He's not that far off the mark. Other than an unconfirmed handful, most of the prominent female characters we've had come through have been written by dudes (and let's be real, 98% of those were written by Mike). I generally never looked sideways at it. Some guys are better at writing females than others. Some are creepy. Mike is vulgar, but that's totally by design. In redoing the superlatives, it might be worth noting that Mike has successfully depicted just about every character he's written here f*cking or getting f*cked. Whoever has written a female character over the years successfully, bravo. I've been trying for days to nail down a teenage girl character for my creative writing class, but it's hard as hell. |

I test ran roleplaying as Samantha, but after 3 dry runs, it didn't feel right so I scrapped it |

Card will be up today, kids. Rated R and c-scope - I'd implore you to expedite those character profiles as we tilt toward a new writing period, if nothing else than for the benefit of your opponents. |

Just on the subject of general courtesy, you were the first to sign on for this show. In normal circumstances, this would create a default two day handicap for a potential opponent who might be unfamiliar with your character's past here, based on the sheer number of new hands we've had come in recently. |

I've chucked up a semi-finished profile, still a few bits and pieces to add especially to the moveset, but it's more than enough for people to use for a RP.

Excluding the actual women we've had on here for the sale of this particular discussion, Mike, Davis and Munroe would be the successful ones. |

I've posted my RP for New Day Rising - been working on it for a couple of hours now, I'm pretty happy with it - but I'll leave it up to you guys to decide whether I should be or not.

Just a heads up - King Richius and I will absolutely lead by example in trying to foster a responsive community here where we read and reply to all offerings - just don't get discouraged if we don't get to it right away (at least speaking just for myself here). Now that the card is up, I've got to switch my attention over to a proper RP in my own right, as well as begin piecing the show together as it comes in. We'll absolutely get around to everyone, so bear with us - it's just a little rare that we see a day 1 RP. The enthusiasm, nevertheless, is duly noted and appreciated. |

I generally won't reply until the deadline is almost here so I can do a bunch of read & replying at once. That's ten days away. Which brings me to a minor point. I'm never going to complain about someone posting early, in fact I posted my first RP really early too. Some advice for future consideration: You have ten days so use them to your advantage. You never know what ideas may come if you give it a few days to percolate. |

Good lord, that reminds me...bit before most's time here, but Drakz, Kyzer, and possibly bad guy™ will remember a time when guys'd just post 2, 3, f*ckin' 4 RPs per show. It turned into a real quantity vs. quality thing (I still contend that this tactic is why I have one more L on my record as DB than I deserve). My memory could be shot to sh*t, but I've always equated Kyzer coming in and stomping everyone to sh*t as one of the real turning points in this fed when quality really began to matter - mostly 'cause everyone started trying to cop what he was doing. It got so bad at one point that you can still find old cards with RP limits. Let us never repeat this historical travesty ever again. |

Unless my memory's crashing again, I believe it was either him or @griffin who came up with the term "Kung-Fu Hardnuts" which, to this day, still stands out as one of the most simultaneously brief and hilarious things I've ever read here. |

Ah yes, the RP battles, especially in the House Shows board. I remember them well. I also remember Schneider wanting to kill us all for it.

I'm 90% certain that whatever post and/or thread it happened in was cleaned up, but it happened when I you f*cking everyone was shoot feuding with Dex at the time, specifically here over the merits of one stable over another. You guys I think had just started the SOS right around the time Dex had introduced the Sovereignty, and if I remember right, he was cheesed off because of some perceived intent to rip off his idea (which, for the record, f*ck both of y'all - you were both just trying to run the Shield WFWF Chapter), and in the course of discussion, someone made the point that at least the SOS was three active, separate writers, whereas the Sovereignty was "Dex and a bunch of kung-fu hardnuts that nobody cares about". Just writing it out again still makes me laugh. |

We righted the injustices of the corrupt WFWF. Belee dat. |

I remember sure fire first string WFWF Hall of Famer Immune once putting out SEVEN roleplays for one show.
The only time I can recall ever doing multiple roleplays was if I had multiple stories running into one show. I know for one of the Drakz matches, I had two roleplays, because one was decidedly darker and running themed than the other. My own laziness stunted me from ever putting out more than that
