Results have been sent out. Record voter turnout, and the winner of the WHC match set a record high in ratings. Results are, well, I hope the matches deliver because I believe Summerfest will be our best supercard show yet.
That brings me to my next writing challenge: if you set the tone, pace, and psychology for your match with the first "act" it's time to turn up the heat with the second "act." Start whipping out some big spots, maybe create a "twist" or two that shakes up the dynamics of the match. Remember to keep it balanced between every contestant - don't think about the results until the third "act." Make your match a journey, not just a destination. Keep the reader guessing throughout the match.

Oh, also, just so newer members know, if someone gets a pink slip, it doesn't mean that they are kicked out of this e-fed. It's more like an opportunity to start an angle.

Let's assume the three guys who get the turkeys with the pink slips are both still active and don't want to introduce a new character. That means they'll be three wrestlers with basically the same storyline: trying to get back on the roster. Heck, if JoNo loses he's almost in the same boat, at least in terms of wrestling. I guess what I'm asking is: what's the plan if there are a bunch of active FAWA members who according to storylines can't wrestle?

Would be MUCH further along with the ladder match were it not for so much other stuff that needed doing at home.

Final writing challenge: "Act Three." It's time to bring your match home, but don't make it easy for the contestants. Those is where all of your psychology had been leading to, so make it pay off. Now is the time for the big, desperate spots as every contestant struggles to win the match once and for all. Perhaps, to keep freshen things up, toss in a twist to kick off the home stretch. Again, give every contestant spot light time to shine - keep it balanced until the finish must happen - you'll know when you've reached the climax in your gut, and then pull the trigger.

I am shooting to have this match done by tonight. I had a long awful weekend so it's coming along slowly. If anything I'll have it done Monday morning at the latest. Sorry for the small delay, however knowing FAWA as a whole most matches won't be done until Monday anyways.

Can I just say how tense this whole 3rd place thing is making me? Especially that world title match, it's going to be crazy.

Going to try to get the match done tonight. I have had so much that needed to get done that I've been drained lately.

Don't worry, the City of Rockford needed saving again, so I have some catchup to do myself.

Me and Punisher have got our match pretty much finished, with just some post-match stuff and some minor changes here and there needing to be written. I don't think the final draft is quite gonna make it to you by the deadline, BRB, but it will definitely be in your inbox before Monday evening.

It's been a while since I've written a competitive match, so I'm a bit rusty. I'm a superhero. I have a secret identity, been captured by South Africans, and have a pipe wrench signal that alerts me to evildoing. I only met one cop who comes close to that.
