Matches: Craig & Lits Promos: Craig, Matt, Lits & Crys Congratulations to all the winners, commiserations to those that didn't win. Couple of notes this week: Couple of no-shows, majority addressed in a thread, which is good to see. I'm implementing a new policy, which probably has been unofficial but will now pass into FIW lore - If all parties no show in a match, it's cancelled. If it's a title match, it's declared vacant and we'll hold a match for it the week after. I've only just realised where I've heard the name Helena Handbasket before FIW. Chandler's Dad. Unbelievable. Been annoying me for months. I do pronounce it differently to you North Americans. For me the second 'e' is a long sound verging on an 'ay'. As usual if you've got any storyline or match ideas, get in touch. Similarly not much by the way of judging due to difficulties for some, I've sent a PM out to a couple of people who I think might be interested but if you are interesting in becoming a regular judge, shoot me a PM over. I won't be addressing any OOC issues that may or may not have taken place this week in this thread. If you want to chat about it seperately, hit me up on PM. Thoughts on the show this week? Mostly that Lita's matches are better than mine I imagine...

I expected one result, didn't expect the rest. I'll give further feedback later; my lady took me to the Smackdown event here in San Diego. |

On one hand, I'm a little frustrated I lost to something a hair above a deadline bomb, but on the other hand it's not like I put forth a lot of effort. And I feel like that was well-represented in the result, though, si I'm not complaining. I think we could've had a lot of fun if there was more back and forth, so I guess in the end I'm more upset about the missed opportunity. I'm glad Adam won. He deserves it. 100%, no sass, no "I'm being a good loser." I'm just glad he won. Both of these things pale in comparison to the fact that an idea I had months ago back when I was still GM is coming to fruition. All hail the Triple Crown. <3 |

Lots of good stuff this week. Totally stoked about the new belt baby! Always nice to see changes and things moved about every so often to keep things fresh. Congrats to the winners and kudos to the folks that didn't. There were a couple of surprises for me, some not so much, but all highly enjoyable! Not much else to say except that in my neck of the woods "There's a hurricane comin' through!" Sadly it is not named Helms, is not on a Hurricycle and does not come with Molly Holly dressed as a super hero ![]() Peace and love, Rob. |

This is why I'm an Eric Chucci guy. I thought the show was great. So great in fact that I'm actually posting in the feedback thread! I like how this DeadlockeD series is playing out. There are so many stories woven into the grand scheme. April dropping that bomb on Helena came as a surprise to both of us, and I'm so glad that Lita had the idea. This is going to add an awesome layer to Helena's bid for the Hellcat championship for sure, and I'm very much excited to see where this goes. The Blonds are still in the hunt. Phew! I'm glad Craig and others want to see my friends Hansel and Paris hover around the tag team titles. It feels good to get that kind of recognition, plus I think that given time the Suicide Blonds are going to be outstanding characters here in FIW. I mean, just look at my sexy new sig! |

Aw. First official loss. Oh well, bound to happen and honestly I'm a little relieved it did. The longer you go undefeated the more pressure there is to keep it that way. It's a game, but sometimes it can take its toll in areas. lol So yeah, not upset. And the match was well written too to that's the icing. ![]() Still wouldn't mind seeing something between Marilyn and Courtney. Unless the offer's been rejected. |

So the big news is obviously the formation of the Triple Crown, which was indeed a Wight idea and something I've been hoping to be able to follow on with. Deadlock seemed like as good a time as any especially as we've got a face-heel dynamic in the top two Champions. I mentioned it to Steve, had it been Jack Manson Jr. and Darian Gray then the situation would have changed and plans would have been moved back. Promos, promos, promos. Another week with very few - get them in. Especially if you didn't rp or didn't rp as much as you'd have liked. Perfect opportunity to get the story out there. Big welcome back to both Rob and Mars. |

