Michael Winters just took out Barbosa. How embarrassing.

What are you talking about? That was Steamboat Ricky.

Winters had the rep first, plus being taken out by Ricky isn't as embarrassing.

We'll compromise, call him Steamboat Winters.

Do you point your thumbs at yourself? You may
have been hacked.

I'm not better than Kurt Angle. If it can happen to him, what's to stop it from happening to me?

I used to consistently post 10k word RPs...

The creative team must've loved you for it.

I already have my All-Stars character, but
someone should use Missingno...

As in the Pokemon??? I'm rather going to stick to "Tranny" Tanya Kaufmann, intergender champion of the world.

 

[ABMorales787]

Naaaaah, you put me on the wrong poster. I don't know if that's better or worse than not being on the poster at all

If it's any consolation, I put myself in the wrong poster too.

I got bored, so I decided to make a graphic bracket. I'll update as we go along. Credit to Killjoy of course for making the actual Gold Rush logo.

 

[Bernkastel]

The fact that the tournament is going to be randomized kills the potential for a Zeus vs DC match for the second round, and that makes me a sad panda.

False. I had to edit my Lethal Lottery RP down significantly because when I tried to post it, it told me I exceeded the maximum character count or something. Think it was something like 4,000 or something. Not sure.



I may be late but I'd love to look it over for you.

That was the maximum characters allowed in one post by the site. If need be you can post a two parter, but they are usually frowned upon.

What Yaz said. There is definitely no word limit on RPs.

Looking good, Mr. Amphibian.

I don't understand... if Zeus & D.C win their respective matches, they will be facing off in the 2nd round. The randomisation of the tournament is already done - we're relying on the brackets to make our matches from now on.

 

[ABMorales787]

But what if Krypto and I win?




Yeah, I know. Krypto's a stretch.

 

[Viola Moonlight]

I said if... I'm not counting out a Matt Tastic win... lolololololololololololol... couldn't say that with a straight face.

I'm kidding, KJ

Fun Fact: Should Vega pass MD 93, AS 68 & AF 27, he will officially become the longest reigning Mayhem champion in history, surpassing Alex Bowen's insane record.

Note: I'm measuring in rounds, not dates/days/shows/etc. Thus far, Alex Bowen has successfully defended the title for 19 rounds before losing. This next round will be Vega's 18th round as champion.

Do we have a decision on if the interim champions during the mayhem title scramble matches will count as official reigns? I've always found it weird that one scramble match counts as official reigns and the one I was in didn't.

 

[Viola Moonlight]

I've only transferred the data that currently exists over from the title history thread to the new one. I can only remember one Mayhem Championship Scramble (KC II) so I edited in those title reigns as "official" for the time being. When I go do the serious digging through every single WZCW show ever produced (you read that right), I'll figure out what the hell happened and make an executive decision.

The guy who did the initial title history didn't cover everything properly - he didn't read through Redemption (2010) where Killjoy, Scott Hammond & John Smith/Anita Dick tussled over the title due to the 24/7 rule.

... so basically, Vega may not be the 30th champion but the rest still counts.

 

[Da Prophet]

Redemption last year had a scramble match for the Mayhem Championship. The only reason I care is because I scored the first pinfall in that match and the idea of being a two time champion is something I'd like.

 

[Viola Moonlight]

Seems fair enough... although removing every 'interim' champion as an official title reign just to remove Doug Crashin from the record books feels like its worth the hassle.

That's just silly.

Heh. Anita Dick. Classic.

Nice reference. Classic episode. The best part is when they meet Jimmy the "Don't hold onto a large magnet while someone else uses a fan nearby Falcon"

Hey folks The Podcast is TONIGHT at midnight UK/7pm Eastern

Our very special guest is a member of creative whose name contains the letter 'K' so that narrows it down somewhat


HYPEHYPEHYPE!

 

[FlexAmerican Dynamite]

Yeah, I know. Krypto's a stretch.

Hey Tastic, fuck you.

Dr. Zeus will win until Kurtesy/Sandy screws him over in the quarter finals

 

[Kermit]

Looking good, Mr. Amphibian.

Thanks, Boss!

I think he is referring to a little note I added at the end of the card preview that suggested each round would be a random draw.. I may have been using outdated information when I wrote that. That's what I get for taking a 3 day vacation during tournament discussions.

Looks quite awesome.

Cheers Dagger!

 

[Shotaro]

Our Special Guest tonight has just informed me that he plans to call out a Rival LIVE on AIR!!

You do not want to miss it folks

Also in keeping with teasing about who it is I will reveal that their name does NOT include the letter 'Y'...

 

[FunKay the Inevitable]

What can I say I'm swerving and actually still a part of creative...wait my name has a "y" in it doesn't it? Oh sonofa...

 

[Thriller Ant]

Heh. Anita Dick. Classic.
