I'm undecided when it comes to this topic. I think women should have a place in MMA and so in MMA related games, period. They shouldn't be an aftertought. The problem is implementing it into mmatycoon, in an intelligent way. Maybe start of slowly, with a one big, "NPC" operated org, per city that people can sign up to. This way it wouldn't hurt the already existing orgs by forcing people to split up fighters between the two genders...?

How do you search for the top fights?

Pulling guard should utilise the takedown skill as well. After all, the fight commentary and summary count it as a takedown all the same and it also affects energy the same when they fail, as pointed out above. And should that not be evidence enough, what other secondary would it utilise? There is no replacement for it. Nandorossi is there a source that can confirm that speed helps with staying on the outside? The game help says that speed is only for shoot takedowns...

Mike, since a few managers now also have voiced that they would actually prefer to stay with the current system, I just wanted to ask you, if this is actually an option you are considering also? Your initial post sounds like a total revamp is definitely happening, the only question is how. But if enough managers would like to stay with the current system - maybe tweak it a bit - is that something that you would be willing to do, also?

How'd you find that anyway? I never get any returns on the searches for flights

I agree with this statement. I am not as experienced as a lot of the vets here, but personally I am not sure replacing the entire system is better than tweaking and overhauling the existing one. Essentially, no matter what you do, you'll never be able to come up with a perfect system. It's scientifically impossible. The current system has a few flaws that have been nicely pointed out here, but they can be worked on and it's not like outcomes are drastically unrealistic on a constant level. If you do, however, implement an entirely new system, you'll also implement new, unforeseen issues instead of refining the current one. And at the end of the day, no matter what the system is, people should always be encouraged to not fight for decisions. A damage favouring system actually does that quite nicely.

You will need a long time to create a high quality product or very generous sponsors. It requires millions for high Q. For 1 single product, yes. Stock is the quantity of products you can have in storage or on offer at any time, it is 2500 units per month. You can either order 2500 units of a single product or spread that number out over several products. If you score a 500 week (a week in which you sell 500+ units), you'll be rewarded with an extra 50 units you can order that month.

Yeah the ranking isn't necessarily the issue. I guess the desire is that the resulting match that's being made should be somewhat fair. One thing I saw from time to time with QFC is a total salad fighting a new generation killing machine (and if both fighters are new, the only way to regulate match making is through the manager levels). It can be potentially discouraging for completely new players and it's not very beneficial to the experienced manager who's just built another near perfect fighter. Except if he wants to find out about the hiddens, but I think most big Alliances feature respective systems for their managers to test their prospects.

That shouldn't be a problem...

I don't even think it's random. It just puts you in a waiting slot for the weight class and as soon as somebody else queues for that weight class, the match is immediately made. And it's also a black box in that sense that you can't really see who's waiting (presumably to prevent cherry picking/ducking). While I agree with you Comte, I think one problem could be that the wait time gets too long for the QFC if you further filter out potential opposition than the current filter that's already in place (Level 1 & Level 2).

Oh, Beef looks interesting. Mind taking on a few more (heavy) bodies after the season, Scooby?

Awesome, thanks for the help guys! Very informative.

I've been told that you need as many people sparring at the same time as possible. Would it in fact be more effective to spar with fewer people who have higher sparring value though?

Hi all, I've seen young fighters around with very high primaries. Is there a trick to popping them quickly? I know training the corresponding secondaries is also boosting the primary itself and then there's sparring. Anything else I am missing though? My physicals and secondaries are popping well, but primaries seem to come along slowly, despite frequent sparring. I appreciate any tips. Cheers, K

I'm an idiot. Thanks, man

Hey all, I feel a bit stupid for asking this, but in the chaotic game menu I sometimes can't find the most mundane stuff... . Like right now I simply wanted to look up another manager and realised that I don't even know where to do that. After pressing every button I can think of and reading through the helpwiki for roughly 30 minutes, I have given up. Can somebody tell me if there is a search menu somewhere from where I can quickly look up managers by name or ID? Cheers, K

Yes, I couldn't agree more! I really hope he comes back that he's healthy and things pick up where he left off.

Well we'll kind of need an update at some point. Some of my inactivity clauses are approaching their end and I am sure I am not the only one.

Are you guys active in Tokyo, too, Ben?

Yeah it really is a shame. Floppzzy had made this a highly active and attractive Org.

Hey all! does anybody know if the Org is still active? Cheers, K

Hey all - slightly related, so I don't want to open a new thread for this question specifically: I've pumped conditioning up to 14 on a few guys. Should I keep pushing until they hit 15 or can you take the foot of the gas once they're at 14? Cheers K

My heart stopped for a second there! Best April's fool of the day so far...

Public Relations representatives from Polar Bear Nutritions met with the reclusive Risto Häyhä ahead of his upcoming title fight. Our new technology experts have uploaded the transcript here for you to enjoy: PB: Risto, just like your fellow compatriot, race-driver Kimi Räikkönen, you’re known to be a man of few words. An attribute often associated with athletes from Finland. Why is that? RH: *Shrugs* PB: You share the same initials with fighter Ronaldo Hispanyola, who you fought last. Funny coincident? RH: Is this really the level of question you are planning to ask me throughout the entire interview? PB: Erm, we just thought the fans might find these little anecdotes funny and interesting. Okay, moving on…. You’re still very young at 19 and have your entire career ahead of you. But your next fight is already going to be for the much desired 155lbs WFL title. Something more experienced fighters couldn't get done when they had their chance. Is this opportunity coming too early in your career? RH: No. PB: What makes you deserving of this title shot? RH: What doesn't? I got thrown in the deep end with huge guys, one weight class above me and - except for Bobby - beat them. The much lauded Diver, who everybody had beating me in their predictions, couldn't make weight twice. Ronaldo - the supposedly best fighter at lightweight - had no answers against me for 3 rounds and people say he’s better than me at everything that I do. Who do you think should get this title fight instead? You maybe? PB: All right, thanks for the quick recap of your last fights, Risto. What can we expect from the upcoming title fight against Yodthanong? RH: Yod’ll want to keep this standing or he’s going to sleep and I’ll go wale-hunting with my belt!! PB: Thank you very much for the quick interview. We know you’ll have to get back to your training now and good luck in the upcoming title fight for the Undisputed WFL Lightweight Championship! RH: *Nods*

Cheers, Ragnar. I thought it'd be all with Mike. I was essentially hoping that some vet might have made enough experiences throughout a long career that we could get some educated guesses. I can't figure it out with my own fighters.
