NY Fight Nights used to be one of the best ID-orgs at the time and its succes was mainly based on a few stable pillars:

1) loyal managers

2) hype team (posters, write-ups, blog,...)

3) passion for the game

Running a full time org is not an option for me anymore, due to a lack of time and also commitment to be honest.

However, I have always said that I would come up with a fun special tournament from time to time when I could.

The NYFN legends creation tournament was a great succes and provided a fun experience for all managers involved and even for those on the sidelines.

The rules for signups/invitations and the tournament have been determined, but will be announced later this week.

For now, I am just happy to tease you with the name of the tournament.
The announcement poster is a custom design by Mr. Roger Kint and as always a true piece of art.
We have made package deal for the tournament, so any further designs will all be by the hand of the master!

Without any further ado, I am proud to hereby show off the tournament announcement as a teaser.....

Yeah right. Good luck with your little elitist non inclusive gathering of "so called" top managers. I'm sure it'll be just what the game needs /sarcasm. I didn't want to join in anyway.

 

Unless the entry rules are somehow open so as I could join in which case disregard everything I said and of course I would absolutely LOVE a spot in your tournament old bean.

PARTICIPANTS/TEAMS

(SIGNUPS ARE NOT OPEN YET!)

The rules and exact setup of rounds will be explained on Sunday and after that post, signing up will be allowed.

So for now, read the underneath to have a basic idea already and see who you can free up and who you could team up with ;)

There will be 8 teams of two fighters.

Each time will have one 'Goliath' and one 'David'.
The team can be formed by two managers or just one manager who has both a 'Goliath' and a 'David'.

Requirements for the fighters:

- All fighters should be minimum top 250 p4p when signing up.

- David's should be:

1) natural weight (without weight cut) not higher than 145lbs.

2) not taller than 170cm.

- Goliath's should be:

1) natural weight (without weight cut) not lower than 230lbs.

2) not shorter than 190cm.

It's no secret I dislike you very much but this game needs all the events it can get. You should/should have revised the critea to fit a much larger pool of fighters.

Don't think it's a great idea to feature a tournament that will highlight one of the biggest engine flaws in the game when lighter wc take on heavier wc.

 

It'd be like David vs Goliath if David was on EPO and Goliath was in a gimp suit.

Davids would have fought Davids and Goliaths would also only have fought their own `sort`, as can be read in the rules.

Top 1000 pfp honestly may be the more reasonable route to go. It is hard enough to get a creation tournament.

 

Great idea though i would be interested if it is 1000 pfp,

Anyone who is interested can copy the format and run it with a lower p4p limit. I personally do not care though about running such an open tournament, as it would then lose its attraction to me.

 

But I am just a sentimental old fart.
