I've edited the previous post to reflect the changes I've made to the Aging stages. Post-Prime and End career stages seem to have a more dramatic negative effect than I thought.

Anyway, after a new start, the CBA is humming along. I've found out that having nothing but 160 HW TCs was bad for those weight classes outside the HW division, since the ranking system for organizations is based on the weight the fight was sanctioned for.

For example, an HW TC versus a JLW fighter would be considered a HW fight for the JLW fighter with adjustment for weight turned off. For those who keep track of their rankings out of the game, this poses no problem, but for someone like me who is using the in-game ranking system, that JLW fighter would not be ranked until they had 10 JLW fights, regardless of the number of fights against HW TCs they faced.

So I've been generating TCs for each weight class, using the existing templates as a base to work from. To avoid confusion, the copies are given names and now they age and retire as normal fighters do, however they do not make comebacks. Also they are still set in the "retired" as opposed to "active" so as to not be ranked by any organization.

I've also changed the weeks a fighter is out to months. It's easier to keep track of, and simming is much faster. I'd like to sim one month of game time for each week of real-time, but as the universe grows in number of fighters, and as real-life issues take priority, I'm sure the pace will slow down.

Anyway, following is the current Top Ten for each weightclass based solely on perf points, since not many fighters qualify to rank in each organization.
