Pigs-On-The-Wing 6,220 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 I still have two more picks, genius. Yeah, you're right. Rumble didn't fight Phil Davis and immediately jump up to ranked fifth or anything... what was I thinking?! Rumble beating Davis is a far cry away from Diaz beating Silva. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pigs-On-The-Wing 6,220 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) You're just salty that you asked about him and then I drafted him. lol no. i find it amusing how defensive you're getting though. Even if Diaz beats Silva, you get 3 points. Whats next for Nick is even more questionable in terms of him winning. Either way one of us won't be here to play by the time the fight happens.

Even if i am wrong, the the rules weren't exactly written clearly. " When your fighter has a fight a win is +3 points a loss is -1 point If your fighter makes top 15 ranking its +5 points" It says "its +5 points." Meaning contingent on making top 15 the wins will be +5 points. Thats the way i took it. Edited July 29, 2014 by SteelerNation43 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cashfl0w 104,153 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 copy and paste Wins and losses are entirely separate from rankings points. Hence them being on different lines. Nice try though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SavageTC 35,347 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 OK to clarify this making the top 15 was +5 points, and the wins from there on out would be three points. So if you unranked fighter beats a guy its +3 then a day later he gets ranked you get +5 for making rank. All wins after would be worth +3. I dont want to go changing the rules too much but I am open to tweaks if people think it will make the game more strategic etc. Spart mentioned extra points for achieving a higher rank, and i was thinking that if a fighter got ranked you should have to drop them and pick another, to make it harder. This will be fluid for a while, while we get things started 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SavageTC 35,347 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 top 10 should add another +5 and top 5 another +5 champ+15 Like I said that was an idea Spart mentioned and I had also thought about. Im not going to change the concept or basics in any major way, but if the majority would prefer this then thats what we'll go with. Obviously if we cant come to an agreement I'll make the executive decision. And If possible I would like to have any rule adjustments finalised by last pick of the first round, so we all know whats going on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wanderleisilva101 3,574 Report post Posted July 29, 2014 Nah that means guys like Diaz who are only allowed to be drafted coz of refusing fights and getting removed from rankings would automatically get 10 points minimum win or lose his next fight. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was the reason I thought it might be better if we had to pick a new fighter once they get ranked. You pick an easy win, you get some quick points then you have to start with someone new.
