Super Stan Posted October 22, 2015 Report Share Posted October 22, 2015 Big fan of anything having to do with logos/graphics. Any little doodad to spice up the writing of a show is a bonus. The more creative the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Been a bit slow of the marks this week, I should have this weeks shows up by Tuesday. Would be Sunday but off to see the NFL at Wembley on Sunday afternoon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 There's a good chance I will get a week or so behind on my shows as I'm feeling like now would be a good time to take a little break. I've reached kind of the end of "chapter 1" in my plans now with the breakup of The Texas Dynasty (Killer Khan getting rid of the old guard was kind of like the Prologue) and I want to just take some time off of writing my shows (I usually write a little every day) and let myself recharge a bit.

Just an odd question from this, are you going to continue with your Mascaras dates on 10/30 - Southwest & 10/31 - Southwest still then? Also, I posted on the November post, and if the new guy takes IWF, he would take over November's freelance booking. Are we going with this as we approach the new month?

goc Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Yes I'm still going to use him on those dates I'm not going to skip a week in my booking I'm just going to be late in posting. He just won a shot at the Southwest Heavyweight Title for the show on the 30th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexstar Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Honestly, if I get in officially and all that, I'd almost PayPal someone else 9.99 to do the freelance booking for November Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Be careful what you say before someone tries to get that $9.99 from you. Grimmas had the November booking duties and if you want to handle them then precedent would state they are yours. Of course be aware that gobbling up all the freelancers for the month probably won't make you popular (and that the dates already set/requested need to be honored) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexstar Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I have no issue with that. Mr. Mouran won't pay for freelancers anyway. I'm a lazy man but could handle booking freelancers since that's the precedent and easiest way to roll, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dexstar Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 I'll get the November freelance stuff rolling here in the next couple days. Couple outstanding questions I am not sure where to find the definitive answer to: - Announcers Don't seem to be listed under rosters unless it's a wrestler/announcer combo - I was going to use Detroit Icon Bill Bonds as a studio host and then the .. unique .. Lord Athol Layton as the main TV guy if that's all acceptable Grimmas was organizing that Canadian joint show on 11/26 ... but it seems off since I don't see build for it anywhere. Correct?

LowBlowPodcast Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 As long as the guys were active in 1983-84, it should be okay. In regards to the Canada show, with your movement to Detroit, it would be safe to assume it is off... but I am sure someone else could pick it up if needed.

dexstar Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Yeah I don't have any particular interest in organizing that show myself but if people were counting on it or guys from IWF for it I'd help out anyway possible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 That would require multiple Canadian promotions. I thought Milt Arvuskin was an announcer in Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dexstar Posted October 24, 2015 Report Share Posted October 24, 2015 Valid point about Canada. I've come across a few different announcers in Detroit. I like Layton for some reason so wanted to go with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My hiatus lasted a little longer than anticipated but with my 2 shows posted today that gets me into November at least and hopefully by the end of the weekend I'll have another week of shows posted and be able to try and get caught up on reading and commenting on everyone else's stuff.

rainmakerrtv Posted November 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2015 I'm still a bit behind, need to get out this week's shows (hopefully will have those done by the end of the weekend) but have just posted last week's AWA TV and house show. Some big things happening at that house show, so check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawho5 Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 I have one more show written, which puts me at the 25th of November. After that I'm finished. I've got a pretty stacked roster so it might be a good idea to draft off of it instead of letting it sit there. I have a master list of dates that the wrestlers will be working in other promotions I can copy and paste from just to keep things in order.

From the looks around here, things haven't been to hopping as of late. I know I am booked up through the 17th of December. I hate to say we need to do another game of who is in and who isn't but production has definitely gone down over the past two weeks. Not a good thing with you dropping by any means.

goc Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 I don't think it's time to do another who is in and who isn't by any means. Not without anyone looking to come in and take over the dead promotions we already have sitting there. Just keep posting your own shows and hope the guys who have wandered off like Jesse come back and start posting shows again (like he's done twice) I feel like getting overly worried about how much or how little other people are posting is one of the things driving people out of the game and I don't get it. If you like writing your shows what does it matter if someone else isn't posting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 We've put far too much emphasis on people sticking to a deadline and acting like we MUST push people out for getting behind to the point where if someone loses interest they're afraid to even take a break and instead just quit. I know dawho was losing interest and tried to encourage him to just take a break but due to some silly feeling like he's obligated to everyone else to post a show now we lose a writer altogether instead of just letting someone go off for a while and recharge. It's not like people are beating down the doors trying to get into this game. Taking a break for a few weeks like I've done or even a month or two like Boon had to do is far better than dropping out altogether. It's not "screwing over" the rest of the people in this game to stop posting shows so you can stay interested because dropping out and losing a writer and a promotion is far worse than a few weeks not posting shows.

LowBlowPodcast Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 I am not worried about it, but if we are going to continue to let talent sit out there like a Barry Windham or Bret Hart or Ricky Steamboat and not be used, I am under the impression something needs to change in that sense. I have no problem with us continuing to post shows, these promotions in real life all died. No question about it. Some quick some long, but they all died. It is interesting to see who will survive and who's in for the long haul. I love writing shows. It can't be said that I don't put max effort into putting out a consistent and fun to read product. But in order for that to continue, I may speak for myself, but I would definitely like to work with different talents. That's being hindered with the current idea of having a roster sit with some great talents unavailable to be used. This idea of recharge is fine and all, I am good with it, but a dead promotion, is a dead promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goc Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 You can still make trades with the dead promotions by going through Grimmas, we've already addressed that. We also said we were NOT going to draft out the dead promotions any more and if we start to try and change the rules AGAIN I'm just going to quit and start writing my shows in the main Armchair Booking folder where I don't have to constantly worry about never ending drama over trying to change rules that have already been decided on.
