SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) Basically the game is to find the next big fighters in the UFC. Must be signed UFC fighters only, from the male weight divisions only.Everyone picks 3 unranked fighters from different weight classes. You must always have 3 fighters from different weight classesWhen your fighter has a fight a win via dec is +3 points a loss via dec is -1 pointWin via finish +5 loss via finish -3A draw or NC is +1+2 for POTN or FOTN+2 for beating a ranked opponentIf your fighter makes top 15 ranking you get a bonus +7 points, and that fighter has "made it" and a new unranked replacement must be found.Players can trade unranked fighters for no cost if they both agree to the transferIf a player has a fighter that is highly sought after but cant find a suitable trade, they can "sell" the fighter for points. Seller sets a price ie 3 points. Use your own discretion, ask for any further info.You can not spend negative pointsIf a player wants to drop a fighter to pick a different unchosen fighter it will cost -1 pointYou can not drop or trade a fighter if they are one week or less from fighting. Back to back events are exempt.Players may not drop sell or trade more than 1 fighter per card. That is 1 drop/sell or trade total not 1 of each.After 12 months the player with the most points will be declared winner, at which point it starts again.Game Open, New players welcome!Link to full list of current fightershttp://www.bloodyelbow.com/2013/1/29/3928296/ufc-roster-current-list-fightersPLAYERS:@TigerChampPoints:37Current Fighters: Jake Matthews LW Ruslan Magomedov HW Thomas Almeida BWWins:4Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it": Wilson ReisFighter For Sale:@cashfl0wPoints:69Current Fighters: Nick Diaz MW Rampage LHW Henry Cejudo FW Wins:10 Losses:3 NC:0Fighters "Made it":Ross Pearson, Nate Diaz, Rick Story, Chico Camus, Hacran DiasFighter For Sale:@Spartacus__Points:12Current Fighters: Brandon Thatch WW Andre Fili FW Elias Silverio LWWins:1Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:Points:31Current Fighters: Sergio Pettis BW Tony Ferguson LW Cezar Mutante MWWins:6Losses:2 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@MGunPoints:19Current Fighters: Michael Chiesa LW Jared Rosholt HW Hyun Gyu Lim WWWins:1Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@rain_wizardPoints:13Current Fighters: Chris Holdsworth BW Corey Anderson LHW Sean Strickland MWWins:1Losses:0 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@wanderleisilva101Points:34Current Fighters: Ray Borg FLW Adriano Martins LW Choi Doo-Ho FWWins:3Losses:0 NC:0Fighters "Made it":Max HollowayFighter For Sale:Points:11Current Fighters: Eddie Gordon MW Yves Edwards LW Wins:5Losses:6 NC:0Fighters "Made it":Patrick CumminsFighter For Sale:Points:10Current Fighters: Stephen Thompson WW Pedro Munhoz BW Takanori Gomi LWWins:1Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@Yesterdays_HeroPoints:11Current Fighters: Rob Font BW Patrick Holohan FLW Luke Barnatt MWWins:1Losses:2 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@IdentityPoints:38Current Fighters: Daron Cruickshank LW Amir Sadollah WW Nate Marquardt MWWins:3Losses:2 NC:1Fighters "Made it":Jordan Mein, Matt MitrioneFighter For Sale:Points:12Current Fighters: Aljamain Sterling BW Nicklas Blackstrom FW Jan Blachowicz LHWWins:1Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:@lapoPoints:9Current Fighters: Francimar Barroso LHW Nick Hein LW Russell Doane BW Wins:1Losses:4 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:Points: 12Current Fighters: Justin Scoggins FLW Robbie Peralta FW Brendan Shaub HW Wins:1 Losses:3 NC:0Fighters "Made it": Eddie Alvarez, Mitch GagnonFighter For Sale:@juice64011Points:7Current Fighters: Guto Inocente LHW Derrick Lewis HW Alberto Mina WWWins:1Losses:3 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale:Points:10Current Fighters: Alex Garcia WW Uriah Hall MW Cody Gibson BWWins:1Losses:2 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale: Points:23 Current Fighters: Gilbert Burns WW Elias Theodorou MW Soa Palelei HW Wins:3Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale: @GOAT_Transient Points:7 Current Fighters: Al Iaquinta LW Alan Jouban WW Anthony Birchak BW Wins:0Losses:1 NC:0Fighters "Made it":0Fighter For Sale: Edited January 25, 2015 by TigerChamp Edited Tag to Be Consistant Across All Games 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah Ive been thinking about doing one for a while and keeping it fairly simple was one of my main concerns. This seems pretty easy and shouldnt take too much work lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 Also, is there a link to the rankings. Are we talking top 10? I wanna know if my original picks will qualify. The rankings will be based off UFC s official rankings and all fighters picked must be unranked, therefore outside the top 15. I might make a slight adjustment to the OP 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 Okay got it. Got my 3 ppl. (women are included right?) When are you opening it up? Im going to have to say no to the women at this point simply because the there is only one weak division so it wouldnt really work, sorry. Ill see how many replies this gets ( its 10 pm where I am) overnight and will announce a start time shortly after, to give everyone notice. I have a bit to do tomorrow morning but ill make sure to keep on top of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xFINISHxHIMx 28,508 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 When are you opening it up? and who picks first? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 and who picks first? My plan was as follows See how many people want to play (its looking good so far) overnight. Tomorrow morning sometime when we have some numbers I will announce a start time. It will be on a first post first get basis. Post all three picks and if you are the first in with them they are yours, if someone else gets in first tough luck, youll have to try to buy them or pick someone else. Sound fair? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wanderleisilva101 3,574 Report post Posted July 28, 2014 Think we need a better idea for picks instead of first signed up gets first pick each time imo it'd be better as random but even it we keep that rule on the second time around picking the order should be reversed so first pick is last and last first. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well Im open to ideas, I liked Sparts suggestion because it would mean everybody should get at least one or two fighters they really want and by doing it one at a time we dont all have to be on at once trying to spam picks. Whatever the consensus is tomorrow im happy to go with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whatever the consensus is tomorrow im happy to go with. yeah sparts is a good idea I'm good with that I just think the 2nd time round should maybe be a reversed order of picking so people who join last get 1st choice of the 2nd fighter pick instead of always being last to pick that way they have more a chance to get a fighter they want but yeah we can see what everyone thinks. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 Alright sweet, so we have enough people and Im happy to go snake method. Final call to sign up Im going to make first pick in an hour Anyone who wants to play after picks have been made is welcome, but once picks have started you will have to wait till after the registered players have made their picks to join.

xFINISHxHIMx 28,508 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 What happens if a fighter moves to a different weight class and I already have a fighter in that division? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 what are we gonna do about guys like Nick Diaz who aren't ranked but we already know he's a big thing? I dont mind personally, yes he will get points short term but with the selling aspect fighters like him become a commodity and would encourage people to sell and trade. Just adds another element What happens if a fighter moves to a different weight class and I already have a fighter in that division? Then you must sell, drop or trade either of the two before their next fight. It should be pretty unlikely though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 Alright Im gonna get started with the first pick, and just to remind everyone we are making 1 pick per turn in the snake method of registered users My first pick will be Jake Matthews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SavageTC 35,379 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 Also just a note to everyone, There is currently 523 fighters on the UFC roster. When you take away the ranked fighters and womens divisions there is roughly 350 unranked fighters to choose from and this game will run for a year. If you initially miss out there will be opportunities down the track to pick up and trade other fighters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
