In many ways, both you and Ritchardo were playing "The Ballad of the Four Horsemen", and the game ending here with Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard splintering the group is in many ways the perfect end. The way the game went, this was the logical conclusion all along. <p> </p><p> I can't wait to see what you bring us next time! <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> This really was a Horsemen story down at its very core. I won't delve too far into what I had planned next but 1990 would've been about Arn and Tully's war for much of it. Thank you for being here throughout the whole ride. My next project (the one I actually had planned, rather than my PGHW side project) is slowly coming along and will feature a whole different cast of characters - suffice to say I won't be hitting any psychology caps again any time soon.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="smartman" data-cite="smartman" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="38832" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Oof, I can't believe one of those two didn't have 85 psych, especially since it had been going on for a few years. I fully understand ending it at Starrcade. Just like WM is the logical end for WWF, so is Starrcade for JCP. Look forward to both of you guys writing TEW16 dynasties.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> If that main event had scored what I felt it deserved (95+) then I might have tried to keep this going a little longer. It deflated me and it's why it's taken me so long to come back in here and respond. With hindsight, I'm glad I stopped when I did and hopefully WM6 will be the great finale this project deserves. Thanks for your support.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="The Final Countdown" data-cite="The Final Countdown" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="38832" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Thrilled to hear this, and can't wait to see what you have in store next. I was a fan of your work long before you joined TGAAB, and I'm sure I'll enjoy whatever you bring us in the future. Depending on when Beejus wraps up War of the Thrones and begins his next project, as well as when the Summer of Punk mod is released, I may be the last straggler to make my way over to the new forum. Hopefully I won't be a forgotten man by then! <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> </p><p> I could probably write several paragraphs thanking you for your contributions to this game world, but somehow it seems more appropriate to hold off until after I get through Mania and am ready to close the book on this work. For now, I'll just say thanks for not only enriching this game universe, but providing a great dynasty all on its own.</p><p> </p><p> Oh, and Starrcade was awesome! I cheated and read the results beforehand, but knowing Anderson was going to win didn't diminish my enjoyment of the show at all. That was a really fitting way to wrap up the story in JCP.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Thank you for letting me be a part of this. I feel like it has improved both my writing and booking beyond recognition; I owe a lot of that to you. The plan for Arn to win was in place way, way back and I feared I had telegraphed it far too much. For you to have enjoyed my efforts means I've done a good job.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="BHK6" data-cite="BHK6" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="38832" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Sorry to see you put this diary down. I knew really followed anything out of WWF as a child so new nothing about half of your roster. I remember Tully as a Brainbuster not a Four Horseman. I enjoyed learning more about this era. Your build up of Arn was legendary. Too bad about that bad psych score because the Tully/Arn story line would have been gold.<p> </p><p> It was one of my favourite reads, next to TGAAB, you were the "minor leagues" after all. <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The little shots that you guys took at each other heading me laughing and people looking at me. LOL literally.</p><p> </p><p> Can't wait to see what you had in store for 1990. Just who do the Horseman war explode? Where does Flair and Steamboat do next? Who else you pick up from the WWF? And when to the Steiner Brothers win the tag team titles?</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I'm glad to have played a part in exposing you to some different characters. In truth I was very much a WWF fan in my youth and everything else has come as an observer well after the fact. I'm glad you enjoyed the read, and the playful shots that snuck in now and then.</p><p> </p><p> I'll have a detailed post once TFC has wrapped up outlining some of my plans for 1990. But as you can see, Flair was always bound for New York.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="tg01" data-cite="tg01" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="38832" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>I just wanted to add a message of gratitude for your work on this Dynasty Anderz....it has taken me about a year to read through everything, well almost everything still not 100% caught up with the WWF, but it was an amazing ride along the way. As it was getting closer to the end and I saw that Countdown was ending at WM VI I was sort of hoping that Starrcade would be the end for you as it just seemed so natural a place to end. Wish you all the best with your new project and in life!</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Thanks for taking the time to read through the whole project. I know it means a lot to me, and no doubt TFC and Ritchardo appreciate your words as well.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="BlueStar" data-cite="BlueStar" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="38832" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Great, Great, GREAT read!!</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Thanks buddy, thanks for being sa part of it from the beginning.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> You'll notice that I've finally updated the Hall of Champions.. Arn deserves his place in history.</p>
