I hate only getting about 20 mins to play with it on launch day. Fuckin' school...

Lucky you, some got still to wait till Friday for their copy of the game. Which kinda sucks bad as I can't wait to get my hands on it. On a side note to this, we still have to see how the caw trading works in general if there is one server on which the caws get uploaded world wide and everyone has access to it or if they restrict the caw trading to the different regions as well, which i hope that it won't be the chase.

Side nore from my side I gonna get 360 first cause i want to trade caws with jay lol and finally have 64 layers
Might join back up too if i am able to be satisfied with my caws and how they turn out.

There's some restrictions, as we all knew there would be. Not being able to double layer 3D items etc etc, the main issue for ME?

Is this is the first time I've converted formulas between platforms, so this is uh... it's gonna take a while to get right... lmao

;D Things are quite horrible at the moment.

big trouble if true

[Jerry Massey]

If this place was resurrected, that would be cool. But at the same time I don't even know whether or not I will even buy 2010.

Plus, I don't have any internet connections hooked to my system.

OK closer to the season time if you get the game or rent it, then PM me the base figures for body/face etc. Then even if it's camera pics of the screen for the attire as clear as possible or reference pics I'll see what I can do for you.

[Crymson]

Or, after thinking this over at work... it means I sim alone. It means the rest of the helpers will make CAWs and put them on the PSN for me to Download. Should be simple enough. And I'm almost willing to see about building people up a little bit so that they can have some attributes. Especially if it's only 2 hours like I'm reading... I'll let you know when I level up Crymson finally how I feel about it...

[Joe Bruiser]

To Be...Hopefully

[Amanda Wallace]

So's anybody else got any input toward what they wanna see... like content wise, rules wise, things like that? That's the mainreason for this post and all lol, especially for a few of you around here that I know can be a bit... "pickier" and such...

[Joe Bruiser]

Slider wise should take a bit before seeing what you will use here right? What about CAF's?

[Lessien Melwasul]

I agree. The two weeks between shows is fantastic for everybody I think. It will make staff life at least a little easier and fit better with a more toned down E-fed reality (it ain't what it used to be, so hug the now).

The only way you're going to get rid of history is to come in with new, fresh and exciting characters. Which I'm actually all for. You're all getting fat and lazy. ;D

It's really hard to give too many opinions when we don't really know how big our roster is going to be. So again, in general, really take a look at what we have and fill in accordingly. If we have 10 handlers handling 20 characters, then I doubt we need 5 belts, 3 hotels, 2 bars, 27 casinos and 17 NPCs.

I know this has been talked about before, and it's probably too labor intensive for staff. But I would love to see matches made by the person in charge: A Booker. I mean really, how often do wrestlers make their own matches? Rarely. I think it would be fun to have a match schedule released, then role play around it. It might bring back some surprises, inspiration or challenges to this scene. I mean Crymson vs BoBo Kitty Pants, it will never happen unless staff orders it.

I'd really like to see some other fresh ideas as well. Break away a little bit, try something new. I probably have a few more, but they a re trapped under the rubble. Send help!

Super finisher movesets = no-no. Use some common sense. I saw that when I put Crym's moveset together and thought the Paydirt in the normal moves was fuckin' ridiculous.

History, I'm all for. I'm also all for tellingsomeone "So?" if they think their super title status means they get anywhere. ON that note though, if we have returning champs, they keep their belts starting off. Being that GCW truly only had a summer break, I'm also on the fence to not neglect the fed's former champs should they return, IE: Avenger, Pryor, Genesis (if he doesn't bring the TNB/past GCW issues with him) and so on.

EDITS: I've had a revelation about this. Especially since I do want to do stats and abilities. Since we have alternate attires, needing to get attire edits from you guys should be a non-issue. The moveset edits, I don't want to get a shit-ton of them of you guys "trying" to make something work to get wins. I'm all for just one edit, with a cap of 5 first-come, first-serve CAWS per month.

I was going to just come in and say I think I'm up for it if we get this thing going again (me in an OOC thread, I know. Wait, it gets better), but I just wanted to throw a couple things in adding on what's been said.

Booking is probably one of the coolest ideas we could experiment with for all the reasons Lessien said, but it actually makes more sense and I do so love things that make sense.

It might not even be that hard since you can always, coordinate via PM, go out and cut a promo on someone, walk up and punch someone in the face as a pretext, etc. so the staff can scan through and pull stuff together easily.

That could also go great if you were to put a central narrative together for GCW ripped from its existing history since there's real potential to get people involved. Randomly throw people in and see what happens.

I agree with what Lessien said. It fits more into my idea of preplanned wins and loses for next year too.

I'd like to see the title system reworked. What does it take to get a shot? People shouldn't have to worry about the champion noticing their efforts in order to get a shot. And instead, a system needs to be established to set those who have met whatever requirements into contention.

With possibly returning champs still holding the belt, I'm wondering if they'll be reliable to RP with?

What I mean by that is, the last time I was here, more than a few people would appear in a topic, then went AWOL after a post, never to be seen again until the next week.

So to me, there should be a rule that whoever holds titles need to be reliable enough to be here to defend, or reject any challengers.

Having learned a few things around other places since last being here, I'd also like to know that veteran RP'ers aren't pushed over anyone else just because they've been in the e-fed game longer. Or get special treatment and such. (i.e. Gifted titles, allowed to say whatever they want without repercussions, while everyone else is warned or whatever, and being the focus of the GM or CEO, while everyone else is just about ignored)

I'd also like to see more variety in PPV's, theme wise (i.e. gimmicky types like you lose to this person, you're fired, or you have to wear this, cut your hair off, be the winners valet, etc....Yeah, I may be alone here... ) but you get the point.

Planned victories and losses kills the entire concept of a simmed e-fed.
