Paid Members Fatty Facesitter Posted January 29, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2013 At the tail end of 2011 I organised Fantasy Booking tournement. It was well recieved by most of you at the time and I've been asking one or two of you about a possible follow up to it. With Wrestlemania fever well and truly in the air now, and this being the only time of year where I religiously stick with wrestling, hopefully your creative juices will be in full flow. Here's the link to the original thread if you're looking for some inspiration: Fantasy Booking cup '11  THE PROPOSAL  What I propose is the UKFF's equivalent of a fantasy booking FA Cup. Depending on the numbers that are interested, I'll be pitting you all against each other with different scenarios in each round. In no more than 1000 words I'll get you to pen some creative genius on the subject of choice. It could be re-booking an old angle, it could be booking something coming up in the future. It could be booking a return, a retirement, a new arrival, anything. Then, once a 'match' of sorts has been completed, the best booking idea for that scenario progresses to the next round, and so on until we have an overall winner. The winner will bag a trophy* and who knows, there may be other prizes in the offing throughout the tourne.  In terms of voting, a panel will be rounded up to help me wade through the earlier rounds and in addition, the latter stages will also see more chances for the rest of the forum to vote!  THE DRAW Simple, old school names out of the hat jobbie. You'll all be assigned numbers and then drawn into the respective brackets. In the event of odd numbers, I might throw in the odd triple threat or bye to even out the playing field.  STYLE Simple, be creative. Ideally you'll stray away from going to 'dark' and murky and 'deep'. In other words don't go all emo on me.  I'm not asking for deep character profiles here; I want colourful, vibrant, entertaining stuff. Stuff that people will read, enjoy and will enjoy reading when the log on. If you want to keep Ryback as a savage beast and keep him as a serious badass, then that's grand, but there's no need to write a bunch of spiel about a dark past, harsh childhood or any of that shit.  Otherwise, there's no preference in style. Each to their own, different styles are welcome and encouraged.  Remember, though I've put up a 1000 word limit, the emphasis is more on quality rather than quantity. Just because you've penned 100 more words than the other guy doesn't mean you'd be sailing through to the next round.  The whole point is this thread is for people to exercise their creative brains. As is par for the course with most UKFF tourne's or things of this nature that get organised, they don't often get finished. But even so, there should at least be scope in this thread for a good few pages of literary goodness. ----------------------  Last year we opened up to 32 spots, which made things nice and even. In the event of cancellations then we'll open the entry back up on a first come, first serve basis.  If you're interested, confirm your entry by posting a picture of your most favourite wrestling storyline ever. Like this!   *Actually true. NEWM has admittedly been waiting a while for his, but he's finally had it sent to him! The next winner won't have to wait as long. I promise.  Entrants  <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler Cobra1000 Benoit Is Innocent Harmonic Generator scott 2k16 Dingbat spotlightmagnet1 Charles goodwill mim731 PSF Toilet Rapper Heald Sphinx Nexus Callum1993 Slapnut Dearly Devoted Dexter Dirty Eddie unfitfinlay stunstone316 vince russo Forrest Teedy Kay Adam 619 Billy The Follower Bradyisgod22 hallicks Rule One Up Chuck MyNameIs... omgmarc ShortOrderCook Rickfest  [close spoiler] ");document.close(); **1st Round entries** Harmonic Generator vs Teedy Kay  Rickfest vs RuleOne  billyhefollower vs unfitfinlay  BradyisGod22 vs Cobra1000  Dirty Eddie vs omgmarc Hallicks vs Stunstone316  Up Chuck vs Slapnut Scott2K16 vs Charles Goodwill  Heald vs spotlightmagnet1  vince russo vs Dexter  Callum1993 vs Sphinx  Mim vs BenoitIsInnocent  Dingbat vs Mynameis  adam619 vs Forrest  PSF vs ShortOrderCook  Tiolet Rapper vs Nexus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MungoChutney Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Â IN! I had to drop out last time after winning my first match as I was going through some custody issues with my son at the time but I'm well up for this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator HarmonicGenerator Posted January 29, 2013 Awards Moderator Share Posted January 29, 2013 Not to be copying Cobra, but (I'm taking it as a five-year-long story arc) Â Â Â Â Alternatively, Nick, if you want me to be on the panel rather than be an entrant, I could do that.
