** The shoot date right now is 12th of April, 2020 **

 

As I sit here, typing up my thoughts, I'm reminded of some of my older diaries... I've written WWE Diaries (to varying degrees of success) FOUR times... I've dabbled in the C-Verse with NOTBPW vs CGC... 21CW... and NOTBPW again... But really and truly, all of these diaries have been in my 'comfort zone'... Sports Entertainment, the WWE style of in-ring action and non-wrestling segments... I changed NOTBPW's product to suit my writing/booking style, because I had stories to tell with the families within the two big Canadian Companies, and all the cool characters within.

 

So when TEW 2020 was just a few weeks away, I never thought THIS company would be the first one I'd want to check in on!!

 

I thought when the new game was released, my first port of call would be to check 21CW, and favourites of mine like Buff Martinez, Jay B, Jonathan Faust... Even pop over to Europe and see how Joey Beauchamp, Jase Cole and Christopher Lister are doing... Or what about Tommy Cornell... Edward Cornell... Leigh Burton... Wade Orson... Ricky Storm and Sifu?! There's so many in that part of the world that I have a fondness for.

 

Maybe I'd pop to Canada first... The DeColts and Stones are all but gone now, surely. Just Ricky and Edd holding the fort, and maybe Jack, Steve and Duane holding on to the last remnants of their careers. Where is Edd? Is he in Canada again?! Still with TCW?! But what about the other guys I loved to write for up there?! Dan DaLay, Johnny Bloodstone, John Maverick, Jacob Jett, Thrill Seeker, Joey Poison, the list is endless. Don't forget David Stone!! He'd have debuted by now. Are there any other DeColts or Stones in the database?! Debuted already? Set to debut?

 

Lucy Stone-McFly I was never too worried about, not being a fan of having a 'women's division' when I book. I feel like it's a special attraction within a company that is separate from the rest of the show. Almost like a chance to switch off our attention because it has nothing to do with the main stories. In WWE, I love the women's division, but writing it is different. You have to dedicate at least one match (out of say, 5, 6 or 7) per show, and at least one segment, to the division, and that doesn't feel like it's enough.

 

I'm digressing. I do that.

 

So THIS company, is the first one I'm going to check on...?! Really...?!

Oh man. I want to know what The Lloyd has planned!

[Bigelow Cartwheel]

Seconded.

[Bigelow Cartwheel]

Also ElliotM, hope you get your connection sorted soon dude. If you have an existing provider they should be able to provide you with some 4G backup while you get your new line provisioned.

 

Stay safe man. We're in this for a while yet.

[The Lloyd]

Thanks guys... More tomorrow...

[ElliotM]

Also ElliotM, hope you get your connection sorted soon dude. If you have an existing provider they should be able to provide you with some 4G backup while you get your new line provisioned.

 

Stay safe man. We're in this for a while yet.

Thanks man - I'm managing to use an unlimited data add-on for my mobile contract at the minute, so that seems to be working. Just glad to be able to be back writing!

[Nobby_McDonald]

Just a quick update from me - hope everyone is staying safe!

 

Had the unfortunate timing of moving house during this time and as the UK is on lockdown, cannot get any internet or TV during this time due to engineers not being allowed. So I’m stuck with no connection, meaning updating the diary is difficult. I’m hoping to get some sort of temporary connection soon as I’m itching to write and continue with the diary. If I have to connect my PC to my phones data then I will do! But anyone wondering, I’m still around and there will be an episode of Raw as soon as I can finish it off.

 

Again, hope everyone is staying safe during this crazy time

 

If you were able to, you should have postponed the house move until lockdown restrictions are eased.

 

Where in the UK are you Elliot?

 

I'm still working as I work for a company that distributes food. However, about 85% of our customers are pubs and restaurants, so all we are delivering to are care homes and the odd few pubs who are doing takeaways. We are running on a skeleton staff of 4 - me the Operations Manager, one driver, the Managing Director and one office staff who is working from home to process the orders. It's a very strange time as I go to work then come home and go nowhere else apart from the weekly shop. We have a 4 year old daughter, staying in is bloody difficult, especially as she loves football and is missing her kids football coaching, the wife is missing nipping out to the shops and I'm missing playing golf.

[Nobby_McDonald]

 

I will be getting TEW 2020, though probably not immediately upon release.

 

I will be starting a new diary and hope to run it as well as continue my long running TEW 2013 save http://www.greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=534135&page=160

 

It will be real world as I have simply never got into the C Verse. It will most likely be present day using the most realistic mod I can find.

 

Pro Wrestling... But Not Quite As You Know It... New Divisions...

The process was already complete and we had given notice on our previous property, so it would have caused some issues had we postponed. Figured it was better to get it over and done with to cause less problems in the long run. It's worked out anyway, just difficult without the internet and such, especially when everything else is practically off-limits.

 

I too am still working, we supply materials for utilities, which are an essential operation, so we've still been made to go in. Not ideal, but it's the situation we're in at the minute.

 

That sounds rough, especially considering you can't exactly explain what's going on to a 4-year old I don't imagine, haha.

[Nobby_McDonald]

She is getting into the 'spirit' of the virus.

 

Last Wednesday she drew and coloured a rainbow so big it fills half of our front window.

 

Then for the clap for NHS/carers last Thursday evening, she joined us for the first time and happily banged a frying pan with a wooden spoon while standing on the pavement at the bottom of our drive.

