Is it ok to match up fighters who have not been tended to during the week?

Or should we leave them behind, without fights when managers do not make their wishes known?

For the next week, you can have two votes, and you can change them at will if you reconsider you original response/s.

At the end of next week, I will begin following the decision rendered by the masses.

I would say a resounding Yes.

Even when I am selecting bouts for unmatched fighters, I tend to follow certain criteria:

1. Stable mates do not face each other.
2. I always look at the official rankings and pair up fighters of similar positions.
3. If there's an even number of unmatched fighters I don't include any CPU opponents in the bouts.

I see this as the greater of two evils - fighters don't even get any experience for that week then.

Obviously is always more preferable for Managers to match up their own guys - in that way - win, lose or draw it comes down to a Management decision - but sadly there are a few Managers who just don't take the few minutes to select a CPU opponent for their guys.

It confounds me really.

How about something slightly evil like fighters that aren't matched up take on top HWs either as a P4P fight or as a straight HW fight.

I've often thought that George Foreman could be sent in to "adjust attitudes" of some of these LHW's.

See I knew it was a good idea. Forget to match your fighters time to fight a foreman/Tyson/Liston etc

Hmm...Perhaps This week George will face ALL untended fighters.

It will be the sim equivalent to the Toronto 5.

An excellent idea. Though I need to get Tunney matched up.
