I am disappointed that Mak's theme isn't "Return of the Mack".
Great stuff. I see some typo's on my end in the last segment that are driving me crazy but otherwise I enjoyed everything.

I ran this through the #SuperElite Translator 9000 and it came out: "The two matches King Richius wrote along with matches by Jayson Sykes and Lazer and segments by others was simply too much awesomeness for my PC so it took a break. I'm sorry and results will be up soon." Twenty seven updates. Long enough for me to crack a 2L of Coke Zero and zap a couple lengths of Elio's. Running much better now. Code testing happening as we speak. Stay tuned. Is that a new term for coke?

Doesn't really matter. You act like you couldn't beat Dean and Bish. Bish, I still contend, would have mopped the floor with me if he were on (and every day I have to keep writing this god damn character I start by cursing Markw's name). Dean's a match - I've got one on him, he's got one on me on account of my one time status as a complete louse. You know as well as I do the circumstances around that last match. If he'd have turned in a slightly altered version of what he did, on time, paired with Drakz, I don't think we'd have ever taken those titles. I still chalk that one up to a default by virtue of his complete lack of timeliness and the content I raised a stink over. FWIW, I still absolutely believe that the stories of my success have been greatly exaggerated, and one needn't look much further than this god damn title run of mine - nothing I've handed in since....*checks*....September of last year has been anywhere near the standard I expect of myself. I'll be the first to say that I've been completely exposed, and I cannot wait to kill Brennan off once and for all and get on with booking myself in the spot I rightfully belong halfway down the card. I am going to make that happen for you buddy.

I'm just over the idea that if a match didn't involve the same 20 or so wrestlers that it just couldn't be that great of a match. It's even worse in something like WWE's women's division. If you're not one of the "Four Horsewomen" according to a lot of people, it's like your entire existence is questioned. Asuka's one of the lone exceptions. Alexa Bliss is my favorite. I am tired of Bayley and Sasha. Neither of them interest me anymore.

I don't see Janela as a death match guy. I see him more as a Mick Foley but with a more natural heel disposition. His style for me is a nice break from what I see every where else. Everyone is either copying New Japan or the style PWG has popularized the last five years. I am not a death match person but CZW has some of the best storylines in the indies and a complete variety of wrestling. This is my least favorite thing about the growth in popularity of those promotions. Nowadays, most people won’t see a match as good if it doesn’t fit into these categories or it is rated a certain star rating. 100% agree.

I watched Joey Janela in BOLA against Sammy Guevara and I thought that match was crap. That match was bad, but everything else he has done in PWG has been solid. He has been on every card since then. I went to Joey Janela's Spring Break last year in Orlando and his match with Marty Jannetty was way better than I expected.

Joey JanelaWatch this. Dude is f~cking crazy and is becoming a big name on the indy scene. Watched it. F*ck that style of wrestling. There's no real audience for it and it only serves to put more of a divide between you and the bigger pay days. It's an unnecessary risk for no real pay off as it gets forgotten about so quickly. People expect you to always go bigger. Your career WILL end sooner than it should. Cornette's comments on the roof bump are absolutely correct in my opinion. All I can say is I'm glad he seems to be moving away from it. I don't see Janela as a death match guy. I see him more as a Mick Foley but with a more natural heel disposition. His style for me is a nice break from what I see every where else. Everyone is either copying New Japan or the style PWG has popularized the last five years.

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. I was doing two rps almost every show when I first got here. The quantity vs quality argument is one I completely understand, to me though, it all depends on who in the match. Like when I faced Rev Shadow, I did two rps and so did he. Those are probably the best ones I ever wrote, minus the one that had me go over Trace and Ace in a triple threat. It is a challenge to write two rps for the same match and not have them be identical. When our match happens, I don't know how I will only write one. It will probably be two. I have the bare bones done now for it. 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 Both times we faced off we both did two rps if I am remembering right.

