<p>At the rate Occasional_Z is going, I think he's going to have a show up by the November 1 deadline, so here goes...</p><p> </p><p>

It has everything. Great backstage segments, hilarious worker profiles (c/o the lovely Kay Fabe), and what I'm sure would be great shows. Oh, and THE ARCHITECT is there. THE ARCHITECT would cry foul if a diary where THE ARCHITECT plays a central role in and out of the ring is not nominated!</p>

The quality of the event was flawless. Every match has been handled to perfection, especially the Pre-Main Event and the Main Event, with a Sting that takes the limelight.</p>

<p>CVERSE NOMINEE:</p><p>

CGC: On With The Show by Self</p><p>

<a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=523118" rel="external nofollow">http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=523118</a></p><p>

My current favorite diary on the board and almost got me to start up a CGC game. Between sparkly vampire Trent Shaffer and "Poison", the characters are excellent and the write-ups are brief, but meaningful.</p><p> </p><p>

REAL WORLD:</p><p>

WWF: The Golden Age...and Beyond by The Final Countdown</p><p>

<a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=523965" rel="external nofollow">http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=523965</a></p><p>

Last month's Spotlight winner gets the full treatment this month. What else is there to say about this dynasty? Feels like an alternate version of the WWF in the 1980s from Hart's faux-win against DiBiase to the debut of the Bad Guy. Can't wait for more.</p><p> </p><p>

MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT:</p><p>

LOSER - The Roster Breakdown</p><p>

<a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525658" rel="external nofollow">http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525658</a></p><p>

Just read it. Laugh.</p>

For Monthly Spotlight I nominate <strong>Jack Bruce's heel turn in SWF: Sunday Nights Counting Lights by 3rdStringPG</strong>, brother, cause that will take the SWF all the way to Global, brother, and will lead to an A* feud between Jack Bruce and Angry Gilmore, brother.</p><p> </p><p>

Honourable mention goes to the backstage report done by some jabroni, brother, cause that will lead to a good future storyline backstage, brother, and maybe even some people getting fired, brother, thus enabling more Klubb burial shovel usage, brother. LOSER was great as well, brother, but someone stole my nomination, brother.</p>

Really appreciate the nomination, brother! But lemme tell you something, brother, the heel turn took place in post #731, brother. That's seven-three-one, brother! So whatcha gonna do, brother, when Jack Bruce's New Model Army runs roughshod on you? :D

<p>Okay...</p><p> </p><p>

I'm gonna start with Matt Shannon's <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525636" rel="external nofollow">Storms on the Horizon: WWF 1991</a>. Because his shows (albeit all 2 of them) have been really fun to read and quite well written.</p><p> </p><p>

I'll follow that with your own <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525457" rel="external nofollow">WCW 1994: Life with Hogan</a> cause dammit angel I can't not stick to a diary that reinvents the Horsemen like you have.</p><p> </p><p>

And finally, for SOTM, the aforementioned reinvention of your Four Horsemen from <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1931262&postcount=43" rel="external nofollow">this post</a> in your Life with Hogan. Because I'd have never thought of that, and it's so good it hurts.</p>

<p>Real World - RingRider = <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525785" rel="external nofollow">WWF: The New Generation</a></p><p> </p><p>

<em>I don't read enough Real World mod diaries, but this one has caught my attention. It's early days, but it's going well - the retro design and the action shots really stand out.</em></p><p> </p><p>

Cornellverse - Arwink = <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=524068" rel="external nofollow">HGC:The Rise and Fall of Hollyweird</a></p><p> </p><p>

<em>Storytelling and characters are amazing, I've accepted his versions of the characters as </em><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">the</span></em><em> version of the characters</em></p><p> </p><p>

Monthly Spotlight - The Doctor = <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525821" rel="external nofollow">United States Pro Wrestling - The Future Of Tradition</a> - <em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Debut show</span></em></p><p> </p><p>

<em>I probably would have nominated 3rd String's Jack Bruce heel turn if I had done this earlier, but having seen this pop up, I decided it was worth a mention for an excellent debut show</em></p>

Wow; thank you Occasional_Z. To have a vote for ANYTHING after just 24 hours is... Unbelievable, so thank you VERY much.

 

C-Verse - ESE Eternal Suffering.

 

I've seen this diary throughout what has been almost a year. The shows are of a really good quality they are consistant in their stories and fueds. Always an enjoyable read. I should really comment on it more often!
