DREAM: What would you add or change?

I personally like DREAM. They seem to be the closest organization that resembles PRIDE. To know me, I thought PRIDE was the above all organization in the world to it's very end. I still do.

If you were a PRIDE lover as I am, what would you add or change to DREAM if you could?

Me, I liked how PRIDE had it's symbol in the middle of the Ring, which was rightly named the PRIDE ring. I think that DREAM should really put their symbol in the middle of it's ring so they can build it's own reputation as the DREAM ring, as an entity of it's own.

They have the light shows, where's the holograms? Where's the $200,000 hand with the #1 finger that PRIDE used to have?

DREAM should really start and English (Engrish) section to their website.

** UPDATE **
Im going to leave this post up all day for suggestions.
I am writing DREAM with my or our suggestions because I see a huge potential in them.

Here's my letter thus far to DREAM:

Dear DREAM,

My name is Panama, I am writing from the United States. I love what DREAM is doing and I see DREAM as the new PRIDE.

I have some suggestions as a fan if you don't mind. I will list.

1. Change rounds to 3 rounds, 5 rounds for championships

2. Like PRIDE, I really suggest to emblaze the DREAM symbol in the middle of the RING, like PRIDE did. Establish the DREAM ring as an entity of it's own. PRIDE established it's ring as the "PRIDE RING". Establish the "DREAM RING".

3. Please consider soccer kicks and foot stomps to the rules.

4. Please set up Gomi vs. the new LW GP and LW champion or Gomi vs. Diaz 2.

5. Please create an English section to the DREAM website. I think this would especially beneficial as because of the partnership with EliteXC. DREAM wants to stomp it's foot in the U.S. and Americans like me are already taking notice of DREAM. I am a PRIDE fan, and I hope an organization comes in the same spirit of PRIDE.

I'd change the bullshit such as Aoki being given a free ticket in the tournament. His nuthuggers can swing all they want, Aoki was KO'd in the first round.

Add elbows, soccer kicks, knees to a downed opponent, and stomps

Sign Sylvia and Arlovski.

I second that, Aoki got hit with a legal elbow to his back. Now Aoki gets to fight his 2nd round in DREAM 4. I hope if Eddie Alvarez meets him in the finals that he beats the crap out of Aoki.

Yes, must add the elbows, soccer kicks, knees, stomps. In my opinion, if an organization has all these, it's a complete organization. However, elbows cut fighters too easy.

don't add elbows, add stomps/soccer kicks and a third round.

I agree. They need 3 rounds or is it 2 rounds because it's a grandprix? PRIDE had 3 rounds regardless.
