The key differences in thePIT's cage versus a traditional MMA Octogon include:<br id=""><br id="">- All eight sides of thePIT's cage are slanted outwards so the "Pitbulls" can run up the sides or perch themselves on the edges, allowing for leaps of faith and high flying action.<br id="">- Leaving the cage by one's own free-will causes an immediate disqualification and a loss. Being thrown out of the cage or falling off of the edges can create one of two scenarios: i) the other "Pitbull" may opt to have his opponent brought back into the cage, or alternatively, ii) the other "Pitbull" may choose to follow his opponent out of the cage, causing the stipulation to change to a falls count anywhere match.<br id="">- To prevent "Pitbulls" from fighting with fear, there are three cage officials on the outside to watch for "fakers". For example, should a "Pitbull" pretend to fall off the edge while attempting a high risk manoeuvre to escape the cage for a moment, the three officials will discuss and come to a decision as to whether a disqualification is required.<br id="">- Weapons are not allowed in thePIT upon entering the cage, however, should a "Pitbull" acquire a weapon mid-match, it's fair game.<br id="">- No other "Pitbulls" are allowed at ringside until one of the two competitors have left the cage. At this point, other "Pitbulls" may rush the cage to encourage, however they wish, the other "Pitbull" to re-enter thePIT.</span></strong></span></div></div> </div></div></div></div></div>

Sadistic? Love it. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Looks really underground, looks good.

I like the cut of your jib. The format and rules of your matches/fights are rather innovative - should make for some interesting scenarios.

Now I was surrounded by a bunch of guys in suits and next thing I knew the room went black. I woke up about an hour later with the other guys, according to Alexis, and I was in a dim-lit room with a cage directly at the bottom of this steel ramp. Alexis told us he wanted us to all see thePIT at the same time, as to not gain any unfair advantages. One by one we were motioned down to the cage to take a look and check out our new surroundings. Alexis then revealed to us that we weren't leaving. I didn't get it, but of course, there was an explanation. As we all walked up the ramp he handed us all a blue key, which he later explained was his "matrix". We were his slaves, and in due time, we could maybe even earn ourselves a red key, which would unlock the door to the outside world, where we could finally go home. Room and board were all in the contract, as was food and the like. And interestingly enough, the blue key wasn't just a symbol, it was also the key to my room. Here we go I guess..." </strong></span></div></div> </div></div></div></div></div>

The odd few hugged the cage walls and hoped for the best but most were jumping right into the action and getting involved in the fight. The first elimination came when Cerberus got into a little brawl with Cip Conduit. Cerberus tossed expecting to follow him, however, Cip rushed the cage and grabbed on to Reggie Bishop he whipped back at Cerberus. Cerberus, not prepared for this, acted on impulse. The result of this was Reggie Bishop being flung in the air until he finally came down, being folded over the top railing of the cage, at which point he bowed out of the match. After this elimination, a target immediately showed up on Cip’s back, and after being chased around and beaten down for another five minutes by various “Pitbulls”, he scaled the cage and crawled out, bowing out of the match.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">First Elimination and 20<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Reggie Bishop</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Second Elimination and 19<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Cip Conduit</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Tony Yee and Arthur Dexter Bradley showed some signs of working together for a few brief moments in the match. A common manoeuvre that we saw from them on more than one occasion was when ADB would whip Yee towards the cage, where the latter would run up the cage and perform whatever strike or technique he saw available. Dropkicks, clotheslines, even the occasional hurricanrana, Yee and ADB were working together and it was working. They even managed to eliminate a “Pitbull” with some beautiful team work. Nomad would walk into a trap when ADB baited him over to where two sides of the cage met. A drop toe hold led to Nomad’s face being placed against the cage and moments later, Yee had joined the scuffle, placing his foot on the back of Nomad’s head to force him into the cage even more. ADB put the nail in the coffin after applying a Boston Crab which led to Nomad tapping out to the pain and bowing out of the match. In another corner of the cage, a smaller scuffle saw Simon Ice escape the cage by his own free will after being beaten down by Trauma for a long period of time.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Third Elimination and 18<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Nomad</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Fourth Elimination and 17<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Simon Ice</em></strong></span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Trauma would celebrate after he forced Ice out of the cage, but it was short lived as he would then be attacked by Josh Jones. Josh’s technical prowess allowed him to quite literally mop the floor with Trauma, as he tossed him down and kept him down with submissions and rest holds to effectively immobilize Trauma. Trauma eventually ran out of energy and would become a ragdoll, and realizing his precarious predicament, bowed out of the match.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Fifth Elimination and 16<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Trauma</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Waldo Odlaw and Quentin Queen were very quiet for the amount of time they had spent in the cage, and finally saw that the talent pool was getting smaller. Odlaw made the first move, wildly swinging at Quentin Queen and putting him out-cold on the canvas. Since Queen didn’t quit, he was still technically in the match, but Odlaw didn’t concern himself with him as he was no longer a threat. Odlaw went and calmed himself down and quietly roamed along the cage walls looking for another victim, but he would be jumped by Storm Spillane and Marvel Malloy who would force him out of the match due to the sheer amount of strikes they unleashed on him. They also finished what Odlaw started, beating on Queen until he came to, where he would surrender.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Sixth Elimination and 15<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Waldo Odlaw</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Seventh Elimination and 14<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Quentin Queen</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Outlaw Wes Revell tried to get involved in the fight little by little, but was soon bowled over by Ted Brady.

