  2. Tale of the Tape: KO Power

    Not quite.

    The hierarchy means that whatever is higher masks whatever is below. So for example, your guy might have a granite chin AND KO power indicators, but his granite chin (and insane flexibility on the left hand side TOTT when his flex is high enough) will disguise that. That's why people test early before they train too many physicals, as those can disguise things.

    It's then a double edged sword. Your granite chin might actually also qualify for 'cuts easily' and otherwise have no power or heart, but you'd not know unless you test/fight a bit as his granite chin will disguise any other messages at the start.

    You can use the general hierarchy to deduct what your fighter may or may not have. If he shows BRH/HH/KO Power then he obviously doesn't have a granite chin, but he may or may not have a solid chin. If he shows big heart, since that's quite far down the list, you'd know that he doesn't have that good a chin and he may not have great KO power (depending on which side of the TOTT he's on and what his punches are trained up to) - but at least he'd have good heart which is actually pretty important too.

    Granite chin means you have 130+ out of 150 possible chin points in hiddens, KO power is 130+, Heavy Handed and BRH is 100+ (though with BRH, if you see that instead of KO power, you can narrow it down to 101-130 KO power). Sometimes you'll see Lethal High Kicks which is also 100+ power (and is on the 2nd line, so sometimes you can still see this even with granite disguising stuff). Solid/Good chin is 101-130 chin.

    Those are the main ones. However, be aware that things like BRH/HH/LHK all need some secondary skills alongside having those hiddens. BRH/HH need punches and LHK needs kicks. KO power does not need this, but only appears on the left. That's why sometimes if a fighter tests on both sides early enough, he can show a KO power/solid chin combo.

    Other things to watch out for are the fighter introductions. Sometimes it'll say 'such and such has the power to get to X chin' or 'both these guys have really solid chins'. The really solid chins tends to indicate both guys have at least good/solid chins. Either they're both good/solid, one is good/solid and one is granite, or both are granite. The Y has the power to get to X chin doesn't always mean that guy has great KO power, just that it's higher (by an inch or a mile) than the other guy's chin. Thus, if you see that message against an opponent who you can see has a solid chin, then you'd know you have at least 102+ KO power minimum. Or, you can use it in combination with retired guy's hiddens revealed to deduct more accurate pictures (which is how you can figure out my former #1 p4p guy has less than 70 chin despite being a HW).

    Yeah, I was keeping it simple, this is a much more in-depth and fantastic explanation of what to look for when testing.

    Thanks

    I'm no longer there, but you could also try SSD in NYC.  He closed most of the divisions and is looking to reopen fully at 405k, but still has the openweight and HW divisions.  He might be interested in hosting that to help fill out those cards and might also let you be staff and book them.

    Silverback for sure. His avatars are great. Rei should be nominated to. His posters, logos and belts are crazy.

     I agree.  Even though I don't think these awards will do much of anything, I think Silverback and Rei should absolutely be nominated.  I would like to throw in Mae Joon(#117901).  If there is any question, take a look at some of the BE reviews.  They deserve more attention.

  5. Clothes all get dirty at same time?

    True that could very well be it. Do you know whether clothes are like the training supplements where there's different tiers of quality? Bc I've noticed some are upwards of 300 while some are low as 30.

    No, no quality difference.  That's more for specific designs.  Most of my fighters have basic black shorts and black shirts or stuff they got through sponsorships.  I usually get shirts and shorts in NYC for $15-$25 each.  I believe Fantasy Threads has plain black shirts and shorts for $15 each, so I'll buy in bulk there sometimes, or I think Brooklyn Threads has them at $25 where I buy them also.

    A bit confused with that. What does it mean left and right? And what is that order for?

    Left or Right is whether they are in the red or blue corner, as the ToTT is usually different depending on that.

    As far as the heirarchy, that means that the highest ones on the list tend to be the most desirable, as the fighter may also have the ToTT qualities below it.  That's why Granite Chin is so desirable, the fighter can also have every other hidden at a high level.  If I recall correctly, KO power is #2, I think.

