Swimming is a sport, and I can find videos to prove it is a sport. Not to mention it's in the Olympics, which proves it's real.

All anyone has been able to do is give out a bunch of names, which could easily be made up, and give unsubstantial evidence in links. Then, when someone else has googled it, not a whole lot has turned up showing proof.

I'm very disgusted in the level this site (or hopefully just this thread) has sunk to. First an idiot makes a stupid thread. Than random idiots support him. Than a whole other set of people choose to argue this is not a sport, which it obviously fucking isn't, and do not possess the power to just let it be. People with "alllah akbar" as there quotes and Mfghanistan as their country prace around. And now this seemingly perfect thread has evolved into the stupidest argument I have ever read online. Thanks TL.Net!

Omg, ack, I, the very starter of this thread, have way more than 500 posts -_-
Guys wtf is wrong with this thread? It diverged from some awesome discussion/debate to mindless flaming and people even denying the existance of Underwater Basket Weaving? WTF?!

Anyways, that maneuver WYS jr. did yesterday was slick, anyone else catch that? LMAO how he turned the sides of the basket so it seemed like the bottom, and got rediculed by Kashyap, then he made 4 "bottoms" like that, and kashyap was like WTF? and then KABOOM WYS jr.s basket was complete before kashyap could go up to take another breath! Lol kashyap got told!!

For you guys who are interested in the official rules of UWBW, its this:
- You are underwater and weiving a basket out of wool and straw.
- The objective is for the basket to be able to hold a certain amount of weight (usually ~50 kg).
- If a basket fails to hold the specified amount of weight, it is automatically disqualified and placed in a lower tier.
- All baskets that hold the weight are then judged by "points," with the lowest amount of "points" declared the winner.
- For every 0.1 gram the basket weighs, a "point" is added. For every second the weaver spends weaving, another "point is added." Finally, every time a weaver comes up to the surface for breath, another 25 "points" are added.

Just an interesting fact, the world record for the standard 50 Kg calm weather competition is a mere 2355 points! (Achieved by the legendary Chizz Guidennis of Swaziland in 1928)

Now guys, let's stay on topic please.

sending a picture of yourself holding a sign with your desired nickname should become part of the tl.net registration process.

oh, and since this is a sc related website, maybe also a picture of yourself playing bw should be included...

hell, every single post you make should consist just of a digicam shot of yourself holding up a sign with the stuff you want to say on it

again. i am faced with the futile task of silencing you newbs witth your petty comments questioning the validity of UWBW. Like Pac stated int he first post, this is NOT A HIGHLY PUBLICIZED SPORT. Since it is played in poorer countries like madagascar, THERE IS NATURALLY FEW INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET regarding the UWBW leagues because those countries lack internet connections. Stop bitching about not being able to find any websites on the league. Google is not the answer to everything. I am only trying to find some fellow enthusiasts for some hearty discussion, but instead i am met with your extreme gayness. Why must you go out of your way to try to prove us wrong. If you do not believe us then please go tak a hike instead of flaming the sport
. Thanx

someone should host a uwbw tourney soon, i was introduced to it like 3 months ago by my friend Bobby. Now hes teaching me how to play it in 24 hour fitness. It's pretty cool they let us bring our stuff there. But im getting really good fast, all the tlneters someone host a uwbw party and wel see whose the best/teach other people like me. Im enjoying the game so far.

AHAHahahah, even Violence has to admit that it just sounds funny-the name and the descriptions of moves. So they broadcast this stuff on TV? Anyone got a video of someone in action? I really really want to see some UWBW.
