So, it's been a while since i've posted here. Over 2 years to be exact. Sorry about dropping out on the testing team way back when fellas! It's been a bit of a whirlwind y'see. Now i'm in the land of Tian Long and Gao Xi :p

 

I've still found a bit of time to get my dose of ThunderVerse-ing in though, especially recently. I finally sat down for a proper CLLM game rather than my usual ILL fare, and devised a calendar full of tournaments and just the one top title, in an attempt to both imitate and fix our reality's lucha. It worked out quite nicely, although the neverending trios matches on TV do take their toll booking-wise.

 

I have to say, Vice would definitely cure my squash-match itch. It's the only style of American TV booking i'm especially comfortable with, and whilst it certainly works for CWT, i just feel like i can't get away with it in the modern lands of AWF and PWI. The thought of a whole new scene - not to mention getting a shot at some retro lucha and, of course, a puro scene free of LETHAL and instead loaded with a whole new host of gaijins and not-so-wacky regional promotions (sorry FKPW!) - fills me with a thunderous sense of joy. See what i did there?

 

The Christmas alt pack was fantastic by the way - bewildered by Chaperone's new/old look, curious to see what the universal spin on Oz is, and I have to say I can't see Cloud James any other way now. Top notch stuff.

 

Keep up the good work lads :)

I'm starting a little project with GAW (nostalgia really hit me this time) and well, I love the Thunderverse, I love this forum, so why not share this little thing with you guys. Hope you like them.

If nobody minds, I need some assistance with some names for The Club.

 

One thing i need are names for two big events on june and december respectively

 

another is the fact I plan to repackage and rename Fumihiko Osagari and Naonubu Anami who are going to be allies to Yokai Dragon but i am stuck on weather I am going to keep them unmasked or not, either way though I plan to give them new names and maybe a stable name for Yokai Dragon and the tag team who is gonna be repackaged? they are going to be a mysterious/underworld themed stable, underworld as in dark, same theme as Yokai Dragon if that makes sense

 

reposted from another thread since i felt it makes sense to put it here

Not yet. It's a massive task and right now, we're still going through bios and title histories to get everything right.

 

Also remember the team is only human. Other priorities and things do and have came up during the development cycle.

 

Regardless of how, if and when. If we one day get this, I will love it. One thing I wish the C-Verse included was heavy historical info even with workers no longer wrestling. It's really too much to ask, but one-day maybe a board effort could piece together stuff pre and post 97 until whenever the first C-Verse was released (2005??? :confused: I forget). I would probably "mark out" :eek: if I could start a "Dawn of cable TV" era type C-Verse game and try and run with it, waiting for people like Mr. Cornell, McFly, et. all. start showing up.

 

It might just be the wrestling geek in me but one of the cool things about wrestling is its history. Reading, watching or learning about things before you were born or even a fan. Having this look back perspective in your data as well as the C-Verse would be fantastic. With either a Thunder or C-Verse game as you would have historical "landmarks" lets call them to pass. Such as how many titles or times wrestler "x" has won a tournament, wrestled in the main event, drawn the most money in a country or world.

I definitely agree on you with the historical point. We are still working on Vice but it's looking more likely we'll hold off for 2016. Organic bios is something that is extremely helpful for historical mods and future workers (or so I've interpreted it to be, I may be wrong! :p).

 

We're still in discussions about what to do fully however so, eh, watch this space? ;)

The biggest "hill" (so to speak) is the retooling of the bios and organic bios will help us with that aspect - rather than stripping back all the bios and thinking "What needs to stay, what doesn't?" we now will be able (in theory) to just say "Worker X is an American male </p><div class="ipsEmbeddedVideo" contenteditable="false"><div><iframe width="200" height="150" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/N7awnRAdbPk?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" title="American Males Theme Song (CD Quality)"></iframe></div></div>" and then let the game over time fill in the rest.

Return of the mack! Become A Star is back! Originally ran by jhd in the first iteration of the Thunderverse [then called the jhdverse], Become A Star was the first competition ran by the Thunderverse and resulted in Johnny Hollywood winning an AWF contract and Iago de Brun heading to PWI!

 


 

 

 


It’s a little different this time around however. Instead of four promotions, it’s down to one. AWF are looking for new young stars and they want you to submit your application today! The prize? A three year long written contract with AWF itself and getting the rub shoulders with the top stars in professional wrestling. These will be included in a port of Platinum we've decided to create for TEW2016 in order to not keep anyone waiting for a while to play the Thunderverse on the new game!

 


All you need to do is create a character and write up to three short promos (rules can be found below, promo requirements will be revealed with each promo round). Each member of the forum may only submit one character and we, the judging panel [judging panel shall remain nameless and faceless to prevent anyone attempting to influence our decisions], will whittle these entrants down until we’ve got our chosen 16. Of these, only two will be victorious. The winner will receive the fabled three year secured deal with AWF and the second winner will receive a one year long deal with the promotion.

 


For the sixteen who make it to the main show, you will be put through four elimination rounds [MH EDIT 30/03: I miscounted, it's three rounds] - for those familiar with the first Become A Star, the process will be very similar. Don’t worry though, as with the first Become A Star the entrants who don’t make it to the dance will still be entered into the data.

