We have done this two or so times in the past and it seemed to work quite well, so I thought this was as good of a time as any for us all to reflect our time in CWF so far. Coming out of Wrestle Fest II I thought we were doing greater than ever with the fed, but then Chris Andrews and Draco both left and it seems like we need a little kick in the ass again. So hopefully we can get some fresh ideas going here, get some discussion going, and keep CWF at the high prominence it's been for the past year.

Please do NOT reply to anything that anyone else says in their posts, because it is only their opinion and they have a right to speak their mind on this post. If you have a problem, message me or that person through PMs.

What do you like most about CWF:
I think my goal has always been to make the OOC boards something crazy and fun to read every day. Whether I upset people or have fun with 'yall it's for pure entertainment. I think we've done a solid job making the OOC boards exciting. But I think for CWF as a whole is that you can pretty much talk to anyone. And BECAUSE OF ME... it's never an dull/always entertaining OOC board. :)


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level:
Same people in the main event matches wrestling the same people, even me. I know some of it is storyline purposes but I'm not opposed working opening matches against younger people. But I think that can be spinned into a positive. If any rookie person on the roster wants to RP against me feel free to PM me. i'm open to going up against anyone. I think that Psycho Ninja had probably his best RP I ever read of his against me. Same with Billy Anderson. Sometimes Iron sharpens Iron. I know that TBS does very well when he's pushed.

But I think another thing that could be improved on is instead of a fan poll where some people might take offense to individual responses, making it a anonymous poll where you just click on the name. I don't wait to piss people off by saying i think someone else was better than them and then they get all mad at me.

And I think I shouldn't lose matches. Ever.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now: Honestly, Cain, Sahn/Jace and Jarvis King know my opinion of their rp's and how good they are. I'm taking the time to say the people that haven't gotten the kudo's they deserve. King nothing = Good. Elisha = Good. Ataxia = Good. TBS = Good. I would say some of the BRAND NEW guys, but they haven't been here a over a month yet. Be consistant and you'll go far.

What moment this year do you think defined your character best: Quick frame of reference but beating the unbeatable golden boy jarvis king.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year: Again, Haven't read much because I'm new still so my only real point of reference besides my own would be Elisha's stuff and/or Andrews/Cain


Who would you like to feud with in the future: anyone really that will produce decent roleplays and storylines. People that will bounce ideas off of and make it entertaining. I don't like to work with people where it's pulling teeth to try and work on a storyline together.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?:


Final ideas & suggestions: I think it's time that the newer people get shots at main eventing. The problem is some of the people I have heard wanting those shots haven't been producing the quality CONSISTANT roleplays. I'm a very competitive person and want to win at everything I do. But I think that for the people that ask for the push should be granted the opportunity.


my personal pet peeve - asking for critique on a RP on the boards and not giving it back. So what I'm doing now is anyone that would like my advice on a RP BEFORE OR AFTER it's posted will get it if the PM me. Some people have asked for me to help on their rp's and some people haven't. I'm not saying I'm a great RP'er, but I've always found success asking good writers like Ross what his thoughts are about my RP. What I should change? Etc. Sometimes a different perspective can really help you RP's. Plus i'm available on chat @ bigsexayefed@hotmail.com

What do you like most about CWF: It's a very entertaining fed. The different personalities of the CWF Roster makes it even better. Plus it's an active thread. I've been in two other threads like this before CWF and they really didn't go well. I can see this fed being active for a long time.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level: I agree with Big Sexay. It would interesting to see some matches that mix it up a little.

Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now: Jace Valentine...nuff said.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best: I can't really say I have one at this time. I'm still developing as the months go by. My character's career has had a lot of ups and downs...mostly downs. But hopefully, I can change that by the end of 2010.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year: I haven't really been paying attention to most of the feuds here because of other endeavors outside of the CWF but after reading Cain/Andrews Match at WrestleFest, it seemed like the rivalry went well.


