ValentinasAss Posted April 5, 2017 Report Share Posted April 5, 2017 Last Updated 4/23/2017: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages: Knockout FC and MMA Tycoon are proud to present the latest and greatest NEXT BIG THING in combat sports – Midget KT!!! http://resources0.news.com.au/images/2008/11/15/va1237341047404/Midget-boxing-match-6351354.jpg Here by popular demand and around for as long as that demand exists, 315k+ 135lb little people will bludgeon each other according to KT rules for your enjoyment. We will be holding a Swiss-system tournament to get the ball rolling and to crown our first champion. The division will remain intact after the tournament and will continue to hold KT events every 3 weeks for as long as we can maintain an adequate number of fighters. Tournament overview: The tournament will be held according to a Swiss-system tournament structure, featuring fights every three weeks, and match-ups based on the fighters’ scores throughout the tournament. Fighters will not be matched together more than once during the tournament rounds and no one will be eliminated until the final round, with each fight running on KT/Muay Thai rules only. For the final tournament round, the top 2 fighters at that time will face each other in 5 three minute rounds to determine the tournament winner and inaugural champion. The 3rd and 4th ranked fighters will fight each other to determine a #1 contender, who will fight for the title at the first post-tournament event. Tournament Rules: Conditions of entry: Fighters entering the tournament must have an ID of 315000 or later, be able to make weight at 135 lbs for each fight, be no taller than 150cm and be prepared to fight through all tournament rounds, win, lose, or draw. Fighters must be 18 years old or younger, have no more than 1 test fight, and be prepared to fight every three weeks until the conclusion of the tournament. Only one entrant per manager will be allowed. There will NOT be a specific creation date – create your fighter(s) as soon as ID 315000 hits. Testing: Managers may create more than one fighter and test them if they choose and enter the fighter which they like best. Only 1 test fight per fighter please. Tournament Structure: Based on the Swiss-system, fighters will receive points for each fight (See further down for scoring) and be matched each round with fighters of the same, or similar score but not fighting the same fighter twice. There will be 4 to 6 tournament rounds, depending on the number of entrants. 16 or fewer entrants = 4 tournament rounds, 17 – 32 entrants = 5 tournament rounds, 33 or more entrants = 6 tournament rounds. Location & Timing of Events: All fights will take place in Las Vegas on Wednesday nights, unless we have over 20 entrants, in which case some events would be in Los Angeles, in order to allow 2 events on the same day. The first round will be at least 3 weeks and not more than 4 weeks after ID 315000 hits. Subsequent rounds will be exactly 3 weeks apart. Contracts: Fighters will be offered contracts to cover all of the potential 6 tournament rounds, at 4000 Sign / 3000 Fight / 2000 win. Given each fighter will fight every three weeks, this contract will be plenty of financial support to cover all training needs, with a little extra for clothing and supplements. Fight Rules: KT (Muay Thai) rules apply to each bout, featuring 3 three minute rounds. In the final tournament round, the championship fight and the #1 contender fight will each be 5 three minute rounds. All fights will be held in a ring and feature 10 point must scoring. Match-ups: In the first round all match-ups will be made according to a hype+pop seeding system. For example, if there are 16 participants, in the first round 1 will face 16, 2 vs 15, 3 vs 14, 4 vs 13, 5 vs 12, 6 vs 11, 7 vs 10, and 8 vs 9. With the understanding that upon creation many fighters may have identical hype+pop, the seed will be set according to the ranking order which MMA Tycoon will show for the division here: http://www.mmatycoon.com/orgfighterlistpublic.php?oid=4588 All participants then proceed to the next round in which winners are pitted against winners, losers are pitted against losers, and so on. In subsequent rounds, each competitor faces an opponent with the same, or almost the same, cumulative point score. No player is paired up with the same opponent twice. During all but the first round, competitors are paired based on approximately how well (or poorly) they have performed so far. Scoring: Each fighter is awarded points on how they perform, this structure is detailed below. Win: 3 Points Lose: 1 Point Draw: 2 Points Bye: 2 Points Refused fight: Minus 2 Points (Opponent would receive a Bye) Byes: The tournament