Do we have a show this weekend? If so, what's the card? I think we can manage a short show on Sunday this week. It'll probably be about three matches, but it should get us back off on the right foot in any case. I'll edit this post with the card here shortly. Sunday Afternoon Impact!Magnus and Eric Young vs Joey Ryan and Kenny King Mickie James and Brooke Hogan vs The Beautiful People (Knockouts Tag Team Number One Contender's Match) Petey Williams, Austin Aries, and Robbie E vs Jeff Hardy, Christian York, and Alex Shelley + There will probably be more.

Alright guys, I'm gonna level with all of ya. I haven't gotten anything done for tomorrow's show.
M and I were actually discussing this in the TNA Committee thread and I'm starting to wonder if it's time for TNAFAN to close it's doors. It seems like we've been struggling alot with the weekly shows, and while the pay per views always have a good amount of people showing up, there have been alot of weekly shows where only a handful of people show up to vote.
And I was hoping by now that somebody else would be able to take the reins. I've had alot of fun running TNAFAN for the past year. It's been an awesome experience for certain. But I think I'm starting to get burnt out. And I don't want to get to the point where it was like Macman before he stepped down. No offense to him, of course.
So... let me put forth this question to everybody: is it time to for TNAFAN to close it's doors for a little while? I don't want to do it, but I haven't found anybody whose interested in taking over. And if I keep trying to go on as is, I'm afraid I'll just be half-assing alot of stuff. And you guys deserve better than that, especially with all the work that some of you put into your promos.
So I'm leaving it in your hands, fellows. Those who want TNAFAN to stick around can voice their opinions. Those who think it might be better for us to close our doors for now can also say their piece.
But whether it remains open or closed, I need to step down as the GM, at least for a little while. And if there's anybody who is interested in taking the reigns, you are more then welcome to it.
And I'd still promo and everything, of course, if someone took over. Because I do enjoy writing promos for my guys here, but juggling that and writing for all of them is just alot for me to handle. And I feel like I'm letting you guys down with these constant delays of late.
But essentially that's the gist of it. I'll let you guys decide where we go from here.
And just to clarify: if we do close for now, there will be one last show to give everyone a proper send off.

Hmm.
Honestly, it'd be kind of weird, especially given that I joined TNA:FAN before I joined WWE:FAN and learned the ropes/first started growing friendships here before even picking up my first character there.
But yeah, we've been on our last legs for quite a while and I've honestly thought we were going to wrap up for good quite a while ago. That's certainly no knock on you Mr B, as I think you've done a fantastic job and are the main reason we stayed afloat for so long. I know sMurf is looking for a replacement GM following Wrestlemania and I hope (after getting a chance to re-charge your GM'ing batteries) you'd seriously consider that position.
It's been a long run and a fun one but yeah, it's tough. And given that RL TNA is looking in pretty crappy shape, its nearly impossible to bring in fresh and new wrestlers to shake things up around here. I think altogether we've done a lot here and while its a shame saying its time to end it... yeah, I agree with the call.

You see that? That is my thumb. You can see it is down in regards to this recent development.

Okay, maybe just merge TNA Fan with the WWE thread? I know a big reason for me being lax in promoing is because having different threads confuses me. TNA FAN as a subsidy of WWE FAN might boost membership, too.

TNA FAN as a subsidy of WWE FAN might boost membership, too. I think that has been considered before in the past. That's something I would have to discuss with M and Mikey though. If somebody else is willing to take over for me then I have absolutely no problem keeping TNAFAN going, but I just need to take a break from GMing. At least for a little while.

Honestly, I'd have to agree with shutting things down for now.
It just seems like there aren't a lot of people who want to be GM right now, so there's too many shows.
Plus it makes things easier to transition to something that isn't TNA:FAN in the event actual TNA shuts down, which frankly seems more and more likely every day the way the news/NEWZ has read.

Selfish question:In the event of a shut down, will Feast or Failure winners keep their briefcases?

There will be one final show if we do shut down. And we WILL have the Joey Ryan vs Kenny King match I've been wanting to do for awhile.
Because after all the build it's had we have to do it eventually, right?

I'm fine with any and all of this. Whoever wants to open one of those up, by all means go for it.

Yes! The Jade Chung/Ms. Chif exploding bra and panties match will become a reality!
Actually, I may end up posting my Season 2 Premiere at some point, because I flat out love how good it looks, as far as advancing several existing angles and setting things up for the rest of the season.
