The restart of RFW...

[RF Godfather]

Would anyone want to participate once again in a RF.Net Roleplay Wrestling Federation but unlike last time I propose utilizing real wrestlers. I got the ok from PanterA so I would like to see how many people would be interested in this before I start anything.

Lulu and Dark Hippie, it is cool but due to people losing interest it ended quickly. I was the reigning RFW World Heavyweight Champion btw. You can be whoever you want.

Hosp Gary, well yes you can start a stable and talk all the smack you want. It's a roleplay federation but this time it will involved real wrestlers (ie Triple H, Kane, Austin). Whoever can pull the best promo will eventually win the decision. Fighting with words and the decisions are decided by the Booking Committee (myself and PanterA if I can get him to help).

OK so it looks like we have 3 members possibly... I'm still waiting for at least 10 members before I mention the rules, set up matches, etc.

Thank you for those who show some interest in this latest venture of mine. I have an itching to use my "power of my words" to add more fun to the board but this time as Vince or Flair at the top of the pecking order.

holy crap on a crossant, this is gonna rock!! but i think it'd be better if we made up people. I mean we can't imitate real guys, we'll never get it right cause we can't help but put some of oursleves in them.

can i be Kane's nemesis, "the wheelchair"? jk

Only because your punk-ass never got in the ring with The Smooth Operator, Max "I was never pinned" Silk.

A word of warning. Putting together a good promo takes time. I almost quit last time because it was a lot of effort to come up with a good storyline for my character and my match 2-3 times a week. In fact, in the beginning I thought we had to post every day, which REALLY drained me. Don't go into this unless you have the time to create good promos.

Also, I remember getting frustrated when I'd put together what I thougt was a really funny and creative post and nobody would read it. If you get involoved in this, prepare to have your post viewed by only the handful of people involved in the RFW.

And one last thing. Whomever is running this (I assume it'll be RonFez MArk) is the equivalent of Vince McMahon. He or she has the final say on where a character goes, who wins and loses, etc. Those who join the league must accept that. I had a long-term idea for my character, and it got changed. I fully understood why it had to be done, but it still disappointed me. Don't take anything out on the commishioner. He or she is doing a lot of work, and tries to make the best decisions. PanterA sucked at it, but oh well.

(Just kidding, PanterA. You were a terrific commishioner and very responsive to everyone's concerns.)

RonFez Mark, I'll have to think about this. I know if we used real wrestlers, I'd be less inclined to join. I take pride in my creativity and originality (though what's really original in wrestling, anyway), and I think I'd lose that if I tried to be someone "real". I'll keep checking this thread to see what's going on, and I'll let you know soon.
I do owe Tazz a major ass-kicking, though. ;)


Can't we all just get along?
