Okay, guys, here's the standard review thread...couple of things before we get rocking.
First off...sorry about the late night/early morning post...just a busy weekend for me, personally. But, we're up and, technically, on time...I guess and I think the results are worth it.
Second...GREAT job by everyone this week. It reminded me how tough being a co-owner really is...I can't stress how close 4 of the 5 matches really were. A slight tweak in an rp here and there and we'd be looking at completely different results. I'm very proud of the effort you guys put in and know that with a roster of this caliber, we're in for a great future.
GM Jeffrey James has started a feedback thread in the feedback forum. If you lost and want to know why or how to improve...shoot him or any staff member, for that matter, a message. We're always here to lend advice.
Match Breakdown for this week goes as follows: Mystery Co Owner: Prodigy/Strong/Reilly/Thor, Syren/Carlton/Pizza/Cassidy and Demarco/Wright/Atkins/Chenoa.
The Great One: Dan/Douglas/Crawler/Dixon
GM James: Anderson/Kendu/Canon/Stevens
Now...onto the new review layout...we used to do this quite a bit in other places I've owned/rp'd in...I like it...I think it's a great way to really identify what's working and what's not...so, copy and paste this and fill in the answers for your review.
On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate this Superiority?
Which was the best match? What was the most exciting/fun point? What did you like the best about the show? What surprised you about the show? Best segment? Best commentary? Best wrestling spot?
Compare to other shows would you say this one was:
Better The Same Worst
Negative thoughts.. (If you want to give the opposite to any of the above, meaning, worst match, boring point, etc OR anything you have to say negative about the show)
Personal comments.. (Optional)
Suggestions? (Optional)
Questions.. (Optional)

You did, technically get a win...Rome was not built in a day...you're getting better.
But, if you want out, that's your choice

On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate this Superiority? 7. Best one so far, but we are just starting out and I think that in a month or so ...this will probably not as high up there ...which is a good thing.
Which was the best match? Young/Wright/Demarco/Atkin What was the most exciting/fun point? I'm going to cheat here and say my match ...but only because it had me back and forth on what would happen with my character. Very interesting. What did you like the best about the show? Rookies night out was a good concept. What surprised you about the show? R.M Strong leaving Trinity. Best segment? Justin Reilly's Best commentary? The commentators are still finding their footing I think Best wrestling spot? Microphone to the Jerry's kid.
Compare to other shows would you say this one was: This was the best so far.
Better The Same Worst
Negative thoughts.. (If you want to give the opposite to any of the above, meaning, worst match, boring point, etc OR anything you have to say negative about the show) I think at this point, and this happens with a lot of new feds ...we are all trying to out heel each other. But this does make people like Dixon and Reilly stand out because they are coming off as the faces really huge because of all the freakin heels.
Personal comments.. (Optional): I'm a little upset for two reasons, a comment that was made here right when the show got posted and the fact that it was deleted. To that person, you even said yourself that you wanted to get better ...you aren't going to win every match right off the bat. It had nothing to do with you or your character ...the RPing just needs improvement a tad. Which isn't hard to do. Stick around, let the GM send you the judging results to see how you can improve and give it another. Staff, I think in this case where it seems more like frustration instead of just being egotistic, I think you should let the post stay up so those of us who have been doing this for years can say: you win some and you lose some... you won't get better if you quit every time you lose. And it is no big deal really. In fact, you can lose a loss to build your character better. There are so many things you can do.
Suggestions? (Optional) Not much. Just stay the course and always try to improve and soon we'll have perfect results.
Questions.. (Optional) Not really.
Shout out to Reilly and Strong for giving me one hell of a match ...where I thought I was going to lose. Good job guys.

sick writing, chaps. a jolly good read.
Best Match: mine
Most Exciting Point: winning
What I Liked Best: winning
What Surprised Me: winning
Best Commentary: "He-Man was a fag…Scott Syren is skeletor…but with skin and shit." -- Hood
Best Wrestling Spot: "Pizza rushes at Carlton and screams “Pepperoni Plunge!!” Carlton responds by throwing an elbow at Pizza and busting him in the face."
Negative Thoughts: everyone is out to get me. i will never succeed at anything in life. if i threw myself into an empty well and broke my neck, nobody would care. i'm visualizing a baby puppy with all of its legs broken, covered in blood. (those are just negative thoughts in general; if you were asking for negative thoughts on tonight's show, I don't have any.)
Personal Comments: Predator is probably the best e-fed "NPC" I've ever read, although Hood still holds a special place in my heart.
Suggestions: we need some stables and alliances other than this little church group we've got going on, but i guess that's on us moreso than ownership.

Alexis...I don't think it was anyone from the staff who deleted that comment. I noticed it right after it was posted...but it had already been partially deleted (I think)...so I didn't get to read the entire initial post.
I don't delete a whole lot from these forums (neither does TGO or GM James)...I like it when people can post whatever, without any fear of censorship...that's how the OOC board should be.
Syren...your post excites me...and not in the PG disney kind of way.

Yeah I got rather turned on by Syren's post. And Syren never fear, TGO is here to take away all of your anguish and suffering, and also to add more exciting alliances to the fold!

Honestly, I don't think we need to make fun of him ...the guy is just frustrated ...as R.M Strong said losing sucks and it takes a couple of times for people to realize that taking a loss and improving is a better route than quitting immediately, starting in a new fed, losing there, and quitting. I'm hoping he changes his mind because it seemed like he wanted to learn to improve before the second loss.
I just don't think teasing (and seriously, this is VERY light teasing anyways) doesn't help in this particular situation.

I really am glad I didn't make his roster image. If somebody can't take two losses in a row without giving up, then they don't belong here. We have amazing talent in this fed.

Ahhh, the famous "review layout"...
On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate this Superiority? A 6, I suppose?
Which was the best match? Dixon/Dan/Douglas/Crawler. That was the match I wasn't sure who would win.
What was the most exciting/fun point? I'll go with that match as well.
What did you like the best about the show? Good to see jobbers getting fired *lol* j/k. I guess the whole build to the next show? It made the matches mean more, for sure.
What surprised you about the show? Dangerous Dan turning at the end. Shocking!
Best segment? The jobbers getting fired.
Best commentary? The only part that stood out to me was when Hood turned his headset off for a while. Those parts made me laugh.
Best wrestling spot? Powerbomb off the stage. Always bad news.
Compare to other shows would you say this one was: Better, but still got some kinks being worked out.
Negative thoughts.. I think I'd echo Lex on this one. The problem appears to be that the heels are all over the place. DeMarco, a true heel in my mind, gets taken out by TGO (another true heel). RM Strong, who helped last week in the crucifying part, gets attacked by Madelyne Wright, who's now apparently a super-heel with Jeffrey James in the Trinity. Dangerous Dan turns at the end of the night, so he's a heel too. We've even got Mark Atkins throwing a mic at a Make-A-Wish Foundation gathering *lol*.
I guess, as an impartial reader of the shows, I'm looking for some fan favorites to start stepping up. There only seems to be a few, so others need to take the storylines and run with them. This isn't on the show-writers, this is on the wrestlers. Find a way to make yourselves stand out in the storylines and take it to the heels.
Anyhow, that's my two cents. Take it for what it's worth. Peace.

+1 to you Sir Andrew, mainly because you picked everything that I was a part of as a favorite :-)
And I echo the last statement we can only do so much do we're hoping to see some faces do some true face work.

Oh and another thing, guys it's tough getting handed a loss especially after you work hard on something and we understand that. We really want to help each and every one of you improve and we're here to help you do that. Unfortunately Lance lost two times but he is getting better and I really hope that he decides to stick around.
