  1. The external HDD option can be quite iffy. I have a 1Tb which I have reformatted to FAT32 and it's USB 3, yet I still can't get it to work on my PS4. I've given up and just delete games I'm not playing at the moment.
  2. Have started playing God of War after finishing Assassins creed. Took a session or 2 to get into it but now I'm hooked. Whenever a new God of War comes out I always forget how fun the previous one was and turn my nose up to it a bit, until I actually start playing. Also done with the co-op Borderlands 3, need a new co-op game to play, considering Far Cry 5. Any idea's for good PS4 co-op games to try?
  3. Same for me. Wondering if delivery might be the only option now.
  4. Downloaded it but haven't yet played, will give it a go soon. Just finished up the main story line (co op with a mate) for Borderlands 3 and cleaning up some of the side missions, but some really are quite boring. I think side missions are good for a bit of a gap between tough main missions, but to do side missions over and over on their own....
  5. Haven't been playing all that many games in recent years, but with lockdown and the extra time, I've gotten going again. Just finished up with Assassins Creed Black Flag, will still mess around a bit with some of the remaining side missions. With that I've been alternating with playing Borderlands 3 co-op with a mate. What a great game, Highly recommend it. Next on the single player list is The Last of Us Remastered. Looking forward to the sequel, which I've just read has been delayed indefinitely due to covid-19
  6. Claimed to be 18kg, many of us moan about 18 grams extra on our bikes. Says he only tried it on for the first time the day before. With so much on the line, so much money in the fight, surely they would have been smarter about it all. But yes agreed, with the Heavy weight division gaining some popularity finally, it is time for the fights that the fans want. But, the cluster F... that is sport of boxing probably won't allow that.
  7. Looking like Wilder is going to activate his rematch clause. In which case we won’t see Fury Joshua this year. Wilder is also claiming he wasn’t hurt in the fight, and has blamed the weight of his walk out costume, saying it wore him down and he didn’t have the legs for the fight. These guys...they should really think about what the fans will think when they hear these kinds of excuses. But I guess it’s his first attempt at trying to convince everyone that they want to see a 3rd fight
  8. Yeah Wilder had a tough time, and can claim that he would have done better had he not busted his ear so early. He has 30 days to call for a rematch, even though everyone wants to see Fury fight Anthony Joshua now to unify the belts. Will be interesting to see what plays out if he requests the rematch. Dillian Whyte is the mandatory next challenger for the WBC belt, but none of them care about any of this anyway, money talks. Felder/Hooker, I didn't know how to score it. After 1 and 1/2 rounds I had decided that the fight was Hooker's, but Felder came back strong, and by the end I had no idea. I really think it was the ultimately ineffective take down at the end which swayed the scoring. Can't take anything away from Felder though, he left it all out there and has always been an exciting fighter, just never quite good enough to make it to the top.
  9. Are you talking about a 5 round fight? Then in that instance the losing fighter knows they have to go for a finish. Imagine Jon Jones going into the 4th against Reyes knowing he was 3 down? We may have seen an old school Vitor Belfort come out. Yeah so I guess it could take the suspense out of the final decision and Buffer can save his enthusiastic "Aaaaand Stilllll/Newwww" for the fights where the final round is the decider. In the above scenario, if a fighter is 2 rounds up (and knows it even without the judges having to tell him), they usually coast in the final round anyway to play it safe, so I don't see that changing too much. But yes it could backfire and make some fights more boring towards the end. I see Kansas City are going to experiment with this. https://www.espn.com/mma/story/_/id/28673921/kansas-experiment-option-real-scoring-mma-fights
  10. One of the best suggestions that's been doing the "rounds", is to have open scoring, i.e. let the fighters know what the score is after each round. Imagine fighters knowing for sure they are 2-2 going into the final round? Reyes may not have had much left in the tank in the 5th, but he sure as hell would have emptied the tank had he known that it was the deciding round.
  11. Not sure how that one ref scored it 49-46. I had Reyes 3-1 going into the final round, but I guess to beat the champ, let alone the GOAT, you need a finish. #dontleaveittothejudges
  12. Has anyone received any seeding details for this race?
  13. True, I guess there's too many variables at play in order to get a tool to make the adjustments automatically. I'll just manually cater for 10% as that seems to be the sweet spot for me personally. I don't particularly feel like doing an FTP test on a Tuesday morning before work in Jhb
  14. Okay cool. Yeah I have found it fairly simple to update intervals.icu this way. Yeah I guess that is the tricky party. I'm only in Jhb for 2-3 days at a time. I need to read up to see if regular short trips will contribute at all to acclimatization, or if you only acclimatize if you remain there for week or so or longer. For the moment I just keep the wattbike app as my "Jhb FTP", and manually change intervals.icu (though I will check out the indoor FTP option). But when winter rolls in, I'll be doing some indoor stuff in CT as well, so will need to go back to manually changing this (I've forgotten to lower the FTP for a trip before and I was wrecked after 2/3rds of the workout).
  15. Hi David. This is perhaps not so much a question about the intervals.icu tool itself, but a more general question about FTP and travel (and maybe to spark some thoughts on possible solutions in the tool). I reside in CT and travel to JHB quite often. I've found that I need to adjust my FTP by 10% or so (lower for JHB), in order to find planned workouts manageable. What I've been doing is updating my FTP on the wattbike hub app before each workout depending on where I am. Likewise, in intervals.icu, I manually update the FTP after each workout to ensure the load is calculated correctly. Any thoughts on this? Anyone else do anything similar?
  16. This will only count for 2021 CTCT seeding. Seems the Paarl tour is the last chance for this years seeding .
  17. All I read was tailwind up Hels, did anyone give it a go? #PRDay
  18. But yes agreed with the potential match ups. Khabib however won't be interested for a while and will decline any offers. Conors best hope for light weight title is for Tony Ferguson to beat Khabib. Ferguson will give Conor a shot. Colby's still gonna be out for a while, think Conor wants to fight before then. Masvidal would probably be the biggest money draw at this stage, given his 2019. But like always, fighters will be lining up, begging Conor for a fight and that big payday. Masvidal would make sense as he doesn't have an opponent lined up.
  19. Cowboy still got fights left in him. He's just not a top top fighter, just can't take that step up to the championship level, but can still fight any top 3-15 fighter and win, in entertaining fashion. Call him a gate keeper or whatever, but the man can still fight and more importantly (for Dana at least), can bring in plenty $$$ for the UFC.
  20. Conor should also be able to do a quick turnaround to the next fight as he didn’t take a single shot
  21. At about 9am, wind seems to have been consistent all day
  22. Went out for a 90 minute spin today, and those gusts could cause havoc in some of the groups
  23. How did the current conditions compare to the year they cancelled the CTCT?
  24. They've both been talking up a big game promising to keep the fight standing, so I doubt we will see too many offensive take downs, probably only if one of them is on the backfoot. Cowboy tends to go for submissions often right after he has knocked his opponent down, as opposed to ground and pound like most other fighters. Either knocks the opponent out straight or rocks them and submits. Cowboy also doesn't always do too well when fighters press him too much, like Diaz for instance. Conor does like to sit back and counter with the strong left, but has been shown to press a bit more in recent fights. I've got Conor for this fight, but not by much.
  25. Great, configured the HR zones and noticed the new data page open up. All sorted thanks.
