Remo vs Golden is a bit of a trap match. It seems obvious on paper - and it'll probably still get a good rating (maybe 80ish) - but neither can sell particularly well and the match rating will suffer for it. If I ever want to run that match - especially at Supreme Challenge - I add a Bret Starr, ZWB, Randy Unleashed, Joey Morgan or - conveniently - Tommy Cornell (!) to fix that flaw. Personally I would run the triple threat, but if you're having to pick one then Cornell will probably get you a better rating (so long as his time decline isn't too bad). And he's better in angles too.

Yeah, that's an interesting direction they're taking things. When Rhea comes back the fans are going to make her a face (more than she already is), and I don't think Dom should be turning any time soon given he's one of the hottest heels in the company. So I wonder if he's betraying Rhea for Liv

Hi Arlie, Could I be added to the Dynasty writers group too please? Been about a few years since my last one and looking to do another soon!

Hey folks, Sorry for the delay in getting something up, work has continued to be rather insane for me in the last few days - the last few weeks, if I'm being honest - and it has significantly impacted my writing time. Which really sucks. And it leads me onto the main point of this post... I've had a hard think about this over the past month or so (basically since Total Mayhem went up). My original goal was to get to Total Mayhem and see where we were after that, with the intention of maybe doing a full year if my schedule held up and people were enjoying it. Well we made it there, and I couldn't be more proud of how it went, or more grateful for the engagement I've received along the way. You guys have made this great fun. But with the way things are going now I don't think it's going to be possible for me to continue putting out a diary of any reasonable quality while my real life commitments are so strained. So I think, for this diary at least, this is going to have to be the - rather unceremonious - end. I'd like to try and get this weeks show up but I haven't even had a chance to run the show in-game, let alone write it up, so that's very unlikely to happen in the near future. So really, I just want to say thank you to everyone who read or got involved. It legitimately meant the world to me to see people reading my writing and prediction what they thought might be coming next. Sorry that this is coming out of the blue to a certain extent; I've been swimming against the tide for a few weeks now but I've just had to accept the frustrating reality of my current situation. Thank you again, and I look forward to reading what the rest of you are writing!

Quick heads up to say that last week's prediction scores have been delayed slightly because work has gone a bit nuts for me. That should go up tomorrow along with Saturday Night Showcase, then we'll be onto next week's Total Wrestling.

Haha, I'm flattered that mine got used as an example. But honestly, it really isn't that hard. I just essentially create a power point presentation and then save it as a PDF and upload it to Docdroid. There's very little graphical work on my side beyond figuring out a general layout and colour scheme I'm going for. And the main reason I moved from the traditional style of HTML formatting in a forum post (the kind Historian does) is because I want to have my diary backed up somewhere and it's much easier to back up a single PDF than a bunch of html. I like the traditional look just as much as this newer kind though . Presentation is just the icing on the cake anyway, it's the writing and the characterisation that I tend to read diaries for.

<p>Hey guys,</p><p> </p><p> This is a weird question, but does anyone else feel like the AI is cheating a bit on the scores in the image below? I can't figure out how SWF's workers are pulling these ratings and I'm not sure if it's a bug or not.</p><p> </p><p> <img alt="Edxzm7E.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Edxzm7E.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> For reference, this is SWF - a popularity-based fed. And SWF have been churning out main events like this with these same few workers for months now. Here is the worker's popularity next to their performance in this match:</p><p> </p><p> Atom Smasher: Popularity 76, Performance 93 (!!!!)</p><p> Bret Star: Popularity 75, Performance 81</p><p> John Greed: Popularity 65, Performance 73</p><p> Rocky Golden: Popularity 92, Performance 100</p><p> </p><p> Really don't want this to sound like sour grapes or anything, those scores just seem off to me, especially Atom Smasher.</p>
