Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 19, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 Ha, well it's probably better this way. To avoid the bellyaching  Yeah, I'd go with that. Just amend the title to reflect the next event like we did with the WEC & Strikeforce threads I reckon.  Yeah OK then, I'll leave it another day or two until talk of this show dies off, then I'll rename the thread and I'll keep the subtitle updated with whatever the next card is.  Who's that Dave?

Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 i dont see what harm a new thread does? the old ones die off quick enough, but whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members herbie747 Posted August 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 i dont see what harm a new thread does? the old ones die off quick enough, but whatever  I agree - I like reading Wand's intro posts on Page 1.  C'mon lads - don't be gay! There'll be no wrath form Neil, since we're allowed 1 thread per show! This one will bugger off after a day anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Who's that Dave? That right there is mod Neil. Not a man to be trifled with obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members lambyUK Posted August 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 If I'm honest I prefer the separate threads. However, perhaps combine this with the condit and Kampmann card and then have normal service resume. In reality, there are no more shows than they had before. Fox Sports 1 are basically replacing the FX cards and FS2 replacing Fuel. After this initial launch period it will die down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Egg Shen Posted August 19, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 19, 2013 Phantom Cam highlights  i aint a big fan of them cutting to the Phantom Cam during the fights, it looks weird and messes with the continuity of the fight, but as a feature it's very cool, and the highlights from it are amazing.

Fox Sports 1 are basically replacing the FX cards and FS2 replacing Fuel. After this initial launch period it will die down. Â I was more thinking about the two shows a week apart. Aug 28th with Condit vs Kampmann and Sep 4th with Glover vs Bader. With TUF starting the same night, which will be another thread. Â I don't know. I don't want to "be gay" as Herbie said (not that there's anything wrong with that). Just thought it might save us the inevitable, recurring circular debate that there's too many MMA threads popping up. And now I know what Neil looks like I don't fancy pushing my luck. Â If people are happy with separate threads maybe we just leave it as is until people moan. I suppose Lamby is right that these FS1 shows have really just replaced the FX/FUEL shows. Â Maybe we should have a joint thread for the Aug 28th and Sep 4th shows though. Two events in one week, maybe as a one off we should combine those two events into one thread. Especially because they fall in the same timeframe as 164 and the new TUF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathrey Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 I think that would be a good idea Wand, do a combined thread for the 28/08 and 04/09 events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 In all seriousness, I think that having one big thread for the FOX/FX shows, and separate threads for the actual PPV's is the best idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members herbie747 Posted August 20, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Well I'm starting a separate thread for each event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted August 20, 2013 Author Paid Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Well I'm starting a separate thread for each event. Â is that you Mo Chatra? Didn't Mo used to start three threads for each event? Pre fight, live discussion and post fight? Â Me personally, I'm not really fussed either way. Just wanted to throw the idea out there to see what people thought. Seems everyone is mixed on the idea so maybe we should ask one of the mods?

jimufctna24 Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 In all seriousness, I think that having one big thread for the FOX/FX shows, and separate threads for the actual PPV's is the best idea. Yeah I agree. Â Like I said for something like Shields vs Maia, I do not think it warrants a individual thread. Plus, its more work for Wand who starts all these threads, I think it would be a bit unfair on him to be expected to start a new thread so often.

Paid Members herbie747 Posted August 20, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted August 20, 2013 Seems everyone is mixed on the idea so maybe we should ask one of the mods? Â That's my point - this was already discussed & decided a few years ago; we're allowed 1 thread per event. You're essentially asking for permission to do something you already have permission to do- that's why I said this whole procrastinating scenario is a bit gay!

Moderators PowerButchi Posted August 20, 2013 Moderators Share Posted August 20, 2013 Yeah, go separate for PPVs and have this as a super thread or something as there's a shit load more UFC shows these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