Who would you like to feud with in the future: I would like to face either Cain or Andrews in the near future in at least one match. These guys are one of the best Rpers I've seen. They would be an excellent challenge for me. Rivalry wise...It would be great if the XA Express can feud with another tag team. It would develop the XA Express as a team.

Final ideas & suggestions: None that I can think of at this moment.

What do you like most about CWF:
I like the variety of the members and the consistency of the shows/segments/pieces posted.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level:
I haven't been around long enough to dislike anything.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now:
Ataxia, King Nothing, Big Sexay, Devin Pearce, Danny B and the list goes on.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best:
I have so many to choose from........ probably my first match?


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year:
That one with those people, so long ago.


Who would you like to feud with in the future:
Cain, Jace Valentine, Big Sexay, Highlander.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?:
I'm not a huge fan of "OMG there's like 50 people in the ring at once" match types. Then again, I haven't been here for an End Games match so what do I know?.


Final ideas & suggestions:
Honestly, I would feel a lot more comfortable as a writer if we either raised the word limit or the amount of RPs done in a week. Some writers can write a great story in 3,000 words. Cool, and great for them, but there comes a time when a writer must grow and sometimes that means making a more detailed story than 4,000 words can express. It's not a matter of talent, so much as methods of storytelling - some stories need more scenes, need more parts. If it is in fact quality over quantity, then raising the word limit to about 5-6,000 words shouldn't be that big of a deal, but that's just a suggestion.

What do you like most about CWF:
There's a lot. The best thing is that the shows have always been up on time. Some may have been a bit late, but hours, not days. I also love the uniqueness of the characters. All created. All original.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level:
The amount of no-shows for one. The second being that some characters seem inaccessible. Such as, if the worst roleplayer were to want to interact with the best roleplayer, the worst one would get shrugged off. Third is the abuse of kayfabe. I know we're supposed to pretend that there is a camera following you around and that everything that ends up in your roleplay is fair game, but there should be a general understanding of things that are unacceptable. Things such as dreams, or psychological revolutions are things that no camera can catch. Having your character announce that they can do four thousand words on ____ really breaks the fourth wall.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now:
As always, I dig Angel's brand of writing. I'm intrigued with Delamere, and The Grinch. I also enjoy Ninja's each week, sitting back and watching his writing improve and grow.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best:
Not sure on that one. With my break and all, I'd say it would be my return, or my feud with Highlander before my break.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year:
I'd say Jarvis' journey from heel to face to president to where he is now.


Who would you like to feud with in the future:
Delamere, Pearce, maybe Cain.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?:
Traditions are something that not many feds have the ability to do. We can.


Final ideas & suggestions:
I'm all about the writing. I like a good storyline that is well written on both sides. There is a lot of debate between match talk vs character development. I think CD wins every time. Each week, you get four thousand words plus any segments you write to tell a tale that furthers the knowledge of your character. What you do with those words is what separates the boys from the men, so to speak.

What do you like most about CWF: What isnt there to like about CWF? The people are (usually) friendly. OOC is brilliant, beings me a smile almost all the time. The roleplays are of great quality, and everyone gives their everything to try and improve.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level: Dislike? There is kinda only one thing I dislike, and that is the arguments that can appear from time to time over diagreements.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now: Jarvis King, has impressed me since day one, as has Cain. I love the character of King Nothing, and Angel is so unique. I am also curious to see where our newbies go.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best: I cant dispute this one, winning the tag team championship in my return match after two months out. Brilliant moment. I also remember back last year, I faced Cain for the world title with Anubis, and people said I actually had a fair shot if it was anyone else. Great moment for me.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year: Cain/Andrews saga number one and two. The Jarvis King transitions and the cyndicate/Enterprise/Insurgency back and forth.


