I'm in the process of organizing a fantasy league in the noob jack section.

quick question

can I call it the MMANews Fantasy League?

its totally free for everyone

I'll do most of the work myself, to help it get going, and don't care if the site promotes it

I just want it to be free to join

we can call it something else if we can't

thanks in advance

you're all welcome to join

I doubt they would give to flying shits.

[end it with a left]

what kind of league were you thinking about starting up?

[Trodden]

its a fantasy league where you gain points on how your picks win or lose

but if theres like 50 people, there wouldn't be enough active fighters to go around

so I thought if we had different leagues, we could have different rules in each, or whatever rules they (the forum members participating) wanted

some leagues could have no negative points, or some can be really advanced and score TD's, sub attempts, etc

our own scoring system based on your level of MMA knowledge

some could be more advanced then others, and when we have draft/trade season's, you could switch to a league more to your taste.

so far its just me and two others, so we'll pick a few fighters, decide our point system, and hope our fighters do well

but think of the strategy. lets say we start today, and the next draft is Jan 1

you would need to pick a fighter that has a fight in some MMA pro org coming up by then

Jan first, you can trade, or drop fighters for a different one

there could be arrangements between people, you give me the fighter fighting saturday, you get my next draft pick, etc

all the work is done online, such as fight stats, and the lowest in points can get first pick at draft.

the game just evolves



it wasn't that I thought they would care, but at least I gave ample warning.

Im in....



is that other one already over?

[Trodden]

thats fantasy based, as in you could have a fight between bruce lee and anderson silva

this is only based on the outcome on real fights, and how we agree to score points

thats all

if we could get everyone together, we could start picking fighters this week, with the PPV next sunday

I'll go ahead and call it now,

anyone who wants to join, its free, and we'll start picking fighters next monday.

if you don't like the game, quit any time and it won't screw us up, and its free.

look at all MMA events between now and Jan first, and pick out a few in EACH weight class, in case someone picks your fighter

we'll decide who goes first later, then list each fighter you want,

I'll post some basic point scoring, and we won't do negative for now

win 5 points
then
ko 4 more points
sub 3 more points
tko 2 more points
decision 1 more point

then when draft time comes, last place gets first shot at trades and new fighters, top places get bragging rights and last picks

msg anyone you think would be interested, everyone's invited, and its free

I give one and only one flying shit.......

Other than that, I could give a shit less (However, I do not own the rights to MMANews in any way, shape or form)
