only 59% of sales coming from the 360.

411Mania has run a couple tournaments that I've participated in, and they're having their first real card soon. But that's on a much smaller scale, and far less organized than this one. Plus it uses real UFC fighters.

Seen and Sood, I think I see what the problem is. Seen is talking about the amount of copies sold; Sood is talking about how many have shipped.

EDIT: Cracker beat me to it.

[Soodmeg]

Ha! Duuuhhh Soodmeg.

[n8rockerasu]

Either way, that's a good number.

Yeah, I agree with this. Either way, it's pretty impressive for a sport that EA said there was no market for just a short year ago (and said it wasn't even a sport). You really have to wonder what fighters/sponsors they're even going to have in their MMA game. What are they going to do? Make a Strikeforce game? Haha...the ONLY thing that could get me to buy that would be Gina Carano. Hell, they'd be better off putting her on the cover, rather than Randy.

All right guys, we've got about 24 hours to the deadline for CAGFC9. It looks like we've only got 3 fights that still need to be completed.

Michael Klein vs Joseph Garcia (LH)
Brandon Craig vs Shaun Parent (HW)
Ash Cambell vs Captain Caveman (LW Title)

Good job getting the other 11 fights completed guys, but let's try to get these last 3 done! I'm excited about getting to CAGFC10 (with new members even!). 2.5 months of steady weekly cards is a nice accomplishment, I think. Let's keep it going!

I see who is listed for each division, but which division do you guys think could most use a new fighter? I'm tempted to create another character for another weight class.

[n8rockerasu]

I see who is listed for each division, but which division do you guys think could most use a new fighter? I'm tempted to create another character for another weight class.

Well, honestly, they're more balanced now than they've ever been. So, really, whichever weight class fits your preferred fighting style. For instance, if you go through the Lightweight career, you'll face mostly Boxing/Wrestling guys. Middleweight has more Muay Thai/BJJ guys. And Light Heavyweight has several Kickboxing/BJJ guys. We're probably a little more varied in CAGFC, but just look at the fighters and see who you'd match up well against and enjoy fighting.

I wish the patch would get here. Despite winning 75% of my ranked matches, I don't want to do any more until the patch that bands 119 overalls and such is implemented.

Ah, that sucks guys. I'm going to have to give a forfeit to Captain Caveman. It's unfortunate, but since Tuff admitted he's been unavailable most of the week and only gave about 2 hours of time before the deadline to get the fight in, he'll have to take the blame for this one. As I've told others though, it's no big deal. In this sport, losses are easy to come back from.

CAGFC9 results have now been finalized, and the card for our milestone show, CAGFC10 will be posted tomorrow. We've had quite a few additions to the roster this past week, so there will be a good amount of fights on this card. It's going to be a great one! Stay tuned! :)

Patch has arrived!!!!!! but it shows DNF's even if your opponet quits. It says I have 46 DNF's and have never quit. Seems harder to score flash K.O.'s which is a good thing.
Happy fighting and a big Fuck You to you cheaters out in video game land you are busted .......Oh wait everyone has DNF's

[Regian]

Well guys, I am announcing my retirement from CAGFC. Hope to catch you guys around in other leagues.

[ip0nder]

It's Friday. New card yet?

[Tuffgong]

Boy, a forfeit for a title fight. Capt caveman came down with the flu?
I missed Whipt by about a half hour when I logged on at 10 and he missed me by 15 min at 230. I almost played a couple more ranked matches too.

Sorry I was out of the loop most of the week, but this week I will be on in the evenings for sure.
With the new patch out, I will be trying to rank up.
My first ranked match out the gate with the new patch, and the guy quit on me when I locked in a sub.
What an A-hole. Now at least we can see the quitters, has anyone else seen people with over 100% DNF?

Well its going to get better, the DNF are pre-patch. I have been quit on twice now after patch and it doesn't show new DNFs for me. The quitter gets a DNF and a loss. I think I get the win, but no points. Also the % is the big thing. If someone is over 20-30% DNF that can't be ALL other people dropping out on them, right?

[Soodmeg]

I cant get the patch until later but does it actually give me a win if someone quits? Because I should have around another 20-30 wins its I would hate see this continue.

I have heard DNF is messed up though beacuse it counted DNF for both parties pre patch. Like I said I had around 20-30 quits on me and I will be pissed if it shows me a high DNF. I have quit maybe 6 matches (all of which were vs 115 car that I wanted to see if I could still beat) so I know I have a little.

How is the ground reversal? That seemed almost at random before as you could block while in mid punch most of the time.

[CAGLeagueSports]

All right guys, sorry for the delay, but the card for CAGFC X: UNSTOPPABLE is now up! I would have just posted it last night when I finalized the CAGFC9 results (as it was finished and ready), but I waited because someone told me they wanted to make a banner for the milestone show. As of right now, I still don't have it though, and I can't hold up the card any longer.

Also, since the card was completed last night, Shaun Parent is on it. I appreciate him announcing his retirement the morning a new card is due to be posted. That's really helpful. I can only hope that he can find the time for this one last fight, so somebody doesn't get stuck without an opponent (especially since I went to extra lengths to make sure nobody had to sit for this card). Otherwise, we'd need a replacement of either Kimbo Slice, Jay Gillums, or Tyler Wilson to come off the shelf.

Minus that headache, CAGFC X is going to be a great show! We see the debut of our own Fedor Emelianenko against newcomer Matt Paulson. The return of Roy Jones Jr to once again take on Jason Hart. And some great title matchups, capped off by a blockbuster Light Heavyweight bout between new champion Daniel Ortiz and Small Light Smurf. Personally, I can't wait to see how these fights turn out!

