Re: LIGHTWEIGHT - THE NEW SEASON: DRAFT *Official thread*

Post by Crease »

Quick recap of the draft rules:

When the draft order is announced, the Manager with the first pick will be given 12 hours exactly to make his selection. If does not state a fighter within the time limit, then the draft will move on to the next Manager, however he does NOT miss his turn - as he can still state his preference the next time he is online.

Advice - as such, all Managers are advised to familarise themselves with their draft order and as the draft draws near to their pick they should consider private mailing Mr Crease & Mr Fist their top 5 picks of the available fighters. That way, you will get the best possible fighter in your eyes.

Don't sleep in. Don't miss the boat. Make an effort and get some good fighters.

PUBLIC DISCLOSURE:

If GBP proves to be overly brutal, lucky, or cerebral, and the competition feels that they are being imposed upon by GBP's terrorizing competency, talent, and skill, Rules will be modified to make your participation here on the Sim a more pleasurable and self satisfying experience.

If GBP fighters beat your fighters down, with ruthless abandon, simply speak to one of our fair and balanced sim moderators, and BoxBuzz will be directed to go easy on your stable.

If GBP fighters should avoid your fighters, it is possible to have them brought in chains to the event, in order to satisfy your slightest wish.

If GBP fighter are rated too highly, just ask that they be voted out of the typical ratings curve, and/or out of any routine assessment aspects of the game. Rules that if GBP were allowed to compete as others do, would serve to further their superior strategery and tactical preeminence over the masses.

GoldenBuzz Promotions understands that YOU "the little guy" are not prepared or equipped to deal with GBP's state of the art, highly honed simboxing stable of stars.

There have been in the past, and will continue to be a vigilant group of moderators, referee's and "deciders" who will intervene if/when GBP inevitably overwhelms and out performs the competition.

Fair, Balanced, and Understanding interventions will be utilized should they (as has always been the case) once again dominate, outperform, transcend and intimidate the public at large.

Agreed. On second consideration, maybe we'll change it to 6 hours per turn.

We'll do this retrospectively with the whole 6 hour thing, so here's where we are at:

2. PPLUVTHIS - missed his turn (expired 22:15 my time)
3. Tomasino- missed his turn (expired 04:15 my time)
4. Fat Git - missed his turn (expired 10:15 my time)

So:
5. dannyliverpool is up (and he has 5 hours 56 mins to make his turn)


***And I will leave a message to all four of them letting them know that they can make their selection whenever they are next online***

GBP being in the middle of the draft is bad news for everyone.


Not at all fair to anyone. Last time we were near dead last.


A 12 foot electrical barbwire razor fence around our complex should be constructed immediately


Although, that still may not be enough to insure the safety of others.

It honestly seemed like way too many people signed up honestly. We usually start a season around 25, and 5 or so drop before the season is out. I think 10 or so people won't remember or have the time to even play this year on this list. We'll always have our solid core either way. Hopefully a few new managers can replace the guys who left the site.


Seems like it's my time to pick?
