It's that time again.
This season I'm revamping the rules with a few different rule changes.  For anyone interested just reply to this thread saying "I'm in" and please include your Twitter handle. If you don't have a Twitter consider making one since I will have a group chat there. Sign-ups are closed December 28th at 6:00 PM Est. Then I will randomize the draft order. The draft will start December 29th at 12:00 PM EST.

Draft Rules
  • The draft will be snake-style
  • Each competitor will draft six prospects. The last pick for each player has to draft a prospect with three pro fights or less.
  • You will have a five-hour deadline to draft. If you miss that you have to wait for your next go around and pick two fighters. You would only have an hour to make your pick on the second try. If you miss the deadline twice in a row you will be eliminated.
  • For rounds 4-6 you will have a three-hour deadline to make your pick
  • No former or current UFC fighters.
  • No current Bellator fighters.
  • No fighters in the Road to UFC finals.
  • You can draft an amateur as your last pick 
  • You can't draft anyone over the age of 32
  • You cant draft anyone with more than 25 pro fights
  • You can't draft anyone with three pro fights or less until the last round


Gameplay Rules
  • Highest score at the end of the year wins
  • On the 1st of each month, you will be able to drop a fighter and add any free agent. First dibs will go to whoever is last in the leaderboard and last will go to who's leading. Each player will have five hours to make their decision and if you don't reach the deadline you will be passed over and have to keep what you got. For any tied scores it will be randomized to know the full order. 
  • Once your prospect signs with the UFC/Bellator you will make a replacement. 
  • No drafting/replacing a prospect rumored to sign with the UFC/Bellator by a credible source
  • I will allow trades but both competitors must confirm with me before it's official
  • Once you are issued a replacement  (UFC/Bellator signing) you have a week from the fight to make your replacement to avoid stalling. If you fail you won't have a replacement.
  • You will receive the full 25 points if your prospect gets signed to the UFC/Bellator during the draft.

Scoring 
  • Prospect wins a fight= 10pts
  • Prospect loses a fight -10pts
  • Beat another competitor's prospect= 20pts
  • Lose to another competitor's prospect= -20pts
  • Wins/defends regional title= 15pts
  • Wins the ultimate fighter= 30pts
  • Wins PFL tournament= 50pts
  • Signs with Bellator= 15pts
  • Sign with the UFC= 25pts
