 Gameplay Rules

• Highest score at the end of the year wins
• On the 1st of each month, you will be able to drop a fighter and add any free agent. First dibs will go to whoever is last in the leaderboard and last will go to who's leading. Each player will have five hours to make their decision and if you don't reach the deadline you will be passed over and have to keep what you got. For any tied scores it will be randomized to know the full order. 
• Once your prospect signs with the UFC you will make a replacement. 
• No drafting/replacing a prospect rumored to sign with the UFC/Bellator by a credible source
• I will allow trades but both competitors must confirm with me before it's official
• Once you are issued a replacement  (UFC signing) you have a week from the fight to make your replacement to avoid stalling. If you fail you won't have a replacement.
• 
  

 

 Scoring 

• Prospect wins a fight= 10pts
• Prospect loses a fight -10pts
• Amateur wins= 5pts
• Amateur loss= -10pts
• Beat another competitor's prospect= 20pts
• Lose to another competitor's prospect= -20pts
• Wins/defends regional title= 15pts
• Wins the ultimate fighter= 30pts
• Wins PFL tournament= 50pts
• Sign with the UFC= 25pts

 

For anyone interested, I'm gonna be going over every team giving my grades for each pick and my honest thoughts on each team. https://www.patreon.com/posts/2024-prospect-gp-95695036?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_link

Will this be under the "Prospect Galore" tier?

@Cheese32165 

yes

_____________________________
3rd round pick Khalim Nazruloev (8-0) faces Ilimbek Akylbek Uulu (8-1) Friday night at One FC !
(MacShake)

@mmawizzard 

What happens when a fighter misses weight? 
For example JaCobi Jones fighting for his title missing weight? 

Just curious.

* Edited at 01.12.2024, 9:06 PM ET *

Nothing really changes. If he had won he would've just got the 10 pts instead of the 15 for a title win since he wasn't eligible to win the title
