Warpig Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 The ability to receive contract offers from other orgs as well as the one you are currently at when you have only 1 remaining fight, a lot of sports work like this and it will help managers get the best possible deal for their fighters and create a bit more healthy competition for orgs. 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shards Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Sure but I think this'll be most effective if you give the fighters with 1 fight left a needs contract box to tick again, I know it's how I do all my fighter searching so it'll give guys with an org the option to stay or shop around. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Sounds like a very good idea, gives fighters and managers a chance to see what they can get elsewhere. I also like Shard's idea, that there should be another checkbox the fighter should tick if they want other orgs to know their contract is running out soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clydebankblitz Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Love this idea, but I'd also like to add another bit to it. Like a "right to match" idea. Basically, when the fighter gets the contract offer in, the org owner also gets a message with the contract offered so they have a fair chance of getting them. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenlow73 Posted September 18, 2015 Report Share Posted September 18, 2015 Would that be the same thing as making the exclusive box uncheckable. I know that wouldn't be limited to one fight left unless Mike made it that way. I wish the box was already like that and then guys wouldn't have to leave their current contracts for alliance battles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No becasue you would still only be able to fight for the org you are signed with during your last fight but you would be able to see what other offers will have waiting for you if you decide not to resign.

embalmer Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Do you mean rival orgs can bid on your guy when you still have 1 fight left? If so, will not that just make the wages skyrock and just widen the gap between top orgs and "the rest" I mean if you can bid on signed fighters you really want you will prolly put in huge offers making the fighter either demand equal pay from his current org or just leave. Maybe i misunderstood but i been at work for 14 hrs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe i misunderstood but i been at work for 14 hrs +1 In every sport I can think of(not golf or tennis as there are no contracts, you play to get into tournaments) you cant talk to other teams and such without the consent of your current team unless you have it as a clause in the contract which most don't. If player A is thinking about leaving Team A, he needs to get permission from the GM to talk to Team b,c and d which is usually granted when they want to dumb his salary or they have young talent to take his place or even a combo of both. Do you think Dana White is letting Conor Mcabandonedmybelt talk to other orgs? Does the redneck driving the budlight car get to go and talk deals with the owner of the vagisil car?

GBK16 Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 Not sure for other sports like Rugby or the American sports, but in Football (English version) teams in England are permitted to approach players from abroad who have 6 months or less on their current contract. I agree with Embalmer though, this is something that majorly benefits the bigger orgs who can afford to pay more than it does the smaller orgs and it will widen the gap. It's a good idea in theory, but the practicality of it is something that will harm orgs hoping to grow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, this will hurt the game in the long run, if you look in Sydney MMA is basically dead , because the org wages were miserable and the Gym fees too high, it ended like a domino and everything closed in a short notice.

MasterLeader Posted July 14, 2016 Report Share Posted July 14, 2016 This would hurt the smaller orgs though... As a former org owner I didn't have much money and would often offer poor contracts, almost exploiting managers because they are unaware of how much more they could receive from a rich org. This helped me grow my org and make mediocre profits. However, if rich orgs were offering them new contracts it would cause me to either lose my top fighters or get ripped off and make losses or TINY profits in the long run. Thus keeping me as a shitty org and making the strong orgs stronger. In conclusion, this introduction KILLS competition and results in more of a monopoly amongst the bigger orgs.
