Sorry for not being able to write any matches, I stated in a different topic that I had to go for a few days. But now that that's over and done with no problems should occur in future.

Oh yeah, I think I recall you mentioning such. Bleh.
That said, we got one match left if you want it: Hayden/Antihero.

Excellent. Every match has a writer now. That said, just a little reminder for writers this week: it's a supercard*, not Niteraw. Think bigger and longer than normal. This is the time to really stretch your creative muscles and impress everyone. Like most PPVs, imagine the show as three hours long instead of the single hour we estimate Niteraw to be. *In case people wonder, I use the term "supercard" over "PPV" because, well, no one is "paying" to "view" the shows**, but the cards are theoretically superior to Niteraw, so I feel the term, while not in general use, to be more appropriate. **Reminds me of the idea I once had in which only members receive supercard shows by PM. For every idea I bring up, I probably have had another 3-4 I rejected myself. This us one of them because it would be too risky and too much work.

All right, results have been sent out. Let's try to get stuff in by Wednesday. Remember: this is a 3 hour supercard show. Feel free to really flex your creative muscles and go all out. Still be on time though please.

I hope mine don't look too rushed or short. I seem to write and finish the match within the first 5-7 hours of sending me the results.

I tend to mull things over in my brain a lot, trying to figure out moves and how I want the flow of the match to go. Given this being a supershow it's a bit more drawn out but I've got a few ideas that I like. It's just a matter of sitting down tonight I think and putting finger to keyboard.

I always have both wrestlers profile up so I can look at there moves and sometimes a previous match they had, like learning off other writers that have been here longer. I honestly thing the match I did was a bit short but we'll see.

I also boot up each profile. Hell, since I don't have internet on my home PC, I often save profiles in text files.
As for the actual match writing, I usually take a couple hours - supercard matches naturally take longer than Niteraw matches - but I sometimes split it into chunks. A little proofreading never hurts either. The more you do it, the more natural it gets to flow from beginning to end.
I just realized that this will mark the first time I've had to write a complete match since Wrestlecrapocalypse.