Sorry this feedback took so long! I'm stunned that all of my characters won their matches. I really expected the Sharks to lose. Even though I wasn't able to get anything going for Kim in the thread with Darian and Eversol, Matt and Bleak write those characters so well. I didn't even really know what I was doing with the Sharks this week. I just started writing. Brittany's win was a relief because I know that one really could have gone either way. The Crystal character is evolving nicely. Relieved as heck that Johnny retained his title. When I got the segment from Craig about the Triple Crown, I instantly worried about Johnny missing out on a huge opportunity. It's gonna be tough holding onto the International title all the way to Deadlock but I am bound and determined. And it's just gonna get harder if he makes it into the Triple Crown Match. My God I want that stinking belt! Glad to see the Suicide Blonds win this week. I love the Lords of Salem (Jericho Cruz in particularly) but the Suicide Blonds were so good this week and I can really see them doing great things. They have a very basic gimmick but it's done so remarkably well and I love that Adam really embraces the gimmick. Those are the kinds of gimmicks I love. Very obvious but very committed. Those types of characters are super easy to book and super easy to write for. I had fun writing most of the Hellcats Series Match. - I was torn on Trianna vs. Olivia. Trianna had promptness and presentation on her side but the content was kinda light. Olivia had content on her side but promptness and presentation were severely lacking. Not knocking either handler, but just giving some honest feedback on things to improve upon to make these two characters stand-outs. It honestly wouldn't take a lot of work for either one to achieve this. - I love Helena Handbasket so much. I just feel that character whenever I read her. Adam's passion for her is infectious in his writing and I hope he can keep up that level of passion for her. I wish I had advice for the Shaelin character. I really like her and I think she's got a unique presence in the Hellcats Division. I guess the only thing I can think of is that for some reason she feels so disconnected from the division. I don't really know how to suggest to fix that. - Yuki was lucky to be against Marilyn this week. I don't mean to potentially sour a victory for you, but Yuki's stuff was even more throwaway this week than usual and I think you know that. She feels like an afterthought to me and I can't really take her into account when she's written that way. Marilyn just needs to be RPed. She's a great character and Hayden is a fantastic writer. If she'd just make an appearance she'd probably win some match quite easily, to be honest. |

Popping back in to mention that I don't feel like I'm doing the concept of Trianna justice somehow, and that's part of my lackluster showing with her. I wanted her to say so much more in that RP and I'm just having a hard time translating her from my brain to the page. Might have to ditch her after her role in this tourney is over. Shame. I love her rep so much. |

I know that feeling, Wight. I'm feeling similarly with my new characters. For what its worth, I really enjoy the Lords of Salem and think maybe you need to recognise that we don't know whats in your head and are pleased with what is making its way to the page. |

Thanks, mate. I'm going to attempt to redouble my efforts this week. Maybe I can find the alchemy in-between the words that I feel like I'm lacking. |

Generally, when I create a new character I find an appropriate entrance theme for them and try and help base their personality with that. Then listen to something else, if a similar feeling doesn't click I tend to drop the idea. Except in the case of Crystal, was eager to get going here. It's why there's so many quirks packed into her with some being overlooked for weeks. Courtney was a real last minute edition. Like before I posted the app last minute. I realized Crystal wouldn't make a good promo person given her background. So I guess the moral of that story is...I think my cat got me good in the face. lol |

I have a little bit of that theme song eagerness going on when conceptualizing characters. I'll throw an application up just because I feel like I have the perfect theme song/character concept combo. They get accepted, by the good graces of curiosity it would seem, and then I'm sitting there with an empty dialog box in front of me hours before the deadline asking myself, "okay now what?". Clearly didn't think that one through.*cough*Joe Tua*cough* On the other hand, sometimes I feel like everything about a character I've come up with is solid save for the entrance music, and it honestly bothers me. I hate it when I have to settle for something that isn't perfect. Case in point, the Suicide Blonds. Their original theme songs (because they also each had their own) were just fillers because I was still very much on the hunt for something that had a better fit. Thankfully, I've since found something that I'm really quite happy with. I have characters on 2K14 (because I'm so ghetto like that) who are using in-game entrance music because I haven't found the best song for them. I'm clearly quite picky when it comes to music. I honestly feel like if the entrance music doesn't help broadcast who your character is then it's just white noise while they walk to the ring. Even lyrics. If the lyrics seem to have nothing to do with the character then it's all just a waste. Am I the only one who's so picky about music? |

Nope! I would say 100% that music holds up my applications and lends itself to more character-related dissatisfaction than anything else for me. Finishers come a close second. |

Entrances for me. I could quite happily sit there and come up with music, movelists, gimmicks, not a problem but try to write an entrance and it'll be about three weeks before I've even come close to something I'm happy with. In the past I inevitably end up using an old entrance, just updated. It's funny, I did exactly the same thing as Adam talks about with Xenia. I just sat there and stared at a blank Word document and all that's going through my head is "you didn't think this through, did you?" so I just imagined what she should say and funnily enough Wight said the same thing when he sent me feedback, that she said what she should have said. |

I don't mean for Yuki to be an afterthought as you put it Lita.I got busy this week and was drawing a blank for both of my guys this week.I'm sorry i sucked major a$$ this week but i hope i can do or find something that can get them back on track.Kana did wear face paint before.... but i don't want to go down that road at least not yet.I'm going to think of something to do for both Kira and Yuki and i'm going to try and make sure they both get dome good stuff in.I'll try something for kira and yuki this week and see if it works. |
