The Ultimate Underdogs has infromed me privately that given University committments, he is being forced to step down from ManMMA. As such, his team is being dispersed via an auction.
The Underdogs Special Request
Underdogs wanted something special to be done for his auction, so his points are being included with 3 of his "weaker" fighters.
The Following fighters are now being released via auction.
Cris Cyborg (50-13) FF
Megumi Fujii (32-25) FF + 1 point
Bobby Lashley (26-20) HW
Rampage Jackson (38-31) HW
Thiago Alves (39-16) MW
Paul Daley (28-15) MW
Akihiro Gono (4-4) LW +1 Point
Anthony Pettis (22-33) LW + 1 Point
(Italic fighters are the "game-changers")
Reminder on 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 Underdogs fighter. The team that offers the best one-for-one offer will be able to complete the trade and get the fighter. You may bid several times (like an auction) for the same fighter if you are outbid. Please make a new post though; do not edit your first post.
Traded (thus released) fighters will be available as regular released fighters after the auction period has concluded (and Sandmen has posted the official claims). The team that releases a player to claim one of Underdog's fighters may not acquire that fighter again for 1 full season (20 ManMMA events).
Nutshell Reminder (of regular auction rules)
- Quality of bid is usually pretty obvious, but if a determining factor needs to be taken into consideration, win percentage is the main one, most recent performances being another. If fighters have less than like, 8 fights more factors will be considered, but these have never been complex in the past.
- You CAN successfully claim more than 1 fighter if no one else puts a claim in on your secondary claim. I.E. If Cannon wins Jackson, and no one puts another bid in on either Pettis or Gono but he does, he can take them as well. If other bids are in (even if his secondary bid is better), the other team gets them. If 2 teams have secondary claims on the same fighter, it goes to best bid, and so on, and so on.
- After close, all fighters will be assigned to teams and released fighters will be released. Regular first-come, first-served claim/release procedures then follow.
The "Game-Changers"
- If the game-changers have multiple teams bidding, at close those teams with competing bids will be put into a randomized lottery draw to determine who gets the winning bid.
- Lottery modifiers such as team record will add to lottery odds, so that terrible teams have a slightly better chance of winning the auction - much like the NHL Lottery each year.
- Quality of your bid is also a large factor, so don't stop bidding on game changers if there are multiple teams bidding. If you bid a 20-5, and they bid a 7-17, you will have a notably better chance of winning the lottery.
- Regardless of the draw, 1 team will not get all game-changer fighters (unless there insufficient bids, then the randomization will continue), so if you want to bid on more than one, please make it clear which one of them you would prefer should a draw come about so you don't get your second choice over your first.
- Wins/bids on anyone other than the above game-changers will NOT be taken into account when determining the game-changer wins if it comes to a lottery draw. Meaning if you win Anthony Pettis, that will not be used against you if a Game-Changer Lottery is needed.
I hope that isn't too confusing. The first half is the same as we have been doing since ManMMA launched, and we have had no issues, but yeah. Any questions, ask below.
You may now begin. Auction closes at 5PM EST Wednesday, November 26 (2014).
