Book This! - General Discussion

[Da Prophet]

Having some trouble with Test vs Raven for the opening match on Smackdown. I'll probably do a summary for this match while I write the rest out in full. The show could be up Sunday if I can get a big chunk of it finished on Saturday.

 

[GCB]

Planning to post RAW over the next couple of days, could be a good one as we head out of Vengeance into the Michael Cole era on SMACKDOWN and the new series of NXT which starts this week (in WWE) ... Am enjoying writing RAW, just the main event left!

 

[Johnny Scumm]

My Carnage will be late 'cos I'm a cunt.

 

[GLOBAL ICON]

Hey guys, I'm afraid RAW will be delayed because I'm still learning to Photoshop.

 

[#1Peep]

First two segments of Smackdown are complete!

How's everyone on this 'lovely' rainy Saturday?

 

[GCB]

Here in 'jolly, old England' - it isn't raining but it is frosty this morning.

Going to tweak RAW so it fits into posts, then I'll post it over the next ten minutes or so. Enjoy.

This day just got better.

Oh, just noticed. 200 posts. First post plus 199 replies. Ever been done in BT other than in this thread?

Big development over in the Fortnightly Rankings thread

Bit disappointed to only have three reviews for Vengeance. Thanks Theo, JAM and Peep. I think some people in the forum seem to think that they don't need to do reviews but will get them back? I've given reviews to people in the past few weeks and they've not been returned for my PPV? Anyway, Peep, Theo and JAM, thank you. JAM, I definitely owe you a review but I've given you loads in the past already so you know I'm good for one soon.

Reviews keep BT moving along, folks. Without reviews, people lose motivation. C'mon.

Everyone who hasn't, get a review for GCB pronto! If you want to Butty, chuck a PM to LSN, he offers great reviews from a perspective outside of Book This writers.

I am going to go read RAW right now.

 

[JamJam]

Raw was pretty awesome GCB. But I really can't wait for Smackdown

I'm not trying to get more reviews, I just think people need to do more of them. We all get busy but when you have a bit of time to comment, it is surely a good idea to do so? Otherwise we end up with a 'review for review' system which is what lets other, ahem, forums down. I always try to repay any reviews I get but I also try to review new people. It seems that the newcomers to BT just want people to review their show but won't review other peoples either.

 

[#1Peep]

Very true. Honestly, I only review the shows that I enjoy to read. But I will always chip in some advice to the newer guys if someone hasn't already done so. I've always felt that we should 'recruit' some bookers from that other forum, maybe those that were in GCB's position. They are putting out quality shows yet they aren't getting any reviews, or any helpful reviews.

 

[Da Prophet]

I review the projects that I enjoy to read. I'll rep everyone who reviews my shows but not everyone gets a review back sometimes. All it comes down to is if the writing is interesting and I don't want to write a review for something that I find boring.

Well Proph, see those two sentences? Those sentences will be helpful in any thread that you review provided that you say why you think it's boring and what not. Criticism is part of the reviews so I'm sure anyone would love to hear what you have to say since you're one of the top bookers here. So yeah, hand out a few reviews everyone!

 

[Johnny Scumm]

Right, Carnage is ready to go up, however... the graphics I requested still aren't ready. Mike is missing one and I wanna post it with all of them together.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

Hey guys I would like to introduce myself to BT!Now let me tell you all that my first show will be in Christmas Day.

 

[Johnny Scumm]

Why post a show on Christmas Day? I doubt many of us will be around to read it.
Post it before. We're 2 weeks away from Christmas & to be honest, I wanna see what you can pull out of the bag.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

I see what you are saying.I guess I'll have to think about it.

 

[Johnny Scumm]

It'll make sense. Also, you've posted nothing on the BT page about a roster, when your shows will take place, how your show was created etc. You need to do that.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

I know I just need to make sure of the schedule of all the ppv's.

 

[Johnny Scumm]

Ok.
Let us know when it's up, but post your Show sooner rather than later.
You don't have to stick to a schedule after that, but it's better to get the first one up & going in a few days.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

Maybe like in 4-7 days cause I have a poll right now about the WWE Title.

 

[GCB]

See my comments about the WWE Championship poll, True Campeon. I don't like the idea of a vote for who should win the WWE Championship to be honest.

Little request as well - when you post your roster up, please don't put them into face and heel categories! If your writing is good enough, we'll work that out for ourselves.

 

[Awesome_Miz]

Sure GCB and also see my comment.
