U know, this gave me an idea for an extended gauntlet concept. The gauntlet is designed to test the endurance of one girl who wants to fast track her rise to fame; but what about a round-robin style gauntlet where u have several girls spread over several fights simultaneously, with the girls changing opponents every round. Anyone who makes it to round 12 on their feet gets a sizeable purse, while the winner gets a really sizeable purse

There is a technical problem with that: if there are odd number of girls left in the fight, then each round there will be someone who has no opponent to fight with. Besides, there is too much of a dumb luck element with this swapping mechanism, a weak fighter may take advantage of finishing off a strong opponent who fought hard in the previous rounds. And there’s the obvious tendency of playing passive for fighters to save themselves for later. I think the gist of a gauntlet is still about the sheer challenge of one fighter against many opponents.

That's fair~ especially the concern that some girls might play smart about this and fight passively. On the other hand though, the benefit of a multi-girl gauntlet is that both fighters are highly invested in the fight. If you just have one girl running the gauntlet, her opponent may not be as incentivised to give it her all. I suppose the issue of the girls fighting passively could be resolved by making sure that the girls don't know each other beforehand, so that even if one girl wants to shirk, her opponent may not be so cooperative. We could also incentivise the girls to fight extra hard by making it so that if one girl knocks her opponent out, she gets the whole next round to rest and recover. And then as far as a strong opponent getting knocked out early, I'd say that's just gonna be accepted risk. The Gauntlet is not exactly a fair set up anyway and fighters who participate in the Gauntlet would be newfaces desperate to make a name for themselves, so it's probably just an accepted fact that it may not entirely come down to endurance or skill
