Am I allowed to cut my own promos?

Given the current environment on SA, with FYAD dying off because of bigots and (everything)phobics, that’s a can of worms I’d rather not subject myself or the mods to. All it’d take is someone taking the game too seriously to mess it up for everyone.

As much as I’d like to allow it, I’m sadly going to have to say “no” to this. Sorry, Rarity.

I mean when I was in a World Wide Wrestling PBP, there was no problem with our writing promos and such, so long as we didn't stray into areas like racial stereotypes or sexism or homophobia. (They even have a rule, "Making the X", which is about how anyone can at any time signal they're not comfortable with how something is going and everyone steps back.)

Yeah, as long as we have someone officiating I can't see it going too badly. Though I understand not wanting to give people to freely speak or write and end up slipping some poo poo in there. Maybe any promos could be screened/presubmitted to stop that in its tracks, but I can also respect if people just can't or don't want to open that door nonetheless.

I actually asked a few mods via PM for opinions before even putting the idea out here for the public. General consensus was to not allow it.

Given the goings on in the forums I understood their stance and figured I’d respect their wishes. After all, they can probate/ban me. What can I do to them? (In case it needs to be made clear, tongue is firmly planted in cheek on that last sentence.)

Edit 2: It’s looking like there’s enough interest to at least start this thing. I’m going to finish up my effort posts, and make final touches to the spreadsheet/database I’m using to keep track of everything tonight. I’ll link it in here when everything is ready, but in the meantime, another question.

I’ll be using pre-made characters that I had for an older project to fill roster space. Given that I’ll be making divisions and such, would you rather have all the goons in the same division(s) so there’s goon vs goon action during the season or spread them out to maybe give them better chances at making playoffs? I’m fine either way but figured I’d get a better idea of what y’all think would work best for your entertainment.

Yeah, that's completely fair and understandable. If the consensus ever changes I'd def be down to give it a shot, but I'm up for the game either way and think its really cool of you to take out time to work on it.

What time does this run? Need a distraction from Path of Exile/Ancestors/Slay the Spire on PS4 (and from tinkering with my tracking database any more EDIT: wanting to blow up my whole drat Access database because it won’t keep one season’s records separate from another’s and I can’t figure out why), and this sounds like just the ticket.

Here's an odd question for the wrestling game thread... My 5 year old daughter has had an interest in fighting games, and we played WWF No Mercy on N64 the other day and she kind of got into it. Unfortunately, the game is really dated and she only wants to play as the girl wrestlers, and I only have the 1 N64 controller that works these days.

I was thinking of what other retro wrestling games we have that would be easy for her to get into, because it could be fun doing a tag team with her and beating the computer on easy. I am not a fan of the new WWE 2K games where you need to time the kick out, because even I get pinned instantly with that poo poo.

Day of Reckoning 2 on Gamecube seemed like a winner with graphics that are not horrible and at least 4 women that she can pick and mix in with the guys. And the controls seemed straight forward. I cannot remember if WrestleMania X8 was any better though, but it has a bigger Women's roster. But it's an older game I think.

I also have WWE 13 and WWE 2K16, but I can't remember which one of those doesn't have the pin kickout mini game which I hate.

I basically have a Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, Switch, PS3, and PS4 with enough controllers to play a game with her.

Is she okay with one on one fights? The newer ufc games have a robust women's roster that might be of interest to her.

There's been a big breakthrough this past week in Fire Pro modding. Turns out you can easily replace UI elements with a Unity Asset Bundle editor, and people have gone wild with customizing their games. I'm going with an Black And White Drawings of Schoolgirls Doing Wrestling Moves theme.

Tonight on W.A.V.E. Pro-Wrestling: Ayako Asami vs WAR for the WAVE World Ultraweight Championship! Dan Backslide vs Johnny X for the WAVE Trans-AM Championship! The Smoothebois vs Bubb & Dubb! And much! Much more!

If I won the lottery i’d get someone to make a wrestling game that would basically be fire pro in 3D with Euphoria physics, I don’t care if it has a real world roster.

Why there will never be a wrestling game with bumps being decided by a physics engine is depressing and weird to me, replay value would be infinite if wrestlers bumped naturally for every move.

They wanted to do a GLOW and Southpaw DLC and they couldn't settle for which one.

Takuan
May 6, 2007

I think the gimmick for the Southpaw DLC is that it takes place years after the Youtube clips, so it kinda makes sense a bunch of people left the territory. I love the name Max Headlocks though.

Also.

W.A.V.E. Pro-Wrestling was always going to be a project with a definitive end, and that end is fast approaching. 4 more shows remain until the series finale. Tonight is the first of those four shows, featuring The Match Beyond!

The Alliance To Stop The Wrestleocalypse(Ayako Asami, Reiji Senkawa, Glambot 3000, & Jimmy Stardust) vs. The Horsemen Of The Wrestleocalypse(Triumph, WAR, Oppression, & Fall) in a timed-entrance cage match!

Plus, also:
W.A.V.E. Trans-AM Championship Match: Dan Backslide© vs Bam Bam The Training Bot
W.A.V.E. World Tag Championship Match: KyodAI© vs Bubb & Dubb
Celebration of Smoothness Match: Fred Dobbs vs Bob Cassale
Singles Match: Miles & Keiko vs Molly Malefic
8-Man Lucha Rules Tag Match: Jane Salem, Hiroto Mishima, Onyx, & RWC's Ricochet™ vs Saturno, Gran Gallo, Edwin Encarnacion, & Otome Lin
8-Man Tag Match: The B0N3B0YZ(Rad Bone, Dad Bone, Chad Bone & Mad Bone) vs The Lionmarks, Broman Gains, & Sapp Ledesma