The deadline for CAGFC X: UNSTOPPABLE fights is Thursday, 8/6 at 11:59 PM EDT.

What the hell? Why wouldn't they clear out all the DNF's since even the non-quitters got a DNF too pre-patch?

[whiptcracker]

What the hell? Why wouldn't they clear out all the DNF's since even the non-quitters got a DNF too pre-patch?

Yeah they didn't clear the previous DNFs which count for both fighters, which is weak. Also some folks on gamefaqs are saying that you only get wins if the person quits when they tap or get KOed...but most of the people I've had quit on me when they've been rocked or in the second parts of the submission animation. Plus if you get the win via DC the other person doesn't lose points against their level and you don't get any points to advance in levels either.

[n8rockerasu]

Plus if you get the win via DC the other person doesn't lose points against their level and you don't get any points to advance in levels either.

Well, not getting the points, I could understand. I've seen other sports games have that same problem. Basically, if a matchup is not completed, the game doesn't know how to assign the points. My guess is the logic THQ was using is this wouldn't be an issue because if people are receiving losses for quitting, they would stop quitting.

I'd really be shocked if the game didn't give you a win if people quit earlier in the fight though (ie. rocked or 2nd stage sub). The only reason I could see for that is that technically the fight isn't over, and the other person COULD still come back from that. But really, any time someone disconnects...at any point in the fight, they should receive a loss. Simple as that.

Even if your connection craps out three seconds into the fight, you should get a loss. It's tough luck, but it would be easier to justify that than allowing people to continue to be douchebags. I'm curious to see how it works when I hop on the game later tonight.

Try pm'ing your opponent, if he doesn't respond within 24hrs; post here asking him when is convenient.

Yeah, I messaged him on Xbox.

^And pm him by clicking his name on the OP?

[Raysor]

Tuffgong can we fight late tonight? Like 12 pm eastern time? I've got work until late everyday this weekend.

Of course, I'm the opponent. I hope I don't have another fight not happen.

Gary, I am going out to stay with some friends in Perris tonight and celebrate my birthday. Not sure what time I'll be home tomorrow, if at all, but I can play Sunday.

Also, happy 25th birthday to cgarb84. Maybe the fact that we were born 1 day apart is why our fights have been so close, LOL.

[Pure Apathy]

Matt, do you think my connection is good enough to play online with? I've played with you a few times here recently and was wondering how the lag was. I played a few matches last night and one guy accused me of having a lag switch.

I'd like to test a few matches against other people to see if my connection is good enough to participate in this. If it is, I'm going to make a fighter sometime soon. He'll either be a heavy or middleweight.

[Matt Young]

The lag wasn't any worse when playing you than it has been against some randoms. It is noticeable, though. I'd suggest trying a few fights with various CAGFC members who are on your friend list.

[Pure Apathy]

Ok, well if anyone wants to try doing a player match with me just send me a message on live.

[whiptcracker]

Ash Cambell l Jose Aldo l TKO 4:45 of R1

Punch, judo throw, mount, punch the ribs, repeat.

Jose made his displeasure clear after the fight with a simple comment "That was gay". But hey, when the opponent has 101 sub offense and defense, 103 kicking, all other striking in the 90s, 100 clinch offense, etc, you gotta do what you gotta do to win.

Be assured that I'll fight the match I was scheduled for on this card. I'll hit Matt up sometime to get it in.

Oh, and you're welcome.

[Mr Meaty28]

Simeon Lamhov | Bill Brasky | Submission(Kimura) | 4:45 in round 1

Good fight you were beating me standing so i just took you down.

[whiptcracker]

Screw the patch. 2nd fight I played tonight ranked and someone was still able to use an overpowered CAF, who I had rocked and quit. No win for me, no loss for him. Certainly didn't improve lag as I had another fight that was in super slow motion but I didn't want to quit that match despite the fact that the introductions took 9 minutes because I don't want a higher DNF percentage (which is 15% because of all the people who quit on me prior to the patch!).

So I decide to play unranked and the other player quits during the submission.

It might be time to trade this in. I can deal with losing, but I'm not going to waste time chasing a black belt achievement when quitting is such an issue.

[Soodmeg]

Ha! Cracker I just got my blackbelt like last month. If you went back a couple pages you could see my post.

It was crazy I was unofficially at like 132 wins but from all the quits I had like 98 recorded. It took me a full week to get 2 wins because every time I was winning people would quits. I dont know how many wins you are at now but keep at it, dont let them get the best of you. Although it didnt get much better the higher you are ranked I am 57 and all I run into is Sub guys who quit when I punch them in the chin.


Also my DNF is crazy high in my opinion from only quitting like 5 matches (all against 115 CAF) its at like 17%

I mean, madden is coming out, CODMW2 is coming out and L4D2. UFC is living on borrowed time. Its a shame beacuse the game is solid but the design is just so horrid. I was going to make a new HW guy today but after like 4 matches and 54 loading screens I gave up.

[ip0nder]

Nick Sutera | Captain Caveman | Submission (Guillotine choke) | 4:44 of Round 2

[whiptcracker]

I dont know how many wins you are at now but keep at it, dont let them get the best of you. Although it didnt get much better the higher you are ranked I am 57 and all I run into is Sub guys who quit when I punch them in the chin.

63-22 and level 56. I totally believe it took two weeks for two fights, in the 50's the quitting is so crazy that I've just been doing player matches. I'm just sick of it, since I'd be at least near 90 wins if it wasn't for the people quitting. I was hoping the patch would fix it, but they made flash KO's less frequent, but no penalty when quitting while rocked or 2nd sub animation. Hell I love the flash KO because it happens so fast they don't have time to quit.

