WZCW Discussion Thread

[TheRealDC]

This comment rather annoyed me quite a bit... because I take serious offense to anyone even implying that I don't care about what the Mayhem title can/should/could mean. Personally, I feel I've defended this championship with as much heart and effort as Showtime has defended his World Title and then in winning it back. I love being Mayhem Champion. What I've said in RPs as Vega about the Mayhem Title are feelings I truly have... and that is that I want to make the Mayhem Championship the hardest title to win in this fed. The tournament would have given me a chance to show that I could roll with the big boys.

Like I said before, it's all kind of irrelevant now... because I'm not very upset about being excluded anymore. I trust in what JGlass has said thus far, and for as long as I've been a part of this fed, I've seen J to be a pretty honest & straight forward guy.

Not at all meant to be a direct shot at any champion. Just stating how focus turns away from championships that aren't the world heavyweight. And it's a double edged sword, not you in particular, but there have been champions (I'm sure there've been some here before) that basically only hold the title to climb up the ladder and that's all it's good for. Obviously you personally have managed to supersede your own rank.

As a champion if encourage you to submit promos to the show challenging any and all. Make a 24hr rule for yourself, do whatever it takes to make it a primary focus. Refuse to let it burden you, or vacate/retire it. I had the lowest billed title, and I hustled that thing all the way to a main event over a world champion's match. You already have a leg up on the people TRYING to become a champion. Because again at the end of the day, only one person will win.

I get the frustration, but the attention is on you, you just have to do something more with it.

I think this upcoming cycle of shows could be my biggest one yet.

So I'm thinking about this as a new theme. What do you guys think?

That seems like a preference only you can answer.

 

[Find'er Woo'er Ryder]

I kinda like remix's character. I think it's a lot like dr. Zeus though.

Dr Coberer predates Zeus by a year. The RP's in poem form because I wrote it for shits and giggles and sent it to him.

 

[Dirk]

Bonus points for crowbarring "It's Cobererin' time" in there somewhere.

 

[Find'er Woo'er Ryder]

I didn't read the sample...just similar characters

I think it's very different. Part of what that I think will come in the backstory is what made Zeus what he is, and what I assume will make Coberer different.

Though the idea of a Zeus/Coberer team is utterly fascinating...

 

[ABMorales787]

Zeus rhymes and wouldn't be out of place in a horror flick. Corberer wouldn't be out of place in an X-Men comic.

 

[Remix]

I'm going to take that as a compliment.

 

[Blade]

So, if a complete newbie, or someone like Dave (an RPer on a similar level to me that isn't a complete cunt) signed up with Dr Coberer you'd still be against letting him in?

I'm not against it, I just think some aspects of the character have to be toned back.

I miss the Smashing Pumpkins. That was you, right?

 

[TheRealDC]

Riddle me this, if someone comes to the ring and says, "I need a doctor!"... Whose music hits?

 

[Remix]

Zeus'. He's the (former) MD, Coberer has a PhD.

See I enjoy that.

If we're doing the alignment chart, Coberber is chaotic evil, and Zeus is lawful evil.

I've thought of four people would make an interesting tag team;

Coberber
Brother Mason Westhoff
Chris KO
(Eventually, pending how things went) Kurtesy.

Granted a tag team may not be the best call for me, as I have a lot to prove still. But still, can't help but dangle the idea in my mind

 

[Remix]

Zeus plus Ben Hoss would be interesting. He's the ultimate True Neutral, plus you get to play around with two fun NPCs in Schwarz and Alicia.

 

[Con T.]

A forum search yields nothing; is there a profile?

 

[Remix]

Not a current one, though I did send one to Creative. An old version of his character sheet (pre STA) is used for the demonstration in the App thread.

The long and short of it was he's a complete dumbass monster face/heel. Loves wrestling and his sister but not much more of a personality. He got broken by Wunderbar and turned into more of a monster than he already was. Think someone the size of Big Show with the build of Big E Langston with a single minded focus on destroying his opponent's arm and that's what Hoss became.

The NPCs are Alicia, who has cared for Hoss for years and pretty much got seduced by Schwarz who by the end of my Reese run got characterised as being a manipulative bitch who portrays herself as exactly what my PCs need for her own gain.

 

[Richard Blonoff]

Hoss was always one I liked.

 

[Bernkastel]

Really? I liked Stark and Wunderbar. Could never get into Hoss or Reese.

 

[Remix]

I liked the RP I wrote for the open challenge. Wunderbar cuts a Wunderbar promo... Zoom out... he's being held over a giant's head, drop the mic to demonstrate his size. Simple but awesome.

Really? I liked Stark and Wunderbar. Could never get into Hoss or Reese.

I think I've written a grand total of 4 Hoss RPs. 1 sample, 2 on another site and the open challenge, which was a Wunderbar promo. There's not much TO get into on any level.

If there's one problem with him it's that he's a satellite character, even in his own RPs. His sample and first GNW promos were both Alicia centred. The second GNW was Sascha bringing him into the STA and asking Alicia to go to dinner with her to... work out the details. The OC promo was Wunderbar's through and through.

 

[Bernkastel]

Is it strange that I've been putting more focus into my All Stars character - which is still months away - instead of on the Tournament - which is like next week? Antone else have this problem?

 

[GI Cake]

Nobody will ever be as hardcore as Chris Jones was.

There's a Chris Jones who works the local indie circuit here in South Florida.

Does he tie random men to chairs and torture them for no reason?

By "torture" you mean force fans who paid $6 to watch him do splashes from the second rope? Sure.