    So I've been playing since around September, and just in the last month or so I'm noticing all my fighters' clothes are needing replacements at exactly the same time. Is this intentional or an update I didn't see? I've purchased a lot of the clothes at different times so it's just not making sense how today 7 of my 9 fighters suddenly all need new clothes. Anybody else noticing this?

    Mine are like that, but I also tend to replace lots of them at 1 time so I don't have to change a different fighters clothes every day.

    While I think there is some noise/variation, I'd be shocked if it's as deep as specific judges. I think the judge names are just drawn from a specific pool per location.

     

    But in case it is, Chris Edwards from London, you're absolutely going to get it on sight. ;)

    I agree and think it's unlikely, but I wouldn't be TOO surprised.  Some of the judges names are based pretty closely on some of the worst judges of that time period haha.

    I'd actually be interested if anyone ever took the time(I'm definitely not), to see if certain judges by name are the ones always dissenting, or if certain judges value different phases of combat/strikes differently.  I wouldn't put it past this fight engine.  There might be a Cecil Peoples in there that doesn't score leg kicks, etc.

    Sounds like they gave the other fighter round 3 which is weird. Does the game reward defence? He defended a few takedowns, sub attempts and had an escape? It shouldnt be rewarded but maybe they did? Or does the game have some random fuckery built in, every now and then we see a dodgy decision like in real life? 

    I think there is definitely random fuckery built in, otherwise every judge would score every round the exact same.  

  13. Ideas for a tournament? Post here

    That actually might be a fun ongoing format for an entire league, the more I think about it.  Anybody who loses at level 1 gets cut, title fights are always between level 9-10 guys, incoming guys all start between 4-6(or strict level 5, depending on hiring policy/ID restrictions), depending on their skill level(or hype/pop/rank).  The added fresh blood at times, the larger pool of fighters, and the fighters losing at level 1 getting cut negates lots of the issues I brought up.

    Just spitting out ideas right now, have one I think could work. Basically there are levels, 1-10, and all fighters start on level 5. Pretty simple, a win, you go up a level, lose you go down. First fighter to beat level 10 first wins. If you are the only fighter on your level or an odd number of fighters are on your level (not sure if that could happen, not a mathematician) you either wait there for training, or if the level 1 above or below you has a solo, they can fight. If you lose on level 1, you are out. I’m sure there is something wrong with this format, so if you spot any errors point them out. 
     

    I’m just looking for feeeback, so comment your thoughts and like/dislike. I do think that veteran managers who have experience running tournaments are more likely to garner interest for tournaments so if anyone likes these ideas PM me and we can work something out. If any of these tournaments happened we might need some donations for prizes since I’m broke, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Mike decided to chip in some VIP.

    It depends on how many participants where the issues arise.  There are scenarios with way too many rematches, with multiple winners, or with it basically being a regular tournament with an ongoing losers bracket.  Not bashing the idea, it's a good start, just might need a little brainstorming and specifics.

    He is unsigned since sometime (his last fight). His last contract was probably one fight deal.

    His last org is SMASH and it's an active org.

    I wasn't sure if you maybe signed something after SMASH.  Orgs disappear daily sometimes.  In that case, sounds like an error for Mike.

    That 5 from the screenshot indicates he has 5 fights left on contract which is weird.

    Yeah, I was messing around.  But maybe he signed a contract with an org that closed and it's bugged?  Might be able to fix it by having another org sign and dump him?

    I really like the concept and even enjoyed some of the articles.  I think it would be great if somebody re-booted it into a format like an MMA website.  I'm thinking like the top 5-7 section of MMAmania or BloodyElbow type website with headlines and you click for the full article.

    I wish I could have gotten #25, but it's unrelated to the Island or the league(and Curix already has it).  That's almost exactly what I've been looking for for Deon Graves haha.
