For CVerse, there are few diaries I have ever enjoyed reading more than Self's CGC. He fills each and every show with characters and plots that are the best on the board and some of the characterizations have quickly become canon in my mind, including Zeus, Stevie Grayson, and Eddie Chandler. Plus his re-imagined versions of characters that people have already given a strong voice to in other projects (Sammy Bach) deserves note.

 

Just a great diary. HOF worthy.

For Real World/Mod, one of the only diaries that has been keeping my attention is jhd1 and Angeldelayette's Bragging Rights dual dynasty. Not only am I a fan of that particular era in wrestling's past, but I am excited to see a multi-player effort get off the ground and actually make it past a few shows. It seems to me that the mutli-player aspect is the one as yet conquered land in the TEW universe. WWE vs WCW is an obvious starting point and these guys are doing it the right way.

The C-Verse Diary I am nominating is Zergon's ESE Eternal Suffering diary. It's not the most detailed diary but it does give you everything that you would want in the diary. It gives brief match and angle details while still being able to tell a solid story within each feud. He also gives extremely detailed analysis on each show, in regarding the show itself, the predictions and other interesting tidbits about the shows outcome and how the game is working as a whole. However, it's major drawing point is how important the readers are. Without the readers, this diary wouldn't function the way Zergon wants it too and he has done a marvelous job including everyone within to be apart of the diary.

 

For the monthly spotlight, I nominate Nevermore's British Wrestling With BALLS for his interactive fan profiles and the way he implements these profiles into each show. The fans of the BALLroom are just as important as the wrestlers of the BALLroom and that is something that is rarely referenced to in the diaries that I have seen.

CVerse DOTM: Nevermore looks to be topping his supreme effort with MOSC: The Worst of British Wrestling with <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=527601" rel="external nofollow">British Wrestling with BALLS</a>, a great look into a hardcore promotion and a terrific, and colorful, start. Nevermore's use of Youtube clips, admittedly crass sense of humor and use of fan-characters make an incredible story that is unique among dynasties.

For Mod DOTM: I'd like to nominate Captain2's <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=527557" rel="external nofollow">Making an iMPACT!: Total Nonstop Action.</a> It's updated frequently so reading this diary has become a part of my daily routine now. It's always interesting to read and there's been some great twists and turns throughout this one that have left a few of us readers surprised.

For one of my mod nominees, I'm going with WCW vs WWF: The Monday Night Wars by CPBHBK and daulten. I love their head-to-head format, I think it could potentially change the way Monday Night War diaries are run.

 

My second mod nominee will be one of my favorite diaries running right now, WCW 2000: New Millennium, New Booking Committee by Jingo. His take on the time period has been a great read, and it's a great look at an alternate history where the Radicalz stayed in WCW.

 

For Spotlight, I'm going to say angeldelayette's WWF In Your House I from Bragging Rights. THAT ENDING. THAT ****ING ENDING.

Monthly Spotlight Nominee: It's about **** time CQI13 got some attention for his great writing in <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=527491" rel="external nofollow">USPW: Time For A Change</a>, and his Week 3 February Edition of American Wrestling is arguably his best yet. <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1995440&postcount=30" rel="external nofollow">The Tyson Baine/Alicia Strong/Nicky Champion post-match brawl is detailed and concise, with classic heel-face booking, and great use of finishers in a non-match segment</a>. The brawl stands out in the terrific storytelling of the go-home episode for USPW: House Party 1.

<p><em>Just got through reading Beejus' Bash at the Beach 1995, from his WCW '94: War of the Thrones diary...</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

</em><a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1994989&postcount=747" rel="external nofollow"><em>You can find The Bash here...</em></a></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

And I have to say it was fantastic! So I'm nominating it for Monthly Spotlight for three reasons:</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

1). The Sting/Rude segment, which I know I wasn't alone in enjoying!</em></p><p><em>

2). The Giant (Big Show) making his debut.</em></p><p><em>

and 3). I can honestly say, that because of Beejus, I actually WANT to see Sylvester Stalone versus Vader... in a wrestling match!!! </em><img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Right now I foresee this diary going for a long time as I literally cannot wait until the next show. Am glad that everyone enjoyed the ending to In Your House as well. I couldn't help but use the 'Dusty Finish' as that was one of, if not the, biggest main events that I've had on the diary so far.</p>

<p>I just saw that you can change a CVerse Mod of the month for a second RW Diary of the month so here is my second nomination.</p><p> </p><p>

I had alot of choices from Dynasties I like, but in the end I choose... <a href="http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=525234&page=51" rel="external nofollow">WWE 2004 The Hangover By RKOwnage</a>. I picked this Dynasty because, I loved How he executed the Beat the Clock Sprint, the Debut of Bryan Lloyd, and because I enjoy and fill like all of the feuds are nicely done and a great read.</p>

PWG - rise of the Guerrilla by Gandalf</p><p> </p><p>

it's fresh and not the same old WWE/WCW type of diary. As an indy promoter, he got hit with a giant curve ball right off the bat as tag team champion Nick Jackson broke his collarbone wrestling in another league, so he has that to deal with. Should be interesting</p><p> </p><p>

It's a nice presentation and layout as well</p>
