Hey guys Coach brought up to me the today this fantasy league at topgunmma.com I looked over it and we did a simulation of a bidding draft where you bid on fighters and get points and everything. I looked on the boards and it looked dead, but I noticed Reaped has been on there!
So first of all I am asking you how it went and if this system is reliable....
Also I think it would be cool for the 6 of us to start a Prediction Affliction League what do you all think? You never have to worry about someone not paying attention and what not because we are all pretty active.
Like I said Coach, Rico, and I did a simulated draft and we would love to start this thing ASAP! Get the draft going soon so we can start bidding and what not. I was looking to see if you guys (Basically Iceman and Reaped) were down because the 4 of our are ready lol.
Just let us know and we can set a draft date, as soon as we can.
Also how many rounds do you guys think we should do? I say no more than 10. The #7 stuck in my head but we can discuss it later just post here what you think and we can go with it from there.
Thanks guys! Just trying to add to the PA Excitement!!! ;D

yeah it's pretty good. the best one is the bidding draft IMO as you can drop fighters and bid on new ones.
The trick is to make the bidding time really low. I didn't understand it and set it to something like3 mins.. but that's 3 mins per person!!! you only need 30 seconds to decide if you're going to bid against someone or not.. so set the times low!
Or I could set one up. I already have 2 on the go.
On another site I go to, I did a fantasy draft for MMA and then found topgun's site and added the fighters in there and it's working well, but after the draft there isn't any trading or anything so it's not very active. The bidding is fun because you can drop fighters and bid on new ones. It also makes ppl go back and check to make sure someone isn't getting a fighter cheap.

Alright THECHAMP doesn't get off work till 9pm but I will call him and I can run the draft for him until he gets home around like 9:15pm.
So lets go with 9pm eastern time.
Here is a run down of the settings I am thinking, if you think something else would be better let me know and we can run with it.......
HOW POINTS ARE SCORED ----> Fights are scored depending on where they fought during an event, starting at 1. The closer they are to the main event, the higher the number the fight is worth. ----> Points are only scored for a win. ----> You can set other organizations to be a ratio of this. For example: If TUF cards are set to 50%, then they will only receive half the points. This makes sense since the card is not as significant. ----> Points can be determined for how many, if any, a fighter will receive for taking over or defending a Championship belt. ----> Additional points can be awarded for TKO/KO or Submission victories if you desire.
Season Bid Timer: (Believe this is how long it takes to win a fighter off Free Agency) 1 Day (shortest possible time)
Point Modifiers: - Not sure how high we should set these but here is what I am thinking....
KO/TKO = 10 Bonus Points Submission = 10 Bonus Points Title Fight Win = 20 Bonus Points (Was thinking 15 but might as well make title fights really important right?)
Organization Ratio: (Determines while companies are more important and points count 100% or not) - Here is what I am thinking.....
UFC = 100% Affliction = 100% WEC = 100% TUF = 75% (Not sure if this is like the fights during the season or what) DREAM = 75% HDNet Fights = 75% Strikeforce = 75% WVR = 75% (Not sure what this is)
--- Main thing is should they by 75% or 50% and do you agree with the 100%'s???
Draft Settings: Snake Draft
# of Draft Rounds: 7 (Not a lot and not too little)
Bid Timer: 1 Minute (quickest possible time)
Start Time: 9PM EASTERN TIME
------ Alright what do you guys think about those settings? Any arguments? If not then we will use them for the draft tonight, try your best to be available because we will have to cancel the whole thing if you can't show up and we don't want you to BE THAT GUY!!!

I don't have the link yet cause I didn't make the league I was seeing what settings you guys want first. Do you want me to just make it with those settings? And yeah Ice you register on the site I will give you the link to register and it is like fantasy football but you BID on the fighters instead of just picking them up. you have a salary cap of 1 Mil and you buy the fighters. You will still want to have money left over after the draft to bid on fighters on free agency! Here is the link Ice, www.topgunmma.com/ufcwar/ look over it and what not, we are doing the Salary Pool style game. --- The thing with the draft is whoever is first will pick any fighter they want and we ALL bid on that fighter. Just because they pick the fighter to bid on doesn't mean they go to his roster, whoever wins the bid wins the fighter. If at 5pm you guys don't want to change any of the settings I posted I will make the league and post the league # and password for you all to join in.