 


The requirements for entry are clearly going to differ depending on how far through the process you get. If you were to reach the final then you would need to have written three short promos (no more than eight lines per round) on subjects we will provide nearer the time. Each promo will have a set time limit of three days to write from the announcement of the round's subject (this might be extended if people struggle).

 


RULES OF BECOME A STAR


1). Each forum member may only enter 1 superstar.


2). Each superstar must be a male active wrestler. In the original BAS, we limited this to being active in the US. For this go? It’s worldwide, AWF are unlocking the borders in their search for the hottest young property in wrestling.


3). Each superstar must be an original creation who has not featured in any other publicly released mod (including the Cverse, GDS-Verse or LoNdOn-Verse).


4). Each participant should be willing to write a maximum of three promos of no more than eight lines each.


5). Each participant must enjoy themselves. Or else.

 


And whilst this isn’t an official rule, it’s a guideline that would be well served to remember. We’re not looking for a Thunderverse version of Shinsuke Nakamura or Finn Balor [as in a big star in Japan who has come to AWF to seek a new challenge]. We’re looking for original characters and ideas from entrants. With that said, we’re not looking for radically off the wall characters and ideas that are so out there - no giants of wrestling with the agility of a luchador.

 


Submissions will begin as soon as I [MHero] have posted the relevant form - if you would like to ask any questions about anything to do with Become A Star before you enter then feel free to post here, or send me a private message.

 


Deadlines for submissions close on the 15th of March.

<p>Remember, all entries must be an active male wrestler, must not be a direct copy of a real world wrestler [taking inspiration is all good though] and must be a somewhat "realistic" character [no entrants that are like three foot tall but somehow able to be a power god and slam people twice their height or no giants who are the world's greatest luchador.] Please remember it is a one character limit though! So no dual entries of like tag teams.</p><p> </p><p> ALSO, we will be tempering stats so that they fall in line with the rest of the game. No one from this competition will be a world beating wrestler at start.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center"><p><strong>THUNDERVERSE BECOME A STAR ENTRY FORM</strong></p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Name:</strong></p><p> <strong>Short Name:</strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Biography</strong> <span style="font-size:8px"><strong>(Please try and make sure this fits the character limit imposed by the game.

THUNDERVERSE BECOME A STAR ENTRY FORM</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Name:Somebody</p><p>

Short Name:Somebody</p><p> </p><p>

Biography (Please try and make sure this fits the character limit imposed by the game. We may make slight changes to the bio to fit the mod): </p><p> </p><p>

There is not a whole lot known about Somebody including his real name. What is know is that he began working at the local wrestling promotion at the age of 14, cleaning and things like that. In his free time he would train with the wrestlers there. At the age of 17 he began wrestling for the promotion, and soon became their champion. He sort of burst onto the scene at a show held in Michigan when he answered an challenge from Kris Phoenix, who then went shoot fight on Somebody. Somebody surprised everyone with a submission victory. A true master of the mat and submission specialist, Somebody is a threat in the ring. That and his eagerness to fight seem to have connected well with the fans. He's not great on the mic, but that doesn't matter much as he'd rather fight than talk anyways.</p><p> </p><p>

Please give a brief description of your characters appearance. References to real life people or existing TEW renders would be helpful, but please be as specific as possible.

<strong>Name:</strong><span style="color:#000000;"> Showtime Stevens</span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;">

</span><strong>Short Name:</strong><span style="color:#000000;"> Showtime</span></p><p>

<strong>Biography</strong><span style="color:#000000;">: "The Fantastic" Showtime Stevens is a ludicrously charismatic worker from northern England, having only joined the wrestling business recently. Before switching careers, Stevens had spent the majority of his young life as an actor, before deciding to become a wrestler instead of going to Hollywood. Despite having a fairly strong Geordie accent, Stevens has a natural ability to connect with anyone watching him. This is aided by his fantastic versatility, capable of playing the role of a smooth-talking charmer, a tough working-class man's man or a fun-loving drunk. On top of this, Stevens has a look to die for and certainly possesses the "X" factor. </span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;">

Unfortunately, Stevens' brilliance on the mic is hampered by his lack of brilliance in the ring. Very green and without much experience, his only past wrestling gig involved a messy 10 man battle royale where he accidentally broke a fellow competitor's nose. Despite this, Stevens is adamant that he will be a success.</span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;">

(Finisher) - "Spotlight Spiral" - Impact - A two-part move, the attacker lifts their opponent into a Fireman's Carry position, before dropping them and connecting with a knee to the gut. With the opponent struggling for breath, the attacker then rebounds off the rope and drives their knee into the opponent's face, knocking them out for the 3-count. </span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#000000;">

(Secondary Finisher) - "Bright Light Belter" - Impact - </span>A simple manoeuvre and the trademark of Showtime Stevens, when the opponent is on their stomach the attacker takes a few steps back to give themselves a run-up and hits a hard kick to the gut. Used as a signature to setup Stevens' "Spotlight Spiral"</p><p> </p><p>