Who would you like to feud with in the future: I cant help but wait to jump to the main event. So guys like Cain, Jarvis, Jace, as well as Andrews and Angelica if they ever return.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?: Yes, but there is one problem, at Redemption there will be a total of four on the record. If its going to be a tradition, keep it as a once a year thing.


Final ideas & suggestions: Not much honestly, lets just hope we all improve, and hope that we get more talented writers in the future.

What do you like most about CWF:
What's not to like? The OOC community that we've got is, and always has been, something that I think keeps us going strong. I've met some cracking guys and gals whilst I've been here, and some of the discussions we have (involving CWF or not) keep me smiling, interested and entertained. I think the quality of writing that the people here have been putting out has steadily improved since I joined too, and that brings with it the challenge to better yourself as a writer, but also as a thinker, as we try to keep going with new and original storyline ideas. I could go on in this section for quite some time, but you get the picture :P


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level:
I wouldn't say there was much I disliked. Again, like Danny said, there's the little gripes and arguments that pop up on the OOC board from time to time, but I think that's inevitable when you get so many strong-willed people in one place, and as long as nobody takes it too far, I don't think there's anything wrong with a bit of healthy debate. I think more communication within CWF would alos be a good thing. Many of us, when embroiled in a storyline, are quite good about organising ourselves and discussing seg ideas, creative stuff and other such things pertaining to feuds, whether thats via MSN, e-mail, the forums etc. But often, like Alex said, it's like pulling teeth, and thats when a feud/storyline becomes unenjoyable - when it feels like it's a one-way thing, and you're giving more than you're getting. So... yeah. If we were all on the same wavelength in that respect, I think that could only help the fed.

Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now:
Jace Valentine has been in a rich vein of form for a good couple of months now, and is just so damn consistent. Cain is always a joy to read, and I think Big Sexay has brought something fresh and new as well. Honourable mention also to Elisha, who I think is a fantastically intriguing and entertaining character to read on a weekly basis.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best:
Dyou know what? I still think I'm striving for that 'defining moment'. If I had beaten Cain at the end of what was the most enjoyable feud of my CWF tenure, I would've said that... but I didn't, so I can't! :P Being a two-time Tag Team Champ is something I'm very proud of, and of course, a win at CWF's biggest event, WrestleFest, is something I can hold on to as well. Lots of good stuff, but hopefully more to come...!


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year:
Sooooo many to choose from! I hope Jarvis vs Cain qualifies as being 'this year', but can't remember. So for argument's sake, I'll also say that Angelica's Heel turn, and reign as World Champ, and all the stories that went with that, brought out the best in Dani as a writer, and was an absolute joy to read, from beginning to end. Again, another honourable mention to Jonny, and the Elijah/Elisha deal, which I think captured everyone's attention.

Who would you like to feud with in the future:
Again, the list is pretty much endless! Myself and Jazz (Angel) have had more than one discussion about a Scorpio-Angel feud, and I'd quite like to explore the possibilities again at some point. Jace Valentine is in demand right now, but I'd love to work something with him. And if I ever properly reached that level, the likes of Cain (again), Jarvis and Big Sexay would be a joy to work with too.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?:
Totally agree with KN and Danny. It should be kept, if only for the warm, fuzzy nostalgic feeling that it's old and it's 'ours'. But for it to be a proper tradition, and so that it stays important and meaningful, I think it should only be an annual event. Are you listening, Mr Gimmick Match? :D


Final ideas & suggestions:
I think I've said pretty much all I need to say... :P I think we just need to keep doing what we're doing, not be adverse to change when it's necessary, and look to an obviously bright future with an open mind! If that's not inspiring, I dunno what is!!! :lol:

What do you like most about CWF: The OOC community, without a doubt, there is a family like atmosphere in this fed, i have known some of these guys for a long time and some of them for a very short time, but everyone seems to get on, any issues always seem to be kept off the forums which is a good thing and usually they are sorted out. I enjoy talking to pretty much everyone and the atmosphere is what keeps me here.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level: I think the influx of new people has been great, characters like Ataxia and Grinch have a great future, but they need to be given their chance, i think the old guys have been running the show for long enough now, time for the newbies to step up.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now:Elisha has been the best thing in this fed for the best part of 2 months, other than that i have to say Ninja has been hugely impressive, when Chandler was handling Ramsey i think its fair to say he was a bit of figure of fun, but since he re-invented himself he has come on leaps and bounds.

