"Rumblr," a pending app idea, is pitching itself as Tinder, but for brawling. Like the dating app, Rumblr users would meet strangers, but instead of hooking up, they'd be swinging right hooks.

"We have raised relatively substantial funding from private American investors and the app is fully developed," the Rumblr team told the Daily News in an email.

The beta for the fighting app will be launched on Nov. 9, at 5 p.m. EST, the team said.

"Rumblr is an app for recreational fighters to find, meet and fight other brawl enthusiasts nearby," according the app's website. It encourages users to insult their matched opponents with this pro-tip: "tell your match what you don't like about their picture."

The fight's location and time is also publicly broadcasted so other users can come and watch the melee, according to the website.

More than 78,000 people have signed up for beta access, an email sent out to the lucky early-bird brawlers showed. The email also claimed to be giving away ten pairs of golden brass knuckles to ten people who tweet about the app.

what the f***?!?!

So... cops will just download the app, wait for a fight's location to be publicly broadcast, and then arrest them. This is a well thought-out business model.

How... How the hell does anybody make any money off of any of these ****ing ideas?

 

[ThePhantasm]

i guess this app might be useful for Arrow_22's training, so there's that

 

[Perfect Cell]

I assume this is just how the Foot Clan recruits.

i think if i was the cops i just wouldn't do anything, or wait until the fight was over and then clean up the mess

 

[Superwoman Prime]

A+ for creativity?

Wouldn't there also be like 0% chance Apple approves this app? The mock-ups show iOS, not Android, so... good luck with that.

 

[ThePhantasm]

"The app is not available yet, but the website said it's 'coming soon on the App Store.' The team was directly working with the iOS store to hash out legal issues preventing Rumblr's approval, they told the Daily News."

yeah... that'll happen

I used to be involved with the Dog Brothers. Went to their Gatherings of the Pack, and even I think this is freaking ridiculous.

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

Are there people who like fighting this much? I've only been in one "fight", basically I got punched in the face and told the other guy he won. That was enough for me haha

 

[ThePhantasm]

i guess so... 78,000 people have signed up for beta testing already

 

[Perfect Cell]

-50 actual lunatics looking for combat.

-77,950 bros who signed up just so they could brag at a bar about being in a fight club, but will delete the app as soon as they're done showing it to people.

 

[ThePhantasm]

you have more faith in humanity than i do...

 

[DJ_KiDDvIcIOUs]

How do they get around the liability issue? This just seems like they could get sued super easily

 

[Lily Adler]

Better than the Peeple app idea.

 

[jokesonm3]

This is Batman training 101 people, embrace your inner ass kicker inside of you.

 

[Lily Adler]

Tumblr should sue though. I'm going to make an app for easy houses to steal from. I shall call it Burglr.

Darwinism: The App.

Yeah, this app is a pretty good population control tool. Let the idiots punch each other to a pulp.

 

[Unbreakable Lex]

Imagine the enemies you could setup with this thing! Find out where your enemy will be and put him on Rumblr ready to tangle with the baddest the world has to offer!

Or, if you are into MMA or other combat you could use this app to find a real live sparring partner.

Thus it was this app that caused the divergence of man's evolution into the Morlocks and Eloi.

I Got that reference.

Thus it was this app that caused the divergence of man's evolution into the Morlocks and Eloi.

Although to be more fair, the Morlocks are the coders who create apps, and the Eloi are the dumb people who use them.

"Brah you wanna fight?"

"Yeah brah we gon fight!"

"Okay...well first download this app so we can find the best location to tussle."
