SUPREMACY JANUARY RESET
Hi, everyone. I wanted to take the time to cover some upcoming changes
to the gym supremacy rankings and some new features we will be rolling
out next year.
THE RESET
We will be resetting the GYM supremacy rankings on January 1st. All
existing gyms will be reset to 40 points. An additional +5 will be
granted for every champion training at the gym at the start of the new
season. Also, gyms who win the GUF finale will be rewarded 10+ to
their rankings at the start of the new season. Finally, the winning
GYM of the current season of GYM supremacy will walk away with the
following rewards...
REWARDS
+ The winning gym will start the new season off with a 15+ bonus to their GP stat.
+ All members from the top gym will earn a +1 in all skill based stat categories. (Max. 100)
+ All members from the second place gym will earn a +1 stat increase in all skill based categories rated from secondary and below.
+ All members from the third place gym will earn a +1 stat increase on their lowest skill based stat categories.
+ All members of the winning gym will receive a one time voucher for an automatic five star report.
+ All members from the Winning gym will earn an additional 15+ popularity boost in game.
+ All fighters part of the winning gym will be paid an additional 50k bonus per fight and 100k bonus per fight for any fighters who have an National Popularity ranking or higher.
NEW FEATURES
FREE AGENTS: In the new year, we will be introducing a free agency gym recruitment tool that will make it easier for gyms wanting to recruit members who are not active on social media (twitter). This is a great way to get more members involved who are playing our game outside the traditional efedding community.
GYM FIGHTERS: Gym fighters expand on the free agent system by allowing gyms with multiple members to create additional fighters called gym fighters. Gym fighters are owned by the players within the gym and ANY members can submit camp reports on that fighters behalf, as well as attend press conferences and sell fights allowing a more collaborative effort between camp mates.
Gym expansions: In the new year, gyms can now have up to four members per weight class allowing up to 20 members per gym across the five weight classes. The gym fighter feature above may allow additional membership slots.
Competitive point system: In the new season, we are changing how GP points are earned. This makes winning and losing fights a bigger driver in the top gym rankings. The new scale will be as follows:
Win + 2 GP /Win against a 4 star (or higher) report = +3 GP
Loss - 3 / Loss with a 5 star report = -2 GP.
No show = -4 GP
New handler recruitment + 3 GP
Champion +5 (for as long as champion retains)
In order not to punish gyms hiring new members, they are not deducted any points on a NO show for the fighters first fight with the gym as long as the gym owner removes the member after their no show. Also, communication goes a long way. If you can't show up for a fight and you notify me before hand, the no show penalty may be waived. As for swapping gyms, no points will be lost for changing gyms instead the change of the gym will need to be approved by the GCC to ensure it is being done in the spirit of the game.
The Global Training Facility now carries a max cap of 30 GP. New gyms min. cap is now set at 40 GP making it that much more important that fighters who want to have the most success in the GCC join a gym!
Removal of caps: In the upcoming season there are no caps on multiple gyms potentially reaching 100 GP at the same time.
I hope you enjoy these changes coming in the new Year! Thank you to everyone for your continued support!