While I've yet to topple any bronze statues of misplaced, historical reverence, I'd like to draw attention to this evening's final act of destruction: our newly revamped, slightly updated WFWF Staff page. For our new members - these characters are largely considered NPCs, or non-player characters. You are generally free to include them in your RPs/segments/etc. as needed, so long as you maintain a basic modicum of respect, i.e. no striking/maiming/mutilating/etc. A brief bio on each has been included as a sort of guide to aid those of you ambitious enough to join in the effort to flesh out our shows in inserting these characters into the narrative. Enjoy! I want to add that I already violated rule one for NPCs by having Frank and Lila "get physical" at Back to Basics. It's part of a long term story with ramifications for Frank & Lila that will play out in the coming months. Do as Deep Figure Value says, not as I do. I'm a bad boy. You are no Joey Janela.

I lied - one last change tonight that will alter time, space, and most importantly, history as we know it. A hearty welcome to our newcomers, who can all find themselves enshrined in our active roster page. Additionally, my most sincere apologies to Lazer - I tried, bruv. I really tried, but Big Bobby's head and that mask? Just wasn't happening. Hope this works for you. Did I miss Mak Cross's return somewhere?

As part of my continued efforts to disrespect and disregard the history of the WFWF, interested parties may now find a uniformed history of the WFWF Women's Championship within the retired championships section of the title history page. Can we get the return of: The WFWF needs some sex appeal. Plus I love the name. Cherry Bomb was Johnny Michaels. Black Widow was Kronic. Jade was Meg. They didn't tell anyone they were running multiple characters in the fed to beef up the women's division.

This is a really bittersweet show for me. I thought the show itself was fantastic and you guys did a great job with what you were given in terms of sign-ups and no-shows, but at the same time it's weird knowing that a character I've written for over ten years is pretty much gone, just like that. That's right, this was the end of Trace Demon. It's not a story that's going to be resolved next show with him turning up right as rain, he's gone, done, say adios to the King of Demons. Trace has always been a sort of dark mirror of myself and writing him has gotten me through some pretty messed up times in my own life, so it was pretty damn weird to write him off in the way I did. But at the same time I feel like ten years plus writing the same character, with literally no time-off from him in that entire time, is too much. There's only so many stories to tell and only so much time you can write one guy before you inevitably get burned out. So that's it, Trace Demon is no more. Hope you all enjoyed the ride. I don't know where you got your creativity from to keep it up for so long without a break but congrats. It is going to strange not seeing Trace(the character) around.

Simple question for bad guy™ and Kyzer : would you be appeased if the HoF was divided into two classes: "Characters" which would recognize great writing and "Members" which would recognize great contributions to the fed? And before you ask... yes, I think a person who was both a great writer and contributed a lot behind the scenes could be in both classes. I don't have an opinion about a hall of fame for the handlers. I just don't want to be thought of in the same group as sh~tty writers.

