I'd probably go with Heath Slater then if the cartoons did get voted out. Or maybe Drew McIntyre. Are either of them on the ban list? There aren't any celebrities I can think of who resemble Cloud that much, and/or who I'd want to change my character rep to.

Go with the one man baaaaaaaaaaaaaand!

By the way in case I never told you, love the choice of Shenae Grimes as a photo rep for one of your NPC's. That woman is gorgeous, my second favorite Canadian woman.

I don't mind the cartoon reps and banning people from using them shouldn't be implemented however, if you do choose one, make sure there are ample renders. If not, create your own renders. If you can't be arsed, choose someone else. Simple.

I just wanted to ask if there'll be another mentorship program? There's a lot of new guys now and I just think it was interesting when you guys did it last time

Using The Ultimate Fighter concept would be better than NXT.

Care to explain?

This is looking like the longest RP I've ever written. I'm at 2,000 words, with 1 third of it left to go.

Which either mean I'll get votes because long RP = good RP, or I'll lose votes because tl;dr.

Whatever gets Beard to the tournament victory is what you should post Blade.

I would, but I'm trying to win you see. Something you wouldn't know much about.

 

[Da Prophet]

Blade winning is the least interesting of the four options.

 

[JGlass]

A few things.

1) People complaining about Krypto's rep being a video game alien should find better battles to choose.

2) As far as I'm concerned, the mentorship program was a failure. It produced Izzy Stone and Krypto, but other than that it was a waste of time.

3) Is this talk of creating an NXT/TUF program happening because you think we need one or because you want to see one?

Blade winning is the least interesting of the four options.

Yes, but it's also probably the most logical given the fact he's had a high level of singles success in the past, something none of the other men have had.

That said, I still think Ricky Runn winning would be the most interesting without being too difficult to book.

For me, Ricky's shaving RP was tl;dr. I Theron Daggershield all my votes, using the D20 and shit.

If there WERE to be a mentorship tourney, who would be in it? Grizzly's been here for almost three PPV cycles now and Dustin's been here for longer, so I don't see them as rookies anymore. Zeus, Whitman and Amber don't need it, since they have other (and better) stuff going on. That leaves Sexton, Fallout, Coberer, Adams and Theron, so it's basically the same guys in the CBR, minus Corvus, who's on leave. Also, Remix and Dave are seasoned RP'ers, so if Sexton, Fallout and Theron get something meaningful to do, that leaves NOBODY in the tourney...

 

[Барбоса]

Just shy of 2,700 words (including formatting) for my RP. Happy enough with its contents as it was the next logical step in Barbosa's story this past two rounds but as a world title winning RP, I have little to no faith in it. If read a certain way, a large section could come across as "shooty" although I could certainly entertain accusations of "character assassination" (both towards the Showtime and Barbosa characters) but then what else is a wrestling promo about if not going after your opponent and bigging up yourself?

Didn't help that Ty, JGlass, Doc and Shotaro stole prominent themes from it during the podcast...

Beautiful isn't she? I was glad no one had selected her as a rep for anything yet. Couldn't think of anyone better for the Tiffany character. Maybe it was her time as Degrassi's Darcy, but she just seemed perfect for Tiffany who is an attractive older religious student in her human form and a Paladin of Mystra (religious warrior representing a "good" deity) in the D&D world. I did not have a backup actress/wrestler in mind so I am glad that worked out lol

Who is your favorite?

 

[Blade]

Has there ever been an instance when a World Title match RP was the first posted?

 

[Барбоса]

I like setting precedents.

 

[Con T.]

Hmmm... To post my RP now, or to play the game of chicken with FalKon?

That is the question

High or low? I'll roll a d20.

High

 

[Dagger Dias]

High

You got an 11. Above 10 would have been high. Post the RP, friend! Unless you still want me to look it over for typo's, offer is on the table. I'll be back on for an hour or so after I've walked the dogs before I leave for work.

 

[Blade]

Final count is 3,240 words. Also known as "phoning it in" to Harthan and Ty. But I like the story it tells, and it sets up my characters direction and future angles nicely.

Oh I had a massive crush on Darcy Edwards, that naughty girl.

My favorite Canadian female would be Shay Mitchell. She guest starred on Degrassi once and is famous for playing Emily on Pretty Little Liars and modeling. That woman is amazing.

May just do that mate;

Also, I had to do a google search on Shenae Grimes, Nd can easily say she's the second best looking Canadien

It used to be a rule, no cartoon reps.

Funny enough, when I was making my application I was originally gonna use Gambit as my rep... then I read the no cartoon rule. Then I wondered if Sam Fisher from "Splinter Cell" was still considered too cartoonish... sp I went with Depp to be safe and not piss off creative. Then I saw Sabs, and Krypto, and I forget who else and I was just like WTF!? DAMMIT!!!

I still think about changing it... mostly because all the graphics use the same exact Depp picture every time where he smiles like a nice guy (my fault I suppose, think it was my picture I originally put up, but I figured people would just find any decent picture of him to use...) but when I saw the match graphics for this PPV I thought the Johnny Depp picture chosen this time was awesome and I loved it.

I'd probably go with Heath Slater then if the cartoons did get voted out. Or maybe Drew McIntyre. Are either of them on the ban list? There aren't any celebrities I can think of who resemble Cloud that much, and/or who I'd want to change my character rep to.

Cloud > Drew > Heath

Interesting? 6 of the 8 dropped out... and they excluded the best rookie of them all.... ME! But I'm with JGlass, wasn't that regarded as a monumental failure for the most part?

I would, but I'm trying to win you see. Something you wouldn't know much about.

Harsh, because I like Dustin... but I laughed so hard.

That's just a standard RP for us. Step your game up. It's a PPV for fuck's sake.

We do need the mentorship programme back, so you can teach me your ways, oh Great One.
