To sum up, Adam got everything he thinks he wanted, there will be about 8 quality mods for 2020 and a bunch of ones that will be "I simmed a month ahead after I converted a mod from 2016 so this makes it mine" mods with no one enforcing the posted mod protections because the creators are now banned. (Note: They've posted that won't happen. They promise it won't happen. 6 months after release when there are barely any mods released, we'll see if that holds. Plus, he went to great effort to add the ability to do that to the game, which nobody ever asked for (instead of being able to convert games between versions of TEW) so yeah.)</p><p> </p><p> And TFC, I hate to see this end, but it's not surprising in the slightest. Won't be many old-timers around here anymore.</p>

[MisterRomanini]

<p>Just when I thought the GDS forums were drama-free... oh well.</p><p> </p><p>

I really hope you reconsider this decision, TFC, and return whenever you feel ready. If that doesn't happen, well, it'll be sad since you've made two of my favorite dynasties (Golden Age and Beyond - TEW 2013) and this.</p>

[Wolfman84]

<p>I have a lot of question about this comment thou,</p><p> </p><p>

"It's a super nice place where they crap on all of the diaries, mods, and members here."</p><p> </p><p>

I really hope that statement isn't true because you guys work REALLY hard on this dynasty. I hope you reconsider TFC but at this moment I don't really blame you.</p>

[kinnikuniverse]

<p>Usually, I don't want to get involved in any talk about why somebody is leaving or stopping something they were doing because, well, it's none of my business.</p><p> </p><p>

...but after reading what will happen to mods and how the developers acted... now I see why you're thinking of stopping.</p><p> </p><p>

And I thought small, Indy games are immune to idiotic BS like this...</p><p> </p><p>

Man, first, two best friends play ends, now TEW potentially dying because the developers are scumbags...</p><p> </p><p>

This is the worst Christmas ever!</p><p> </p><p>

On another note, I really, really hope you at least finish with starrcade before leaving the forums. A story is nothing without it's ending. I really enjoyed this diary, and I hope it finishes with a bang!</p>

[The Final Countdown]

I appreciate the messages of support/appreciation, but let's please drop the discussion of GDS/the developers. I don't want this thread to turn ugly (or uglier than it already has, I guess.)

 

I have a lot of question about this comment thou,

 

"It's a super nice place where they crap on all of the diaries, mods, and members here."

 

I really hope that statement isn't true because you guys work REALLY hard on this dynasty. I hope you reconsider TFC but at this moment I don't really blame you.

That's a comment from Genadi in one of the closed threads, right? If so, he was referring to a different board entirely, not this one.

[franticloser]

Well this was not something I was expecting to happen. As someone who has been around these parts for a long while, and someone who has loved reading your stuff, if you do decide not to return it will be a pretty sad thing. I am hoping that this just a temporary thing and that after some cool down this can be resolved somehow, as we all just love wrestling and at some point we all fell in love with this series of games for one reason or another. You've given me a lot of good reading and was to stave off frustration at work, so thank you for that. I will leave it at that, wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, and hope that I will see you here again some day.

[Wolfman84]

Yeah, Genadi statement. However, I think he was talking about that board bashing dynasty from here. I could be wrong thou.

I have no clue on the validity of that, but it doesn't really matter to me regardless as it's probably been at least fifteen years since I logged into that forum.</p>

<p>Now the dust has settled and you’ve had a bit of time to think about it, do you know if you’re going to continue this? It’ll be a shame for it to end </p><p> </p><p>

Hope you all had a good Christmas and new year</p>

[Armando Payne]

<p>God damn, I come back after a while, I get caught up and then it dies. T.T</p><p> </p><p>

Hopefully y'all return because this is aight. We got my dream Mantaur World Champ Push, we got Ace Attorney Shout Outs which I dug because my name is an Ace Attorney shout out (diego ARMANDO and winston PAYNE). (It's a shame you're not doing this with current WWE considerin' they had Godot as one of their commentators an' all.)

I even name dropped your Genius Of Pin wrestler on Reddit. T.T</p><p> </p><p>

I wanted to book next year's Survivor Series as well.</p>

I think I only have three weeks of TV left to go, and it would be a fitting show to go out on if I decide not to go any further. I can't make any promises though, because I have no more enthusiasm to load up TEW than I did two weeks ago or however long it's been since all this happened.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="Armando Payne" data-cite="Armando Payne" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>God damn, I come back after a while, I get caught up and then it dies.

Just bought the trilogy digitally on 3DS, after realizing that I'd somehow skipped over the third game, which is supposed to be the best in the series! <img alt=":o" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> I'm kind of curious about the context for bringing up Genius of Pin.</p>

<p>TFC, if this is the end man, then I have to certainly thank you for the amazing stories and dynasties you have made. They have been by far some of the best stuff I have read, wrestling related. Seriously man, you're a legend on this forum. It's sad to have to see you go, but I completely respect you're decision.</p><p> </p><p>

Really hoping to see this dynasty get a fitting send off. It truly deserves it. I was also wondering on whether you would consider uploading the save? I would really like to free play from where you left off, I think it would be really cool.</p>

[ScubaSteve83]

Does anyone know if TFC altered the mod to get Taka and Corino on long term deals? They are both free lance and won't sign anything longer than 6 months. TIA!

Freelance was one of the things that never worked in TEW and actively screwed the workers that got assigned that. I pretty much always remove that from everyone when I start a new game. I bet he did the same.</p>

[The Final Countdown]

<p>I haven't touched TEW at all these past...four months, or however long it has been, so obviously I have nothing to show you at this time. But I just wanted to leave you guys a quick note that I plan to pick this back up eventually. At the very least we'll get through Starrcade, but I'm thinking/hoping that doing so will help me get motivated again. I've tried working on other, non-TEW/wrestling related writing projects while I've been gone, but haven't been able to maintain my focus on any of them. I miss writing in general, and it seems like the best way to get myself doing it again is to try and revive this thing.</p><p> </p><p> That said, I'll be moving in a little over a month, so obviously I'll be pretty busy preparing for that. I can't give an ETA on anything, but hopefully most of you will be ready to step back in with me when I can finally get going again.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="ScubaSteve83" data-cite="ScubaSteve83" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Does anyone know if TFC altered the mod to get Taka and Corino on long term deals?

I feel like either one of them would have been more than happy to sign long-term contracts with a company (and I'd assume Taka was actually under one with the WWF), and their bouncing around from company to company was just a product of circumstance.</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="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Honestly, that's been one of my very few pet peeves with Genadi and the Mod Squad mods.

[franticloser]

Welcome back TFC you've been truly missed the last few months, and I ready to jump back in. Good luck on your move! I've done a lot of those and they are never fun.

[kinnikuniverse]

<p>wow! a comeback even more unexpected than tiger woods!</p><p> </p><p>

welcome back TFC. now, it's time to finish the job at Greensboro!</p>

[Levinux]

Welcome back, TFC. Glad to see another WCW diary staying alive. Amazing work.

[Uncrewed]

Good to see ya back TFC! I can't wait to see where we go from here!

[Danny_H22]

Really happy to hear that we might have an update in the not too distant future. You are by far my favourite creative writer and I’m in awe by how brilliant this whole story has been. I hope that once you do get your teeth back into it, it reignites your love and we can all continue on this journey (and maybe I’ll get to contribute as SHC winner)

[DGenerationMC]

Welcome back, sir!
