DRAFTING

For the first draft, each player picks two fighters to be part of their roster.  Draft order is randomly selected and then reversed for the second round.  The player who was unlucky enough to pick last would get first pick the 2nd time through, the guy who picked 7th would get to pick 2nd, etc. Of course, you can only pick a fighter that hasn't already been drafted.

To determine the drafting order for subsequent events, each player calculates their best performing fighter in the previous event.  The players who's best performing fighter won get the first picks, determined first by fastest finish, then by highest decision score (the average of the judge's score for the winning fighter divided by the average of the judge's score for the losing fighter). Ties are broken by FightMetric's assessment of performance.

For the players who's best performing fighter still lost, their draft picks are sorted out by the above criteria, but reversed: The loser who won the closest decision, followed by who survived the longest.

Each subsequent draft pick after the original draft only goes around once, so each player is only get to draft one fighter for the next event. Later in the game, if there isn't at least 8 fighters available to be drafted, then the lowest players on the draft position get left out...for example, if there's only 6 available fighters on the next card, the players who came in 7th and 8th don't get to draft anybody.

SCORING

The scoring system is simple: For each fighter in your stable that wins a fight, you receive 1 point.  For each fighter in your stable that draws, you receive 0.5 points.  A loss is worth no points.

LOSING FIGHTERS

To keep things fresh, if a player’s fighter loses they leave their stable. So, say you had Gray Maynard on your team and he loses at UFC 136, he becomes a free agent again. However, he couldn't be drafted by someone else until he's fighting on an event that's being drafted for. So, say he fights again at UFC 143, he couldn't be picked until the draft order was set after UFC 142...he couldn't be drafted by someone immediately after he becomes a free agent after UFC 136.

CONFLICT OF INTERESTS

If two of your fighters end up matching up with one another, you have two options: You can either trade one of your fighters to someone else, or you can keep both your fighters but opt to take no points on the fight. If you opt to take no points, your best performing fighter is still determined as usual (say I had both GSP and Condit, and I decided I wanted to keep them both and get no points. If GSP knocks Condit out in 20 seconds, I'm probably still going to get first pick on the next event, I just don't get the 1 point to my overall score).  In this case, the losing fighter does not leave your stable, as you’ve effectively sat this fight out.

TRADING

A player can trade fighters at any time, with one exception: A fighter cannot be traded after midnight of the day he's fighting. Once fight day is officially here, your roster is locked.

REPLACEMENTS

If a fighter is pulled from a card thanks to an injury or missed weight, you can choose to trade that fighter for another free agent on the card. If you want to keep the offending fighter or there are no free agents and you have no other fighters on your team performing on the card, you just sit that one out. You can't gain any points, and your draft pick comes between the players who's best performing fighter won, and the players who's best performing fighter lost.
