To me Paramount is a huge mess

the quality of the matches seems worse than 324 but this time around at least the pacing is better. People were complaining that 324 had way to much filler/ads/ slow fight time to broadcast time ratio. 325 is going by much faster than 324 did. It's going about the speed as pre paramount PPVs normally went, without being a PPV ( in places that matter)

haven't had any issues with the stream itself. Seems some people are talking about lag & or bad picture quality. It's totally fine for me. Maybe yall should give the mouse on a wheel that powers your potato internet some cheese, or consider upgrading to a gerbil... more stamina

Having Paramount meant this was one of the first events I’ve watched in a long time.
 
Paramount is working great for me. I walked in the event late. Was able to rewind to where I wanted to start. Didn't miss anything. Plus, Paramount has dope ass transformer movies. Im content
 
As bands get older I get less enthused about new music, always seems to disappoint. Tool's latest album was great musically but Maynard's vocals are nowhere near Undertow/Aenema/Lateralus levels and it sucks.

Similar to fighters, there is a climb-up, a prime run, & an underwhelming/disappointing final stage.

You listen to Deftones? They’ve been around just as long as Tool and their vocalist sounds as good as ever.
 
The price is awesome. Skipping ads is great. Quality of stream is great

But if you are like me you work saturday night. ESPN had each fight of course but they also had files called "early prelims", "prelims", "main card." Amd sometimes Id even find a file that plays the whole thing

Paramount just seems disorganized as hell. They have "all killer no filler" which seems to play the whole card but ONLY HIGHLIGHTS, highlighs of specific fights. If you look hard enough you can also find every fight of the card listed from last to first with the duration listed. I dont think the image ruins the fight

So watching the whole card you have to scroll to the end with closed eyes and play everything backward

Idk if its just me. Or everyone of you watchs it live. I just find it annoying

It allows me to play the prelims and main cards separately.

I can chose to watch from beginning or live.

And they seem to have individual fights of old cards.
 
This event ran so much better than last week other than the fucked up glitches in the prelims. The pace and ads were at a place that I would keep paying for a subscription. They should have done this last week to not turn people off.

Yeah I loved Ko Noi Yokan but the last couple albums have felt a lot like filler to me. Although to your point Chino still has it. Still bump Around the Fur, White Pony, & Adrenaline regularly during workouts

Their newest record "Private Music" is one of their best
 
It's honestly impressive how the Russian streams have somehow gotten worse since Paramount took over
 
I hear that I'm about to put a $364 car insurance payment on a credit card in a sec
I actually don't work at all anymore lul. Disabled. sucks, i loved my job too, was there for over 10 years and making good enough money and enjoying what i did. but sometimes ur born with shit genes and ur body fails. :p so now i lay in bed, poop myself, and internet. 364 for 6 months? I remember my insurance was around like like 800 every 6 months when i was young, but it went down over time to like 400-500 ish every 6 months once i got into my 30's.
 
they are still experiencing technical difficulties for sure. last week they cut cruz off in the middle of his speech and said 'the octagon has closed', and then this week they kept throwing up links to switch over to main and then it would just take you back to where you were already were. and then, exited out to choose the new link for main and it sat there and hung forever, the only link that worked was the old one for prelims. paramount tech support dudes, take note.
