Guest Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 will we get a notification when the tourney is full? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eveas Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Man this needs to be filled up soon. No, I'd prefer it waits 4 days. When this popped up all my fighters were locked into fights, since I had no clue this was going to happen. I had to wait until one of my fighters completed their scheduled fight. He managed to make it into the tournament, but he has an 8 day injury and about 8 day energy recovery. 4 days to fill and 4 more to start would be just about perfect.

Eveas Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 To clarify the drop down is available but my fighter doesnt show up in the slots but their weight, etc... is shown up top. Look to the right of each weight/division. Any you are eligible to participate in with a fighter will have a green check to the right.

Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'll have a couple more fighters free in 24 hours which I will enter into the tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 If we're struggling to fill up tomorrow, I'll sort something out maybe some bot fighters or something, or ask if anyone wants any fighters teleporting over. Bot fighters would be awesome, Rio has no on at 170lbs Div 1, Tokyo has 1 guy. We would wait months for it to fill :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I think if we wait a week or so it will fill up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nephilim Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 Darn. There were some openings a day or two ago and I had a fight scheduled. By the time I fought, the spot got filled up. Maybe next time. I'm still curious to see how this plays out though so I will be paying attention to it. I love grappling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I waited 2 days to enter a second guy into a bracket I had one guy in already ... bracket closed and I am fighting myself ... ugh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 MikeTycoon ... rather than using BOTS ... can you pull from the retired fighters database and actually pull fighters that had the skills to be competitive? Not sure how complex that is to do but I think that would make it more interesting then using bots ... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MMATycoon Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'll see if I can write a script to mail people who can qualify for the open brackets, then suggest they join. That should fill things up better and I can use it in future, automatically. I think in future we'll do 8 cities of 8 instead of 4 cities of 16 - that should be easier to fill.

MMATycoon Posted August 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 p.s. paul - not sure you will be fighting yourself - wait till the bracket actually populates properly and displays the tournament bracket format, when all the sections are full.

mbarr72908 Posted August 25, 2013 Report Share Posted August 25, 2013 When does they start? I need to know when to travel my guy. we will get a message when it is full, then four days after that it will start I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surgeelurgee Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 I agree I think if we wait a week or so it will fill up. +1 I have 14 days injury. Definitely would like to wait a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Need a bloody 'Waiting for TWGC' message in the next fight section. Matchmaking has turned into a pain in the arse 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomtom80 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Yeah. This cant happen too often. Maybe one TWGC event/year(18 weeks)for weight class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 So Rio's and Tokyo's Div at 170 pounds is still with 1 guy (COMBINED!) can we do sth about it already? :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

embalmer Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 Have a redbelt, ranked for div 2 that im more than happy to put in div 1, if the spots dont fill up, and/or if its possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted August 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 We're just programming it to open up so you can go 1 division higher, if that division hasn't filled up after 4 days. The "Waiting for TWGC" is also being programmed today. We're also running a script to see who is eligible but hasn't entered, then we're gunna do "Message from fighter X" asking the manager to sign them up. We'll set this to auto-run after 4 days or something along those lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4j0r Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 suggestion Since the fighter isnt going to take a hit to energy for participating in this event, it might benefit everyone overall if signing up for this dosent prevent them for participating in organization based fights. I dont own an organization anymore but I know how hard matchmaking can be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMATycoon Posted August 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 It's not because of energy that it's blocked from doing both - it's because they might be in different locations, or worse still, fighting twice at the same time, which is impossible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rac2 Posted August 26, 2013 Report Share Posted August 26, 2013 think of real life... if the dude is fighting for ADCC he won't get a fight in Bellator at the same date. We just need 1) better control for orgs and managers and 2) more time notice (our first run was really on short notice and nobody was able to plan for it)... and this will be perfect. I also think we need at least a couple of events an year... one is just not enough 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
