Hopefully this doesn't piss anyone off too much, but I am switching things up slightly for this season's draft.
I am comfortable with the number of fighters we have, and even now, some good fighters might not be fighting quite as much as they should. So instead of a traditional "add a fighter" draft, we'll do more of a draft-order-based fighter swap. So you can swap any 1 fighter for any other unclaimed fighter on your draft turn (so from the To Draft List, or the To Swap list). You can swap women for men and men for women if you want. We will do 2 rounds of this.
The draft order is as follows:
Round 1
1. Phoenix Fight Club - Jason MacDonald (dropped Diego Nunes)
2. Lord Byron's Conquistadors - pass
3. The HammerFists - Frank Mir (dropped Hallman)
4. The Mighty Ducks - Stipe Miocic (dropped Ellenberger)
5. The Newfoundland Rock - skipped
6. Team Nightmare - skipped
7. The West Coast Knockouts - pass
8. Team Ramrod - Thiago Alves (dropped Royce Gracie)
9. The Sandmen - Rin Nakai (dropped Felice Herrig)
10. The Minute Men - Shane Carwin (dropped Sean Sherk)
11. Ferocity - Khabib Nurmagomedov (dropped John Dodson)
12. Team GrappleMuch - Thiago Silva (dropped Kim Couture)
13. Camp Cannon - pass
Round 2
1. Phoenix Fight Club - skipped
2. Lord Byron's Conquistadors - Gray Maynard dropped Renan Barao)
3. Sandmen (from HammerFists) - Royce Gracie (dropped Luke Rockhold)
4. The Mighty Ducks - Erik Silva (dropped Josh Barnett)
5. The Newfoundland Rock - skipped
6. Team Nightmare - skipped
7. The West Coast Knockouts - pass
8. Team Ramrod - pass
9. Team Nightmare (from Sandmen) - skipped
10. The Minute Men - Oleg Taktarov (dropped Murilo Bustamante)
11. Ferocity - pass
12. Team GrappleMuch - Bas Rutten (dropped Megumi Fuji)
13. Camp Cannon - pass
The order is a modified order based on standings. I moved Phoenix up because there were not a lot of established ManMMA fighters available when he joined. I moved Sandmen down past Ramrod and Knockouts because he has 2 champions, and they have none. Cannon is last because he just selected his team from everyone that is currently available in the draft.
Again, you do NOT have to do any swaps if you don't want to, and again, we are not just selecting a new fighter to add. You can choose to swap any one fighter from your team for any unclaimed fighter, or you can choose to keep your team as-is. You may trade for draft slots (i.e. trade 2 points for a draft slot - to give yourself an extra switch-up)