[Raysor]

Brendan Raysor | Mach Sakurai | North South Choke | 4:09 of Rd 2

Good fight.

[Soodmeg]

63-22 and level 56.

What the fuck? Someone please explain the ranking system to me beacuse I am at a lost. I am something like 125-44 online with only 5 quits maybe (all vs 115 CAF) and have never back away from any rating.

How in the hell can I only be 1 level higher than you when I have won twice as many matches has you? I see this all the time that the other 57 rated players have much lower records than I do. I dont get it...I dont get it one bit.

^Soodmeg, you sound like a great videogame player. Save yourself aggravation and don't over analyze video-games critically as they all have bugs and flaws.

What are you talking about? Dude, I am not a 15 year old kid throwing controllers when anything goes wrong. I comment on observations in video games because they are my hobby the same as I make comments about the NBA.

You need to stop making assumptions about people. You dont know who I am, all you know is a internet persona that comments on video games because I in the camp on not putting my entire life on the web and we are on a video game forum.

But I dont need your internet physiology, trust me I am well adjusted. Thanks for the concern though.

[Soodmeg]

Also, raysor.

You just got here man, calm down. This is the 2nd time you have made a slightly attacking post to someone else in the thread. Its fine if you would like to be a part of our league but as a whole we usually dont like to attack other members for the site....unless you are in the OTT.

This isnt a paid league so we are not looking for top quality graphics (although I think the cards look fine n8) either join the fun without ripping on things are get leave.

Once again, this isnt gamefaqs.

[ip0nder]

What's OTT?

[Ultimate Matt X]

moojuice, I'll be around most of this afternoon if you want to try and get our fight in. If not I won't be around in the evening, but tomorrow should be good.

For once, I almost agree with Soodmeg 100% ;)

Really, it's not like he gets anything for making the cards, and NO ONE has ever complained. Hell, even people that quit are willing to stay around for a week to finish their fights.

Edit:

Cool Matt, I should be able to hop on this afternoon. Are you going to be around online, or do you want to set up a time?

[n8rockerasu]

Yeah, that was just a quick response because I was tired and on my way to bed. Here's the bottom line. You don't come to a new place and fucking tell people how to run it. I'll never understand why people think that's ok, but obviously it happens. It's basically the same shit M-1 is trying to do to the UFC. It leads me to believe you're either 14 years old...or a crazy Russian.

If you guys have such a hard on for UOC (which I know is where Mrmeaty, Raysor, and ip0nder wandered over from), then just stay over there. While I like their overall site design, I'm not some 14 year old nerd on summer vacation, with time to make an entire website for a video game. And personally, I don't think their graphics are any better. Most of them look like a Starship Trooper fucked a warp brush.

This is Cheap Ass Gamer. The people here are here for more reasons than this single game, and have been here 20 times longer than this game has even been out. Doing this league was just a fun, organized way for a bunch of guys who already knew each other to enjoy UFC 2009. If you're just going to come in here and bitch about stuff, then I invite you again to take UOC's warp brush, and go fuck yourself.

I agree n8. When I came here it was only for this league(never heard of this site). But now I check out alot of the other forums here. The deals they post and I'm gonna start trading here instead of gamestop. I see where n8 is coming from It looks like he's been here a long time and doesn't wanna take shit from a punk 14 yr. old kid. He runs a great league so just enjoy.

Point system. A lot of my wins have been against higher level guys (extra points), plus I stopped their streaks (bonus points), or I was on a streak (was on a 20 win streak once which was a lot of extra points), not to mention trophies (point multiplier). Losing means you lose points. Our win/loss ratio is about the same so the game has us in a similar skill level.

[whiptcracker]

It doesn't make it not gay. I hope we get a rematch so I can knee your teeth through the back of your skull. Have a good day!

If you can stay on your feet for long enough you mean.

[Tuffgong]

Man 2 losses against 2 newcomers.
Rough night.
Both were good fights and battles on the feet, with absolute wars on the ground.
I guess I have a soft spot for boxers with 115 striking and 115 sub offense.
I really haven't spent much time playing against CAFs except on this league, and so far
everyone has had pretty realistic/average stats. But enough crying, quality wins for quality fighters; I've got to get training, those fights definately showed me some holes in my game.
When I play ranked online its only against UFC fighters, so I'm not so used to the mini/maxed stats.

I can still go 1-2 this week if I can squeak out a win against Matt Cracker. Hopefully he plays drunk sometimes, because I don't think I've won against him yet :) .

[whiptcracker]

If you're on tonight, then I'm pretty sure I'll be playing under the influence.

[Ultimate Matt X]

Cool Matt, I should be able to hop on this afternoon. Are you going to be around online, or do you want to set up a time?

I'm on the computer now and will try to come here to CAG and check XBL from the computer to see if you send any messages. I'll do that for awhile or if you have a time just let me know and I'll reply back to let you know if I'm available. I'll be around for the next 3 hours or so I think.

I apologize. You're right. You haven't said anything. But I guess the fact that the three of you joined around the same time, and Raysor even specifically said hey to you (making it appear that he knows you), caused me to lump you in together. So far, MrMeaty (in his first attempt at joining...when he told us we should get a new website) and Raysor have started trouble. I hope we don't see the same from you.

I've gotten so many incredible deals thanks to this site (my most recent being getting the ION Drum Rocker for $23 out of pocket). If people would take the time to look around the site, rather than telling us how to change things, they might actually like it here.

