    Eddie tweeted today that Metamoris 3 will be back to the original format i.e. no finish = draw. There will be no judges in the next event. Hopefully this become a permanent change.

    Cool, I could go either way with the judges.
    Going back to the pay for subs debate, maybe they should offer a submission bonus like the UFC but standard for all submissions finishes.
    Maybe even extra incentive to be impressive by adding a submission of the night bonus for the most exciting submission finish.

    Good point; I hadn't considered that. Glad to hear they're scrapping the judges. It sounds like that really made a difference in the overall aggressiveness of the competitors.

    I like the idea of some kind of incentive for going for the submission. I will never understand fighting for points or advantages. Points and silly rules are partly why I don't care for almost all sports. Jiu jitsu is different because there is no bullshit when it is stripped to its barest essentials. I won, you lost. We both know it because one of us is asleep. I don't care how big an Aoki fan you are you can't argue with Kron's guillotine. (sidebar: Ice Cream? Really? I mean it's better than G in a Gi but... Second sidebar: anybody ever notice G in a Gi is also 'gina Gi? No offense to the ladies...)