What moment this year do you think defined your character best:i guess winning the world title on both occasions would be a highlight, but i think the defining moment for me was the quest for the Tag Titles, unsuccesful it may have been, but it is the standout moment for me. Also the second feud with Andrews was epic.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year:hmmm, in no particular order, Angelica/Andrews, Angel/Elisha, Sahn/Elijah, Anderson/Extreme, Sahn/King are all stand outs for me.


Who would you like to feud with in the future:Anyone.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?:Keep it, its one of our "Big Four" PPV's, its like our Survivor Series.


Final ideas & suggestions: A year in business, phenominal, heres to another year.

What do you like most about CWF: How everyone is a family. I was welcomed when I came to CWF, and I have lots of fun. It is a nice environment that Rish has created, and I really enjoy it.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level: I want a chance. A chance to be along the best pf the best in the fed. Just one chance will make me happy. I know lower-card matches are where I belong, but I just want one chance to play with the big guys and see what I can produce.


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now: Cain, Sexay, Jarvis, Delemare, Valentine, Angel, McNeil, Abi, Ninja, Xtreme, Nothing, Ataxia, Mace, Highlander, wow the list keeps going!


What moment this year do you think defined your character best: When me and The Uprising attacked Jarvis and Sexay.


What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year: Elisha and Angel. That whole feud was awesome.


Who would you like to feud with in the future: Colton Mace. I really respect this guy and I would love to work with him. I think he's fantastic.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?: Nah, I'd say keep it how it is.


Final ideas & suggestions: I really enjoy this fed. I thank everyone for pushing for me to improve my RPs and be better. I have had a lot of fun in the past year with this fed. And I thank everyone for making this wonderful experience an amazing time for me.

Bucky, If you would like a chance. Anytime you want to rp against me you're more than welcome to. I know you have some personal stuff going on but I'll be glad to give you a shot for the Impact Title the week after next (I'm on vacation this week). Or since i'll probably lose it soon enough to someone we could RP against each other.


I'm all about getting new people the opportunity and I know Ross & Angelica is as well. Our goal is to help a lot of the younger rp'ers and people that haven't had shots before get those opportunities. I think Ninja has given two solid roleplays when the past two times he has faced me. (I just finished reading his current one).


That goes for pretty much anyone. I'm not in huge storylines that I must be in every week a certain person. I'll gladly rp against anyone.

What do you like most about CWF: Gotta be the atmosphere. I feel like I've made a lot of good friends in the time I've been here.


What do you dislike about CWF/things that could be improved to take the fed to the next level:


Whose roleplays are you most impressed with right now: Everyone's doing well... a few that immediately spring to mind are Elisha, King Nothing and Marcus Delamere.


What moment this year do you think defined your character best:
For Highlander, fighting Angelica for the World title. For Carlton, either the fun times with Mace and Jarvis or the point where he finally got a soul :P

What storyline or feud was your favorite to read throughout this past year: Gotta be Jarvis vs Cain. A lot of genuine tension as to who was going to win, and the two of them really ramped up the creativity.


Who would you like to feud with in the future: Long list, but at the top of it are Angel, Abigail Starr, Elisha/jah, Marcus Delamere and King Nothing.


Redemption is CWF's September ppv, which last year brought in the very first End Games Match for the World championship. Do you think we should continue that tradition, and if not what creative idea can you bring to this event?: Redemption has a special place in my heart because it's where I made my debut last September. I like the idea of keeping on going with the End Games match.