Seriously; I really have no problem people making their own better logo's. When you make negative comments without showing your own work or offering constructive criticism you are asking for a hard-time.

N8 has never once asked me to do them; I volunteer because it makes leagues like this more interesting. Yes they aren't always "pro" looking but like N8, I have other things to do rather than toil over a graphic.

Anyone want me to make the CAGFC Cards and stuff. No offense but they look pretty sloppy.

I see a show of arrogance (trying to take over a job that's already filled and has had no problems since long before you were here) and an insult ("they look pretty sloppy"). If you don't see how that makes you come off as a huge prick, I can't help you. Maybe you'll understand when you're older.

I don't know why, but I have been trying to catch head kicks way early now, despite seeing them from a mile away. I must have took at least 15 to the head the match with Ortiz. Even against n8 in a few spars, I've been doing the same thing.

That's not what I remember for your stats, but if that is the case then sorry for saying your stats were higher. I don't think I was being defensive, though, a little whiny maybe, but not defensive :D

[Raysor]

Yea I wasn't talking to you about the defensive stuff. Just to the people in general on this forums.

[Mr Meaty28]

I wont be her aug 2-9

[n8rockerasu]

I wont be her aug 2-9

Ok, well you already completed your match for this week, so you're good for now. The CAGFC11 card will be posted on 8/7 and the fights won't be due till 8/13. Do you want on that card?

[Soodmeg]

Wow, this thread got derailed like a mo fo.

[n8rockerasu]

What did you buy that was $280 originally?

Yeah, it was the ION Rock Band drums. I saved roughly 95% off retail, hahaha. That's the first time I've calculated the percentage. That's fucking awesome, lol. :)

[n8rockerasu]

Anyone want me to make the CAGFC Cards and stuff. No offense but they look REALLY AWESOME!!!!!

haha, nice. Good way to save face. Just focus on fighting, and enjoy the rest of what CAG has to offer. It's a great site.

[Vulcan2422]

I've got 92 striking and 95(ish) Sub offense.




And why do you guys get so defensive about stuff?

I think it's cause we are a very close knit group around here. We all really decided to trade in our NHL 09 for UFC as a fall through till NHl 10 comes out. I mean we actually really all decided that as a general SEX PANTHERS group.

If people would take the time to look around the site, rather than telling us how to change things, they might actually like it here.

QFT Nate.

haha, nice. Good way to save face. Just focus on fighting, and enjoy the rest of what CAG has to offer. It's a great site.

It really is. I never venture into the OTT (over the top) or as I call it the OT (Off Topic) Forums. I mostly venture here, DVD stuff and deals. That's it though. But I love it here none the less and close to a few people here. Especially Matt, Nate, Alan and a few others.

BACK ON TOPIC - Anytime during the day is good for me Matt. Except Monday. Maybe Tomorrow or Tuesday. Just let me know buddy.

[Tuffgong]

Matt Cracker | Zippy D-Pinhead | Sub (triangle) | 2:30 Round 3

Very nice fight toe to toe on the feet. Back and forth on the ground, a lot of nice reversals and transitions. I got off a couple of nice flying knees to the face, and even a couple of knockdowns. That got me excited to go in for the kill, and of course I got caught in a deep triangle with no stamina. Then I went to sleep smelling Matt Crackers sack.
Good fight whipt1 !

[Soodmeg]

Pmed my opponent yesterday and got no response. Have been on all day playing Stranglehold and havent seen him.

[Mr Meaty28]

yeah sure ill be able to do it by 8/13

[n8rockerasu]

yeah sure ill be able to do it by 8/13

All right, then no worries. You timed your trip perfectly.

Rematch was excellent as well, it was similar but this time I wore myself out with kicks and got subbed.

But I must announce my retirement, I traded the game in just a minute ago. I wasn't really playing it except for CAGFC, and I'm not going to stick it out until they fix the online. I hope they'll do so with next years version. Thanks Nate for running this league, you did a great job with lining up all of the cards and because of the league I got more of my moneys worth out of the game.

It's been fun, thanks you guys.

[n8rockerasu]

In his CAGFC debut...

Fedor Emelianenko | Matt Paulson | KO | 3:25 of Rd 2

Paulson did a great job picking his shots and keeping Fedor at a distance. But in the end, Emelianenko's strength was just too much. After gaining mount and being continously blocked in the first round, Fedor narrowly escaped 2 kimura attempts from Paulson. As the fighters broke at the end of the round, the fight was pretty even. In the second round, Fedor again gained mount, and this time was able to rain down some heavy hands and rock Paulson. One punch later, the fight was over.

Good fight though, Dead EditHer! Your BJJ had me worried and those kimura attempts had me banging my controller like a madman. Thanks for the fight.

[Raysor]

Did anyone see that Fedor and the M-1 $$$s wouldn't accept the UFC offer?

[Tuffgong]

Yeah, its too bad. They are stuck on wanting to co-promote the PPVs. They want to split the cost and profits for the whole event, which is just crazy. I guess he will be back to Japan fighting fringe guys and cans. I don't think Strikeforce can or wants to pay out what he thinks he's worth.

[Raysor]

He used to be number 1 in my P4P. But now he is number 5, just because he's afraid of the UFC.

[n8rockerasu]

This was posted over in the MMA thread in the OTT, but I thought it applied here. For you guys who think the flash KO's are/were ridiculous in this game, check this out.

Moral of the story? It happens. :)

[Matt Young]

Gary, not sure if you got my message last night sicne you said you couldn't hear the first and you never responded to the second. I was at a friend's house and didn't have my game. I ended up spending 3 days in 4 different cities celebrating my birthday with different people. It was crazy.

