Fantasy UFC/Strikeforce/Bellator MMA League

  Welcome to Tapology’s first ever UFC/Strikeforce /Bellator fantasy mma draft, team will pick fighters, two from each weight division (HW,LHW, MW,WW,LW,BW,FTHW,+2 Reserves) Sorry no woman’s division. Fighters performances will gain a team points as shown below.

-Win, over title holder +10, in title defense +7, in main event +6, in main card +4, in undercard +2

-Lose, to title holder +4, in main event +2, in main card -1, in undercard -2

-Bonus , Finish in 1^st +2, loser -2, Finish in 2^nd +1, loser -1, Finish in 3^rd +.5, loser -.5, Draw +0, No Contest +0, KO of Night +2, SUB of Night +2, Fight of the night +1 each fighter.

    The draft will begin as soon as enough people sign up, 12 teams is the target. The draft is in a snake style format.  To fill a team you must fill each weight class with two fighters, reserve can be filled by a fighter of any weight class. Each fighter can only be drafted once, by one team, all Strikeforce/Bellator and UFC fighters are available to be drafted.

    One season runs for one year, each fighter you draft is contracted for 2 fights, this insures that each team is given an equal number of fights, so for example HW spot one is filled by Cain Velasquez, he begins the season with 2 fights, if he does not make two fights you may drop him and add a free agent who will then be contracted with the number of fights Cain had remaining. If Cain has more than two fights you may add a fight to his contract by removing it from another fighter on your team.  In essence each team has 30 (28+2 bonus) fights to play with during a year. Reserves have zero fight contracts if you move a reserve into a weight class he then has the number of fights of the fighter he replaced.

   I will be the commish and will score each fight after it has happened, only UFC , Bellator and Strikeforce events count for points. Trading of fighters is allowed but must be approved by myself the commish. Please feel free to post any questions or suggestions as I am sure this is far from perfect.

Im in! For sure. So when we get 12 people we pick fighters?

sounds like fun I'm definitely in

i'm in this one. i leave you a message. did gregory approve this?

I'm in.

In!

No I didnt get approval, do I need to? Yeah I guess we can just plan to start drafting when we get 12 people to sign up, or how many teams do you guys think would be good, and how should we determine draft position?

i would ask gregory first. i'm sure he won't mind but i think you should at least ask him. i'm still in.

@Clitestar.. I highly doubt you need approval it makes no difference to the site.. 10-12 sounds good. Well first come first served or else maybe by belt ? Highest belt chooses first?.. Looks like we could be started tonight we are halfway there now!

i agree. the order of the people who said yes. wednesday is a slow day on the message boards anyway.

the first 4 people were a minute apart on there posting.

Definitely no approval needed for this... it's just a forum thread!  Good luck, cool idea.

I'm in

This is gonna be so fun :D Might I suggest creating a blog sorely for posting results and leaderboard status.

I guess we will go 12 teams, we need an order so..

I will take 4th pick, thiago chooses pick position, then cash, wolfman, mysticninja, then geez

7 people!.. So say I got to bed now.. And 5 more people join do I get kicked or do ye wait for me? Haha

Not going to bed yet by the way just wondering! So I am making the first pick once we have 12?

No thiago, we will give a 24hr pick grace period, after that your pick drops until you select again, like the NFL
