Pretend I put my oppenent in the hospital....you didn't feel like writing the match....how bout you pretend I RP next week...and call it good, how bout that. Phate didn't show...so basically you Connor are no showing the results...fuck that. I know your pissed, and I'm pissed, and from what you said Phates pissed. You said it perfect he contributed to the problem, but then so did you. If you didn't want to write the match....put it out there ahead of time, maybe someone else could have.
As for Phate...maybe he'll quit coming back when people don't rub his balls anymore....he's good, but the best, and now has proved that he just runs off when things don't make him perfectly happy. I could loose every match in a row for a solid month...oh wait that happend...but I dealt with it. Fucking grow the fuck up Phate...so your pissed that the world and the people in it have issues. Far as I am concerned Conner you rank right up there with him. No showing results like that is the quickest way to drive away talent. I am here,. and will be here, unless bullshit like this continues. If you can't handle the load, or just feel pissed let someone know....and maybe someone else could have submitted something that resembles results other then you ringing out your tampon.
I just think....if you would have said something...I could have writen something for me...and something for the Kid....other then "Pretend you sent them to the Hospital". We RP'd....and deserve results, along with the new comers to the fed deserve to check out what they are getting themselves into. Listen if PHate ducks and runs, or Trevor can't come back for awhile, it gives people like Kid, or Carl Cage an opprtunity, but if you just say make some shit up in your head and cal it good, people will jump shit and let this bitch sink to the bottom of the ocean. How bout you toss around a PM to people that have writen matches before, or make a thread like Jeff...so that someone can put something that look professional for a fed together, not some guy pissed off that he signed up for a fed that people are leaving from. When one goes, two arrive...I have seen it here for some time. So lets move on, and hoepfully not have bullshit results like that again. The traffic here keeps going, and new guy's sign up all the time. When the Staff of a show berates everyone in the results, it could make people look else where before signing up a bio sheet.

Honestly? That was un acceptable.
I dont care, if you feel it isnt my place to say anything. Opinions dont belong in circles. I may show up every week, roleplaying putting up peices of quality, but I am more in justified with what I am about to say, in regards to this issue.
You do realise that Michael Lively, posted a full length RP? Or the fact Hardcore Kid showed up? But hey, fuck that. Their opponnets didnt show. So THEY should suffer. Forget that they actually show up--and treat them exactly how their opponnets did. Way to give the role players the short end of the stick.
For fucks sakes. I knew Trevor probably wasnt going to show. He was offline for days at a time. But I still got up and posted a full length role play. I havent read overdrive as of this moment, but I am almost sure Jeff posted an at least decent match for me. So, according your attitude. I should have just thrown up a half assed one liner, telling him how I was going to beat his face in. Is that what your trying to promote here?
And in regards to the no showers. There is really a easy way to resolve this. Stop booking them. I dont know why there is need for all this juvenile behavoir. Meltdown is a second show, while still providing talented role players across the board--it does seem more of a development area of the fed. So, whats the big fucking deal here?
Instead of posting a show. A show that tells the roleplayers who failed to show up, that they really missed out on something, you instead allow the no-showers to dictate the quality of the show ruining for the people who actually put work into their roleplays.
And maybe this is crazy, a strech even. But the roster looked very, very, healthy before you turned up here. I am not saying this is your fault, but lets be fucking real here. You have rubbed many the wrong way, Conner. And its quite obvious.
So with that, I say grow past the fucking juvinile bullshit. An efed will never survive with an eye for an eye attitude. This did nothing but rip EVERYONE off.
Lets grow up.

Regardless, this attitude isnt motivating anyone towards getting up and roleplaying next week. I understand your fustrations. No showers with-out reason, is what is bringing this hobby down. You just didnt handle it the right way, stated above. I dont know whats happining from here, but lets not make rash decisions. Jeff is a smart man, and he can clear the air here. He has done great with this so far, and the APW will move past this.

First of all, I'm gonna lock this thread before it gets out of hand.
2nd of all, I finally had the chase to see the results and look at the comments, and I can see where Connor is coming from with the now shows, but theres ways to deal with it. Taking it out on the people who no show and "send them to the hospitial" isn't the way to do it. I didn't book Sabur this week, and had Phate booked on Meltdown so they could build up their match at November reign on Meltdown. I never wanted Meltdown to be a development type show, the reason I been booking big matches on it.
But Connor has stepped down as a GM and staff member. Meltdown will be put on Hiatus for the time being. I hope to get it going once again. So that means after the PPV, we're back to only having Overdrive, which is probably the best since the Roster isn't big enough for two shows anymore.
Between Tonight and Tomorrow Morning, I hope to fix the Meltdown Results and give Lively and The Hardcore Kid matches to read. they RPed, they deserve a match, they shouldn't suffer cause their opponents no showed. If anyone wants to help me with this, it be much appreciated.
I'll have the November Reign card posted later tonight. The main event will stay with Sabur taking on Doctor Phate. If Phate is done with APW and wants to leave and no show the PPV, that's his decision. APW has always been about its Quality of results. Not once, not a single time, not even a thought has come through my mind to post half ass shitty results. Look at every single Overdrive and PPV, now those are fuckin results. our Overdrive shows are better than most feds PPV's. When people look for a fed, they look for the quality of results and if things get done on time. We do that and we do a damn good job at it.
This has been a bad month for APW, but I'm not ready to give up. There's so much potienial here and a lot of talented minds as well. We got 5 shows left for the year. Lets get through this, take a break at Christmas and start all over. I've put together 33 Overdrives and 10 PPV's this year. I've done a lot of work with video's, writing matches, doing stuff for the feds and all that. My mind is on Overload trying to figure out why there's been so many no show's lately and what can I do to turn this fed around. So I'm in need to a break to recharge the batteries.
Like I said, with Connor stepping down, we will go back to how it used to be, 1 show for now. Its time to move forward from this.
I want to also say thanks to Connor for jumping on board and help with meltdown. I appreciate it, even though you rub some people the wrong way, It was nice to see APW have two shows, even if it was only for a month.