I would rather be honest than sugar coat things so people on the internet like me more like you do. I have always thought of the Hall of Fame as something you should earn for writing good rps and being creative. I don't think people should get it for just being around for a long time like you seem to think. Yukio is the prime example. You talk about all the things here he did here for you and other people starting out and that is all great. But being great at boosting self esteem and writing something interesting are two different things. And this is not an angle fed where people win based on storyline so I don't see why we recognize those with longevity but no real talent. I loved Zmaster as a person but every rp was the same thing with him. Why does he get in the hall of fame for sticking around for years writing the same exact thing. Can you even tell me what his gimmick was? You can't because he didn't have one. It was just that he had been here forever getting steamrolled by his co mods when he ran the place. Justa Mazing is in the hall of fame when he only won the title because he was the mod and wanted a title run. That is straight from him. His writing wasn't anything outstanding. I would say Immune sitting in a cage was a more entertaining rp than anything Justa put out but yet he is in the hall of fame. What a waste. What is the point of something exclusive like a hall of fame if you just let in every schmuck that has been through this place? Mazing and ZMaster were in before I got here. So you truly believe only great writers should be in the HoF, and not the people who quite literally kept this place alive so you still have somewhere to come to today? This place would have been deleted back in 2009 if it weren't for Yukio, Thunder, E, Wayne and later Trace and his medley of Co owners. Contributions to the betterment, and in some cases survival, of this board need to be taken into account otherwise anyone with this mindset is quite literally doing nothing but stroking their own ego for the sake of just doing it, eff the rest of the work that goes into a fed. I think this illustrates a major problem with the HoF that makes it hard to take seriously. There is no set criteria or standard process for what makes a person a HoFer. Is it being a talented writer? Longevity? A so-so writer who contributed a lot to the fed in other ways behind the scenes? The fact that Sonstuds probably could have snuck a non-existent character into the list and nobody would have noticed says a lot. That's part of what Brennan and I want to address, if the majority give us the green light. And we don't intend to do it alone. We will get input from a lot of people. The other goal is to make it something more than a simple list of names. Add some bio info and career highlights that remind us why they are in the HoF. Make the HoF page a place you actually want to read for enjoyment and historical context. Perhaps I'm placing too much emphasis on the HoF but the WFWF has a long history and I think the HoF should honor that history, not bury it in controversy and fading memories leading to questions like "Who the hell is Justun Stoppable? Is he in for worst name ever?" And see, this is fine. But desiring a total cleansing and purge of anyone that doesn't meet a very certain group of peoples' criteria is absolutely ludicrous. Sure, I have takes on who should be in and shouldn't just like anyone else who's been here long enough. Difference is, while I love the idea you and Brennan have, a majority of the people in the HoF are going to get shafted because it'll almost always be 2-1 or 3-1 in agreement/disagreement, with one certain mindset having a distinct advantage in how this situation plays out. Now I know Brennan said anyone in isn't getting axed. But let's be honest here, there's gonna be a lot of push for it coming from one side, or at the very least if the plan stays the same everyone who doesn't meet a certain criteria gets a * next to their name, and it's going to eventually cause problems within the fed itself, because controversial things always do...and it RARELY turns out well. And this is trivial compared to some other issues we've had, and Kyzer and I are already "discussing aggressively." Yes I do think only great writers should get into an e-fed hall of fame. E-fedding is more about writing stories than it is about wrestling. It is all great and good that Yukio or whoever the f~ck held this place together whenever. With all the traffic on this board, this fed is going to continue no matter who is around. It has gone dormant multiple times and it always comes back. Seeing as how I know how much goes into running this fed, I would never use that an excuse to be in a fictional hall of fame for my fictional character in the fictional wrestling promotion. Just because someone was a mod or wrote some shows doesn't make their character any more relevant. If they suck, they suck and shouldn't be getting praise for sucking. This isn't some rec league soccer where everyone deserves a trophy. No everyone does. Why is it ludicrous? Are you worried that you might be one of the ones gutted from the hall of fame without all the sh~t you did as owner working to your advantage? Or are you worried about the feelings of people who aren't active anymore? I honestly don't care about being in it myself but if I am in it, I don't want to be lumped in with a bunch of hack job writers. I have no problem being in the company of Trace, Drakz, Alex Sean, EBR or Mike and some others. They are all great writers who proved they deserve it. But I do have a problem with it being assumed that some one like Yukio or Johnny Michaels was on the same level as myself or the guys I named. I have strong opinions about Obo but he deserved his spot. He doesn't deserve to be lumped into the same category as say CBT or "Man Of The Hour" Josh. Obo is head and shoulders above those guys. There are people in the Hall of Fame who are there because they deserve it and there are people in the Hall of Fame who are there because someone in power liked them. The latter is what I think should be cut. And if their feelings get hurt so be it. The world doesn't cater to snowflakes.

Not trying to go off topic, I understand there's a serious situation going on with HOF, but if some don't wanna concentrate on that. So has anyone ever used themselves as a pic base? I'm thinking I might. Shane O'Riley did way back in the day.

Gut the Hall of Fame. There are too many sh~tty writers in it. They don't deserve it. Gut the trash. King Richius and now you see my concern, because he's not being sarcastic for once. I would rather be honest than sugar coat things so people on the internet like me more like you do. I have always thought of the Hall of Fame as something you should earn for writing good rps and being creative.
