New org owner (issues + my MMA story)

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone.

I'm Adrian, a 21 year old martial arts enthusiast living in the Pacific North West.

 

How I got introduced to MMA Tycoon:

 

I started following martial arts closely back in 2014, and very quickly it became my favorite sport. I rarely evey miss major fight events. I started grappling and combat sports training in real life and decided that I would like to pursue MMA as my career path with the hope of facing and beating my idol, the great Georges St-Pierre one day!

Unfortunately after two years of daily hard work I was forced to leave my gym and move to a different state and here in PNW I couldn't find a good wrestling club that matched what I wanted, and overtime I stopped thinking about training and got into regular life stop such as family and friends, relationships, work, school etc.

I've loved EA Sports UFC 2 & 3 games but they always lacked one feature that I wanted the most.. The Universe Mode. A game mode where I get to play as the UFC president and have my own cool and organic rankings, storylines, rivalries, fantasy match-ups, super fights etc.

All I could do and have was hopes and dreams until I ran across this website called MMA Tycoon.

Not going to lie I've been here before, I tried it back in 2017-18 I'd say but I didn't find the user interface appealing enough, and I simply didn't want to wait weeks/months/years for my fighters to become world class and fight for major world titles.

 

GAME RELATED STUFF:

 

So about 2 months ago I finally decided to give this game a shot, and after understanding the mechanics and evolution aspect of the fighters, and realizing that I could finally have my dream virtual match-maker job, I couldn't help it not to go VIP and as soon as I did, I started this new VERY COOL +355K fight organization called "Core Combat" (5763)! (with a few 354500k exceptions)

At first I did not know that we could only work on a single company and started planning on my monopoly Core Combat brand and designed multiple cool looking T-shirts and fight gear. Then researched a bit about gym managements and thinking I could start my second company on the 7th day after the first creating the first one, I was shocked/disappointed to realize I could only have Core Combat, the fight org. But it was alright, after all that was the main reason I joined this game.

I wanted take my sweet time and hire new talents, and start having my events whenever the heck I was ready!

One thing I hadn't considered/knew back then was that these managers that were signing their fighters with me wanted to get a fight ASAP and some fighters inactivity was getting close to 20 something days and I didn't know how that could negatively effect my org.

I was slowly booking and filling new events until I was confronted by one of the most absurd and bi-polar people I've chatted with on this website. (interestingly enough this was one of the very few managers that I've spoken with and he assured me that I can run my divisions however I wanted them and I can take my time and he doesn't mind waiting)

So I thought he was one of the chillest managers in my org based on our previous conversations until 2 days ago I received this message:

 

"hey man, I have 3 fighters in your org that have been waiting for a fight offer for 11+ days. whats going on? there are fighters available in the divisions
last time we spoke, you said winners from the first event would fight each other and I could get a crack at the losers. but none of those guys have any fight offers. what is going on here? ive been patiently waiting and blindly gave you a 10 rating on all my fighters, but im quickly seeing how that was a mistake"

(the conversation with him carried on for a bit)

 

BOOM!!! A Great Awakening superman punch in the mouth!!

I had no idea there was anyone mad at me in this game let alone in my brand new VERY COOL org!

I replied to him and tried to explain why I haven't offered him fights and promised I'd fix things up by the next day.

And I did try to. I booked a new event (with a VERY COOL poster) and offered most of the guys who had high inactivity fights, including this guys'. Unfortunately one of the fights was declined and the other is still under offer. Not until today was I at all worried until I received this message:

 

"good morning, please release my fighters (initials) M.G. , M.A. , and K.C. . I will send you back their signing bonuses, thank you"

(the conversation carried on for a bit)

 

BOOM!!! Flying arm-bar sub attempt!!

Why??? What's the deal? I TRIED :angry: !!!!!!!!!!

Then I realized he left a 1/10 rating with all of his 3 fighters leaving the org with a 25% review. He proceeded to explain that he's spoken with other managers in the org and in my view, started a sabotage campaign!

 

Now I don't believe holding fighters hostage is the right thing to do but I did try to get him a fair fight again today (also going against my own rule of fighters being required to win at least once to receive a title shot, and gave this guy a shot against someone else who won his debut in my first event) and he declined my offer. I guess what I'm really salty about is the fact that he's damaged the company's reputation and even though I tried to fix my mistakes, it doesn't seem as he's going to remove his negative rating regardless of my efforts! ( I did try and spent around 3 hours combined work trying to improve the org in the past day, even though most of it I realize now was pointless due to my inexperience.)

 

I realize I haven't done the best job but at least I'm trying to fix it. Is it fair for his fighters to remain in the org's possession until/unless he agrees to remove his rating?

 

I'd say right now about 90% of the active fighters have a fight booked in the next month. So if you're on of those managers in the 10% category please relax! take a deep breathe mate! It's going to be A-OK! I'll try to make things right! If you don't have a fight right now it's probably because either you just joined, or I haven't found an equally skilled opponent for you to face. (which is why I started to recruit a lot of new guys again)

 

Hope new org owners can learn a couple things from this and regardless of what happens, this will be a valuable lesson for all of us!!

Fix your ratings by sending a mass email and asking managers to rate you, if you are active and VERY COOL then imo your ratings will go up.

 

Then you chop this liberal flake for maximum effect. Insta - Win.

There are massive douche bags in this game that don't realise the effort that goes into running an organisation. You're putting your free time into this game to make it better and more fun for everyone. I say kick the fucktards out ASAP, it's not worth trying to keep them happy.

 

Also can u send a contract offer to my fighter Connor Butcher 355227 155lbs cheers bro

So I'm with these guys man as a guy who started up an org back june, it's a rough time doing a organization especially with douche canoes who try to ruin the experience. Keep doing you man, keep grinding and do not be afraid to ask guys for help. John Daugherty and Action Jackson have been awesome dudes to learn from and get answers from. Delete the dick, send a mass message about the situation, and continue your grind bro

If you love the org managerial experience, I'd get the game "World of mixed martial arts 5"

 

Offers similar content to this game except its a more single player based game, and you are solely a manager of an org, making fights, dealing with fighter egoes, trying to snipe the biggest stars from other companies etc. the fight engine for it is probably the best of any MMA sim game out there as well, millions of styles and influences and engagements to take into account. I'd pick it up.
