Grand Prix Proposal

[The Texas Rattlesnakes]

Hello, fellow ManMMAers, some of you may know me as the guy who won last season's Grand Prix, others may know me as that one annoying American teenager that showed up three years ago and won't bug off. I have a proposal to spice the Grand Prix up a little. Here's my proposal:

The Open Weight slot on GP teams is going to be replaced by the new weight class. Instead of having a five man team, I propose a 7 man team. Utilizing both women's divisions, and the four men's. In the case of a three to three tie, the open weight would act as a tie breaker. The one problem with this? Playoffs would be downsized to 4 teams, rather than eight to make up for more fights happening. Thoughts?

Seems like a lot of work for Justin

No thanks

Not to mention, I didn't even see the 8 teams downsized to 4 teams part. It's a definite no from me.

That was the part that had me pass. Only way I would ever decrease the teams in the grand prix is if we had less teams or something, then you could do like a bye for round 1 for the 1st and 2nd teams and have 3-6 or whatever face off. But adding more fighters just to remove teams doesn't up the "fun for all" factor for me. I'm only big on suggestions that widely improve the enjoyment of the league rather than the few.

Wasn't well thought out. I dig the premise, not the execution.

I didn't want it to be cut down to four teams, just the seven man teams thing, but I had to minimize the workload some way to keep it balanced for Justin.

That's fine... I proposed something similar once too. Again, I dig the premise. 👍
