Post-Epic clean-up!

[devastation]

All you had to do was IM or PM me...not that hard, I did enjoy this little tirade of yours though...

[devastation]

Maybe I got spoiled when Brion ran a fed, that's what he always did, gave people a heads up...

[Ryan Ro [NAPW]]

Here's a PM for you!

Future plans for Devastation.

Hey Kirk,


Good run with your title. Just days off of beating D!'s length record. For now, Devatastion should move out of the Title. I'm going to start working the rankings more, and avoiding auto-rematches. Dev does not have an auto-rematch in his clause (this was Rex's auto-rematch anyways).

You're a good RPer, I know at some point you'll get another shot at the belt. I'm not entirely sure where to go from here, but a feud with D! could be possible.

Again, congratulations... and thank you for making a great heel champion. Devastation as champion was good stuff, and I'm sorry things happened this week to make it tough to RP. I really enjoyed your first two roleplays this week. It was close. Diego had one point difference between you and Rex and I pretty much ended up at the same conclusion.


Ryan

Snakes On A Plane, a PM! Sent to Dev! Immediately after Epic! As my first priority!

[devastation]

before Brion would talk about and develop plans, of course I have been on AOL today and have seen you pop on and off and you'd rather discuss this in a very public forum and show off for your boys than talk to me...

One time i got a PM that said

Hey...

That new RP really crossed a few lines. From a reality standpoint, you just basically killed a dude on television, so that's... just bad. But from a more personal standpoint, I'm serious when I say a PG-13 era for the fed. Please, dude, no torture, and even though I won't say 'tone down' your character I would personally appreciate a lot less weird-sex-(BLEEP).

For the record, I liked your stuff last week very much. It was intriguing and fascinating, as well as selling your matches. This current one just seems like bad slash, you know? I won't say you can't write that, but NAPW might not be the appropriate venue. Thanks, man.

[Ryan Ro [NAPW]]

I've never held the booking philosophy in NAPW that I have to plot out every single storyline point with the people involved. This is not an angle fed, it's a roleplay fed. I book SURPRISES. I book while keeping people in the dark unless I have to involve people in the discussion. And often I do. You want communication? Diego could have LESS communication from me going "Okay man what's the storyline finish for D-Men! What's the pay-off!"

I don't see any reason why I needed to approach Dev or Rex and say "Okay, if you win, we'll do this, if you lose, we'll do this." Why? It's a straight title match. Neither man came to me with any particular angle ideas to discuss. I played it and wrote it as a straight title match, a blow-off to a long-standing feud.

Look, maybe I'm just not understanding the problem here. What exactly are you trying to say? That Ryan should have told you that he booked you to lose after the Epic RP period closed?

I don't know about you, but I LIKE reading the shows not knowing who's going to win in my match. Did I roleplay well enough to beat the Bi-Polar Express? No? Oh, well, then, let's keep the story going, even if D-X isn't going to face them right away.

So if Ryan emailed you like he said, and said, "Hey, thanks for the title run, you'll be away from the title for a bit," that's not good enough communication for you? Does it have to be spelled out that after a two-and-a-half-month storyarc (which is a HUGE amount of time in a e-fed world) that new opponents will go for the belt? Ryan has to tell every competitor that a rematch isn't always given in these situations, especially after Rex/Devastation's been done twice before (three times if you count the Complete Control match with everyone else added in)?

It sounds like a lot of hand-holding to me.

Okay, so this happened, and you're not getting the rematch against Caliber. Who says you can't go against D! if D! wins over Rex? It's not like you're being tossed to the curb, here. You had to go out of your way to drag these feelings into your roleplay, when Ryan isn't even a character in the NAPW world?

[devastation]

Hey, all I am saying is that Ryan could have IM'ed me or PM'ed me beforehand and said win or lose after Epic we are going a different direction with the title, you'll get your rematch but be patient, I had to defend against Ravager's championship rematch and Rex's rematch...

I understand storylines and the such and as Dave and I are chatting I said hell I'd wait 2 months or more but it seems like different strokes for different folks.

Of course I am probably as emotional as a chick this week after my friend died...but it was handled very poorly by the Pres

Yeah, we're about one personal comment away from a lock. Keep it clean, boys.

Why? Why is my post-match PM not good enough? Would you have RPed HARDER if you knew you didn't have a rematch? If you're champ, RP hard. Period. Other people can hold the belt.

Absolute. First. I've heard of this. Assuming you're referring to waiting that long for another title shot. And I'm a poor communicator?

Sure was. I sent you a respectful PM and replied respectfully to your first cranky one. Hey, until you did an RP attacking ME and started sniping in this thread, I was quite prepared to just go ahead and see where you took things, and not concern myself with how upset you may or may not have been (I was given a heads up by somebody regarding your temper tantrum state fresh Tuesday morning).

I don't recall ever hearing/reading Ryan say that you'll never get a title shot again. Just that it won't happen right away.
