    I was wondering if anybody is up for doing a weekly or monthly format (depending on how many volunteers) where we watch a classic fight and rate it from 1-5 on: Entertainment, Significants, Skilled, heart and how close the fight was. By the end we should have a top 50 or so ranked in order of how high they scored in the 5 categories. Anyway I’m not sure if it’s a great idea or not but if anyones up for it or has any suggestions do let me know and we can try and make it a thing.

    I'd be interested but I'm admittedly on here sporadically, generally when I'm at work

    That’s fine. We would prob give everyone one week to watch the fight and give their ratings. If you miss a few that’s no problem.

    It looks like we have around 10 people who would be up for it so I’ll pick the first fight and announce it on Monday.

    I’d like to participate from time to time, but my contributions to the what fight did you watch today/scoring stickied thread is sporadic at best due to work and other things.

    And sometimes if I have time to watch a fight, I may seek out a particular one or a short one due to time limitations.

    But I definitely say go for it. Even if I’m not participating, I’ll read. I do think it would be a good idea to have a thread title with the fight and deadline to finish for each one and a separate thread to have the final tallies for each fight all in one place.

    Noted. I’ll think up some ideas and get back to you when I’ve fully decided. This idea is still in its early stages.