As for Monday, what about Monday night if you can't play during the day? Regian, what times are good for you?

[FowlBeast]

DrumRoll please.......Fedor Just signed with strikeforce! It won't be a Lesnar fight but they boast a good heavy weight division. The plus side is StrikeForce is free, as long as you have Showtime.

Yeah, now we'll see what this co-promotion shit does for Strikeforce. I still wonder how the hell everyone M-1 co-promotes with ends up going out of business, and yet they're still going strong. I thought it was supposed to be an equal partnership. It's sad that possibly the best fighter in the sport has the worst management in the sport.

[FowlBeast]

I agree Fedor needs new management. I hope M-1 doesn't fuck up StrikeForce they have good fighters and put together great cards. If their smart they'll be around.(hopefully)

It was definetly a good fight, I have been working on submissions, so next time we meet, your ass is going down.:) Anyway, just a heads up I'm going to the beach this weekend and won"t be near my box, so i'll catch you guys next weekend.

Does this mean you don't want to be on the CAGFC11 card? Cards are always posted on a Friday, but the deadline for fights to be finished isn't until the following Thursday by 11:59 PM EDT.

[n8rockerasu]

cgarb, let me know when you want to get our fight in. I'll be around pretty much the rest of today. Tomorrow, I probably won't be around much until 7pm edt, but after that would work too. If you've got a time in mind, just let me know.

[Regian]

I'll be online tonight for sure. I'll be getting home from work around 10:30ET.

[Soodmeg]

Still havent heard anything from my opponent.

[Regian]

Hey Matt, gimme a little extra time on the deal. My nephews are in from Iowa and want some Wii time. So once they get done, I'll be on.

Sorry to be a hassle, man.

[n8rockerasu]

Nate Lisa | Cung Le | KO | 1:35 of Rd 1

Damn...I thought the patch made flash KO's less frequent. I caught cgarb with a couple superman punches and a spinning backfist early in the round, but the critical blow was landed when after fleeing from Cung Le's barrage of punches in close, we both went for a superman punch at nearly the same time. Back to my old ways, mine got off first, and floored Le. Good fight cgarb. I wish it would have went a little longer, but at least the KO punch looked painful, haha.

[cgarb84]

Nate Lisa | Cung Le | KO at 1:35 of Round 1

Yeah that fight kind of sucked. I think we had our last fight end the same exact way. I guess I just have some bad timing haha.

Well at least it can't happen again as I am announcing my retirement for both of my fighters. My fighters aren't very well equipped at this point in the league and I am continually getting my ass handed to me. I don't play UFC much at all anymore, and with Madden coming out next week it's just not going to happen. Thanks to the people I fought and had good fights with, some good stuff in there. But this is a wrap for this year's game. Maybe I will give it another go next year.

[Dead EditHer]

Oh, didn't know the deadline was thursday. I'll be back home sunday, so go ahead and schedule me on the next card.

[MSUHitman]

Jason Hart d. Roy Jones Jr. via KO 1:22 of Round 2.

Both fighters felt each other out in the first round. In round 2 more standing strikes were exchanged with Hart and Jones trading advantages in the single-arm clinch back and forth, until Hart gained the upper hand and rained in 5 consecutive uppercuts, the final one knocking out Jones.

Nice game Seen. I've got more wins than Glass Joe now so I'm happy. :)

[Raysor]

So in the first post, Where it lists the fighters. Are those the rankings? Or just a list?

Damn, we are loosing a lot of people in the league. 10 cards isnt bad though.

I also think I am kinda on the end of my rope...madden, COD, L4D2 are all coming out pretty soon and like others have said I only play this game for the league. I cant really justify keeping a game to play once a week.

I was going to wait around for a couple more cards but I want to get the most value for this game. So, this next fight will be my retirement fight, if I can ever get a hold of my opponent.

Thanks N8 you did a great job with the league, THQ kinda let us down with the shallow career mode and not support online like they should. Maybe next year we cant set up a better one that will last longer than the summer. I didnt think this game would last through the summer and it made it 3/4 of the way so thats not bad.

[n8rockerasu]

So in the first post, Where it lists the fighters. Are those the rankings? Or just a list?

Yeah, those are rankings. They sometimes get updated as fights are completed, but are ALWAYS updated before the newest card is posted.

Damn, we are loosing a lot of people in the league. 10 cards isnt bad though.

Well, cgarb has been here since the beginning, and his fighters were some of the first created...back before everyone knew how to utilize points properly (it's kinda like the early days of UFC, haha). His only real chance for staying competitive is probably to go through career mode again. And it's understandable if he doesn't want to do that.

For you though, Soodmeg, you're just now getting a title shot. So, in my opinion, your Small Light Smurf fighter is really just peaking. Obviously, it's your decision if you want to trade the game in, and if you need the money, by all means, don't let me stop you. But at the same time, I think your match with Daniel Ortiz will be a great one, and could set you up for some incredible fights in the next few weeks.

I know you've had trouble getting in touch with him though, so I'll send him a PM and see if we can make that fight happen asap. Ultimately, only you know if you're done with the game, but I would point out that we actually had 4 new fighters sign up last week, so even with cgarb retiring his guys, membership is technically on the rise.

[seen]

Good fight MSUHitman, I was playing well; unfortunately since I haven't gotten a TV yet at my new place I had to play musical chairs and deal with other distractions at the 'rents in the 2nd. I still hold the fight series 2-1, maybe these two will cross paths again.

AP - After Jason Hart destroyed Roy Jones Jr. for the first time in their trilogy, Jones seemed like a shell of himself.

