New policy, feel free to chime in.

Post by BoxBuzz »

When someone calls a fighter out.....and the acting manager of said challenged fighter does not "veto" suggested event or does not respond at all.....maybe it means...."I shall not shirk, and am ready ,willing, able and delighted to have my fighter face any challenge" .....rather than the more common and negatively assumptive....."I didn't get around to it this week".

With that said....I will assume the former, until acting managers express their disagreement to this new policy of "positive and proactive assumption".

Why should we assume anything else but the best?

I will be open minded to all opinions, and do offer my apology to any manager who thinks this decision runs counter to "best sim practices". I am open to a fair debate if anyone feels the need to re-open this subject.

To put it simply:
If your fighter is challenged, and you do not chime in over the course of the week, the fight is on.

Don't be confused. If a manager expresses his desire, it shall be done just as he wishes. This policy only comes into play if you have NOTHING to say for the week, AND one of your fighters is challenged.

All for it. Is there a time limit of a day or two, though? From time to time I miss a day "checkin in".

Rather than start a thread about this, given the number of draws and the calibre of opponents,, would it be a good idea to extend the fight distances to the championship rounds?

Back to thread, I personally, have no issue with what you suggest Buzz.

Cheers mate. These new commissioners better pull their socks up, they can't keep relying on me to come up with these fantastic ideas.

Not true.....you are the subcontracted vendor of services......you are the "brain trust".

You are expected to deliver, per the agreement.

Reliance is assumed.

Now, please come up with another great idea, before the deadline.
