B-town Boxing: A Heavyweight Universe

[btown32]

Golden Gate Promotions is on the clock.

[btown32]

Each promotional/management group will be given 25 points to use to select their 3 boxers during the initial draft. Each point is the equal value of a boxer's ranking. For example: George Foreman is a "12" rated fighter, so a promotional/management team would have to use 12 out of its 25 allocated points to select him, leaving only 13 points available to draft the next two boxers.

Just thought of this idea while going through my database - each promoter/managerial team may choose the fighter file of the particular boxer that they want to draft and manage. For example: Matt Skelton has files ranging from '"6-9" in ratings. You can choose how many points you want to use on him. This allows for some flexability while drafting. Maybe you want to draft Vitali Klitschko, but you do not want to spend the 12 points on him because it would severely hamper your ability to draft any other highly ranked boxers. Maybe you feel like taking a chance and believe that a "10" rated Vitali could get into the rankings as well as the "12" and have a chance to win a world title. This will allow each stable to make more decisions and will allow some flexability in drafting fighters.

All unused points remaining from the draft are "bankable" and can be used to acquire more fighters in the future. All stables MUST draft three fighters in the initial draft and cannot save points by only drafting two fighters. Stables will acquire points by meeting universe requirements that will be posted on the Universe Information page in the future as they are drafted. Examples would be points for winning Regional/World Titles, wins versus Top 10 opponents, Title Defenses, etc.

I do not have a Ray Mercer file at '8'. The db only has a Mercer rated at '9'. Could anybody tell me where to find the rated 8 file or post it here in the thread. gocubsgo, do you have a rated 8 file?

Thanks

Nevermind, I just went into my 2.0 database, and found the '8' rating.

Golden Gate Promotions takes Sailor Tom Sharkey rated as a 10 in the 2.5 database.

Holyhugging Inc. is on the clock. Almost left off the 'L' in clock, I guess that would not of been good.

Romy, only have a '10' and '12' for Schmeling. I know there is an '11' listed in the fighterlist db, but when you plug in the numbers and save, it converts to a '12'.

Give me Holmes, I believe the most recent one is a 13, that works for me. If you have something different, just use that.

Hm, the Max I have in the default database is pretty much the same accept that his KD2 and Recovery ratings are flipped from what you have. I have a KD2 at 2 and Recovery at 1 which keeps him rated at 11 when you hit calculate and save. If you want I'll just take the 12 and draft a 2 instead you big deal to me either way.

Third round beginning with Buckeye State Promotions on the clock. These should be some really interesting picks!

Okay, swapped out the two stats like you said in your post and it did save as an '11'. So, will go with that file. Thanks Rom.

Can any of you guys tell me how I can create a list of all the fighters in my database or a universe to print out? Is there a function in the game that allows me to do this?

Sticking with Joe even after the last uni (remember that tough decision versus David Haye?). Love the loyalty though. Don't like Sir Henry, huh? you do know that there is a re-rating of him at an '8?'

[btown32]

Alright, going to sleep now, will be back on the boards later this evening.

Boston,
I have Courage rated as a (1) in my db. Do you have him as a 1 or 2 in yours?

My plan was to bank one point.

I have a pair of 1's for Courage. One of them has a HP of 9

The one I have in my db and wanted to draft was the one with the HP of 9 from the TBCB3 DB Team rated as a 1.

Don, could you post your other (1 rated) file you have of him here?
