Haha, I had a box of my Dad's old business cards and I'd create current fighters to set up tournaments. I was a tad obsessive myself, because I'd constantly be starting over because of new fighters popping up as I ran them. Those old set ups were as fun as doing the fights. I'd take 3 or 4 magazines and average out their ratings with the alphabet ones. Good times.
