Well, looking through my inbox and outbox...I'm pretty sure that Ace (as it's his turn to play results man) has everything that was sent so...I can't speak for him personally, but I would imagine that the results will be up within the next 24 hours or so. I apologize for them taking a little longer than normal, it's just that a lot of people here in the fed (not just Ace and myself) seemed to have sh*t going on so everything was a little slower this week. No one's to blame, sh*t just happens every now and then. But for what its worth, reading through what everyone's sent...these should be some pretty badass results.

I'm starting to code now. I hope to have them up tonight. There are a lot of segments, but thankfully a couple of them are coded already. It's just a matter of putting them in order now.

I've found using a meme generator is more effective than looking for very specific memes.
But you'd better watch using memes with uncensored curse words. I got a 25% warning bar from it. The admins take this site being "PG" way too borking seriously

Was thinking about this just the other day. I don't have a clue what half of the people on here's entrance music is as you only ever see "'insert name here' hits the arena p.a."
So I was wondering could everyone post their character's entrance theme here as a youtube video and give a little explanation as to why they chose it? Thought it would be nice to actually listen to the tracks without searching through all of the bios, also was hoping it might spark up some conversation.

mine is じぶんROCK by ONE OK ROCK...I freakin love that band. Almost as much as SPYAIR.
I chose it for the awesome opening bit.

My newest theme. Hopefully this one will stick for a bit. I chose it because I never truly liked the Danzig theme, and KMFDM is awesome. I've had like 4 themes since I've returned I think..

"Whiskey Will" by Darkbuster. Great (defunct) Boston punk band, which ties into the roots of David's character, with lyrics that pretty much describe the path I've been using for him lately:
It's been a long time, it's been a long time, It's been a long time since I've been home.
I've been drinkin' I've been drunk I lost my shirt on a game of stud.
If she don't kill me, the whiskey will
I order two shots I hit the jukebox for Merle Haggard's "The Bottle Let Me Down"
Jack in a bottle Jack in a cup Jack on the rocks or Jack straight up
No more tobacco My time to run I stumble home for a bottle of some
...and so on.

When I was trying to think of a theme for Ripp, I was running through a bunch of different Gaelic/Nordic metal bands, and ultimately this was the song that I decided on, as I figured since I was gonna have Ripp be a full blown Irishman (if you've read my RPs, you'll also see that some of the lines are in Gaelic) so why not have a Gaelic Metal song as the theme.
"Blooded to the battle Born to the fight Sowed in the soul Thrill of the fight Taking no prisoners To die for a cause Honour and glory To win without loss
Prowess and power Stealth and speed Practice of combat Take pain without heed Boundless endurance Man without peer Natural instincts Stay alive through it all The world was young The laws were true To kill or be killed These men were proud And true to their word Not modern day cowards Who kill in cold blood"
Those are the lyrics to Born to the Fight by Waylander. I personally think that it fits the Ripp Jackson character perfectly. Plus, it has an incredibly badass panflute. That can't be beat. Haha.

WARNING: This story is (maybe) more than necessary, but who gives a damn? Not me.
My initial theme for WFWF was "No More Words" by EndeverafteR, which was my latest theme at the time for when I was RP'ing back in mid 2008 at another place. When that place was replaced I used a random Kazarian theme until that place went belly-up in a split second. Anyway, I remembered that I had made some crappy slideshows for a couple of the guys back at the first place, then someone else decided to make a custom-ish titantron and I got one of the only three he made.
Funny that it's still up. I chose this way back when because I was a heel at that point and to this day, No More Words connects more heelish than a face for me.
Never walk away from a fight that's worth fighting Never hesitate when you know you're gonna act Never waste your words on a fool you won't listen Never sell your soul cause you'll never buy it... back
That pretty much described my entire heel work. He lost himself by selling out to attempt to get higher on the card, not to mention there's this one guy that I never was able to beat and I had Mak go almost legit insane to try to beat him and simply couldn't and it turned out the guy who wrote for him was one of the owners under a different name. Maybe it was a way to make me better, I don't know.
ANYWAY, as if this couldn't longer than necessary, I decided to get rid of No More Words, simply because I wanted something new and Follow by Breaking Benjamin was that.
I like the song. Point blank. How does it connect to Mak? Does it even connect to Mak? I don't know. Inner battle with himself? Realizing he's done with being someone else's machine of sorts? Prior to now, Mak's always been written with this "capable henchman"-type feeling, but that's mostly my fault considering I brought in Travis as a tag partner way back when almost immediately after myself and another RP-er stopped teaming. So yeah.

Way more words than necessary, Mak.

So I just found out I am a moron. Took me a while, but finally got there.
I just was informed by Shawn that there are not four shows between PPVs, but five. Therefore, my schedule post was messed up this whole time, and I had to add a couple of shows. This really affects the few people who have been trying to get on the same page as me in terms of schedule. I really apologize, this is my fault. I hope it doesn't mess anything up for anyone. Kyzer and Raider specifically I apologize to for giving incorrect information.
If you guys want to PM me about plans, I would like to talk to you. That goes for anyone.

Yeah, this wasn't even miscommunication. I never thought anything of it because I've been doing this for years, and since this is Ace's first FULL show block as owner, I wouldn't have expected him to know in hindsight. He, before coming owner, would only just have to show when booked and all that, so I can't blame him at all. The last show block only had four because of ownership transitions and the block before was different because it had a Super Show in there. But traditionally the shows used to be 5, so we gotta get back to that.

All my plans are out of sync at the moment with the extra show.

Love Bramble Blast (I don't know it's actually name though), I'm a sucker for instrumental Wrestling themes, and it was the first thing that popped into my mind.

I just messaged you Ace. Once Ace gets back to me, I'll message you Kyzer and try to figure out what's up. Potentially we could do what we were talking about now, it would just have to be modified a bit because of the extra show.
Story/ RP-wise it does throw me for a loop, but I can make it work.
