As good managers and trainers, you are all aware that it's important to exercise oversight and keep your fighters inspired and well trained..
So we can all be sure that each and every managed fighter always shows up in top condition.


However....conditioning checks are available.....so far ALL fighters have showed up in top shape....or assumed to be. The software provides an option that can be utilized. Should we subject pool fighters to a condition check? Have your say. Starting Week 10 IF conditioning checks are voted in.....all pool opponents will be subject to such checks. If not....then all opponents will be assumed to be in top condition for their fights.

I think, given that our fighters are always in 'Prime' condition, it would be a little unfair to disadvantage the pool fighters here.

Then again, there are some mean hombres in that list, so out of pure selfish intent, it wouldn't be bad (albeit a bit of a low move - see Tiozzo - Tunney I and II for prime vs prime potentials).

We could, potentially have CPU fighters beating our belt holders, more frequently....a bit of 'chaos', if you will, as both Commish's are partial to elements of pandemonium and discord.

Part of the lower tier of the pools is that they often showed up in less than stellar condition in reality....not the case in the history of the better fighters. So in some ways.....it's more realistic to allow the pool fighters to go on drinking binges, not train, or over train... the random aspect is interesting and perhaps more reflective of a journeyman's attitude.

IN fact this is the first season where "top condition" was mandatory.

I'm good either way....the poll is currently tied. Can we get everyone to chime in? If there is a change that change will begin with Event #10. If' it ends up a tie, the commissioners will decide and inform you.

.............. if all fighters are coming in in top shape...(as if they always are in training) with no computerized randomization regarding lack of training, overtraining, personal drama etc.....the idea that a Pool opponent will end up on top at the end increases.

If there is no bias vs the pool, then well trained and managed fighers have little edge....(.as we are seeing). It's the very best version of all fighters that will be represented in every fight. A bit of a dreamier simulated world....but interesting, nevertheless.

It's up to you!

Currently having a tough pool is leading the voting. I'm surprised, but not disappointed as it's equally interesting either way..
