<p>Would anyone be willing to do an alt of the Bluegrass Championship Wrestling logo without the Confederate flags?</p><p> </p><p>

Even if you ignore the argument about what that flag represents, it doesn't make sense for a company based in Kentucky to be sporting confederate flag decals when they fought on the Union Side in the civil war.</p>

Believe it or not, it's always been on one of my lists to make a more Bluegrass-y style BCW logo but it's in between "begin to eat salads" and "praise the Dutch" on my list.

 

Both of those are at the bottom. :p

 

I've been meaning to ask, where did your avatar come from? I love it and I've been wanting to use it in a private game, but I can't find it in any of the alt threads.

Wasn't Kentucky neutral?

Yep. Kentucky actually didn't choose a side, deciding instead to remain neutral.

 

It was, but it's a little more complicated then that. It started off as neutral, but the Confederacy would break that neutrality by invading and occupying Columbus, Kentucky in September, 1861. In response the legislature petitioned the Union for assistance, and ordered the flag of the United States be flown over the capital signalling it's allegiance to the Union. It would remain solidly Union controlled for the remainder of the war; though a good portion of the populace supported the confederacy and it was host to it's share of internal conflict and guerrilla warfare.

 

I did misstate things a bit, but it doesn't invalidate my main point; they never joined the Confederacy. Not to mention that in the the last few decades there's been a pretty big backlash against the use of the Confederate flag imagery even in states that were a part of it.

 

Back when it was a future promotion BCW was based much further south in Louisiana, when it came for the promotion to be used we realised that would put them in direct regional competition with CWT (and saw them not really cope in testing if I recall correctly) so they were moved...

 

With the way regional battles work I'm guessing they're going to get smashed no matter where they are since it's not about where you're based, all you need is 12 popularity in a region to be part of a regional battle. I generally disable company battles as it tends to kill the indy scene in the long term.

If you give some sort of examples then sure. Modern can mean anything.

 

Sure. I was thinking to stay with a blue background but with logo centered around the company initials CWT in yellow in a more modern style and without the mentioning of Tennessee. Below as a slogan "where tradition meets tomorrow".

It's the "more modern style" that is the sticking point for me. If you could provide some picture examples of what you're looking for, it'd make designing the logo a bit easier. :)

I just wish it was easier to replace Louisiana in the regional belt with Kentucky. (or maybe I'm just bad at belt alts)</p>