When asked by the media what was next for him with his 2-4 record, he quickly responded "you haven't seen the last of Roy Jones, I may have lost a few steps but I have since gotten with some world class MMA trainers and hope to return in the future. I am taking a few months off to spend some time with my family and see if MMA is my sport.

We spotted Kimbo Slice in sparing in the 305 camp who also had surprising news. Slice announced "My wife has just given birth to our 7th child and I am going to have to postpone my next fight until further notice."

The law offices of Cheapy Inc. which represent Slice and Jones, have recommended to CAGFC CEO N8 White to contact Brett Rogers and Bas Rutten whom the firm also works with."

Name: Brett "The Grim" Rogers
Height: 6-5
Weight: 235
Fighting Styles: Muay Thai

Name: Bas "El Guapo" Rutten
Height: 6-1
Weight: 205
Fighting Styles: Kickboxing/Wrestling

Overall Ratings:
Kimbo Slice 89, Roy Jones 87, Manny Pacquiao 90

To be clear, I'm temporarily retiring Slice and Jones so I can use my Rogers and Rutten CAF's.

[Regian]

Sorry, Matt. It's 1AM here, and I've got stuff to do. Tried messaging you while you were watching Netflix, didn't get a response.

We'll have to try for Tuesday night.

Oh, yeah, I have my options set so that notifications are disabled when a movie is being watched. I had no idea that you wanted to play since you hadn't responded to me in the thread. I fell asleep during Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, anyway.

Tonight should be fine. Just let me know what time frame you can play in.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? You know what, I'm not gonna $$$ you out on that one... yet. :lol:

Same deal as last night, I should be home around 10:30 EST, nephews are still here so there's a chance of a hostile takeover before they go to bed. I should be available the whole night, though.

[Matt Young]

Okay. I can be on at 10:30 Eastern. I'll check for you then. If you're unavailable due to the nephews, we can probably play later on. I've been getting to sleep early by my standards, but it's still not that early.

As for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, I'd never seen it. I just realized it was on instant streaming for Netflix, and recently, Conan was talking with some actor on the Tonight Show and they discussed how trippy it was. I wanted to see for myself. I think I only made it an hour into the film, however,

They failed to mention you need to be messed up to experience it; lol.

[JJSP]

Anyone know anything about a UFC Find It On Demand contest from Time Warner? They sent a copy of UFC 2009 to my girlfriend's mom's house as a prize from watching UFC Undisputed 2009 on Time Warner's Find It On Demand - except she's 57, Vietnamese, and doesn't know what UFC is. Google showed me zero results of any such sweepstakes.

[Matt Young]

That is pretty crazy. But hey, free game! Join the league!

[Matt Young]

*plays for the first time since patch*

HOLY SHIT I can tap the computer on Expert now! I also got the "World Class Grappler" achievement on Beginner in less than a minute using a guy with a 71 submission offense.

Now I can do a third career and win submission of the night to complete my trophy case.

Gary, I wasn't on when you messaged me. When will you be back on?

[n8rockerasu]

Gary, I wasn't on when you messaged me. When will you be back on?

Don't you have to win all the trophies in one career? I finished up my Fedor career and still didn't get it even though I had 10 wins via submission...and not a single freaking Submission of the Night award. I had like 9 KO of the Night's though...and 5 Fight of the Night's.

The other thing I wondered is do you only have to get one of each to get the achievement, because if you notice there are spots for 10 Sub of the Night and 10 KO of the Night trophies...and getting awards in 2/3 of your fights seems almost impossible to me.

[Matt Young]

I think there are only 5 spots for each, but I was wondering the same thing.

[n8rockerasu]

I think there are only 5 spots for each, but I was wondering the same thing.

No, there's 10. I thought it was only 5 at first too, but if you go through them, you'll notice there's a 2nd row. That's how I ended up earning 9 KO of the Night trophies, and still had one empty spot left. I can't imagine the game would expect you to have every single spot filled. Although, if that's the case, I'll just move that achievement to the "never gonna get it" category.

[whiptcracker]

Only one of each. I had a couple fight/ko awards but just one sub and I got the achievement.

[Regian]

Gail Pennyfeather | Shaun Parent | KO | Round 1 (Forgot time, lost it when my router hiccuped)

I'm retiring my heavyweight fighter effective now. However, I'm not retiring from the league as a whole. I'm contemplating about creating a light heavyweight and going into that division. So, I'm out for a little bit, not out entirely.

Like I told Matt a bit ago, I have no immediate plans to trade this game in. I'm gonna hang on to it for a little while longer.

EDIT: Whoop. Wrong round.

[Matt Young]

Thank God for that. (in response to whiptcracker)

Anyhow, I finished my fight with Regian. It's too bad he's leaving the CAGFC, but he said he's keeping the game so there is a chance that he may come back with a different fighter later on. But the fight was admittedly pretty one sided, as I was fortunate enough to land a few big shots to the head and get in some good striking and a knockdown with the clinch uppercuts.

Gail Pennyfeather l Shaun Parent l TKO l 4:10 of Round 1

EDIT: Well, Shaun basically said what I said and beat me to it, though the round he listed wasn't correct. I guess that doesn't really matter much, though.

[CAGLeagueSports]

Thanks Regian for sticking around to get that last fight in! I really appreciate it, man. Hope to see you back with another fighter in the future! :)

[Matt Young]

Woo, top contender status for Gail Pennyfeather! Never doubt a gay black Swedish man in a fight!

EDIT: Just saw the post where cgarb retired. That sucks; we had 2 great fights. Now I will never get a shot at revenge. Man, middleweight's down to only 5 guys. We used to be in the double digits.

