How do you organise your fighting? (in General)

Jon's change to fighting makes me wonder how people organise their fighting. I have a specific fightlist and I edit quite often but as my best challenge bonuses are at the top it suits me to have it work the way it is working. Going back to the top when opponents are no longer comatose works just fine.

Using Verifex's script gives me the option to fight people from 'recent battles' list and on the add clan opponents page too, so I very rarely have to go to the standard list. And if I do I'm looking to work my way upwards of my score rather than down to get the best challenge bonuses.

How do you it? Do you store possible opponents on your fightlist who you can't quite beat yet and try them every so often? How do you select new targets?

Every morning I edit my favorites list with clan targets that will yield my character maximum rewards with 100% (or close to 100%) wins.

Then that is what I fight with for the rest of the day unless a target...

(1) ... starts yielding rewards that are too low.
(2) ... leaves their clan.
(3) ... starts winning too many battles.

JW: I store possible opponents that I can and can not beat. Challenge bonuses at the top of the list may be the best, however, the rewards are not always. I like to go through my entire list, which is the reason why I even have a list.

I use my normal fightlist until people start dropping from 100% ChBonus at the bottom, at which point I go to Standard and start hunting for new targets - which is a pain with the new change, but meh.

I forgot one way I organise. I wait for OB to add new people to his fightlist and I try them out for myself. Has worked pretty well so far.....;)

I look at JW's fightlist and try those people out :)

I add people with decent challenge bonus that I can beat, and a few high yield opponents at the top that I can sometimes beat. I often keep extra high score opponents on my list to see if I can eventually adjust into consistently beating, further increasing rewards. Often I need to skip a few of these at the top if they start to gain an advantage (NCBs are notorious for getting so out of control I drop them altogether). The new change makes it harder to skip those I may not want to fight at the time.

I also keep people with lower bonuses since scores tend to fluctuate around the 2 mill area. someone giving me 9% today may give me 20+% tomorrow. At any given time I only fight at most the top 1/2 of my fight list to maximize rewards. The new change makes this difficult, as clicking on a comatose opponent drags me down to someone I'd rather not waste a BA on.

I aggressively farm anyone on my list with a bonus 5% or higher than the "average" for the day, especially if I catch them fighting. The new change utterly ruins this for me, as it keeps dragging me down away from that opponent.
