After a long absence, I've been bitten by the TEW Diary bug again and am curious what people might want me to write about. I'd like to start CCW up again (see link below) but this would be the 3rd restart and I'd actually like someone to want to read it...

 

Anyway, the final motivator is that the GDS forums are no longer blocked as porn by my workplace, so here are my thoughts:

 

 

1) CCW Continued: I don't have the saves anymore, but I can always just hard-edit the information into the game and just start where I left off. Here's the link:

2) CCW Re-start: I've got some different ideas and the DB has been updated quite a bit since it started. Same premise: Ask the audience for some of the best of the worst that they'd like to see, throw them together under Leo Davis' leadership and see where it goes. This time I'll throw in the added challenge of making it a 0/0/0 fed (although to be honest, it was never that far off from being one before).

 

3) 4C: When I'm not playing a 0/0/0 fed, this is my go-to. I'd probably focus more on the backstage dynamics and characters involved in the "little fed that could." My idea would be to narrate more from the role of an observer, so although the head booker in-game would still be "The Grand Avatar" for the story it would explore Joey Poison and Troy booking the shows. Maybe it's just me but I imagine both Joey and Troy to be very "strong" personalities with very distinct ideas about how the promotion would book.

 

4) WEXXV HAPPY FUN TIME: I proposed this awhile ago. Basically the plot is that WEXXV gets bought out and turned into a crazy horrifying japanese game-show. This would have very little actual wrestling in it and mostly just be wacky craziness. "Contestants" (i.e. tour contracts) would compete against the WEXXV roster in what would amount to a bunch of handicap matches.

I vote for 2). There's somethng appealing about CCW's total crapness, and it's a story that it's very easy to get involved in.

 

Thanks! I didn't think anyone really read it :D

 

edit: After re-reading it though, I realize how quickly I had stopped. I didn't get a chance to even begin any of the three major storylines going on, and my favorite part (the Hanson Invitational) was completely undone.

Man, after re-reading my old diaries, all my unfinished storylines started dancing through my head. I know you're asking for 4C, but I just don't think I could get into a 4C diary while I feel CCW is left unfinished. On the flip side I feel like I'm pulling "A Deezy" by starting a 3rd diary on the same premise but I can offer a couple things:

 

1) No Steve Flash! The same goes with about 95% of the other "go-to" C-Verse characters. I make an allowance for Davis Wayne Newton, but that's mainly because I find "Davis vs. Davis" (DWN vs. Leo Davis) fights amusing as the two are complete opposites (DWN is a talented youth while Leo is a talentless veteren).

 

2) Things will be slightly different this time around. I'll probably be re-using (after some editing) a fair amount of the original writing, but I plan for this to go longer then Apirl and none of the storyline climaxes had ever been revealed, so no real biggie. Mainly the opening background posts but it should quickly diverge. For example: Bob Casey will not get the belt, among other changes, but that's a pretty big one.

 

 

Anyway, I'm giving this one last try. If it doesn't work, that's it, no more 'CCW' and I'll move onto 4C.
