WWA Season 9 Sign-Up Thread.

[The_Enigma]

WWA Season 9 - Start Date Pending.

Hey! Thanks for showing your interest in WWA! Before we make a start on anything, the WWA Board have decided that we will see what interest is out there before any concrete decisions are made such as start dates and such... We will be looking to have a minimum of 8 participants (Promotions). We will be looking to slightly freshen things up this season so WWA will be taking a look through the feedback from last season and be open to any further suggestions within this topic.

If you are interested in signing up, please state your interest along with if you want to run a solo promotion or if you are up for teaming up with somebody. Once we have our names, those who have stated they want to be part of a team will then be drawn together unless any of you can work out a team before hand. 

Yours Sincerely - WWA Board.

#2 - Prometheus
#3 - Gregers (Need's Team Member)
#4 - Thunder

Sign me up...XXX Season 3!

[Prometheus]

I'll play.

I've no mates to team up with, but if anyone wants me to be Kane to their Daniel Bryan I'll happily be part of a dynamic duo.

[Gregers]

NXtreme confirming once more, would love to Team it this year tbh as may require a match writer/creative consultant

If interested please read/ask about nXtremes History (I'm not being up myself here I just want you to know the sort of shows that I write (very storyline driven)

Prom/anyone if you fancy it let me know

[Prometheus]

Sorry Gregers. I've decided to go on a solo run if possible. No one deserves to be dragged down by my sub Vinnie Russo booking

[Marky]

I'm tempted but equally I don't know if I'll have enough time. Would be a solo run, have been in enough dynamic duos in the past with WWA (Catchy, Sexy, Witty and Delightful Wrestling with Demon, that soap opera one with Olly we never finished)

[Marky]

Just realised how spectacular mine and Olly's show was  https://www.606v2.com/t54004-tactic-submissions-s7#2663602

[Thunder87]

You know I'm in. Just got to fight the urge to comic book it up to high hell. Probably be going solo.

[The_Enigma]

Added Thunder to the list and have added Marky is the maybe pile while he makes up his mind... Marky you will still get first refusal before we give your spot away.

Fernando is looking to team up Gregers so perhaps that could be an option? I'm also looking for help but I do have unfinished business from last season so could do with somebody ideally joining me...

[Fernando]

It's not like you don't have the time being a cripple now

Im happy to team with anyone aslong as i don't have to be creative & just write matches

[Marky]

Will there be a word limit on shows? Think part of the skill is getting the shows across without writing essays, also means more likely to get the show in if they can be shorter when people's interest begins to wane after 3 or 4 weeks.

Also Nando I'm not a cripple, but I am after a blue badge

[Thunder87]

Nando, the only reason, I don't want a team is cause I want creative control so, if you just want to write matches... I hope there's no word limit.

[Gregers]

Nando if you'll do some matches then that sounds great for me. I can do creative and you can do that if you want?

Ive no idea Fella Should get yourself a bus pass their good

Im quite happy to team with anyone tbh.

[Thunder87]

Sounds like Nando is in high demand

[jai.roberts]

Is be interested i said I'd not do it again but I might consider a team effort ... That would halve the work load for me

[x12x]

I guess this is the place to post this...I've suggested it before but I thought I'd bring it up again.

A free pick to start the season. Everyone sends their pick to an impartial person, if you're the only person to go for that superstar then you get them no cost...if you pick someone that someone else has picked then you will both be given the choice to pick another person...if you refuse then the two of you must bid for that name with the money coming out of the initial budget.

This way we all get someone to build our season around and by involving an impartial person (wouldn't be too hard to find) nobody has an advantage.

What do people think of this idea?

Could work but it also stops people paying over the odds for someone they need desperately.

Any takers in teaming with me this season?

[x12x]

The reason I suggested it is I have one name I really really want but who would be hard to get...this way, I get a name I want without being ripped off and others get to as well.

I know a few of us have that dream name in mind so I think trialing the idea this season could be a good idea.

[The_Enigma]

I will be discussing all feedback and suggestions with Fernando at some point this weekend.

[Thunder87]

I know a couple of guys that maybe interested, outside of 606 but, after last time I'm a little dubious about it.

