THE NEED TO KNOW
Submission Deadline: Sunday, November 13th @ 11:59pm PST
Posting Deadline: Tuesday, November 15th @ 11:59pm PST
All content should be submitted backstage by the Sunday deadline. The Tuesday deadline is a staff guideline, and exists to give Pete enough time to proofread the show before we post it.
Please do not abuse this. Ensure that all your work is submitted by Sunday evening, otherwise it may not be proofread.

GENERAL NOTES
We’re going back to our “old” style of summarised matches. This is important. Please read: http://www.fwrestling.com/showthread.php?31705-Match-Writing-(Length)
Remember to sign-up for your segments and share your feud docs with staff. You’re still going to use the segment template that we’re used to using in our booking docs:
SEG:
But you’re going to tell us which number you need in the card placement line. Then we’ll update the runsheets accordingly. Here’s an example:
SEG:
Staff will not be adding your segments for you: you gotta do this yourself.
Segment positions are first-come, first serve, but there is room to add more depending on demand. Remember: we shouldn’t be adding too many segments to shows if they’re not needed because that’s what we have UNCUT for.
Please also check your matches in the runsheets for referees. This will still be on you all to do in your booking docs. If you haven’t shared those with staff yet (Brunk, Lindz, Andy), please do so ASAP.
