Tapout Release-A-thon.

[The Sandmen]

Tapout has resigned. As a result, these guys are released:

Lyoto Machida (3-1)
Randy Couture (3-1)
Rich Franklin (3-1)
Forrest Griffin (2-1) - injured til about ManMMA 16
Frank Mir (1-3)

Here's how this will work. If you are interested in someone, post a proposed one-for-one trade offering the best fighter you are willing to trade for that Tapout fighter. Once 24 hours The team that offers the best one-for-one offer will be able to complete the trade and get the fighter. Traded (thus released) fighters will be available as regular released fighters after this 24 hour period has concluded. A team that releases a player to claim one of Tapouts players may not claim that fighter back again.

Nutshell
- You can only successfully claim one fighter, but you can put claims in on several.

- When there is a fight record discrepancy due to a new team (i.e. someone offering a 4-0 fighter and a new team offering a 1-0 fighter) the newer team will have seniority over older teams as long as they have submitted their best fighter - this is because older teams have picked their teams via first-draft.

- After 24 hours, all fighters will be assigned to teams and released fighters will be released. Regular first-come, first-served claim/release procedures then follow.



You may now begin. Auction closes at 9PM EST Friday, February 24. You have a touch more than 24 hours.

Wanderlei Silva (2-2) for Lyoto Machida (3-1).

I believe I out-bid Knock-out's, as I think Aldo is 1-3.
