8-man Diary in TEW2013?

[foolinc]

MooseMan?! Look out for Brett Fraser, he's a dangerous moose hunter doncha know.

 

I'm really looking forward to seeing the crossovers that end up developing in this dynasty... the potential for character development across so many people could create some incredibly unlikely stars and the demand for Angry Gilmore when his contract comes up is likely to create the single biggest bidding war in TEW history, which in itself is going to be awesome to watch as everyone tries to outdo each other.

 

Just a few days until you all get your hands on the demo... I can't wait to be able to talk to everyone about the Cornellverse. Are we all still planning to take over as the canon Head Booker of the company we're booking anyways?

 

I'm guessing that's what I'm going to do, but then again I planned on figuring out the tone and style of the diary once I lock down the promotion I'm going to play.

 

Can't wait to see the new Cornellverse. Looks like the perfect way to get back to writing some musings (silly work getting back into the way)!

Are we all still planning to take over as the canon Head Booker of the company we're booking anyways?

 

That's what I'm planning on. But as you know, my plans may or may not work out.

[Eidenhoek]

RAW. I've already decided that I'm going to try to use terrible, terrible editing and Powerpoint to youtube every one of my shows. Ever.

 

COMPLETE WITH AWESOME THEME MUSIC.

 

Which means I'm going to abandon that idea after about 30 minutes of work for 1 minute of terrible, terrible output.

 

Also, this is assuming I do in and don't do my solo 8-man thing.

 

Which means I'm going to do my solo 8-man thing. /shrug

For Dropbox: We just need an email address you intend to use so that a current user can send you a referral link.

 

So far I know Derek, D-Lyrium and I have accounts already. FIN and Self have stated that they need to sign up, and I'm presuming there are others who need to as well. I don't want to hog all the referrals, so let's do this:

 

FIN, PM your preferred email to Derek if he doesn't already have it.

Self, PM your preferred email to D-Lyrium if he doesn't already have it.

 

Anyone else who doesn't have Dropbox, post here and I'll take whoever speaks up next.

[Bull]

I already have dropbox, and my e-mail is in my profile page.

[Derek B]

Don't worry about me needing more Dropbox space, I don't use it for anything other than TEW so I doubt I'll be needing the space any time soon.

 

Release day keeps edging closer and closer, I can't wait for everyone to be able to play the game even if it is only for the first month. Just being able to see who everyone in this ends up being will make for an interesting landscape, as I'm sure once we all get our hands on the Cornellverse there will be people searching for inspiration and looking for new stories. I'm looking forward to knowing who I'm going to be playing with/against, it really will have an effect on my booking and it's gonna be fun to see how things go with so many human players in one game world. I get the feeling it's going to be very different from 1 human vs the world, especially since we're all writing for our people.

This one sounds like it's going to be awesome to follow! Maybe those of us not playing should try and predict who the number 1 ranked fed will be at the end of the first year and some of the award winners? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

[Wallbanger]

I'm thinking I'll be dedicating at least some of my streaming time to 8RoW stuff in a 'global recap' kind of show. I don't want to use that game as my live booking show, though, I'd have to do something else, like my International House of Hardcore umbrella org idea, which could be a diary in and of itself. Of course, I already have an entirely different idea that I want to run with, but I'm scared to pull the trigger on it because I don't want it to fizzle partway through because I'm overloaded...

[Wallbanger]

While I'm thinking about it: have we gotten a new eighth player committed to the game?

[Self]

<p>I was holding off on sorting Dropbox until the demo was out and I could see the data. The cverse could easily change in ways that would cause me to drop out. I'm not going to commit to a diary unless I can do something special. I believe I have that, and have been looking at other TEW10 promotions to see how much I can salvage with a different cast (4C? No. AAA? Surprisingly works) but there's a limit. Adam could crush my dreams and break my heart. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

I'll be busy all day Sunday. Which is good that I won't be constantly refreshing the forums, but means I won't be check stuff out until Monday. I'm looking forward to getting things locked down in terms of players and their promotions.</p>

[Psycho Sam]

Same reason as to why I'm holding off updating my WWE 13 diary until Monday. Want to experiment, and maybe even do a diary based of my demo experiences. #CheapPlug

[FINisher]

We have atleast two nominees up for the 8th player position but I think it'll be best to wait and see how Cornellverse looks before choosing anyone. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> We might be playing the game in 48hrs, easily.. Wow..

[Derek B]

I can't wait for everyone to finally get a hold of the game, I'm so excited that I'm probably not gonna be able to sleep tonight... and that's with me already knowing what's going on! I can only imagine how excited everyone else is!

 

But the main thing I'm mentioning is that we should definitely wait until we all have the full game before we start. Just in case there are data things that change between the beta week and the full release, which is always possible when new stats like Fog of War have been added.

Aww thank you guys! I'm getting quite the birthday present in the form of TEW2013 demo tonight <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

So I'll be the first to chicken out of previous commitments (second, technically )... now that it's out in the open, I can finally say...

 

I hatehatehatehate the new WLW. Regular schedule, in Japan? What is this?! I'm definitely not 'feeling' WLW as I did in 2010.

 

I'm still really, really up for the project, but if nobody has any objections, I'd like to switch my company to 21CW, with MAW or 4C as a backup if anyone really has a major problem with that.
