    I have some matches I'm coming back to but I'm really just trying to sprint through the shit I KNOW I'll love. I love Osprey and Okada individually but I dunno, that night just didn't seem urgent. Will watch it.

    I was happy just reading your write up of 7. But if it's a 5.75 I feel I HAVE to watch it. Is it THAT good?

    Ishii v Mox... there was a lot of stuff I liked. But was it Match Of The Tournament? No. Not even the best match I've watched this past two hours. Actually, the more I think about it, two spots aside and pacing (which was on point) aside, I actually don't think this was a "good" match. Weird.

    I mean, I know I'm an LIJ fanboy, but I think you downplayed EVIL v SANADA a bit.

    My dudes, July/Aug is such a busy month for me entertainment wise. SGDQ, WSOP, ASG week and X Games, on top of other things, has distracted me for too long. But I finished my X Games watch last night and will bust through the G1 shows I've missed. When's the final? Is it this weekend?
  8. Yeah that's the set in stone rule for sure, I was asking for a one-off exception. Is all good though. Can't believe that third stipulation was an exploding bomb barbed wire piranha fish tank death match
  9. If it's not too late, I'd like to change B2 to Submissions as the third stip. Dunno what I was thinking last night. Oh yeah, alcohol. Alcohol was doing the picking. It's cool if it's not accepted. I've not been watching so I dunno if Regal has said anything yet. I think there's been two matches at this point?

    No love for Naito v Yano? Ishii v Naito was... not my favourite of their 9 (is it 10 now?) matches, but not the worst either. The bar has just been set so high. The entrance with them both showcasing their different Champion qualities, Ishii no nonsense defending his pride, Naito stating the NEVER is so far beneath him that once he holds both the Intercontinental and Heavy he wouldn't even bother taking the NEVER. Eurgh, such an arrogant twat lol Started fine, lulled in the middle, ending was legit from the second Destino attempt onwards. 8/10 would rewatch, but wouldn't recommend as a Must See For New Fans.

    Only seen Day1 so far I need to power through the rest asap. Archer v Osperay was amazing.
  14. Yeah it was super last minute no way we could have added it. Also, JJ, I told you I had a bad feeling about this one lol

    205 live doesn't help anybody whatsoever. It's interesting that given their respective roles it appears Raw might finally become the wrestling brand (although slightly sad that Smackdown would become the TV show brand). But Bischoff usually makes good TV (I liked TNA during the Hogan era, shoot me. It was good TV just meh level wrestling). Listening to their Inside The Ropes chats, they do still have a great mind for the business and its evolutions, unlike say, a Russo or a Cornette. Fuck, Heyman had me believing Brock Lesnar intentionally concussed Taker as retribution for beating CM Punk and turned me into a complete mark about a 5/6 year old angle the other night. I'll buy whatever he's selling.

    I'd personally be up for mixing up the scoring system. The proposal of 8 points for a win if there are 8 players might be good in case people sleep on an event?

    Twitter spat between Rollins and Osperay has been fun today.

    Hello folks

    Not been posting much, I apologise. Been really busy trying to sort irl shit out and just plain forget to login some times. Going to a huge music festival in two weeks, that'll be nice. After that I'm going to work on a major career change, hopefully, so will be spending a lot less money and will probably be spending more time on an actual desktop PC for the first time in like a decade so maybe I'll post more. Hope all is well

    Hello folks

    Something involving video production, ideally editing. I've always been interested and dabbled before but never went into it in too much detail. You know I've been desperate for a career change for years but nothing really appealed enough to kick me into action. Just came to me a few months ago, I've done a bit of reading in what is available in terms of work and study, my plan right now is: - Get badass PC (done). - Start making short films and edits in my spare time (begins today!) - Enrol in a night class (enrolled for August already). - If I take to it and I'm this motivated by the end of the year, I'll apply for the full-time 2 year TV production course which covers everything - direction, editing, production, sound production, etc. Giving me the best base to find a career at the end of it. Scary stuff, I might get to the end of the year and decide it's nothing more than a hobby but that's my aim right now. I'm deeply, deeply unhappy with my career.

    Post Your PC Specs

    So, I finally have a new PC. Original budget was £700 and I saw a few video editing builds I wanted to emulate, the top-end being about £2,000 so that was my aim - get as close to a £2,000 PC for as close to a £700 budget as possible, meet somewhere in the middle. My absolute upper limit was £1,400. CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X with Wraith Prism RGB LED Cooler £270 GFX: PNY GeForce GTX 1660 Ti 6Gb XLR8 Gaming Overclocked Edition £250 (NOTE: This is above the recommendations for the £2,000 build) Motherboard: MSI X470 Gaming Plus ATX £107 RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32Gb (2x 16Gb) DDR4 2666MHz C16 XMP 2.0 £131 Storage 1: Samsung MZ-V7S1T0BW 970 EVO Plus 1Tb Solid State Drive £212 (NOTE: This was from the $5,000+ build total overkill) Storage 2: WD 4Tb Desktop HD £89 Case: Phanteks DBK £63 Power Supply: Seasonic SSR-850fx Focus Plus Gold 850 (80+ Gold, ATX 12v) £95 Monitor 1: AOC 21.5" £65 Monitor 2: AOC 21.5" £65 (NOTE: Really limited by space I could have went for like a 24" and an 18" but I'd rather have two decent sized monitors for what I want to do) Speakers: Logitech Z213 £27 Mouse: Easterntime Tech X-08 wireless £14 Keyboard: Logitech K120 for Business £8 (NOTE: I want to upgrade this badly but holy shit the costs were rising) Extra Fans: There's like 3 extra RGB Corsair fans in there but I forget the exact model, call it £20 Extra Wires: Needed to replace my ethernet cables so invested in longer, plus needed adaptors for the monitors, spent like an extra £7 Desk: Hemnes Bureau £230 (NOTE: My budget for this was £70 but this beauty is perfect, exact to the millimetre dimensions to fit the space I have and the build I wanted so it needed bought) Total Cost: £1,650 Evaluation: I went super over budget here, but all things considered, the difference in quality between most things in the £1,400-£3,000 range is negligible compared to what I got, the GFX card is the main thing for what I need and I went above recommendations on that and above recommendations but minorly above budget on other bits and pieces. I straight forgot about the desk, monitors, etc in my original budget so really it should have been closer to £900 to begin with. I feel I've got fantastic value for money for an initial overpayment on what I desired to spend. Pictures:
