Card Results 2009

The scorecards are in, and the survey says we have two more winners. And two more great matches in the books.

Soooooo.... who won? I guess it's time to find out.

[/hr]



DETAILS: The Superstar Champion has once again offered to put his title on the line in the second round of the King of the Cage, just as he did in the first round against Haley. Once again, however, he is requiring that his opponent, Cian Maccormack, offer something of value in exchange should he lose. Will Cian accept? Does he even WANT the Superstar Championship, knowing that the belt may only be defended in Federation X? I guess we'll find out. Now, which match did these two draw?

The Playground Pickup Match – right in the heart of the area we bought was one of those awesome old-school outdoor basketball courts. You know the kind - completely enclosed by a chain-link fence, bare rims, metal backboards. This match is a friendly game of 21 - with no whistle-blower. That’s right. Outside of the cage will be a score-keeper – that’s it. There are NO fouls in this basketball game. So, if you can knock your opponent out long enough to score 21 points – you’re gold.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Mr. Francis I. Cartier: The results for this one are easy to write. Not because it’s an easy choice however. It’s easy to write up because I don’t have to worry about things like pointing out mistakes or critiquing the works of two of the best RPers in the game. In my opinion.

Excellent work by both men, I think had Cian not left a few posts on the table this would have been a tougher decision. Until the post separation made all the difference in this one I had Cian slightly leading in points. But giving Jason the extra posts was a huge mistake and Jason capitalizes.

The winner and first to advance to the final 4 Jason Storm.

Krusher: This match is one that had a lot of potential, but unfortunately much of that potential went unrealized, mainly due to a lack of interaction. The real life schedules of the two competitors never quite matched up, leaving the two of them posting off of themselves as often as they posted from each other. It was nobody’s fault, it’s just one of those things that happens. But in an interactive game, lack of interaction tends to have a negative effect, if not on the story itself, then on the story-tellers. It seemed that both men suffered a bit from not having the back-and-forth which would have taken a really good match and turned it into a great one.

That said, the match was interesting, with both writers doing their part to push it along in a satisfying way. Storm embraced the theme of the round early, going “Out of the Box” and leaving the basketball court behind, taking the fight pretty much over the entire five block area the Powerbase purchased. Cian rolled with things well, but at times his writing became a bit wordy, as if he were having trouble formulating ideas and felt the need to flesh his posts out with extra description. On my scorecard, Storm had a small lead at the end of day one which he stretched out through days two and three as he outposted Cian 5 to 3. Cian gives it his best shot but can’t overcome the two post lead, giving Storm the win.

WINNER: Jason Storm

DETAILS: The blood in this match is already bad. These two have been aiming at each other for a while, and now, they're going to get a shot to either settle their differences or make them that much worse. Which match did the old Fed X Randomizer give them?

Cell Block Match – These two men have an entire empty cell block in the local abandoned prison to use as their personal playground. The main gate of Cell Block A will be locked behind the men, but all the individual cell doors will be open. Fight anywhere inside the block – any of the cells, the big common area between the cells, go wild. SOMEWHERE inside that cell block is a key. Find it and unlock the main cell block gate to let yourself out to win. Oh, in their hurry to leave, the guards might possibly have dropped their billy clubs, mace canisters, tear gas grenades, even key rings with keys that WON’T open the gate. Use whatever you can find to beat each other down. But only escaping from the Cell Block will earn you the victory.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Cedrick Caesar: Man what a match.. I had Real Life come in the way of it... and so I read it all in one sitting... and all I can say is.. Man what a fricking match! Thank GOD it was an interesting read and not a ton of fluff. Both men showed me why they were each 'The One'.. but there has to be a winner so let's move on shall we? Cons.. at the beginning I felt like Rude was pressing just a bit.. the man had a couple places in there where I thought Phil Stone had written a line or two for him... But once he got rolling.. it flowed. Carnage on the other hand came Strong with it.. but I felt the big man slowed down a bit at the end. Not coasting.. Just damm tired of so many posts in three days. Out of every match I have read so far however I have to say these two followed each other and moved the match along better than anything I have seen yet. Their posts flowed from one to the other and back again pretty seamlessly. All in all one of those matches it was fun to read and try to judge. The winner in this bitch of a match? Rude.. have to say however I loved the resurgence of Carnage in this event. Congrats to Rude for the win and Carnage for a great showing.

Krusher: Both of these men were impressive in round one, and believe it or not, they both outdid themselves in round two. Carnage has really risen to the challenge during this tournament, putting out a truly impressive effort through two rounds.

Both Rude and Carnage started off with pretty big reveals and the match progressed at a pretty quick pace with each man pulling out at least one surprise in almost every post. More than once I found myself reluctant to stop reading long enough to score a post before moving on to the next. This was one of those rare WOW matches and if you haven't read it, stop what you're doing and go. The continuity was good, with only a few minor no-sells on either side. There was plenty of action from both sides and the characters and NPC's brought in to flesh the story out all interacted very well. The difference on my scorecard came down to story-telling, and while both men did admirably with pushing the story along and pulling it in new and unexpected directions, Rude did a masterful job of blending all the elements together and taking the story exactly where he wanted it. Carnage has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of with the job he did. I felt his writing was even better this week than last, but Rude was better this week as well, and in the end, Johnny finds a way to pull off the win against a very strong effort by Carnage.


WINNER: Johnny Rude

DETAILS: Back Alley Brawl First Blood Match – Two of the old tenements standing in the middle of the area we bought have a long, wide alley running between them. We’ve scraped it clean and brought in big dumpsters to block one end and a stack of wrecked cars to block off the other end. Each competitor will enter from one of the abandoned tenements – feel free to use any of the apartments as your locker room – if you don’t mind the rats. Once both men are in the alley, the doors will close and lock. To win – you have to make your opponent bleed. Simple, right?

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl: This one was fun. From Alan and Marlowe trying to top each other with helping out people to Grayson playing both sides, The Jewish Gangsters and Captain All That in the role of "Rev Al" (I hope he sees it). The selling was good and the match was a fun read. The thing that bothered me was the lack of a match till the last post. The match seemed to me more about Aaron setting up Alan and stalling the match.

That is fine, but at the end of the day it's a "wrestling event." I thought Alan rolled well through all the stuff, spinning it in clever ways and that got him the win. This was not an easy call, but with a one post lead and a lack of a “match” I have to give Alan the victory.

Cedrick Caesar : Due to a death in the family, Cedrick did not do a write up, but his decision was Alan Scott in an excellent match.

WINNER: Alan Scott

DETAILS: Abandoned Car Factory Best Two of Three Falls Match – Part of the chunk of downtown Detroit we bought was an abandoned car factory. Most of the machinery is still inside – at least the chunks of it that were too heavy to steal. We took some of the leftover flat iron and cut it into two inch wide strips, then used heavy rivets to fashion those strips into a huge cage. That cage is set up inside one of the assembly rooms in the auto plant – and we didn’t remove any of those big, heavy hunks of machinery. Oh, and we didn’t bring a ring to Detroit. This match is just two men, a referee, a flat-iron cage, a concrete floor and several big hunks of industrial steel machinery. Score two pin-falls or submissions to win the match.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl: The match was good. I think both men did well juggling all the stories and keeping the match moving at a good pace. Geno’s struggle with balancing his relationship with old friend Storm versus his wife and stablemates was handled well, and Crowe’s storylines with Haley’s sister Isabel and his own relationship with Storm were as well.

I think the difference comes down to the match itself. Both men did a great job telling the story and selling each other, but Geno’s match action was just better, giving him the win. As a side note I think the GPS is starting to wear a little thin. Crowe did well - a lot better than round one. I hope he keeps it up as Fed X needs active guys.


Mr. Francis I. Cartier: Excellent match and great read done by both men. This match had tons and tons of action it. I love me some good ring action, this had that and then some. The only thing that kinda confused me about this match was the Cage part. Was it a cage or wasn't it. It seemed both men confused me with this as it seemed to me there was a cage in the match then there would not be one. Regardless since both did it I could take away from scoring for it but for what purpose. Since it was consistent I'll just mark it down as me and how I read it.

I do feel that one man controlled the tempo of this match more than the other. Both brought new ideas to the board, but one did so more often and left the other to down play it or counter. This match made a lot more sense to me and for the most part was more realistic than some of the others I've read. And what I mean by that is the survivability of it all. Some tend to get to graphically violent in matches of this type and loose the realism. Neither did in my opinion for this match.

In the end I chose my winner of who controlled the match better. As they both were dead even in most of the other areas. My choice of winner and next round entrant, Genocide.


WINNER: Genocide

DETAILS:As the only Champion not in the King of the Cage Tournament, The Sack Man becomes the de facto “Face (?!?!?) of the Federation” – at least until some of the other Fed X Champions manage to get themselves eliminated from the competition. His number one challenger for the Harbinger Championship is brand new partner of Aaron Action, Rico Annex. This match is going to be A Pit and Ladder Match. To win, you have to climb the ladder and grab the Pit Control. Press the big red button on the Pit Control, and – you guessed it – a Pit opens up in the center of the ring, six feet by six feet, four feet deep. In the pit is The Harbinger Championship Belt – and some snakes. Winner is the one who can get the belt out of the pit without getting bitten. But then again, we wouldn’t REALLY use poisonous snakes, right?

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

RP JUDGE: Richard Grayson

SIM RULES: Sim your opponent 5 times usingANY match type. All matches to be simmed on the 10th, unless you are double booked.

WINNER: The Sack Man posts well against a no-showing Rico Annex. Thanks for the effort, Sackie, and thanks to Battlestone for giving our Harbinger Champion a post to work with.

FINISHING RIGHTS: The Sack Man

DETAILS: Where to start? Chance left The HOT Girls, stating that she needed some time to herself. She also wants Eve to open her eyes to the fact that the fans don’t care about her. Eve believes that someone is forcing Chance to leave in an attempt to destroy The HOT Girls. But who has the motive and the means to do so? Holland, a former Stablemate of The two beauties was institutionalized by the HOT Girls a short while back. Does he still hold a grudge? Holly and Kashmir have both made public their hatred for The HOT Girls as well. Could they be behind the plot? Well, tonight, let’s throw the five of them into the ring together. The twist? Only two people in the ring at the same time. Tag anyone you want any time you want. First pin or submission wins. The winner of this match earns the rights to name a stipulation in their next Championship Match.

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

RP JUDGE: Malcolm Reynolds

SIM RULES: Sim each of your opponents 2 times using Standard match. All matches to be simmed on the 9th and 10th, unless you are double booked.

WINNER: Well, it looks like The HOT Girls are back together - because this match definitely went into HOT Girls Fantasy Land. Holly takes the lead on the sim and holds on through all the weirdness to claim the win. Winner - Holly

DETAILS: Battlestone has come back, looking to prove that he can get it done in the one place success has eluded him thus far. He’s looking to crack into the Harbinger Division Rankings, so why not give him a match with current Number 5 Contender Mandy? Each ringpost has a long metal pole attached. At the top of each pole is a briefcase. In three of the briefcases you will find weapons – obviously not a sledge hammer, but anything that might fit into a briefcase. In the fourth case is a contract for a Harbinger Championship match. To win the match, you have to get the briefcase and open it to reveal the contract.

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

RP JUDGE: Richard Grayson

SIM RULES: Sim your opponent 5 times using standard match type. All matches to be simmed on the 10th, unless you are double booked.

WINNER: This match featured really strong RP showings by both competitors as well as guest appearances by Johnny Rude and Major Putz. Mandy manages to hold off Battlestone's late surge however to claim victory.

DETAILS:Era, Major Putz, and Syren all made appearances, then went quiet. So let’s see if we can motivate them to get loud again. These three face off in a Come As You Are match. Wear whatever you want, bring whatever you like, and just beat the hell out of each other. Last Person Standing is the winner.

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

RP JUDGE: Malcolm Reynolds

SIM RULES: Sim each opponent 2 times each using ANY match type. All matches to be simmed on the 10th, unless you are double booked.

WINNER: Big thanks to Major Putz for putting in the effort against the double no-show.

FINISHING RIGHTS: Major Putz - if he so desires

DETAILS: This match welcomes back the NWA chain-link cage, but with yet another twist. EACH turnbuckle has a one-time-use button attached – all three turnbuckles on all four corners. The FIRST TIME ONLY each button is pressed, five thousand volts of electricity shoot through the cage. Escape the cage to win - but have fun trying to climb out before your opponent can press a button.

And if the match wasn’t already exciting enough, both of the contestants for this match have put a little something extra on the line. Storm’s Superstar Championship versus Control of The Network for one month. That’s right, if Haley wins, she not only advances, she becomes Superstar Champion. But if Storm wins, he advances AND becomes the leader of The Network for one month.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Mr. Francis I Cartier

I loved this match it had it all, Drama, Comedy, Twists and Turns, and most of all a nice steady flow. Both of these writers were spot on most of the way through this match. Then again this is two of the better if not the best players in the game. With all the extra interaction in this one between the two and the several others who lent a hand it could have easily gotten out of hand and and confuzzeled. However that never happened and the match never missed a stroke through out.

I had this match going neck and neck through out the entirety of it all. One player taking the lead from the other back and forth through the whole affair. Towards the end one did however seem to grab a few extra spots and points by doing so. Hitting back on previously set up ideas was awesome and in the end I think that pushed him towards the front in this match. In a very close race I have Jason Storm taking this match and moving on to the next round. Well done by both players and win or lose I feel both did excellent work.

Winner: Storm


Krusher

A great match put on by two of the icons of the game and two of the best I’ve ever had the great privilege to play this game with. I can honestly say this match certainly lived up to all my expectations.

It was obvious from the beginning of the match that the competitors were very familiar with each other. The story was compelling, with a good balance of drama and comedy that kept me waiting to see what happened next. This is one of those reads where you get to the end and you hate to have to declare a winner.

My scorecard definitely reflects that as well. The match was a great read, with lots of twists and struggles for control. Both Haley and Storm kept throwing Haymaker after haymaker at each other, building on the story and the drama with each post. Yes, there were some mistakes made in selling this or that on both sides, but very few of them negatively impacted the flow of the match. Both writers did a great job of keeping all the threads running, weaving them together without getting them tangled, and I think the side plots ended up really pushing the match forward without overtaking it. Too often writers let their side plots and backstage drama overshadow the match itself, but that was never a serious issue here as both kept a pretty good reign over things.

It was an extremely close call, with the main difference in the scores being little things, the extra twist or the small slip here or there. But in the end, a winner must be declared, and that winner is….. Jason Storm.

Winner: Storm

DETAILS: The first ever One World Champion versus the current One World Champion. And we’re putting them in a cage, but not just any cage. The cage for this match is made of blue rebar, but this time the top has been added. To win, you have to unlock the door and walk out. The catch? The key is hidden inside one of the turnbuckles. The second catch? The other eleven turnbuckles contain a small explosive charge, wired to go BOOM only when someone attempts to take the padding off to look for the key. The charge isnt' strong enough to kill you, but losing a finger isn't out of the question.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl:

Carnage was great in the ring and told a really compelling story. I felt his narrative was strong and it was a good read. Matt came in and went all out, but in a few posts he seemed to take digs at Holland. This DOES NOT take away from Matt in the least. He made it Super tight, and as a side note I think both of can do more then play with stereotypes.

Winner: Carnage


Cedrick Caesar:

The first ever One World Champion versus the current One World Champion, what a matchup. What an unbelievable matchup. I am totally not going to nitpick any on this one. It was a GREAT match from start to finish. Honestly? The first Read through I could not pick a winner. Bastards.. always trying to make things tough on me. Well they fricking did it. This was vintage Carnage.. something I haven't seen in a long long time. Matt? Matt is always great, and is in this one too. But, and this is a big but.. I think that maybe? Matt had a lot of other things going on at the same time as the match.. not that Carnage took vacation to bust out some excellent work. On second read through I found myself leaning.. and after spot reading a third time. I came up with a very dificult and tough decision. The First One takes it. Congratulations to Carnage

Winner: Carnage


WINNER: Carnage

DETAILS: Our old friend Barbed Wire Cage makes an appearance for this match, with a different twist. This time, it's a Tapei Death Match inside the barbed wire. Each contestant will have his hands and forearms wrapped in tape, then dipped in glue, and then dipped in crushed glass. To win the match you have to climb the cage and escape - remember, the barbed wire cage has no door, so the only way out is up and over.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl:

This is a tough one to judge if I'm being honest. Omega was trying hard and you can see it. He stepped up his game and should be proud. That said I think Cian beat him in a close one,

Cian needs to work on not getting so bogged down in the details and if you’re going to talk about the past give a little back story, but I felt like he was just a hair better then Omega.

Omega was battling till the end. I think on another day he would have won. I think the biggest thing I'd say is to tone down the drama in the narrative a bit. I know your selling the event, but a little goes a long way.

Winner: Cian Maccormack

Cedrick Caesar:

The Barbed Wire Cage/Tapei Death Match combo... I know it well. To both Cian Maccormack and Omega the first thing I would like to do is apologize for taking so long.. and for the relative shortness of these results. It's a real life/work/taking over the CWA kind of crazy thing.. Still no excuse for making you wait so long. The match? A good one.. both men are great posters.. both men have unique styles.. but both men cannot be the winner. As Omega stares into his eyes reflecting back at him from the mirror he wonders if he still has what it takes.. I have to say after reading the match.. he does. But the truth is both men left posts on the table that could have swung this close match either way. Cian does well also.. (much better effort than his OWC match in another form) I loved the breakdown of his posts.. and the way the interviews and such were woven in. The winner of this one in my humble opinion.. Cian.

Winner: Cian Maccormack


WINNER: Cian Maccormack

DETAILS: Johnny and Hairy really don’t like each other much. And can you blame Hairy? Rude has done some pretty, well, rude things to him. But we won’t dwell on that. Let’s talk about the match. The cage for this match looks just like Vince's old Big Blue Cage, except it's made out of bamboo. That's right, splintery, dangerous bamboo. The top of each vertical bar will be sharpened to a spike, and hanging from them will be a variety of weapons, whatever your heart desires. Escape the cage to win.

RP RULES: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Mr. Francis I. Cartier:

This had to be one of the most graphic and grueling matches I ever read or seen in my 3 years of RPing. It was just plain ass nasty. The hours and I mean hours of Time it took me to read this was painful. Not to say it wasn't a good match but I came away with a feeling of WTF. I don't know why but something just seemed to be missing. I don't know how they could have left anything out but I feel it was definitely missing something in the end.

Maybe it was because of the names that were involved, or the characters themselves. I know both really well and I felt they both missed something. Don't ask me what cause I really don't have a clue what it was. I've looked at it several ways, up one side and down the other and I still don't have a clue who won this. Rude brought the violence and the macabre to this match but it still wasn't who I know and love as a player. Hairy played to the man and even got just as mean and nasty and brutal as Rude.

Rude showed a glimmer of humanity to his character, but then just as quickly shoved it aside. Hairy pulled out his funny bone, then quickly buried it in the midst of the violence. In scoring this one comes down to a dead heat for me and if there was anyway to say this is a tie or draw then I damn sure would do it. Quite frankly I believe its how it should go. I don't see any separation between the two men in this match, as neither man set himself apart from the other.

I suppose I could pull a Ced and just flip a coin. ... Waits for the coin to drop ... Damn even it landed on its end.

Well I guess if I have to pick a winner, "Which I really dont" I guess I'll have to go with who I feel stayed within his own mind of who his character is now and not who I think they are. With that I have to give the win to Johnny B Rude. Sorry guys if it stings the things I said but I am just being as honest as I can be here. I feel you both deserve that as the great players you both are. I feel sick Excuse me....

Winner: Johnny Rude

Krusher:

In a match so closely contested as to be a ridiculous pain in the ass to judge, well, it came down to, in the end, who pushed the story along. Both men did. Both did a remarkable job selling and remembering all the twists that were thrown in. Having been a recipient of the Tube of Terror treatment, I can tell you first hand that logging into a match to start your first post and finding yourself where Hairy found himself can really throw you off your game. But being the consummate pro that he is, Hairy rolled with it and turned it right around. Then Rude handles what Hairy threw at him and turned it around.

The two of them gave me exactly what I was expecting, and that is one of the strongest matches I've read in a while. Anyone who wants to learn the fine art of rolling RP matches should study this one. Was it a touch more graphic than really suits my taste? Maybe, but then again, when you put wrestlers in such an extreme environment and turn them loose for three days with no rules you have to expect a certain amount of gore. The match was brutal - but it was brutal in an almost elegant way, a slaughterhouse story told by two of the best.

The difference on my scorecard was control. Both men had their turns at controlling the story, but as I was reading, it appeared that one of the competitors spent more time acting and forcing his opponent to react. And that competitor was Johnny Rude. Hairy gave me everything I'd hoped he would when I found out he was going to compete, and my hat is off to both men, but again, even in a match as well-written all the way around as this one, there has to be a winner.

Winner: Johnny Rude

DETAILS: The mind games started early for this one. Is Hooligan facing Alan Scott? Or are the rumors true? This will be a cage that looks just like the old NWA chain-link cage - except made completely of barbed wire - and with no door. The cage will be attached to the ringposts, so that the barbed wire just might reach out and bite you from a simple Irish whip. The fourth side will be attached AFTER both competitors make their entrance, and then the fight starts. This match will be an I QUIT match, the ONLY way you can win this match is to make your opponent say the words "I QUIT" into the referee's microphone.

RP RULES: ]: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Mr. Francis I. Cartier: No need to delve into this one as Alan takes it hands down. Sadly it could have been a great match up.

Krusher: One of the matches I was looking forward to turns into the match that wasn't. Hooligan's Real Life counterpart was handed the reigns of TWF just as the match was starting, which left him with no time to post. To his credit, Alan Scott didn't let that deter him from putting forward an impressive showing. It was a Ric Flair type effort, Alan, and a hell of a good read.


WINNER: Alan Scott

DETAILS: How long has this match been in the making? Tonight, Genocide is fighting not only for the right to advance in the King of the Cage Tournament, he’s also trying to keep his “incredible” undefeated streak alive. Hank Hooligan is after a little bit of LONG awaited revenge. The cage for this match is made of plywood and chicken wire and completely encompasses the ring and about 10 feet of space on each side of the ring. The roof of the cage is going to be ten feet above the mat, giving you enough clearance for ~most~ moves, although a high vertical suplex in the ring might be a bit of a scrape - meaning that the ONLY WAY in or out of the cage is through the single door.. This match will be a Come As You Are match. To win this match, you must knock your opponent out for a ten count.

RP RULES: ]: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl: First, before I get into my thoughts on the match itself I want to say that both Geno and Hank are two of the best guys I know in the game, and when I saw I was judging this I KNEW that it would be tough. Both are great. So it would be like splitting hairs and it was.

This really was a tale of 2 matches. The first part was dominated by Geno and the Rogue Gps and that. The second half was all about Hank and his ability to tell a story in match action. Not that Geno was bad in match action, or Hank rolling with what Geno did was bad. They weren't. Everything fit in the story.

I LOVE match action, but it was not enough to overtake Geno. He was a post up on Hank, and that was enough. Hank if RL would not have sucked could of won this one, but at the end Geno wins, and I for one HOPE Hank stays, or comes back in some form as he is a class guy and fits in Fed X..


Cedrick Caesar: What can I say? I tried to have these two battle as an ultimate feud when I was running the NGPW oh so long ago.. The HEAT was incredible.. and still is. As I started on this one I have to say Geno came out of the box hard with Hank leaving posts off the board that he could not afford to leave off. As I continued I believed that after day two Genocide had an insurmountable lead. But then a funny thing happened.. I saw Hank come to life... (it's as if the man had called in sick to Walmart!) In the end the comeback kid fell short however. With Naka's fast counts against Hank.. and his slow counts vs Geno.. say after a German Suplex, just go to show that Hank was up against a stacked deck. The winner of this one? Number 226 for Genocide.. I can hardly wait for the 227th rematch! Congrats to both men on a great match.

WINNER: Genocide

DETAILS: Think Hulk Hogan. That's right, the WWE's famous blue cage is back, and WE have it. The cage is made of iron rebar painted blue and attached directly to the ringposts. To win, you have to incapacitate your opponent long enough to escape the cage.

RP RULES: ]: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Living Deadgirl: This was tough for all the wrong reasons. Too many sub plots, too many NPC's and NO continuity. It made the match hard to flow to the point that I felt like I was reading two matches. Don't misunderstand me. The writing was tight, the story-telling was just as good as you'd expect from these two, who are two of the most talented writers in the game. But the desire to "one-up" each other ended up making the story hard to follow, and the constantly changing point of view not only distracted me from the match but made me a little bit dizzy.

Picking a winner for me came down to storytelling, and I have to give the nod to Demonica by an eyelash.


Cedrick Caesar: Bombs.. Billy Mays? Demonica and her scythe.. Weedy Crowe the stash.. Accolade... A Rude cameo.. collapsing scaffolding.. and much much more. This match has it all. Both competitors are vintage. The judging? Way to hard for me. So the coin comes out..... OK, it doesn't but if it did it would make is ever so much easier. I really struggled with this one. But then again if I didn't, well then this wouldn't have been the great match that it was. In the end... and this was by no means easy.. If I were three people it would go under the heading of a split decision. With that being said I leaned ever so slightly to... Kieren Crowe. Again, it was a tough decision and no doubt there will be some who disagree with it. Congratulations to Weedman for a hard fought win.

Tiebreaker - Krusher: I disqualified Crowe for being a Hogan mark. Then I changed my mind and disqualified him for bitching about Krusher’s decision to stop the match for an hour and restart it.

Okay, now that I have all that out of the way, let’s get to breaking this match down. Of the three matches I had to actually judge instead of just sitting back and marking out to *looks at Geno and Hank*, this one was the tightest. In fact, it was so tight, it’s the only match of the first round to require a tie-breaker.

The match was tight from the first post to the last. The story-telling was tight, and both of these writers are exceptionally talented. That said, there were a few small problems from my viewpoint. The rewrite had a tendency toward being a bit-disjointed with all the side stories, and some of those seemed to me to have just been dropped instead of being resolved. There were also a few minor slips in the selling, mainly because it was so hard to keep up with where all the ancillary characters were at any given time. Was Accolade hiding in the crowd or still in the back talking to Storm and Emissary. Was Azareth fighting IKI goons or Demonica?

Problems and disjointed feeling aside, the story was interesting throughout even if I did have to fill in a few blanks on my own. In the end, the questions I had to ask myself were… Who kept up with the details better? Who went to the effort to double check where everyone had been left? The action, the story, the dialog were well done by both competitors and both had some really nice WOW moments. But by the slimmest of margins, and I mean the barest imaginable margin, I had to give the nod to Kieran Crowe.


WINNER: Kieran Crowe

DETAILS: We brought back the old NWA cage made of chain-link fencing, which will be attached directly to the ringposts. To win, you have to escape the cage, but the referee won't give you the win unless your opponent is BLEEDING before you escape the cage.

RP RULES: ]: All King of the Cage tournament matches are seventy-two hours with a three posts per day hard cap. In addition, there is a two hour continuation rule, meaning that one wrestler may not post back-to-back flashes until at least two hours has passed from the posting time of the first flash.

RP JUDGES:

Mr. Francis I. Cartier: Aaron took off with this one right from the beginning in my opinion. Phil spent to much time dwelling on Rude and the fed instead of bringing something new to the table. I hate reading and rehashing history over and over again. Aaron's work of giving some back ground on new people and old people and showing some life in each and everyone was a nice change. One thing that did bug me was that one minute Bob and Doug ditch the Canadian accents to reveal themselves as W[d]N plants and the next they were back to playing the roles again. It was little things like that through out the Rps that hurt Stone in scoring. Aaron's only flaw I could see was minor Grammatical errors, but I am anything but a Grammar Nazi.

In the End I see Aaron Action taking this one and moving on.


Krusher: This match, and the story that was built by Phil and Aaron had a lot of potential. Several interesting characters were introduced to Federation X and some of our lesser known staff members were brought into the spotlight for their much deserved fifteen minutes of fame. Unfortunately, the match was hamstrung by a few problems which kept recurring. This was supposed to be a match between Aaron Action and Phil Stone, and yet a character who never even posted in the match got more face time than the combatants. Now, don't get me wrong, there is NOTHING wrong with bringing other wrestlers into a story, but they should be cast in supporting roles, not dominating the entire match, which is exactly what the use of Rude ended up doing. Another problem that hampered the story in this match is one of my personal pet peeves. Thinly veiled ooc jabs and pointing out what you perceive as no-sells from your opponent IS no-selling, and I grade it as such. The final little problem is that, while I love a good story, and the story Phil and Aaron put together IS a good story, the story overshadowed the match. It was handled in a very creative way, and I enjoyed the read, but I left wishing there'd been just a bit more meat on the bones. At the end of the day, you can't win points on my card for "Action" if there isn't any.

Now, the match itself was a good read, the pace was good and the side stories found a way to flow into the main story in a way I found interesting. I'm a fan of a good story, whether it be drama or comedy and I found myself caught up in this one for the most part and interested to see what happened next. The winner on my scorecard is the one who sidestepped the problem areas more often and kept the story going by constantly bringing the camera back to each thread and slowly tying them together into the finished tapestry. That person was Aaron Action.


WINNER: Aaron Action

Editor's Note: It is the sincere hope of the judges that all of the competitors will not feel slighted in the brevity of our result write-ups. I believe I can speak for all of us when I say that the brevity is not meant as any lack of respect for any of the competitors, but rather a testament to the incredible effort all eight writers put forth. I can say with great candor that I spent no less than 15 hours scoring the matches I was involved in, and I know that the other judges were just as diligent. These matches were all decided by very slim margins and in all honesty, one sentence here or there could EASILY have made all four results different. If I could stand and give you all a standing ovation, that's exactly what I would be doing right now, but I'm not going to because you couldn't see me doing it any way.

I want to thank each of you for the incredible work you put in to making this event what it is already shaping up to be. BRAVO!

DETAILS:We Call this edition of Ground Zero a "Night Of Tag Teams" With that in mind it only seems fitting to have the Tag team titles on the line. Unusual as it may seem since they're normally defended on Storm Warning. Still it adds to the zest of an already highly anticipated night. Pus this big affair takes place right before the King Of The Cage Selection Process. Alan and Geno have been dominant champions taking out the Hot Girls and Above The Influence in short order. Tonight however has all kinds of implications as Karmic Legacy go head to head with the gold on the line..........HOWEVER.....With Emissary out for an indefinite amount of time. That would leave Storm all alone....So in the interest of fairness, Storm can hand pick Emissary's replacement. The only stip is he must inform the world of his choice PRIOR to the start of Ground Zero. Regardless of how much the rest of the roster hates Karmic Legacy and the IKI...Storm MUST pick someone to be his partner...and likewise, the person he picks MUST participate as his partner. Getting along with him is of course Optional.

SIM RULES: Sim each of your opponents 2 time each standard match type. Use any extra match to sim one person on the opposing team 1 time using any match type. All matches to be simmed on the 2nd, unless you are double booked.

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

DETAILS:Since his return in early May, Omega has made it his top priority to not only end Storm but to take what Storm posseses....that being the Superstar Championship. The Victim of a vicious betrayal at the hands of Emissary who united with Storm to form the Karmic Legacy, Omega wants payback in the worst way. Storm is more then willing to give Omega the shot he desires.....Simply to "Cleanse" The world of the Sinner of Envy. They will do battle in the Fall From Grace Scaffold match. A Scaffold hangs 15 feet high over the ring. The outside of the ring is surounded by Tables, 2 wide and stacked two high. The inside of the ring is full of barbed wire. The object? Toss your opponent off the scaffolding into the pit of barbed wire below. The tables outside the ring are to break your fall in case you miss. The action will start on the floor....and then you'll have to work your way to the top. With the #1 seed in the KoTC on the line as well as the Superstar Championship....expectations for this one are "Bloody"

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score. 6 Post Cap in effect

WINNER:

Johnny B Rude ~ I'm going to open by commending Rude on his self appointed inclusion in the match. Unlike how it is often done, he took the time to spin a back story to justify his forced inclusion. I would have liked him to continue to delve into that reasoning and work his way through the objections of his opponents as he worked his way through the posts, but since he only went three posts deep, perhaps he ran out of time for that. In the end I thought he added some much needed challenges and afforded the actual competitors more opportunity to shine. Well done.

Omega ~ I thought that this was an exceptional effort from Omega, and early in the match I thought he took control with excellent selling and back story context. He continued to be a superior salesman throughout the match, and never once strayed from remembering all of the elements which had been introduced to the match itself. I think going into King of The Cage he needs to tighten up some of his technical aspects (there are frequent changes of tense in his writing, and some grammatical repitition issues in the early posts which hurt his score) and remember to be more concise. Twice he was hurt by drawing the post out too long. Sometimes less is more. Ultimately I felt like he was right in this thing until the end, though I felt like his second last post lost him some marks in selling (of Rude) and action. By that point we had just been waiting for the actual fight to begin for too long to have another post in which we were building to the fight. Of note: it mattered that Storm got the extra bonus point for two posts on Wednesday. In tight matches like this it always matters. Excellent work!

Storm ~ This is one of the better efforts I've seen from Storm in some time. He committed himself early to selling the unexpected turns which were thrown at him, and making sure that he didn't undersell them. I liked the context he worked into his early posts, but like all of his opponents, I didn't like how quickly the back story was left behind as the match progressed. I like to see it weave its way right through the match. Like Omega, Storm could benefit from making sure he didn't slip in and out of tenses in his posts, and from a technical standpoint he needs to make sure his punctuation is tighter and he doesn't allow run on sentences. He did fail to stay concise enough on a couple of occassions as well, and I understand how both men got in the flow as they were working, but they need to be aware that sometimes there is a better ending point for a post. Ultimately I felt like Storm did some exceptional selling work, and I really liked his action. My only objection to it would be that some of the high points really did come early, and the hospital scene began to bring on the feel of a three stooges movie and not three guys who were ready to cripple each other. That isn't on Storm alone though. The comedy post got me laughing, but hurt some character selling in my eyes. So he gave some points and gained some points from it. In the end though, his tighter action and the extra point allow him to retain over Omega.

Top notch work and my vote for match of the card. I think Rude would be included in the award if this match wins.

Best of luck to all of you in King of The Cage.

DETAILS:Last week Karmic Legacy was revealed to the world as Storm and Emissary united taking the entire fed for a two month ride of deciet and lies. 6 Fed X Superstars took more of the brunt then any other and tonight, Two of them are looking for Payback. Johnny Rude looks to unseat the Superstar Champion to take what he thinks Storm values most. Carnage uses his title shot to add himself to the match looking to capture gold while getting revenge. With that said these 3 men will face off in the newest Fed X innovation.....The Blind Man's Draw. 6 Opaque Cells surround the ring. Inside each, A member of the Fed X Roster, 2 of each handpicked by each man in the match. On each turnpost sit 4 poles, at the top of each pole is a key to 4 of the cells. The remaining two keys will be placed under the protection of John Paragon. In order to get these two keys, All the keys on the poles must be used first. Once this is complete, All you have to do is Ask John for the key. The trick is being able to get to him to ask. Once the cell is open, The Superstar inside can assist the person who chose them how they see fit. The Catch? You can't see inside the cell so maybe you open one with the guy you picked....or maybe you don't. It's almost like a twisted form of Russian Roulette. Also of note, Once a key is used it remains in the lock to keep someone from using the same key nto unlock all 6 cells at once. *SIDE NOTE* Each Person in the match MUST inform his opponents through Roleplay who the two superstars they pick to be in the cells will be. This can be done today or tommorrow during opening posts of the match. Also....The person's chosen MUST be active members of the current Fed X Roster.

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score. 6 Post Cap in effect

WINNER: Rude started out right in contention on this one, but fizzled out in the middle of the match and effectively abandoned his pursuit of the championship. Carnage was right in the fight from the get go, and was selling everything that was thrown at him. Delusional Dave Diamond ended up being Storm's replacement, and he was overmatched in every way, but the one that mattered. In what turned into a very creative match with plenty of turns and twists, characterization was the thing that carried the day for both 3D and Carnage. At the final tally though, Dave managed to hold off Carnage, who (despite some time as Jesus) just can't rise above.

Both men staked a hell of a claim to be that person, but there can be only one winner. And that person, and STILL Federation X's Superstar Champion- Jason Storm!

THE EVENT: MAX ENTROPY INVITATIONAL III

THE TIME: SPONSOR WARS PPV

THE LOCATION: MAPLE LEAF GARDENS

THE CONTESTANTS: Max Entropy, Angelica & Omega

THE DETAILS: In a moment of Hockey fervor, Max Entropy has decided to challenge the contenders to his throne to a Stanley Cup Brawl fought in arguably the most hallowed of hockey shrines; the recently retired Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, Ontario. Max, his bride to be (what is this the 9 year courtship?) and The Prodigal Son will head out on a specially constructed sheet of ice in the now defunct building. There will be no ropes and no ring. Only a sheet of ice, and a set of boards to attempt to keep the fight contained. The measurements of this special fighting surface will be about twice the size of a standard wrestling ring. The match will be determined in elimination fasion, with the last person to be pinned or to tap out winning the event.

THE FORMAT: BRB Style Rewrite

DUE: 12pm Noon, Saturday May 30th.

LOCATION: Post entry in the container supplied on the RP BOARD.

JUDGING: At this time, I can only confirm myself. The others will confirm and add their judging details below once they have decided. For myself, I will give you this information that I judge on:

1. Action ~ This is a wrestling match (gimmicked though it is) and that matters to me. Keep that in mind.
2. Dialogue ~ I look for dialogue that is in character and suits the scene. I'm aware of dialogue that fills space without purpose.
3. Selling ~ This is a big one for me, and the better you do it the better your chances.
4. Effort ~ For me effort includes more than just how long it is, it includes spelling, punctuation and research. Poor grammar and spelling cannot be overcome with 6 extra pages of writing. Also, you should be aware that I don't like to read books.
5. Progression ~ A match has a pace and rhythm to it. If its choppy or doesn't move along properly, it isn't well done.
6. Innovation ~ Matches have high points, and sometimes they're in the moves and sometimes they are in the unexpected. Sometimes they are in the moments that shold happen, but don't because nobody makes them happen. Innovation is why I shouldn't get tired of reading match rewrites.


**NOTE** My slot in the K0TC Tournament is on the line with my vote on the winner.

KRUSHER: Both rewrites were enjoyable reads, both had some good action.

Omega - I liked the feel of the rewrite, and the tightness of the story, like everything fit together very well. But the fight and "did they break up or just have a major argument" thing between Max and Angelica at the beginning just didn't ring true to me. It's not something I can see happening. Like the breakdown Max has in his bathroom - that doesn't strike me as something Max would do. The match itself was well written, with the exception that the wrestlers in their boots outmaneuvered Max on skates, being able to avoid his charges one second, but then slipping when they tried to turn around. Something about that seemed a bit off. The remote controlled zamboni was a nice touch, but telegraphed by the mention of the remote controlled car from the earlier match.

Angelica - The story didn't seem quite as tight, and Omega appears to be a bit of an afterthought throughout the pre-match sections of the rewrite, making only one brief appearance. The story line she takes with Max and Angelica is well-written, though, and her rewrite is more grounded in the card, the match feels more like it's actually part of the card instead of being free-standing. Angelica's match action is very well done, but having Omega simply eliminated by being thrown out of the ring didn't seem to be in the spirit of the match itself as the stipulations call for pin or submission. Also, having Omega jump back in with the zamboni felt like a bit of a reach for his character as well, Overall, though Angelica's match action was exciting, with some nice twists.

In a close match I have the winner by 1 point - Angelica

LIVINGDEAD GIRL: For the record, selling is the biggest piece of my focus in this discussion. Both writers struggled with it in my estimation. I thought they did good jobs, but I think both are capable of better.

Omega - Omega's rewrite certainly felt short and direct, but the bigger concern was that I didn't feel that he sold Angelica and Max well in the opening segment. Their fight and Max's breakdown seem like mis-sells to me, and that's a big issue. He did correct the concern for the most part once he got into the match action. I struggled with his action though, because it didn't seem to be as fleshed out as I expect it to be.

Angelica - Angelica certainly had the superior match action, as it had better flow and gave me a real sense of the high points of a match and the culmination seemed to be paced out well. Unfortunately I really do feel like Omega was an 'extra' in this story. He felt as though he was added out of necessity and not like he belonged in the match. That's a problem in a match that is a triple threat. I really feel like the match belonged to Angelica, but she loses me because Omega doesn't seem to be a real part of her story. That's a must in this format.

Its a close outcome, but I'm giving it to Omega.

GRAYSON: As I outlined above, I judge on a six point scale, with all six points carrying serious weight in the outcome. For me this was a terrific effort from both competitors. I think they both did well, and I think they both have areas where there is a real opportunity to improve and get stronger. Either would be an impressive representative of my seat in the King of The Cage Tournament in July. The question would come down to which of them was more focused and did the most with the feedback that they got here in order to prepare themselves.

Omega - Omega takes time early to get into the dynamic of his opponents, and I like that effort. Some arguments will come forward that his selling didn't work, but I see it as him representing a passionate and combustive couple with a giant gorilla in the room; the wedding. If he missed the mark, it wasn't because he was ignoring his opponents, but because he was taking liberty to set some back story. If he'd had it get a little more explosive and turn into an actual brawl, I'd have really been sold on it. Max's lazy attitude towards it......missed for me. The scene of Max breaking down missed Max completely in my mind. That said, I thought the match progressed fairly well from that point. Omega's match action showed lots of creativity, and the cunning side of Max and the resiliency of the Queen of The Cage certainly stood out in my mind. That said, his match action description wasn't as strong as Angelica's. Omega took my advice and kept the story tight and focused. I liked that. Extra respect for making fun of soccer too. If it was a tie.....that would have tipped it. Fuck do I hate soccer.

Angelica - Without slamming Omega, Angelica is the superior writer. Her technical ability is excellent and I notced it early into the read. Like both of my colleagues though, I really felt like Omega could have been a faceless entity in her story. Which is surely the low point of her effort. With Max I felt, as we all should, like she knows and understands him better than any of us. But I felt like I could have taken out Omega's name and inserted any name I wanted into the story without it mattering. That's a glaring problem in my mind, and dampens my enormous respect for her writing approach and style. I also felt like her match description was superior to Omegas, although not quite as innovative. It did not help her that Omega's removal from the match seemed.....insignificant. I honestly believe that if this had been a one on one match I would be writing about her dominating victory right now. But it wasn't. Angelica's story took longer to unfold, but nothing seemed wasted or out of place for the most part, and she did a good job of putting the match in context.

Max Entropy - I've said it before and I'll say it again; what is with this guy's reputation? I feel like his match action was one of the worst efforts I've ever seen, and his dialogue was pretty much non-existant. The match progression reminded me a lot of THOR, and his innovation felt a striking similarity to SOLO. All that was missing was a beatdown with a Monster Truck. With that said, he did keep it very concise as I suggested, and I did not find any incidents of no selling from Mr. Entropy, which is to be commended. Still, he was smacked around like a red-headed step-child by his competition. It is a disgrace that we let him host an event in his name only to seem him soil it.

Back on a serious note, I think both teams should be proud of the effort their participant put in. I think the competition was there for Angelica to take home, and I would like to see more competitions like this from her, because I think she's got it in her to be a major player. Especially in a place where we're not looking for somebody who can write about how they drove across the Australian outback in search of the rare duckbilled platapus, but rather for somebody who's an excellent writer and understands that they're roleplaying a wrestler. That said, I really do believe that she needed to make Omega matter in her story and she failed to execute on that end. While Omega could improve his technical writing and his match description, I felt like all three characters mattered in his story and he wanted to give each of them subtext and subplots. I think he showed great creativity in his match and in the end......he gets my spot in the King Of The Cage and the win over Angelica.

My hat is off to both of you. Well done.

Omega 2 - Aneglica 1.

In a final note, I would like to encourage Angelica to pursue a KoTC spot from one of the other PB members (all of them have one to give.) I honestly believe that you could be a force in that tournament.

DETAILS:Alan Scott & Johnny Rude are no strangers to each other. As a matter of fact, they consider each other SBFF's. So much so that Rude even kissed Alan at the Awards Show a few weeks ago. However, Playtime is over. Alan Scott has something Johnny Rude desperatly wants, The X-Factor Championship. These two SBFF's go one on one in a submission only match with the winner walking out as Champion. Now due to the amount of complaints we got last week, I've decided to add one more stip. All Teams are BARRED from ringisde. That should ease all the complaining and no one can say Malcolm Reynolds isn't a fair man....because I am..

RP RULES: Standard match rules. For each day that a participant gets up 2 posts that are either a)not back to back or b)at least three hours apart they will receive 1 additional point to the day's rp score.

WINNER: In a match that saw Alan Scott & Rude playing role reversal, This one went straight to the wire. All the blood, All the flesh eating.....That's right...I said flesh eating.....and all the brutality took this one to the limit....but in the end....Both men proved to be a couple tough sons of bitches.....as this one goes to a time limit Draw. Thus Alan Retains his X-Factor Championship.

DETAILS:Genocide is the X-Ecutioner Champion, A Belt he needs to hold onto to keep up with Team Flynt. Across from him, the #1 Contender Nighthawk perhaps his most difficult challenge yet.

Can Genocide Overcome the Shepherd or will Nighthawk finally bring some much needed Gold and points to Team Rapala?
