Book This! - General Discussion

Well Smackdown is half done, with only two matches to go. Maybe Tuesday, if I sit down and write tonight. Got a couple of things this week, so that is why it may take awhile.

Smackdown is LIVE!!!

Go check it out, World Championship match is set. Did JBL beat the clock, or did he fail? Find out now, quick run to the thread!​
 
Hi everyone, Book This looks to be alot of fun and I'd be interested in putting together a project too... To The Doctor or anyone else who can help I just have a few questions.

Can I use dead wrestlers. For example if I was to create a new Company and my favourite wrestler is Eddie Guerrero or Mike Awesome for example, can I say that it is an alternate timeline and they are still with us and are in my fed, or do I have to write the fed in a time where the men were still alive?

I guess the same goes for someone who is injured and cannot wrestle, such as Stone Cold. What if he could still go, can we add him in our projects... I don't want to do the wrong before I even start. Many Thanks guys.
 
You can use whoever you want, mate. This is your dream fed, your chance to be as creative as you want with whoever you want. I mean, in SCW I had Kanyon and Kendrick team up and become ravers, so yeah :lmao:

Do what you'd like and just follow the rules mate. Glad to have you.
 
Ok so I've posted my first show TNA 2011, hopefully it's half decent compared to all the great stuff that is on here. If anyone wanted to drop some comments on what I can do to improve or what you hated or liked that would really help me as this is my first Book This...

I tried to just have fun with it and even added a typical TNA cluster#^& into it just so people would still get a TNA vibe hahaha... Hope those who have already read it liked it and as I said please feel free to give me any pointers, I would appreciate it. Thanks again Doctor for your help previous.

Thanks guys!

Thanks guys!

I'll take a quick look, and drop some thoughts.
 
Wow...It's crazy to see this many new BTs. I know I've been gone a LONG time, but there was almost nothing when I left. I'll try to skim the ones with a higher post count, since I assume those are the ones actually being worked on. I'd love to do work on NSCW, but it took way too much time.

Also, it makes me kind of proud, to see my ".wz" idea has stuck.
 
So I'm thinking about a possible comeback, but I want to do something different. Maybe a request type BT. It wouldn't really revolve around storylines, but more so you guys pick a card of say ten matches and I write the matches. Of course nothing ridiculous but normal stuff ya know? I don't know if that makes sense at all.
 
Any chance for any comments on my BT TNA 2011, before I put the next installemnet up guys. As I said looking for what I can improve on. Thanks!
 
Smackdown should be up some point this weekend. Would still love some feedback on my first show if anyone's got the time? Cheers :)
 
If my time presents itself properly I'm thinking about making a quicker return than I expected. Right now my thinking is starting up a WWE BT following Wrestlemania XXVII using their results. We shall see though. Not really originally, but my mind is fried as to starting something new and I don't really want to do another joint BT as they just seem to be unsuccessful.
 
Hey BT team, I'm very excited I have got so many views on my TNA 2011. I hope that everyone who is reading it thinks it's ok so far as it is my first attempt at soemthing like this.

I just want to let the readers know that my wife and I are having our first child, so I might not have the next episode up for awhile but I just want to let you all know I'm not giving up on this and that it'll just be a short hiatus.

Cheers again! GS
 
With assessments basically finished, I have time to write up the go home shows for my thread. Expect them up in the next week.
 
Nice, I will try to get a review for your go home shows Proph. BTW, where is your quote in your sig from?
 
Still writing Smackdown folks - got about a million deadlines for school this week though so might be the weekend before it's posted...
 
I'm enjoying my current WWE Book This but just wondered what people thought of this idea: http://forums.wrestlezone.com/showthread.php?p=2359932#post2359932

That was my first attempt at a Book This! and I was really enjoying it. What kinda spoilt it for me was getting questioned by someone about using deceased characters. I changed it but then lost interest in it. The release of WWE Allstars made me think about it - I haven't bought it, looks crap - and I wondered about maybe resurrecting it or starting it again with a similar concept. A sort of mix of the Gimmicky era of the 90's, the Attitude Era and the present day WWE but with all the wrestlers at the height of their powers.

I guess I'm beginning to think about a new project to do so I can take a break from my current one sometimes and have a less intense one to write instead.

Other ideas I've had:
- Taking the WWF from the mid-nineties and setting it in the current set-up (i.e. the situation and roster and champions after WrestleMania 9 and going from there as if it was now!)
- Re-doing the WCW Invasion or going from after the Survivor Series where the WWF won against WCW/ECW.

Thoughts?

Personally I thought your original Book This! was really good. The promo stuff was great, and it was a fun show. But I like what you're doing now. It has been a very success BT, one of the best here. Please stay with it, it is probably the only one I read and only have good things to say.

If you were to do another one, then the Invasion angle after Survivor Series. It would give you so much to work with. I myself have always wanted to do a WWE 2003 Book This so I could use Austin, Rock, Lesnar and Goldberg at once.

And about using wrestlers that have pasted on, don't worry about it. I think if you're using them in a time period where they were alive, then it is fine. You used them now, however it wasn't like a proper federation. It wasn't like you had Mr Perfect on RAW in 2011 in a serious BT.

Oh and I'll be dropping feedback in the next couple of minutes for RAW!

Cheers man, I won't be dropping the current one. I have big plans for it. It just takes a lot of writing at times and I sometimes need a break to do something a little more fun - i.e. the first one I did.

Good to here, and my feedback for your show is up like promised.
 
And predictions for yours are up. Waiting for the next show to review. Said the PPV in the thread but you're not quite there yet are you? Still got a week to run first. I'll review RAW when you post it. GCB

Yeah just have to do the go homes shows and I'm done. I'll be doing them in recap form, as I want to write Survivor Series. Thnigs have been packed the last couple of weeks so writing has been hard.
