Hey guys, thought I'd try to get a discussion going around things that would help improve e-fedding as a whole. Could be something that you'd like to see in MSW, could be something you think would benefit EVERY fed... love to see some thoughts on this!

Could be something that you'd like to see in MSW, could be something you think would benefit EVERY fed... love to see some thoughts on this! I really like it when more of the e-fedders themselves take initiative in writing matches and coming up with plans for their character with management. That way the ideas and presentation of each show has something more unique and has more people trying to create some interesting and exciting stories as well.

Hey guys, thought I'd try to get a discussion going around things that would help improve e-fedding as a whole. Could be something that you'd like to see in MSW, could be something you think would benefit EVERY fed... love to see some thoughts on this! Personally I'd like to see the elimination of "deadline bombing". I know something like this will likely never come to pass but I think it's a practice that needs to stop. If it's about wanting some sort of "limit" talk to your opponent about it instead of dropping a RP at the last minute because you know your opponent has little no chance to fire back an RP of their own. I know people have busy schedules and all and I get that but the more time goes on the more I see bombing becoming the standard. We're not doing this for money. I really like it when more of the e-fedders themselves take initiative in writing matches and coming up with plans for their character with management. That way the ideas and presentation of each show has something more unique and has more people trying to create some interesting and exciting stories as well. It certainly helps. If you have an idea you're more than welcome to pitch it to us. As long as demands and threats aren't made (not going to mention any names but we had a few bad apples try to go the Hogan route) we can work together and come up with an arrangement that makes us all happy. I think it shows that you want to be here and be involved. Sometimes on mangement we may miss a thing or two trying to get everyone situated and involved into a storyline or program. As far as people offering to write matches it's nice to sometimes see a fresh take on things sometimes and to catch a different style. We haven't gotten any this go around but I personally don't think I'd complain if a reliable writer offered to take a match here or there. Personally I'd like to see more communication fostered. In the Twitter Age it's sometimes hard to keep the activity in house and it can start a bit of a negative feedback loop. People see low board activity which in turn can get fewer eyes on the product if you will. We did have a big ole Skype Chat going in the first season which worked pretty well and kept everyone close together so I wouldn't mind trying that again too. Another thing would be feedback. Roleplays, shows, everything. It lets us know what kind of job we're doing. If you like something let us know and we'll keep doing it, if you don't like something let us know and we'll fine tune it.

Absolutely this. Feedback, we put it up because want to know legit how you guys thr members perceive things to be. How do you like the angles, the results, the involvement and everything of the sort. I'd like to get a big ooc skyoe group going again, I'd also like to try and get some new, fresh faces to add to our awesome ooc community too. A perfect example of involvement lately duke andrews said he wanted to be involved in the Drew angle because of happenings over twitter and it's worked well. The shades as well. Yellow and green getting involved with red and purple was all his idea. So we are never opposed to your guys involvement. Debauchee said on twitter he hurt his hand so he can't compete, so we will be involving that into the show. The little things ya know. I'd like to get our podcast going again maybe sometime, too. Those were fun, but I wouldn't want to go strictly by a script anynore. Just a regular skype call about wrestling snd shit and general, and of course talking about msw as well. We've always had a great community, so I know I'd love to get us back up there with our community again. And I'd really love to see yall really get involved too, if any of you ever have ideas. Props to chris orton for going with all thr punches and making it fun to write his character in results.

Frank Debauchee is faking it! Spoiler alert!
In all seriousness I like the direction of MSW. The shows are solid and everyone gets their share of spotlight. Angles are pretty good as well. I like a fed that has direction.
What MSW could use is a higher body count. Variety of competition always fuels the atmosphere. That will come in time I'm sure. I enjoy everyone's work, have a great crew here. Everyone's work is worth a read. Nikki Venom has converted me into a mark. Matt Ward has come a long way since my sabbatical. Seeing him here was nice. He's a cool dude.
Another thing we could use here is some contenderships. I have no idea who is in the title hunt for what. It will give us little writers a bit of direction.

We've had to change our title plans around a few times because of some last minute happenings but I look forward to seeing what some other people will do. I'd like to get our massive roster back again too lol,there was a point we had to leave people off the cards bc there were so many

Feedback in general is something I feel that SOOOO many feds lack, and MSW is no exception. As a primarily writing-focused and storyline-driven hobby, feedback is about the only way we will steadily improve as writers. Would love to see more of this. I also don't see very many Feds giving a lot of love to entrances. I know it seems a weird callout, but I believe entrances are integral oftentimes to the characters, and would love to see things like entrance vids or even small music files that ppl can play to hear the entrance music. Just a thought