With the release of 2020 getting closer, I thought it fair to announce that I will be starting a brand new diary upon the release of the game. Part of the reason I have not been updating anything diary related in the last month has partially been COVID related -- as I had to do some work to get myself ready to be working remotely (I teach middle school English, so adjusting from being in a classroom the majority of the day to having to work remotely has been interesting say the least) -- but also I had some other projects I needed to finish that the time at home opened up.

 

While all that has been going on, I've put a lot of thought into what I want to do for 2020 and I have a pretty good idea -- depending on the state of the CVerse, the company I want to play as and the story I want to tell. My Mrs. has even made some graphics early on for what I imagine my company to be/show names to be, etc... so I'll have all of that done. I imagine I'll hit the ground running pretty fast, especially with the week of the trial, my guess is that I'll be ready to go upon the official release of the game.

 

Now, for a little silly bit of movie voice-over trailer kind of writing...

 

Coming soon from the former two-time GDS Diary Writer of the Year comes a story of an upstart wrestling promotion founded by a man who wishes to leave a legacy on the professional wrestling business. A man who wants to be remembered. Building on the narrative style that made The Climb a well-respected and two-time Diary of the Year, Historian hopes to tackle the narrative-rich environment of small-time independent professional wrestling once more and create a defining experience for 2020.

 

No Ordinary Men. Coming April/May of 2020.

So THIS company, is the first one I'm going to check on...?! Really...?!

 

A new TEW... TEW 2020... and THIS company is the first one I'm going to open up when I start my first save... I'll check to see who's still good... and who isn't... I'll see if any other companies from around the world have swooped in and chosen to steal any of my favourites away... Maybe the larger companies with more money than sense... Robbing swines... Maybe there's been some new signings! Some guys from other companies, coming in to grace us with their presence right before I take over!

 

It's no surprise I'm a DeColt or Stone fan. I love the family element of wrestling... I think brothers, sisters, relationships, parents and children, it makes people care more! Classic example: The Triple Threat TLC Matches between The Hardyz (real brothers), The Dudleyz (on screen brothers), and Edge and Christian (on screen brothers). If Bubba and D-Von slammed Matt Hardy through a table, and he was damn near broken in half, Jeff is going to be pretty upset by this. It means more if they're family I think.

 

I'm digressing again.

 

So I think family is important. Will THIS company have any new relationships spring up? Will the relationships from TEW 2016 still be in place? There's no way to tell until the game comes out. Same as there's no way to tell who's been pushed. Will some of my favourites still be near the top of the card? Will they be figureheads? Or Locker Room Leaders? Captains of the roster? Or will they have turned to drugs or booze, or other bad habits? If they have, they can expect a lump of coal in their stockings from Santa!

 

I'm digressing again.

 

I guess I'll find all of that out Next Thursday... 23rd of April... 2020.

I like how having fun is mandatory.

[DarK_RaideR]

Reminds me of how an old MAW diary began.

That's James Casey's MAW diary from several games ago. It is where I got the idea and asked my wife so nicely to make the graphic for me!

Looks good Historian.

With that in mind, I wanted to ask you a few questions about how you interact with the forum/dynasties as a whole. </span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-size:14px;"> </span></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-size:14px;">

Good to see you doing another CVerse diary, Lloyd. Looking forward to it.

Thanks guys. People have often said RAW would suit my style, and it's fun to learn about a company within an awesome universe, that I've never really discovered before. Hoping you'll like the stories I'm going to tell...

So, RAW it is then... Thought I'd just go over some of my reasoning for things, and answer some questions that may come up:

 

1).

What will happen to WWE Three Brands Part II?

- Sadly, this diary is finished. I always stay ahead in my writing, so I have a fair few shows to post. Ten in full, and the next couple I could post, but I think Elimination Chamber could be a good ending point. I don't think I'll be returning to writing for this diary. It's probably my worst, and most difficult WWE Diary, based on it's longevity. With all those shows every week, I only managed around four months game time. I found the roster way too big, and impossible to manage, despite not signing anyone, all I did was bring people in who were under contract. Well, except one controversial name I suppose. Mr. Punk.

 

2).

Why RAW?

- Countless people (I think it's two) have said in the past that RAW would be a good fit for me, and so I checked them out in the first three weeks of me being in lockdown. Off work. Nothing to do all day except decorating etc. and I have to say, I am intrigued. Swoop McCarthy seems like one of the most charismatic characters in the entire C-Verse. They have three BIG babyfaces alongside him, so one of those four is just begging to be turned heel. Then there's the TV Only thing. In TEW 2016, their monthly PPV was 'dormant'. So they only put on TV shows... I have lots of ideas for this, and I'll explain more another time. The other reason, is the bliss of having one show per week (instead of three or more), meaning I can move things along quicker. It's a smallish roster too which will be nice. To give you some perspective, it'll be less than 40 men, with no women's division. In WWE Three Brands Part II, RAW, NXT and Smackdown had over 40 men on each roster, AND women's divisions on top. Too many characters to keep coming up with ideas for.

 

3).

Shouldn't you wait until TEW 2020 is released before making these kinds of plans? What if Swoop McCarthy has left RAW? Or something like that?

– Yep. Probably.

 

4).

Isn't all this a bit pretentious? I mean, nobody actually cares, bro!

– Ahh man. That's a bit unkind. But I get it. Listen, I'm bored okay. So just... Can you just...? Okay...?

Thinking about starting my own dynasty. What is the best free site to use for the hosting of pictures? I was on the forums regularly 10 years ago but I don't think Photobucket is the go-to anymore.

I'd strongly suggest Imgur.
