Hello everyone! I have been given permission from Mike to start a womens MMA division at 135. I have decided it would be best to start the division with a tournament which will also decide who the champion is. I'm looking for 16 fighters to compete in this 135 pound 2 life tournament (meaning after you lose, you will fall into losers bracket). Must be 18 yr old fighters with a weight limit of 145 pounds. The tournament will be MMA rules, 3x5 min rounds, and a whole fight judging system. You must have a woman custom avatar to compete. (I will be giving out free basic woman avatars to anyone who needs one, and if you want something specific you can commission it for only $10k) Winner of the tournament will receive 200k. I will also be competing but I will not be testing my fighter to give myself a disadvantage. Creation date will be September 28th, first fight will be October 28th. Participants: Mae Joon Jason Hopson Dominicus Domingo Gut Punch

It’s not a bad idea, I just don’t have infinite fighter slots and putting my fighter into a division that probably won’t have tons of competition and won’t have many (if any) other orgs to sign with. For example, if you don’t like your fights, there’s really nowhere else to go. An island style season would make more sense but not actually on the island because that usually makes fighters unable to amount to something. It would make a lot more sense and much more people would do it if it was like that.

A few people now have suggested a Women's division would benefit from an Island-style event, with the 2-fighter extension of fighter slots in keeping with that & perhaps with an additional caveat that once that "season" ended the fighters would be wiped. Without the game having true support for women fighters let alone divison(s) for them & players having to make do with using the game engine as best as the game to allow them to facilitate this I think an Island format has promise to "test the waters" so to speak without affecting the wider game, so I also support those suggestions. Were it done that way it would allow Mike and anyone helping to get some hard evidence for how well it could work & perhaps provide an insight into whether further development towards women fighters & divisions is warranted. Some kind of separated pool for female avatars could be a first step in that process, controlling which fighters can have female avatars is probably a first step to making a women's division it's own thing within the game.

I just got home from my dad's in the last hour, I have the next event up later tonight...

Its better if the tournament starts before it so we end up getting to 400k quicker

WELCOME

Agree. If we're just going purely off accolades, I've always leaned towards FOTY over MOTY, as well as #1 P4P fighter over #1 Manager. It takes years to get #1 P4P fighters. Only takes 6 months to get to #1 manager. Homegrown > FA Goods Taking homegrown fighter to #1 is the ultimate achievement in this game because taking someone else's fighter to the top just feels dirty. I've gotten a few FA's in my personal HOF and I'm glad I never got them to #1. Sentimentally they just don't stack up with my homegrown fighters. But everybody has a preference. you can kinda look at FA's like IRL fighters who fire previous manager, but that not my style. Manager of the Year been overrated imo since the game evolved past early days. It's obviously quite an accomplishment, you gotta kick ass all year and finish on top. A lot of that top manager shit is just superior fighters, hidden farming, or plucking the best FA's off the market and winning a lot more than you lose because of it. Nobody is getting manager of the year with shit hiddens. LT in 2012 probably closest you get to winning Manager of the Year with majority homegrown roster full of unimpressive hiddens. LT never had a Tonal or Womba until he picked up James Proudstar and arguably Carl Creel. He had just started picking up the top FA's mid to late 2012 and by end of 2013 he was probably 50/50 homegrown and FA pickups. You take #1 slider wizard and give him best FA's and what do you expect? lol was like a 4+ yr run*. Unfortunately LT got bored pissing excellence on all you noobs and stopped creating his own fighters. Too slow of a process for the old GOAT. * LT even with a roster forged via FA and declining old men, was still ranked top 10 for a long time, up until semi recently iirc. Personally I think guys like @762x39 are the real managers of the year. Plays on Iron Man Mode. I could name many others but think Joe's probably the most universally recognized in the game for this. Homegrown fighters, takes any and all fights, short notice, etc. I'm way more impressed by shit like that and there's a lot of these guys out there. Now... I will say that Joe's probably being corrupted by the naughty coyote gang clique, but his morale fiber has thus far remained unwavered by the questionable company he keeps. @Alfred builds (or used to build) fighters how he envisions regardless of most successful meta. Kicks? Brits don't kick! Applaud that. GL getting to #1 but gotta respect the character. I used to be that way. Long gone are the days of <359K ID tho. Old alliance mate of mine, Tarmo, had a fighter nicknamed "The Nutcracker" Jean Pierre Babin who wasn't allowed to throw leg kicks, and he never did... until LT picked him up and started spamming kicks to the balls.. and rebranded him "The Sterilizer". You can take losses as the #1 manager and not budge an inch. You take a loss with #1 fighter and their rank drops. Manager pool is like 500 to 1000. Fighter pool has always been 5000+. One is definitely a lot harder than the other imo. I know I make it look easy, but 🐐 gotta 🐐 sincerely, KO King 👑 Womba was FOTY in 2013 and everybody after LT was carried by fighters that had elite hiddens

I read it. But your division will end. The fighters will live longer than the org. They'll bleed out into the game and nothing in the coding can stop that, currently. This has been done before and was a joke then. Its an even bigger joke now that we know the repercussions. It's a terrible idea and Mike should know better.

At 400k I’m now wanting to make a domestic violence org. Men verse women only in openweight. Women are all 135 and get bodied by 265 men