A little more time passed and although Revell tried to tough it out, it was too much, and he would surrender as well.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Eighth Elimination and 13<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Outlaw Wes Revell</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Cerberus and Brady would realize how strong of a pairing they were, and in the short time that followed (about 5 minutes), six men would be eliminated. Cerberus and Brady would chase down those who had proven themselves to be threats. The two men singled out Marvel Malloy who had gotten separated from his partner Storm Spillane. Marvel was caught between rabid “Pitbulls” and knew what was going to happen next. Instead of taking unnecessary punishment, he warned Storm and fled the cage. Storm was quick to follow after watching the two men turn their attention towards him.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Ninth Elimination and 12<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Marvel Malloy</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Tenth Elimination and 11<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Storm Spillane</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Cerberus and Brady continued their rampage, picking on much weaker men just to get their way, and Tex Tagan was their next victim. Cerberus got a hold on the cowboy and literally squeezed the life out of him while Brady swung for the fences. A now bloody Tagan would either pass out or tap out due to the strikes, and he chose the latter, escaping with little left of his nose and hopefully all of his teeth.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Eleventh Elimination and 10<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; </em></strong><strong id=""><em id="">Tex</em></strong><strong id=""><em id=""> Tagan</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Brady and Cerberus continued to beat down the competition that remained. Nigel Svensson and Lion Heart remained very quiet throughout the match in terms of elimination, but contributed very much so to the blood that was shed. Svensson would get caught in between Cerberus and Brady, and as they ran towards him, Lion Heart charged in and spear-tackled Svensson out of the way to save him. Brady and Cerberus landed on their backs after colliding head-to-head. Brady looked unconscious, but Cerberus was slowly getting up. Extreme Deluxe took one for the team and tried to keep him down, but he would get thrown out of the ring in due time and the fall to the floor below was too much. Extreme Deluxe surrendered and continued up the ramp.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Twelfth Elimination and 9<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Extreme Deluxe</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Svensson was still laying on the ground after being “saved” by Lion Heart earlier. Lion Heart, however, hopped up to his feet and continued to beat down on Brady, but as Cerberus was getting his wits about him, everyone left in the ring (minus Brady and Svensson) grouped together and gave him a beating he would remember. Cerberus toughed it out at first, but soon gave in to the punishment and as he laid there and took it, a loud “I quit!” was heard and he was helped out of the cage.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Thirteenth Elimination and 8<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Cerberus</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Curtis Jenkins, Lion Heart, Josh Jones, ADB & Tony Yee all contributed to the elimination of the biggest man in the match, but now had to turn their focuses to either each other, or Ted Brady. Brady and Svensson were still injured or incapacitated so the five men decided to turn on each other. Tony Yee took a shot at Josh Jones but was caught from behind by Curtis Jenkins in an extremely tight Rear Naked Choke. Tony Yee was about to go unconscious and ADB was caught up in a scuffle with Lion Heart and could do nothing to help. Yee eventually tapped out to the pain and the “High Flyin’ Hawaiian” was now out of the match and had left his partner-in-crime to go solo. At this point, Svensson also bowed out of the match, citing a rib injury as the cause.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Fourteenth Elimination and 7<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Tony Yee</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Fifteenth Elimination and 6<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Nigel Svensson</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Curtis Jenkins, Arthur Dexter Bradley, Lion Heart, Josh Jones and Ted Brady were the final five. One of these men would be crowned the very first Pit Lord, and get a month off to rest. Josh Jones and Ted Brady were arguably the most beat down of the five, as ADB, Jenkins and Lion Heart had taken little punishment throughout the match. A surprise elimination came when Jenkins got caught by a wayward flying knee that from ADB, which Lion Heart had just dodged. Jenkins was now on wobbly legs, and ADB followed up, swarming him until he surrendered and bowed out of the match.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Sixteenth Elimination and 5<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Curtis Jenkins</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Arthur Dexter Bradley was in good spirits now, looking very confident, but Lion Heart was also gaining confidence. Josh Jones got into the mix once more, scrapping with ADB. Lion Heart joined the brawl leaving Brady as the odd man out. Brady was finally getting his wits about him once more and was looking like he was getting ready to pounce. Josh Jones was sent flying into the cage wall and laid there for a moment. Brady and Jones locked eyes and Brady looked like he was about to charge. As he ran towards Jones, Jones didn’t have the energy to move out of the way in time, and just before he was crushed, he surrendered. Brady would however leave his back turned to Lion Heart, who would throw him to the ground with a brutal Powerbomb. Once Brady was on the ground, Lion Heart continued with a heel hook which would force Brady to tap out.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Seventeenth Elimination and 4<sup id="">th</sup> Seed; Josh Jones</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Eighteenth Elimination and 3<sup id="">rd</sup> Seed; Ted Brady</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id=""> </em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id="">Arthur Dexter Bradley tried to pounce on Lion Heart and finish him off but he would have none of it. Bradley soon wound up on the top of the cage waiting to leap, and as he was preparing to, Lion Heart caught him off guard and knocked him off of his perch, leaving him on the outside. Bradley laid there, out of it, and Lion Heart prepared to finish things. He ran up the cage wall and flew with a giant cross-body, but just as he was about to connect, ADB moved out of the way and sent him face first to the ground, after a solid 12-foot drop. ADB picked him up and sent him face first into the cage, and as he attempted to finish the match with a rear naked choke, Lion Heart came to and forced himself out of it, escaping underneath ADB’s legs and sweeping him down, applying a Sharpshooter. ADB tried to withstand the pain but with no possible escape, he tapped out.</span></p><p id=""> </p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Final Elimination and 2<sup id="">nd</sup> Seed; Arthur Dexter Bradley</em></strong></span></p><p id=""><span style="font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #ffffff; font-size: 16px;" id=""><strong id=""><em id="">Winner of the </em></strong><strong id=""><em id="">Battle</em></strong><strong id=""><em id=""> Royale and the New Pit Lord; Lion Heart</em></strong></span></p><p id=""> </p></div></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid transparent;"><div style="padding:5px;text-align:center;font-size:1.8em;"><img src="<a href="http://i39.tinypic.com/9u3bsp.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i39.tinypic.com/9u3bsp.jpg"</a> style=""></div></div></div></div></div></div>