[Fernando]

After last time it's a bad idea Im happy to have new people if committed tbh.

[Marky]

You say that but you won't be the only one after Rico.

[x12x]

Disco Inferno actually...

[The_Enigma]

Any other takers the upcoming season?

If we don't fill the spots, the league will not be running until January so we don't hit the Xmas Holidays...

[x12x]

Which of you guys are teaming up? Once we work that out we can see how many spots we actually have...would 6 spots be too little? Could have bye weeks to fill the quota for shows

[The_Enigma]

If Marky decides to run on his own and Jai teams up with somebody we will have 6 so only have two more spaces left to fill.... We have tried with just 6 in the past and it really doesn't work. The roster's become way to strong and the fixtures become much more shorter.

We'll give it another few days / week and see what interest we have and make a formal decision.

[Samo]

Yeah, sign me up. I'll probably do pish because I suck at fantasy booking stuff but I'll fill in a slot, it'll be a laugh atleast

[Fernando]

If it gets Jai involved ill team with him

[Marky]

If I'm in I'd rather it began ASAP rather than waiting until January. I'm in if we start now. But don't know if I can commit to next year.

[Fernando]

The plan is to do a 10 day week with 4 days to vote. So would finish before Xmas. If Jai is in then we have enough to start.

[jai.roberts]

I've agreed to team with enigma but if we need the numbers is be willing to do a solo effort ...

[Marky]

I think we should go with Viper's idea of all choosing a "big name" to build our fed around. Then maybe a smaller budget?

[The_Enigma]

I have sent out a couple of PM's so we will see if we can make-up the final spot.

Fernando, have you decided on who you would like to team with? I don't mind if you wish to team with Jai but I could also do with the help so we will have to see if we can sort something out.

WWA Board will be making a start on admin things later today so hopefully we will have some news about the upcoming rules changes...

[jai.roberts]

I don't mind who I team with fernando or enigma I'll leave it up to you two

[The_Enigma]

Once we have our 8th Sign-Up, we can then sort out who can team up with who.

[Samo]

I found myself fantasy booking feuds in my head earlier at work to dull the tedium before I realised that I dont even know what wrestlers Im going to have to play with.

[The_Enigma]

It's all part of the fun Samo... Once you are given your starting roster it doesn't mean you are stuck wit them, you can buy, sell and trade with other promotions within the game.

We should have some rules up before the end of play tonight.

Just to let you all know, we have already sorted all the rosters that will be featuring this season so we now just need to wait for Fernando to work his magic and draft-up some starting rosters!

[Fernando]

We need an 8th person before i can start drafting.

[The_Enigma]

I don't mind if you and Jai want to team up to form the 8th Promotion... ?!?

If anybody else wants to join.... I'm looking for somebody to co-run things with me and Gregers is also looking for help for those who are perhaps brand-new to the league

[Fernando]

If Jai is willing to do the story writing & just leave me to the match writing im happy to go with that.

Shall do them tomorrow afternoon

[jai.roberts]

Nando it's the match writing that Im not so good at always leave it till last min and rush it so for me to write storyline stuff suits me to the ground mate

[Fernando]

Alright cool, Shall have to have a creative meeting and just let me know how you want matches to go

[jai.roberts]

Ok mate no problems

[Marky]

Before drafts, what was made of mine and Viper's suggestions?

[Thunder87]

It's all good by me.

[x12x]

I hope we go with my suggestion but I don't like the idea of a smaller budget haha
I'm happy to go with a word count limit as sometimes reading 7 shows on a busy week can be a bit much if the shows are super long (guilty of this myself).

I know it was banned last season but any chance the rule of design work being able to be part of trades? I get it if it isn't but if it is I'd be happy too haha

[Marky]

That shouldn't be allowed Viper, it's an unfair advantage TBH.

We're going to try and freshen things up and have a bit more fun this season so please state your vote. The poll expires on Friday but the quicker you vote the quicker we can get started.

Viper - You will not be allowed to sell Graphic Design or any other type of personal services for any WWA type transaction.

[Hero]

I can offer my services as 'transfer negotiator' for a manager, I have no wish to be involved in anything past that but I can certainly assist in getting you the roster you want.
