We will be cruel

They will know who we are

Sure enough. I guess my Twitter digest is just behind

when I used to write my pride biographies there were a few people who wanted me to turn them into blogs and I always assumed the moment I did they would stop reading them, as happens with MMA media

I, too, appreciate the card previews.

I enjoy the previews also even though I am a very, very casual fan. :)

I am excited for trashweight because with the time difference it's one of the few fights I might be able to watch

Vettori's weight cutting nutrition is the most Italian thing.

Sometimes you just have to take nutrition into your own gesturing hands

To be honest I'd be up for making them more public for others to read, which even in a vaccuum would be more work because then I'd have to edit them and I don't mind doing that. But there are a few factors stopping me

1) I don't want to go to the work of setting anything up or marketing it.

2) I don't want to deal with the open web people. They can read what I write, fine, but I don't want to hear their opinions or talk to them.

3) Without a patreon I'd be making the exact amount of money I'm making from it now.

If some platform said "Hey CS we'll give you $x if you polish up the prose on your breakdowns and post them regularly on our platform on Wednesdays" I'd say yes and continue to do them pseudonymously.

I shot a pitch to fluffdaddy to at least have any PSP person do a primer for the big fightcards as an article but idk if he has read it yet

Well if that comes to pass, I'd be happy to write a breakdown for the thread for tuesday or wednesday, take feedback, and then send it along to Fluffdaddy. If money ends up getting involved I don't mind buying avs for people who help a lot or smilies for psp

It's no longer a blue world, Max. Where could we go?



I suggested doing mma content when I sent in some samples as well. It wasn't my only suggestion for content and I haven't heard anything back one way or another, but the Bluedeanie GDT Formula may return in some form or another if the powers that be dig the idea.
