Carnage Discussion

[Brad]

Discuss the results and this weeks card.

Want to thank Scott and Manny Vrakes for there help this week. Appricated. Plus everyone who roleplayed.

[The Wretched Nobody]

Well I would like to see what others say before I get too in depth with my feedback... mostly because I just want to see other people's reactions before I go full-tilt geek on this!

The biggest things to me was it was quite an entertaining read, though I believe we'd all do well to do more of our own segments in the future, not that what was done - was bad... but just more for a personal touch to it.  Brad did all he could to ensure this show went down eventfully and that's awesome.  But he runs the fed, we're the guys who make it ours. 

It was an incredibly eventful show - and for a "First show" that's a bit tricky to do... so that does go to show the capabilities of all handlers involved and the staff that put this together.

Glad that the show had something going for everyone, which is what we needed with the first show.

Enjoyed the matches for sure. There was some great action there, especially in the main event.

Was slightly annoyed with the fact that a guy who no-showed is the one who gets the end of the show/main storyline. There were a ton of great RPs and it just seemed disrespectful tbh. We'll see where it goes next week though.

Good show overall.

[The Wretched Nobody]

I agree to an extent... but that's why I say, it's pretty basic math.  Brad did what he could with what he had.  Frankly those who did rp, and of them the ones who rp'ed at a "higher level" as it were... are far more important in use of creating the ranking scene around here in time to come.

So... the more involved we as handlers are... the less he's in a position where he does have to kind of fit in a character to suit a plot.  I can't disagree with you though... I mean people might not praise Stevens (Steve) as the "Best Roleplayer" we have... but the fact is he is really good.  He's reliable, he's willing to job to help other handlers out, and most of all he creates characters that - provided staff follow his Face/Heel outline for them - are quite adaptable.

I think Stevens taking the title would have been interesting and it would have played into his persona of thinking he's worth more than the culmination of the remaining roster.  Though I can only say that with confidence because I'm not as familiar with the Red Cutter persona... whereas most here know that Steve and I do talk almost daily OOC. 

Still I'm left at a loss for "proof" on my idea because on one hand you have a guy I know well and on the other you have someone who idk who his handler even is to be able to have an established concept of what they do.  Still I think it would have worked because if/when the time comes, I know the sort of guy Steve is, he'd gladly drop the B.S. and let whoever was deemed "worthy" by this tournament ultimately take the belt from him.  Nothing says Red Cutter can't be used in exactly the same way though... and especially if he has no one handling him... hell yeah, use the character to drive a story!  If he has no handler - he has no one to complain when the "Real Champion" goes and stomps him to get his rightful strap! lol

As it stands, the Red Cutter situation seems like a work, of course in e-fedding it's ALL a work, but I mean it in the sense that... I wondered if his handler (Whose identity idk as of the time I write this.) may be one of our known guys here and just didn't get at it this week.  Granted... we should be giving active angles to active handlers... but with just 1 show down... it's kind of hard to know who'll be doing what until we get to see a little more.

I think the most paramount thing this week is despite storylines we really sincerely got a good view of who to watch out for!  Things change in e-fedding, overnight people's real lives can cost us a character and totally cause dismay... still I believe all the handlers that rp'ed this week did a fine job of staking their claims in WWG... and in this game once you come out and make it known you're willing to do the rp work... gaining ground and earning success is really just a matter of time and self-improvement.

I loved the show. Really enjoyed the fact that when I was reading down it I realized I was walking into an angle with Wretched. This is already enjoyable for me.

[MannyVrakas]

Yeah like most people have said, angles and stories are developing right from the start. Nothing's worse than a match with no story or stakes, and the show did a great job of establishing motivations for each character. Pumped for the tournament, were developing a nice upper and under card.

And I'd agree that more promos should be written by handlers for that personal touch, as long as other characters are not misused. Excited to see where this Cutter story goes
