Suggestions Made

[Pete]

Just a quick summation of the suggestions that were made, and what we discussed, and how I feel about it - mostly for the benefit of the two new staffers:

- I can live without the points system, as long as, as discussed, we have an unwritten one that we use among ourselves. We must always have a valid reason to give to someone who asks why they lost.

- I can also live with all the RPs for a match being on the same thread, although separate threads would facilitate chains and so forth. However it may well be better/more organized the way you guys do it.

- I do feel that we absolutely need to increase the number of "caps" (RPs) per match. I know Slim agrees, so can we implement this in the near future? One RP per person is far too little to properly develop characters and tell stories, the ideal would be 2-4.

Also please note that, when bringing these ideas up with Andy, I was thinking of implementing them on a mid-term basis. Not too long, because they might be necessary, but Andy did jump the gun a little.

Feel free to chip in with any thoughts, and whatnot. Just recapping so everyone knows where Slim and I are at with this merger.

 

[Slim]

RP cap will be increased starting next show. That is a definite. The only question is by how much. 2 can work for a decent back and forth. I'd say 3 for now just to feel it out. Don't want to go too high just yet.

And yes we must ALWAYS have a valid reason(s) for why a person wins or loses. All matches that way if anybody asks we will have an answer other than "They did better than you" cause that won't fly under my watch. Need proper constructive criticism. And encouragement.

But yeah... more ideas, more suggestions. Lets hear them.

Yeah, let it be 2 for most matches and 3 for the main event for now. I'm cool with 3 for all, but yeah, some of these guys might not be ready. That's why the vets and steady rpers end up in the main event.

Ok, I'm editing this comment below...The ACW Interactive is a good place to do these character building no pointers. Don't need that. Sorry, I just got learned.
I say we allow one character building rp per card for NO POINTS. That way if they don't want to, they don't have to. But, if they do, we learn more about their character and they can flesh out the details.

As for the rping all in one thread, not all our rps consist of continuous promo. We have a lot of chains, but most of them are stand alone. I've read some of the rp threads but not all. So, I suppose the person who rps second doesn't feel the need to just continue their challenger's rp? IDK...just feelin' it out here.

 

[Slim]

Yeah each character is pretty much their own and they promo for themselves. Following after and continuing a story like that is almost like a trash talk fed. But we develop our own stories. But like if there was to be a feud or something then they can talk it over and kinda integrate each other but for the most part... ya don't continue where the other person left off or anything like that.

 

[BDC]

Gotcha...don't HAVE to, but if it works, it works.

Not to crap on you guys and I only read the first two replies and am extremely busy; but one role-play for the whole card, two role-plays for main event, three role-plays for title matches, and four role-plays for bulk-matches like 6-man matches or battle royals.

 

[BDC]

I can see going to three right now, but four may have to wait for the next PPV.

hmmm... I think we need to make PPVs stand out. 2 per show - all matchces. PPV matches get 3 and the title matches get 4. and when we get to battle royals... we'll conquer that monster. Probably 3 each cause that'll be a lot to read through.

Just my thought. Cause I really wanna up it so there isn't 1 rp for any match cause that just isn't fun at all.

 

[BDC]

I think that's fair enough.

The only time a 1 rp cap is neccessary is for new rpers to test them out.

 

[Slim]

hmmm... never thought of that. I like it.

I just want to make it clear that I am happy for changes to be made if I think that they will help the fed. But as I said about a dozen times to Andy there is no need to rush things and there is plenty of time to make changes in the future. The focus has to be on the weekly show because late shows are what kills feds. Impliment the good ideas like increasing RP limit and adding a couple of titles now but the other changes can occur naturally as the fed continues to grow.

 

[BDC]

Exactly what I just said in the ACW vs PWA thread. Glad to know we are ALL on the same page.
