BTB Discussion Thread

[Impactsona]

I have a few names for my WrWritten/TEW16 BTB.
EWF(Elite Wrestling Federation ) A reboot.
EPW(Exile Pro Wrestling)
TIW(Total Impact Wrestling)
RWF(Revolution Wrestling Federation)
What name fits best?

The GFX for the EWF Reboot. Thoughts?

I am thinking about doing a BTB. This section has taunted me a bit, and I said in my introduction that I would either join the e-fed or think of a BTB to do so I can get involved here. I looked at the e-fed and it doesn't look like my cup of tea so I am thinking about doing one here. Only thing is I want it to be thought out a bit and done in a way where I can keep it up. Since I have work right now and school in the fall.

I have an idea of a more monthly e-fed rather than "weekly" so I can put more effort in the shows but still have wiggle room. Kind of like how Indy companies usually have a show a month or two. Then if I need to keep storylines going I can have little "News Updates" or "video packages" to advance storylines.

For my roster, I am not sure if I should used established stars, or maybe create my own characters (and maybe let others create their own), or maybe a mix.

I would not mind some ideas from anyone

I did a btb with custom wrestlers before. I have it saved on my computer if you want to see it hou can message me.

The roster pic isn't bad, but I wouldn't put the texture over the wrestlers in your match cards

It's meant to be in motion, I don't know why it's a still.

It's really cool to see this section being active even if I lose interest in writing BTBs

Especially since I heard it wasn't very active before we showed up.

We have some good writers, but we just need more readers.

I'd be willing to read more as long as people put up good quality.

Also, if you thought I was kidding about making a BTB, you are wrong! I have a roster made, backstory, bios, and first card made. I am busy the next day or two, but I may post it this weekend and start writing the first show.

(Big thanks to Crithu for helping me get ideas)

No problem, I love helping others with their BTBs.

Personally, I try to read every BTB at least once. I don't always like everyone's stories, but I know it can be discouraging if you think no one reads. I also like when I see people who improve a lot in their projects. I guess I see it as I had several people help me out when I first started, so I should try and help others.

Speaking of which does a mass exodus backstory for my fed make sense?

That seems to be a common backstory for custom e feds, and it cetainly works but it's not unique. So it's up to you.

One take you could do is have a group of wrestlers who are upset with the state of the industry leave and start their own promotion. I was thinking of an elite 6 kind of thing. Maybe guys like Kurt Angle and CM Punk.

I use CS5.5 for editing and Camtasia to rerender to cut down on file size tuning.
