You mean time-outs or what?

I don’t know what the hell you guys are doing, but I’ve experienced almost no trouble in the least with loading pages in the last month or so. And yes I’ve been keeping track because yes it used to be pretty bad, but it’s not anymore.

Though I guess it could be bad again and I wouldn’t know.

It looks like they wiped all the recorded fights.

My brute has been losing consistently. I think I’ve won maybe 2 of my last dozen fights. Lose if my opponent has a shield, for some reason.

Hmm…I had heard all this hullabaloo about this dude that goes by the name of [Chuck Norris](http://yeticus-rex.mybrute.com/fight/272664412)…I still don’t see why this guy is so awesome.

Oh, and on another note, has anyone else discovered that the fights are predetermined as soon as you click on “Fight”?

1. Before you fight someone, open up a second window to the MyBrute homepage.
2. Type in the name of the guy you are about to fight, and you’ll see the opponents page with stats, and previous fights (in the red and/or green bars).
3. Go back to your own Brutes window and press “Fight”.
4. Now go back to your opponents window and press the “Reload current page” button and find out if you’re Brute already won or lost the fight that’s still going on in the other window!

Down for maintenance, as usual, but I didn’t see anything happen - I just died.

My brute has been getting the snot kicked out of him lately. I just lost a fight to another brute of the same level. Afterwards, I checked her cell. She’s equal on attributes, has more and better weapons, more abilities, and almost 40 more health points.

When I made it to level 8, my speed rating went from a 3 to a 4. I’m one point away from level 9. I want something good.
