MattyBlayze Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Just a reminder that fighter creation is June 20th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 If I don't get the money I'm going to buy two slots for in time, I might have to drop out as well. Hopefully, though, they'll arrive during this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully, though, they'll arrive during this week. Remember, fighters need not be created ON June 20th...just ON OR AFTER June 20th. With 3 months training time before the first round, an extra couple of days won't kill you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Sorry Shiv-- you know how much I support Blitzkrieg...but I just can't allow myself to fight in an "alternate" tournament =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 Not an issue, completely understandable! However, I'm positive that if you win 1-2 fights in it, youll get entry into TUM, there WILL be that many dropouts. Plus, winner of the alternate tournament should be the first title defense for the TUM winner and since it was an even playing field for both, thats as good as winning TUM (at least, in terms of the pride of it all). Just saying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying! Ehhhh,, it's not like he should be the first one to get entry, as there are 10 managers higher rated than him on the list, so obviously they should get preference over him if they also win "1 or 2 fights", (with all things being fair at least).

Of course...here is how it works (and this did happen in TUM I)... The 64 entrants for TUM II have been selected. Those 64, no matter what, are participating unless they go inactive or pull out for whatever reason. If someone goes inactive, or pulls out, that person will be replaced by the highest ranked alternate manager at that time. I suspect that from now until the first round fights in September that several people will "disappear" and need to be replaced (thus, the needs for Alternates). Once the first round begins, the Alternate tournament will run parallel in some form (last time we ran Alternate fights one week later). If a fighter who has advanced in the tournament goes inactive (for example, HbK went inactive as the #1 seed last year after the first round), he is replaced by the highest ranking manager left in the Alternate Tournament - meaning, if you're the 65th manager, but you lose in the first round of the Alternate tournament, you don't get the spot. And, like Shiv said, the winner of the Alternate tournament (Luther Pope last year) will be the first title defense for the TUM Champion - which, in our eyes, is almost as good as winning the tournament since all things are still equal at that point.

Guest Posted June 10, 2010 Report Share Posted June 10, 2010 What I meant was that if you win a couple you'll be near the too ranked alternate for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