Yeah, I know. Ultimate Matt X was asking which division he should create a fighter for next, and at the time, I told him we were pretty balanced, so whichever division he felt comfortable in. Although, now MW seems to be hurting. Although, WW and LW are about the same. Even HW is a bit misleading because 3 fighters are currently sitting.

In my opinion, the competition is just starting to get really good. People who didn't create new fighters or re-do their original ones will probably get left behind, but that's just the evolution of the game. LHW has been really competitive since we started, and HW and WW are really heating up. Somebody has to step up and give Eric Ortiz a test at 185 though. Dude has had the belt for almost 2 months, haha.

EDIT - Oh, and regarding your description of Pennyfeather...never turn your back on him either! ;)

[Matt Young]

I have no idea how I'll do in my match against Gary's Jason Miller, but I hope to contend for the middleweight belt sooner rather than later. Gary and I could have quite the rivalry, you know, facing each other this week in one class and (presumably) next week in another.

Also, now that the patch is out, I'll do a 3rd career even though I have 80 billion other games I should be playing instead. Now to decide on which guy/class to make. I have a few in mind...

[Soodmeg]

Thanks N8 for the encouragement. I have been thinking pretty hard about it but I guess the final answer will come when its time to pick up madden. I am on a tight budget for the summer so if I dont have the money that I will have to but if I can afford to keep both maybe I will.

As for today, my girl is at some teacher workshop, I dont have work and my week has been hell. I am doing nothing but playing games and watching movies (on my xbox as well) so anytime my opponent is ready he can jump on.

[gamcreator]

I tried PMing my opponent with no luck. Hopefully he sees it by tonight/early tomorrow!

[Vulcan2422]

You know the deal Matt. I'm usually up at 10:00 am EST so thats 7:00 your time. I'll be on till about 6:00 today then I go for my run and I'm usually back at around 8 ish.

[CAGLeagueSports]

Hey guys, just posting a reminder that the deadline for your CAGFC10 fights is less than 24 hours away. We've still got 4 fights that need to be completed.

Brandon Haines vs Joseph Garcia (LH)
Michael Klein vs Jeremy Hill (LH)
Jason Miller vs Matt Young (MW)
Daniel Ortiz vs Small Light Smurf (LH Title)

Let's try to get these fights in guys. These are some big match ups that could greatly influence the next card.

[Matt Young]

Gary and I can't seem to meet up. I was gone all weekend, and since then we haven't been on at the same time. I waited for 3 hours last night at a time he said he'd be on, only to have a message waiting for me today from a short time after I signed off saying he won't be available much today. :-\

I hope we get this done, because neither of us deserve a forfeit loss.

We will get this done tonight. I sent ya a PM. But if it comes down to it, I'll take the loss gladly. If the damn car wasn't taken up so much of my time, It would be alot easier.

[Matt Young]

No, you have been trying; we just haven't been available at the same time. I saw your PM after I posted. I can play then.

Jeremy Hill - Micheal Klien - Unanimous Decision(29-28 all) 5:00 of 3rd

[MikeBike]

Really enjoyed that fight. was a extremely strategic fight. Felt that I had won it but thats what I get for having it go to the judges

[Soodmeg]

Alright, for some reason my opponent and I just couldnt meet up this week. I was on from about 6:30 until 9pm and I am about to watch a movie and then to bed for work tomorrow.

Dont fret too much because I will just take this time to official retire. N8 thanks for the encouragement but I just cant do it. I only play this game for the league and if I cant meet up with a opponent then I just went a week without even putting it into my disc drive.

Guys, thanks for everything it was a fun ride while it lasted. I am still going to pop in and out of here just to see whats going on.

All right, man. Well, it was good to have you here. Hope you enjoy Madden this year. I tried out the demo earlier and I just wasn't feeling it. For some reason, it didn't feel that different from last year to me (it probably didn't help that the game was in the snow). Glad I'm not bothering with that game this year, haha :)

[sleepy180]

sood you were on 22 minutes ago. I just got home from work so if you see this, i'll be off and on all night. If you don't want to fight anymore, thats cool though. Just let me know. Sorry we couldn't find each other, just wierd times for us both.

[Vulcan2422]

Jason Mayhem Miller is Forfeiting this match. I will have to take him and stick with my HW untill my car is done. Suck but I rather focus on one then just have to deal with two. Once I'm done with the car I will be back in full force.

So, Miller is on hiatus? Is that what you're saying? I'm working on the next card and I want to make sure I'm understanding you right.

[Matt Young]

I just messaged you back on Live, Gary. You must have signed on right after I got off, because I was playing Fallout until 11 your time. I just saw the message on Xbox.com, but between you being offline since sending it, and that last post, getting the fight done doesn't seem likely. I hope you finish that car soon because (A) you rock and (B) we need middleweights. I guess we at least get to play each other on the upcoming card, though that may not be good for me.

"Its with a heavy heart that I must announce my retirement from CAGFC. I have had highs and lows and felt that I gave all I could to the sport. From my early rivalry with Matt Cracker to my successful title defenses. Id like to thank all the fans for their support but it is time I hang up my gloves." - Michael Klein

Id like to take this oppurtunity to announce the retirement of Michael Klein from the Light Heavyweight division. I really enjoyed playing the light heavyweight division and figured it was time to retire him since he was my first career character ever. I had some good rivalries, fights and even had the belt for a while.

Id now like to introduce my new fighter. The cousin of Michael Klein all the way from Berling, Germany!

