SBI Fight 4: Klitschko vs. Lewis

Posted on by

“Some say Lewis retired to avoid this fight.” – Scott Bullerwell

If the results of this table top simulation is any indication, Scott was right.

Klitschko knocks out Lewis at 1:38 in the first round.

I meant to start this fight this morning, before going to work, and continue when I got home.  I didn’t think it would be over before finishing the round.

Next up: David Tua vs. Mike Tyson.

Stay tuned!

SBI Fight 3: Dempsey vs. Fury

Posted on by

Fight 3 of the Scott Bullerwell Invitational:

Dempsey knocks out Fury 23 seconds into round 9.

This was a battle.  Fury kept coming back despite the punishment Dempsey was giving him, but Fury’s fatigue got to him as Dempsey finished him off.

The judges gave round 5 to Dempsey despite the fact that Fury had landed more punches.

Next up: Wladimir Kiltschko vs. Lennox Lewis

Stay tuned!

More hours in the day, or an extra day in the weekend.

I’ll get to all of them, along with the baseball and football and racing and hockey games.

Dice vs. Cards

Posted on by

I think I found a possible reason why I can’t seem to wrap my head around Inside the Paint and Inside the Crease basketball and hockey games.  And it’s dumb.

Both of those games use a fast action card (FAC) system as opposed to dice.  I like rolling dice more than flipping cards.

This may be why I’ve found Glory Days Boxing more fun to play, for me, than Title Bout II, which also uses a FAC system.

And I was able to grasp the basics of SSG basketball because of it’s dice roll mechanic similar to Payoff Pitch Baseball.  I’ve tried using the FACs for Payoff Pitch, but always find myself reverting back to using dice.

I was never a big Statis Pro Baseball gamer because of the cards.

I did pull out Statis Pro Basketball this morning, and may try to play a game to see if this reasoning holds water or not.

Stay tuned!
