  7. You may not nominate yourself

  8. All nominations must include a reason

  9. Nominations do NOT need a second. So, once a diary has been nominated PLEASE do NOT nominate it again!

<p>Nominating <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=526316" rel="external nofollow">NYCW: Living in the Past</a> by Voeltzwagon and <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=526269" rel="external nofollow">SWF: Struggle for Supremacy</a> by Charasmatic Enigma for Cornellverse DOTM.</p><p> </p><p>

I'm going with the former because the diary continues in Voeltzwagon's tradition of writing great shows (with great announcer dialogue, as a "value-added feature", if you can call it that), and because he's gone with NYCW, a company that I've always found a bit challenging to work with.</p><p> </p><p>

As for the latter, I enjoyed Charasmatic Enigma's FBIPW diary (yes, the one that turned me into an #AlanPawent mark), and I'm loving what he's doing with the SWF right now - nothing fancy, just good, smart booking and standout show writing.</p>

<p>Rather than start a new thread, I figured I'd throw this here.</p><p> </p><p>

Would anyone be interested in a comprehensive Diary Hall of Fame?</p><p> </p><p>

My thoughts would be a compilation from TEW '05, '07, '08, '10, and '13. </p><p> </p><p>

Just as a baseline, I was thinking that inclusion into the HOF would require one of the following criteria...</p><p> </p><p>

- writer is a member of the Hall of Fame (will receive their own "wing")</p><p>

- diaries with over 50,000 views AND over 500 replies (will be placed in universe/promotion wing)</p><p>

- a Monthly/Yearly wing (i.e. all the award winners)</p><p> </p><p>

I would need help in compiling the data, mostly links from angel, mistaken, and a few others who have handled awards in the past. </p><p> </p><p>

If there's no interest, then no biggie. I've been working with christmas_ape on the Active Index and thought it might be a nice thing to have for all the writers.</p>

For Cornellverse DOTM I would like to nominate <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=523798" rel="external nofollow">Booking FCW... Carribean Style</a> by flavioooo. It had been on hiatus, but seeing the show go up yesterday reminded me how fun of a diary it is and it is good to see it back. That and Leper Messiah has an army now. How can you not like that?!

Monthly Spotlight: Survivor Series in The Lloyd's RW: WWE THREE Brands....

 

It was awesome and is a great example of how to book a SvS type pay-per-view.

 

Wow thanks man :) i got a nomination for my One Night in Canada ppv last month, and was very surprised as I thought it was poor! lol. But the Survivor Series one, I really enjoyed writing it and putting it out there, and the feedback has been insane! :D So thanks again for the nod man :D

Please see rules 5 and 8. Thank you!

 

Hem hem... just testing, of course, you passed, good work, let us never speak of this again... :o

 

I nominate Self's CGC: The Show Must Go On for C-Verse DOTM.

 

Self has repeatedly show. that he's willing to mix things up while still keeping the essential character of the promotion - the DeColts are still the main attraction, but they've just been banned from challenging for the World Title. Joey Poison turns Heel (and invincible) by drinking a Secret Magic Potion! Almighty Zeus is not just a bronzed god - he's actually a god!

 

I would also like to nominate the Last Man Standing Rumble from the same diary for the Monthly Spotlight. A big, complex match, with a simple presentation that makes it easy to follow, and good storytelling throughout.

<p>First mod nominee from me this month goes to TheBigBad1013's <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525192" rel="external nofollow">WCW: The Quest For The Lost Glory</a>. I've nominated it in the past, and my reason still holds true; it's one of the better, more lasting WCW Reborn diaries around.</p><p> </p><p>

Both of my other noms go to Anderz and his <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525593&page=3" rel="external nofollow">WWF: Attitude Is Everything</a>. Anderz has the Attitude era down very well, and even though he says that WCW are kicking his ass in the game itself, he's holding his own in my eyes with shows like <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1947051&postcount=43" rel="external nofollow">his Royal Rumble</a> which has a very good blend of easing away from what happened in real life as well as keeping going what has to continue until Mania. Plus, his push of Owen Hart in the wake of the screwjob has been a breath of fresh air.</p>