will endeavor to start with an equal amount of entrants. Byes will be awarded if your opponent refuses to fight, drops out or becomes inactive, or in the event that there are an odd number of participants. Updates: Scoring will be posted to all competitors after each tournament event. Final Round: For the final tournament round, the top 2 fighters at that time will face each other in 5 three minute rounds to determine the tournament winner and inaugural champion. The 3rd and 4th ranked fighters will face each other in 5 three minute rounds to determine a #1 contender, who will fight for the title at the first post-tournament event. This is the only stage of the tournament where you MAY face an opponent you have already fought once, the perfect place for redemption. In the event of ties on points in the top 4 upon booking the final round, ties will be broken by calculating cumulative opponent points. In the event there is still a tie, the tie will be broken by the MMA Tycoon hype+pop rankings as will be shown here: http://www.mmatycoon.com/orgfighterlistpublic.php?oid=4588 Prizes: - Tournament winner will receive, Championship belt/title, a custom trophy, $100k signing bonus from KOFC + $100k sponsored by Mentor Corleone + an additional $50k prize sponsored by Master Leader = $250k total - 2nd Place - $50k signing bonus from KOFC - 3rd Place - $25k signing bonus from KOFC - $50k for some sort of pointless bonus which he will decide later, sponsored by Master Leader - $25k for best midget avatar, sponsored by Blake Phoenix - $25k for Fastest KO, sponsored by Alexander Biro - $25k for best comeback win (down 2-0 rounds, win by KO), sponsored by Alexander Biro - $25k for Least Punches thrown over the course of the whole tournament, sponsored by Alexander Biro - $10k per headkick KO victory, sponsored by Jackson Wink - Additional prizes TBD, sponsored by generous donors Post Tournament: The division will continue. Fighters not in the tournament are welcome to join the division. KT events will continue to be 3 weeks apart. All tournament fighters will be offered new contracts at the end of the tournament based on their value to the org at that time. However, even for fighters who totally suck ass, their new contracts will not be less than the initial contract amount. *** If anyone is willing and able to donate Tycoon $ for tournament prizes, it would be greatly appreciated! *** *** 315k is here. Everyone can create their fighters now ** Fighter creation rules: ID: 315k+ Age: 18 years old Weight: must be able to make weight at 135 lbs Height: no taller than 150 cm KT Rules: don't waste points on ground game Keep in mind you can test your fighters once if you like, but if you aren't going to test, I can just go ahead and sign your fighters asap. Deadline for submitting fighters is end of day Saturday May 6th. I will make first round fight offers on Sunday May 7th. First round fights will take place on Wednesday May 17th. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ValentinasAss Posted April 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2017 I'm thinking it should be 18 year old builds only. Is everybody OK with that? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeF Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 Yep I'm in what weight though ? Would you participate in a 315k+ 135 lb KT division? Would you participate in a 315k+ 135 lb KT tournament? Prolly super heavyweight 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValentinasAss Posted April 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 There are 11 yes votes for the 135 lb KT division. I'm looking for 16 or more, but it looks like we should be able to move forward with this. I think 18 year olds would be a good idea so we can keep them around for as long as we want to and have them be top KT fighters. 25 year olds would be more hype and more skill points at first, but less long term potential. We could probably have both tournament and non-tournament fighters if enough people want to be in the division, but not the tournament. For the tournament, would you guys prefer swiss style/round robin, single elimination, or double elimination? whatever we do as far as the tournament, the tournament winner will get the division belt & the division will stay intact. If any rich managers would like to donate prizes for the tournament, it would be appreciated. Approximately 3 weeks from when 315k hits until 1st event, then exactly 3 weeks between events. If we don't have exactly 20 fighters (10 fights per card) additional fight slots on KT events will be filled by high hype MMA fighters in my org who are willing to fight KT on these events. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
