After two weeks - there have been 4 RP's posted with a little bit less than a few hours to go before deadline. It seems like the overall buzz to APW since reopening and the reunion show has started to wane a little bit. What are your thoughts on the return of APW? Are you enjoying yourself? Can we chalk up the little bit of a slow period due to the growing pains of getting back off the ground again?
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts...

I don't know if it's waning, it just seems like it's tough to keep the momentum with the two week break. It's like we need some type of activity in between weeks.
Also, I think everyone posts their RPs the day of the deadline. Naturally were all procrastinators.
I definitely got revitalized when the PPV was announced and I've been trying to keep my storyline going which is keeping me motivated. It'll be interesting to see what other people feel.
But I'm enjoying myself!

Sorry for my lateness of a reply. Been off most of the day. Had some family over and had to sorta rush to get the last bits done for the rp.
Will be working on segments tomorrow, J-Reb. Will be in your inbox.

I still love it here. It's harsh with a two week look but I know I couldnt handle weekly myself. I believe of quality over quantity and overtime the real shines. I'm enjoying myself and more than willing to work. There's always a lil lull sometimes, beginning in the middle or end even. If you got a hub of people willing to work it usually goes well I believe.

I had four matches to write for in three days. One yesterday (which I no-showed...I might be able to get in on on-card but I'll have to talk to them), one today (which I posted for in typically deadline hugging fashion), and two tomorrow, one of which is a 40-man Royal Rumble that I really want to win despite having basically no chance of winning.
tl;dr
I've been preoccupied, but going forward I should be okay. All three feds shouldn't sync up with deadlines anymore (if I decide to stay in the one I no-showed, and if they decide to let me stay), so I shouldn't have such a shit time of it anymore.
tl;dr tl;dr
Sorry, I didn't mean to disappear.

I'm enjoying the new era so far, it's just the capacity for my personal life (school and work) becomes overwhelming at time. Having tonight off from RP'ing really helped! I'm re-energized for the PPV though. If we keep the momentum going, it could be a classic.

Enjoyed the results, as always. The lack of segments sucks - I know I'm as responsible for that as anyone else who didn't get one in. It loses a bit of the character that the results usually have.
I agree with Rebel that things are waning. I think tether's a lot of things as play there. Yes, the 2 week turn-around probe;y doesn't help but a lot of feds survive on the same schedule. I know a lot of people have come back while still being busy; that doesn't help. Some people have flaked on us, which hurts too. There's a lot of things working against all this returning to the way it used to be.

One thing that APW has going for it, is that for the most part, the RP's being posted are really good stuff. I think we need to revitalize the OOC a little bit. I don't necessarily know how to do that. But you also see the people visited in the last 24 hours is a big number. Why isn't anyone talking about anything? Doesn't anyone have anything going on? I'm afraid of having children because I think I'll hate my wife. Does anyone want to talk about that?
It's too bad there weren't more segments this week, if I had known I would've put more work into mine. We can get this on track. We have a good top tier of people here, now it just needs to trickle down to everyone else.

Not even big names, just some consistent talent that'll help breathe some life into the new era. |

For me, I'm still trying to get into a rhythm with my time management. Before, I kind of had a set idea of when I'd be getting to the computer to write and when I had time to hash out ideas. Now, it's just kind of all over the place and am finding it hard to actually get into a rhythm. That's partially why I didn't have anything segment wise. The other part is that this whole heel thing is still taking some getting used to without being cliche.
