Yeah, I understand. I'm clearly being a pit pushy haha, so sorry about that!
Thanks for the mini-RP guide though!

What I'm proud of is the activity. Last week we had 15 rps! This week we have a chance to see 30!

We have three more days! Lets burn this thing down people! We can do nothing without you!

For me:

- Grammar, grammar, grammar. This means you, McHenry - commas do exist you know ;). I can put up with the odd spelling mistake (even though it may make me cringe), but please do be careful.

- Execution. For what the segment is (promo, backstory, interview) is it well executed? Did it keep me reading? Or did I tune out halfway through? And was it easy to follow? Eye candy does count here, too, so at least use some paragraph spacing and minimal coding.

- Character development. Does it give me a glimpse into who that character is and how they think? Or did it expand upon what I already knew about them, and if so, how well?

- Personal preference. I like some promos better than others. There is no reason for this except that I do. Deal with it ;)

Hope that helps!

And Sean, I was pushing for a ratings system early on, too, but I see where Slim is going and I agree. In the PWA, we did have cases where a - everyone started tailoring their promos to the last detail so that they lost spontaneity, b - someone lost to an inferior opponent because they didn't give a shit about relativity and just wrote about what they felt like (hello, me!) and c - people whined about how their RP was more relative or better written than the other guy's and the graders were biased, etc (hello, me again! :) ). Not to mention Word Count was a bitch! So yeah, I kinda agree with Slim.

I had written a set of rules for the PWA at one point, I could do the same for ACW (with input from Slim and Beedz of course!)

And Slim, can we push the character limit to three? Pleeeeeeeease? (Puppy-dog eyes) ;)

Just for those that don't know, I'm having to take a few months off in the fed. My internet has a mind of its own so I never know when it's going to be on and it hasn't been on often recently. Also I will be moving soon so I won't be back until I get my internet sorted in my new place, oh and I will be bringing in another superstar when I get back.

Cool shaun. Sorry that had to happen now, but it should make things interesting when you come back.

He will be back, not sure when but he will be back. Didn't really want to take this break this early, I wanted to know what the guys that weren't on ITR thought of him.
