Whats the first rule about Fight Club? No one is supposed to know about FIGHT CLUB!!!! Well, from what I have seen......the Egyptians know about it.
I have talked about the fighting already and dont want to spend too much time on it. What I want to address is a few situations concerning Slam.
1. Slam is a different format than what you WFWF guys have seen in the past. I do full commentary. Its more exciting and shows the administration cares. These results have taken me almost 10 hours to put together. A lot of time goes into them. A lot of creativity goes into them. I ask that you respect that and when you have something negative say, add some positives too. Its like an rp from an administrator.
2. Rps. I want everyone to understand this.......THIS IS NOT WFWF. Whos rp is best is not decided by how detailed or original the scenery is. There is a 3 person panel who decides results. Myself, Immune, and Z. Each of us have our own way of critiquing. But I can assure, no scenery in the world is going to save a guy who cant work the microphone. I cannnot stress this enough. SPEECH IS KEY!!! When was the last time you saw someone say....."The Rock's last promo sucked. He cut it from his home in Miami. All we saw was his bar in the background and he was playing pool. There was nothing else going on. He didnt attack anyone. A truck didnt drive through his home. Not even any good art on the wall." No, people grade it on based on what he says. Thats an rp to me. Thats how I decide on who wins and who loses. Bailey is a prime example. His scenery is subpar. His speech is top notch. Bailey is one of the best in the fed, if not the best right now.
3. The situation with Meg. A few days ago Meg announced that she was leaving ROI. She said she just did not have enough time for 2 feds. Did anyone say "what a bitch!" Nope. Everyone wished her well and respected the fact that she had to do what was best for her. So how can some people in this league shit on me and shit on this company for doing the same? We did what was best for ROI. Not what was best for Meg. I dont expect Meg to say.....that just because she is short on time that she should have to give up WFWF or give up sleeping. So in turn, why should ROI do the same? Did she have the best rp? ABSOLUTELY! There was no debate about that. It was very well written. But what purpose does it serve for her to go over? We have a Women's Division that had 4 women. One quit. 2 didnt rp. To me...its a no brainer. The chick that rped gets the win. SHE DESERVED IT!! Poison Ivy wrote a good rp, not better than Megs. But certainly was good. And she cared to actually do it. The other 2 ladies did not rp for whatever reason. Meg quit. Why should ROI award someone who is no in the league? Why should ROI punish Poison Ivy b/c she is and she tries?
Furthermore, from now on, I ask that everyone refrain from bitching about the results. No one person had determined them. And if you have a question about YOUR character's match....direct those to administration via PM or IM. We will no longer discuss match results for other people.
4. I have read through the complaints and have noticed some to be valid and some to be ridiculous. Justin Tyme, you mentioned the Britney Spears sex tape. If you READ the card in its entirety, then you would know it was a commercial break. I try to post funny shit that has nothing to do with the league or just news that has nothing to do with the league in the commercials. And if you clicked the link, like you should have......you would know that it wasnt a Britney Spears sex tape. It was 2 monekys having sex. I am not posting porn in the fed. Thats insane.
As far as the results for Immune/Hardcastle. They are what they are. I have no problems losing to Immune. I will say that I would have been extremely dissapointed if I had lost this match, because I felt my rps were better. But that does not mean that Immune cannot beat me. I have seen this man put out some really good ones. And I KNOW HE CAN BEAT ME! I know that anyone in this league can beat anyone. PERIOD! It happens. I dont feel that I need to defend my win. The decision was made in the most fairest way possible.
Now as far as the angle with Brittney Bailey, Saint, Brandon and myself. Tyme, if you think we didnt do something right or we could have expanded, please share. That is something that works really well. Having an idea for a feud or angle, especially if its not your own. I welcome any suggestions you may have for it. And thank you for taking the time to actually evaluate someone else rather than just yourself. Most people dont see things for others.
Thats about it. You know where you can reach me if you need anything. Peace out!

Oh...sorry about that. I got caught up in the moment. Ok guys, I'm going to try this peace keeper thing again. It's really not that hard, but for some reason there is a lot of bias against a cetain member of the administration and a few of us in the ROI aren't understanding why. Tyme, I'm not singling you out, but I'm speaking to you because you've been the most vocal in the last 24 hours about how you feel.