Name: Kyler Klein

"Its with a heavy heart that I must announce my retirement from CAGFC. I have had highs and lows and felt that I gave all I could to the sport. From my early rivalry with Matt Cracker to my successful title defenses. Id like to thank all the fans for their support but it is time I hang up my gloves." - Michael Klein

Id like to take this oppurtunity to announce the retirement of Michael Klein from the Light Heavyweight division. I really enjoyed playing the light heavyweight division and figured it was time to retire him since he was my first career character ever. I had some good rivalries, fights and even had the belt for a while.

Id now like to introduce my new fighter. The cousin of Michael Klein all the way from Berling, Germany!

*sigh* I don't mean to be a dick, man, but here we go again. I just posted a couple hours ago that I was starting to work on the next card. I come back to post it, and see one of the fighters I put on it has retired, and been replaced by a new fighter. I don't want to discourage the creation of new fighters at all because I appreciate it, as opposed to just dropping out, and I think it'll extend the life of the game for you. But is there any way you can hold off Michael Klein's retirement by one week?

The dilemma it creates this week is that by dropping Michael Klein, the LH division becomes odd, and forces another fighter to sit. And by adding a WW, that division becomes odd, and forces someone to sit. Seen PM'd me earlier saying he's getting his new TV this week, so he'll be back for CAGFC12, which will even up the LH's again.

And at least with a week's notice, I can plan ahead which WW to sit. I generally like to make sure everybody has a fight, meaning if one person has two fighters and somebody else only has one...the guy with two sits one of his. That way, everybody gets to fight. And no offense, but I really don't want to go back through all of this again at 2:40 in the morning. You'd be doing me a favor by letting Michael Klein fight one last time. Hope you can see where I'm coming from. Thanks.

The CAGFC X results have been finalized. There were 3 fights that didn't get completed and forfeits were handed out accordingly. The biggest of these fights was the Light Heavyweight Championship bout between Daniel Ortiz and Small Light Smurf. Based on effort and availability, I had to give Ortiz a forfeit for that one.

I don't like to have the title change hands as a result of a forfeit (and with SLS retiring anyway, it didn't really matter), but I also felt Ortiz needed some kind of consequence for having to forfeit. The most fair thing I could think of was to strip him of the belt. HOWEVER, I also didn't want to be too harsh, as he's still a top contender and deserves another shot. Therefore, he will face Matt Cracker at CAGFC11, in a battle for the now vacated title.

Look for a special announcement and the card for CAGFC11 tomorrow, after some minor details are worked out. It's going to be a doozy! :)

N8rocker, after this week's card, please put my fighter on hiatus. I'm going to trade in UFC soon because it's worth $33.75 at Gamestop right now with Power Trade plus Edge and I need money to pay for CoD: MW2 Hardened Edition (can't spring $150 for Prestige.)

I may be back later on if I can get UFC for cheap and I'll just restart my fighter at that time as I don't think I'll be able to go through career mode again. I can't justify turning away $34 when I only play this game once per week.

[Vulcan2422]

So, Miller is on hiatus? Is that what you're saying? I'm working on the next card and I want to make sure I'm understanding you right.

Apparently working on the car and getting a big ass knot in my foot from hitting the engine at least 3 times, I fell asleep so fast I Couldn't recheck the thread. lol. But yes, This is what I'm saying for now.

Hey nate, if you want to give me a week or so, I'm currently developing a welterweight fighter as we speak. I'll try to have him ready ASAP. I'll let you know when he is ready to roll, it won't be long.

Sorry to break it to you but two pages back:


But I must announce my retirement, I traded the game in just a minute ago. I wasn't really playing it except for CAGFC, and I'm not going to stick it out until they fix the online. I hope they'll do so with next years version. Thanks Nate for running this league, you did a great job with lining up all of the cards and because of the league I got more of my moneys worth out of the game.

It's been fun, thanks you guys.

All right, that's cool. Thanks for the notice.

Ok, well, let me know whenever he's ready.

Sorry to break it to you but two pages back:

Ah, god dammit. How did I miss that? I feel like I saw it, but it just didn't register. Well, I guess that makes the Michael Klein retiring point moot. All right. All fucking bets are off. I'll be juggling some spots on the card. Stay tuned.

[DarkTower80]

Nate, after this upcoming card I will be retiring my fighter as well. I don't think I will be playing this much more after Madden comes out. Thanks for all your work on this league. It got me most of the way from NHL 09 to 10. I certainly got my moneys worth on UFC thanks to this league.

All right, after much anticipation, CAGFC is finally making its return to foreign soil! Because of a few passport issues, and Heavyweight Champion Gary Russell receiving a full cavity search due to a "suspicious smell" (as reported by top contender Gail Pennyfeather...who curiously insisted that he be present for the cavity search...), CAGFC11 is getting a bit of a late start. But I'm happy to announce that everything has now been approved. So, put on some ABBA and cover your rectums! We're going to Sweden, ja!

As always, you'll find the card for CAGFC11 in the OP.
Fights will be due by Thursday, August 13th, at 11:59PM EDT

gamcreator/Brandon Haines,
When do you want to do our fight? My copy of UFC is already at Gamestop and I'm going to have to borrow a copy from a friend to get this fight in so I need some advance notice.

Barring any problems with my podcast, I can fight any night after 7 p.m. central except for Sunday. I could also fight anytime on Thursday.

[Matt Young]

Oh crap, 2 title shots? I knew about the Pennyfeather one only.

Gail Pennyfeather issued a statement today saying that it will be an honor to fight for the title in his native Sweden. Pennyfeather left Sweden to go to Montreal as there were no fighting organizations in his country, so this will be his first professional fight in his home land (not counting, of course, the countless amateur bouts in bath houses nationwide).

I love the banner, by the way.
