OK gentlemen, kind of a slow voting week because

Mayol/Nino and Miyazaki/Takizawa both ended in draws and Garay/Henry was cancelled.

This is a vote relating to a change in polls for manager votes. Me and Killer discussed this last week as a way to improve the manager vote system.

The proposed new system would work by the manager vote working as a typical vote does i.e. an option can be put up for a fighter to remain or drop 1-3 places. We would forego a 'drop to the pool' option unless the majority were in favour of that.

However, there would also be stipulations. Once a manager puts that vote up, he can not then propose a manager vote in that division for the next 2 months. Additionally, he can not propose a vote for the purpose of that same issue for the next 4 months. This is so people can't consistently try to demote someone.

I'd also recommend that you guys try to make use of your manager votes as it is.

I like the idea but I think timeframes are going to be difficult to deal with. I think if someone has an issue they should just bring it up. The voting can decide...

No he's fought at the weight in the last year. I don't think he was struggling with the weight, he looks a little fleshier at 135. I think if he were to lose to Peterson, he will drop back down.

Managers,

Okay, I'm going to try to set a goal of keeping at least 5 fighters in each pool, this is going to be tricky especially at the low-end weight classes. So when I am doing my weekly pool cleaning, I will be trying to also find fights in that weight class that may qualify for pool entry. If you guys could help me keep an eye on this that would be great.

Best Regards,

Greg

Hey guys if you've got no objection, I'm going to take over managing the Super-Bantamweight division. It's one that is going to need a lot of work & I also feel that it's not an attractive one for newcomers to take over.

We still have some divisons vacant so I'd encourage anyone interested in it to come forward & take over another one.

Vacant divisions

Cruiserweight
Light-Heavyweight
Super-Bantamweight

also I'm gonna PM Scott 22 & CFH because neither have voted for quite some time in which case Super-Middleweight & Featherweight will also become vacant.

I'll put you on Super Bantam and update it tonight. That's going to be a messy division with so many of those guys likely to move up to feather.

I've talked to CFH & he's said that he didn't have time for awhile due to school & being a MOD, but that if we can't get anyone to take the division, he'll be able to vote again in a few weeks.

Scott hasn't got back to me yet, I say we give him a few more days & then open it up, he hasn't voted in quite some time.

I'm going to PM Nameless & see if he's interested in taking over one of the divisions, as I've seen him vote before.

Any other suggestions for possible managers from the main board?

I could put up a post on the main board, if you're not opposed to it.

Yeah, that's good with me. Although you may want to include Pacquiao/Mayweather in the title just so people click on it ;)

Tomorrow (3/18/10) marks the one year anniversary of our ranking system.

Ok it looks like we have someone that has interest in becoming a manager.
markb018, I'll vouch for him, he's a very level headed poster.

If you vouch for him than that's good enough for me. But seriously. This the first time I've heard about him.

Alright looks like there aren't enough votes left to turn him down, so I will give him the choice of Cruiserweight or Light Heavyweight

This is a parking spot for old 'this weeks votes' threads and other threads that cover the entire ranking system as opposed to a specific weight class.

Ok gentlemen, looks like the rankings are moving along pretty well. I was thinking that for the potential pool entries I could open it up to the committee a week before and ask for nominations (if there are less than 5 pool members)
For example this week I would ask for Light middleweight pool entry nominations each manager would get to do 1 nomination per week, 2 if it's your weightclass this is optional to put forth a nominee, not a requirement. The following week we would vote on those nominees. If you guys like this idea, I will do it that way otherwise I will continue doing it the way I am doing it now.

Currently it's all voted on by the committee, we could amend the rules so that a victory by a pool member would automatically count as pool verification.

Just pooched my vote...please change to a yes.Seems if hes in the pool already its just a formality.?

Greg, I love the way your running things now. Sorry I haven't been able to contribute as much lately. I'm happy to put forward nominations for my divisions when the occassions arise but I'm not sure how many others would...

One other thing, I just read your other thread about a pool member being victorious counting as verification & I'm all for that. The thing I'd like to add would be if an unranked defeats a pool member or a ranked fighter in another weight-class I feel it should automatically qualify them for the pool... what are your thoughts on this?

I agree with that, but I think we should vote to see if the defeated remains in the pool. to be honest with my trip coming up, I'm gonna be a little limited on time myself. Just so everyone knows I will probably be unavailable for two weeks from 4/25/10 to 5/8/10

Does a victory by a pool member in the correct weight class count as automatic verification?

Yes (5 votes) : JazMerkin, Killersheep, markb018, Spicoli, TigerFan
No (0 votes) : N/A

Pool member victory counts as automatic verification.
