NO SHOW RULES

- If you do not show for your fight you must have a reason and have notified the admin you will be unable to compete within 24 hours of the fight. If notice is not provided it will result in dismissal from the league.

-no shows do not count as wins in the OFC as all wins should be earned. All efforts are made to provide you all with active fighters to fight against but from time to time you may miss a fight due to an inactive fighter.

CUTS FROM THE OFC

-It is possible to be cut from the OFC under the following conditions:

1. Inactivity
- this results in not being active on the forums and/or in game. Fighters who do not respond to fight contracts, no show to fights, inactive on the forums for 72 hours or longer (meaning not being online at all), failure to confirm a loss, or who are forced to be AWOL for longer then 30 days are subject to removal


2. Three Strike Rule
- This is non-negotiable, receive three strikes and you will receive your permanent walking papers from the league. Strikes will be received if you fail to show for a fight, fail to confirm a loss, forum inactivity, or if you have been removed from the league for any of the above.

3. Failure to Perform
- In order to be as realistic as possible as well as ensuring that the most talented players are gunning for the gold, you can be cut if you fail to perform in the league. A fighter is guaranteed only 1 fight in the OFC before being subject to dismissal. Being 0-1 is not a death sentence, if a fighter is being competitive and is active and is and putting on a good show chances are they will stay in the league. By dismissal this means you will be sent down to our development league (TOF), as long as you are an active member of this community you will always have a place to play one way or the other.

DISCONNECTS DURING THE FIGHT

The OFC has a strict policy on disconnecting the game in order to avoid a loss, while we can not say that all disconnects are malicious there is unfortunately a rampant amount of disconnects happening to avoid a loss so the following regulations are in place to protect the league and its honest fighters:

1. A disconnect that occurs while a fighter is stunned, being submitted, or GnP will be seen as malicious and the disconnecting party will receive an automatic loss for the fight. The league president will then decide whether a suspension will occur and/or up to dismissal from the league.

2. A disconnect that occurs during the match at any other time will be seen as a system or internet error and the fight will be re-started from the beginning. If this occurs three times within the match it will go down as a loss. The fighters can agree to fight again at another date if the disconnecting player feels his connection may continue to fail at that time.

3. If a fighter disconnects and does not return online it will be seen as a system or internet error. 48 hours will be given to make the fight up.


With anything if certain patterns become apparent that disconnects are happening on purpose the fighter will be removed from the league immediately and banned from future participation in the OFC.

CAN I USE MY CAF

the short answer to this question is NO.


The league will be UFC fighters only but the league does have some CAFs that have recently been released for use to boost the HW division, these will be the only kind of CAFs allowed as everything is regulated by the OFC to ensure that they do not have any advantages over the normal fighters in the game.

CHANGING FIGHTERS


You may switch fighters but under the current conditions:

-the fighter must be available
-your current contract must have been fulfilled or be of veteran status
-you must be in good standing with the league

If more then one person wants the same guy who happens to become available, a waiver list will determine who gets the person. The waiver list will be defaulted to the seniority list (longest tenure with the league), once you use the waiver your name then goes to the bottom of the list.

GOING TO BE AWOL?

If you are going to be unable to play for whatever reason please ensure that you send the admin a pm letting him know how long you plan on being gone. If no notice is given you do run the risk of losing your fighter due to inactivity.