Month 1: Battle Royal(rest for #1)

Month 2: Match, loss to #2

Month 3: Match, loss to #3

Month 4: Match, loss to #4

Month 5: Match, loss to #5

...

Month 10: Match, loss to #10.

 

So it looks like the season-inaugural Pitlord only has to win two matches to make it to the season finale. That's...nice. And it means he has an incentive to try to coerce #3 to fight #2, so that he gets a bye month.

 

~~~

 

And Round Robin, 8 people? So seven matches for each person...

 

I'ma laugh if you get an eight-way tie with 4-3 records. Since you're randomly booking, clearly

Edit: Math was off; that won't work. With an odd number, everyone can have a 50-50 record. Best ****-up we can have is...

Yeah, I'm getting four wins being what you need to guarantee success. Which means I'm an idiot as duh, best of four edit seven, you idiot moron. Four people with 4-3 and four with 3-4 is the best I can get.

 

This does mean that, as has been alleged in certain types of sports, you can have a 4-2 going against a 3-3, where the 3-3 bribes 4-2 to take the fall. Granted, that would...

 

...

 

I think my math's off again. Don't think 4-3 guarantees success...

Edit: No, I'm right. And I'm saying that by fiat, not by running Excel again and mathing it.

D:

 

But people are going to die in your story!

 

On another note, though, aren't the bottom four guys screwed? They can't reach the top eight even if they won every match every month. I guess it could help next season, though. Or if this Alexis guy has a heart, maybe.

 

Which he clearly doesn't.
