Million Dollar Tournament (LW)

[Crease]

The Million Dollar Tournament (MDT) is a seasonal event in the BoxRecSim, it only comes around once-a-year and it is a HOF recognized event.

The MDT was first devised by the now-transferred PIITB Promotions, where the inventor, a former Sim Brother of ours known as "DetroitHxC" created this seven-week boxing tournament in order to find out who had the stamina for such a marathon.

The MDT is an open tournament of 32 fighters in which ANYONE can enter - and if they do so, they will bring their titles along their MDT journey with them. During the MDT series, all Title rules and regulations are relaxed in order to help the tourney run it's natural course.

The structure of the tournament is - a group stage (8 groups of 4 fighters) with the top 2 progressing through to the second round (the last 16) and from there becomes a straight knockout competition, essentially a situation of:
you win & you're through..... you lose & you're out..... Any draws will be replayed to find a winner that same week.

All Managers should note that upon application of the tournament, they will then by legally required to see through this obligation, there can be no withdrawals, EVER!
Though if a Manager does enter, his fighters will not be able to fight each other. Also, World Champions would not be able to meet each until the Semi Finals. So, the stakes get ever higher as the tournament progresses.

MDT success is rated as a high honour in Simland, the winning Manager will be financially imbursed with $1 million simdollars. Along with that, the triumphant boxer will be remembered in the MDT Roll of Honour which can be found in the HOF.
And lastly, the victor will be awarded a guaranteed place in the end-of-season Super Six - the most highly exclusive club in all of Simland featuring the best of the best. You won't get this ticket anywhere else.

So, have you ever wondered what a Million dollars looks like?


One fighter this season will find out... And gain the ownership of the Million Dollar belt (which cost a million)


The MDT will begin in Week 25.

BRING IT ON!!!

[HyacinthusTurnipseed]

So, fighters will be in the tournament between three (group stages) and seven weeks? Are all the fights 12 rounds except the ones that are also title fights? When does it start?

Oh what the hell, Ted Kid Lewis and Manny Pacquiao will enter.

Here's a place where no one can run....no one can hide.

[BigJuicyHog]

I salute all of you Managers who have gambled on this venture.

[Tomasino]

Both my guys want in. If only to teach old Buzzard some manners.

[Crease]

Nice one gents.

If need be, we'll throw in eight CPUs (1 for his group) to fill up the MDT, realistically we can't put it back at longer. With that in mind, there's only four places available.

[BoxBuzz]

How's about those abandoned fighters? They have been mistreated and deserted.

Let them in!

[Jpreisser]

Hank Armstrong wants in.

[Crease]

How's about those abandoned fighters? They have been mistreated and deserted. Let them in!

No, we've done that before and a guy was able to go all the way through to the Semis, eliminating active Managers from the tourney. Those discarded fighters won't be offered a shot at glory.

[Crease]

Hank Armstrong wants in.

Just the one? If you fully commit, you stand double the chance of winning it.
;;-)

[BigJuicyHog]

You dont have my fighters in the list yet Crease.
