SSIV Progress Thread

[TH]

Here, we chart the progress of SuperShow IV, just like the subject says

Alrighty, first off, the CoC match will be postponed and reset at SuperShow V with a twist. What kind of twist? Well, you'll have to read SSIV to find out. Lindsay and Dan both were really busy, and we worked something out. So that match not having to be written will speed things up. The TiT final though... especially with the effort that Dave and Andrew gave for it, I want to make that the best match I've ever written. Thankfully, that's the only match I'm writing longform, although the FFA~! match will get a nice EPICENTER styled shortform instead of the ****ty recap one that I gave it at SSII.

Speaking of the TiT final, I'm looking for seven votes on it since it's arguably the most important singles match on the TEAM calendar. Therefore, I want it done as objectively as possible. I have three votes in and I need four. I may end up pestering one of you for a vote. Don't be shocked to get an IM from me

Anyhoo, the matches:

I'd be lying if I said I made great progress in the TiT final. I'm still in the process of getting it judged, but that wouldn't slow me down normally, since I've had the match outlined for about two weeks now, with ALTERNATE FINISHERS~! based on the results. I've just been swamped at work and I'm going to Virginia tomorrow night through Monday.

I'm going to promise this card by Friday of next week. Hopefully it'll be done sooner, but if it's not up by Friday, I'll allow a select three of you to browbeat me until I have a welt on my ass.*

So, who's doing the browbeating?

 

[EpyonMarx]

He's got another 14 hours to post it THEN we browbeat.

 

[TH]

Actually, we're going EDT, not your fancy GMT! So that means I have a little under 17 hours left.

I have made some progress in the TiT final, and those who owe me matches say they'll be done soon. So today might see SSIV!

 

[EpyonMarx]

Actually we're on British Summer Time, so neener neener neener.

And less than 11 hours to go til the lost Brits find Tom...

 

[Edgar]

He's got another 14 hours to post it THEN we browbeat.

I'd like to be prepared though. If the time comes, and we're not prepared and instead we're arguing over who gets to do it, he might slip and run away.

 

[TH]

I am an oily fellow.

 

[DBrunkGXW]

It's true. I've seen his hair.

 

[Jesse Ramey]

I'm from WV, I know all about the catch the oily pig type stuff. So... With that being said, you just try to get away from me boy! Cause when a big hillbilly catches ya you ain't going anywhere until someone gets to browbeat you.

 

[TH]

I'm making good progress in the TiT Final. I should have that done tonight unless I pass out or get distracted by the Phillies again. The shortform stuff and intros will follow, so if I get matches from my outsource help , we'll have SuperShow IV... TONITE!

If I'm only missing one longform match though, I'll post it anyway and then edit in the match later. I really want to get moving onto the ToC, and in that vein, yes, SSV will be completely shortformed.

 

[Edgar]

I'm from WV

Not something you should openly say.

 

[AUMedina]

Coming from a FW vet (am I allowed to say that?), the fact Tom's going to get it out sometime this week is a blessing compared to all the other times in other feds that are currently here and were here when it came to getting out cards in a timely fashion.

So all of you out-of-towners need to know what's up and take it from me when I say, it's well worth the wait.

 

[Edgar]

Hey, I'm plenty patient, I'm no FWnewbie.

It's just that Tom brought it on himself when he said...

"but if it's not up by Friday, I'll allow a select three of you to browbeat me until I have a welt on my ass.*"

And really, which self-respecting person passes up an open invitation like that?

 

[TH]

This is true

 

[AUMedina]

Can't hold the guy to that when it was a joke (which you probably already knew).

And compared to me, you're a n00b, so know your place kid.

 

[Edgar]

Can't hold the guy to that when it was a joke (which you probably already knew).

A joke? Browbeating is no laughing matter.

 

[TH]

The TiT Final is written. I'm gonna work on the short-forms right now, although I don't have what I need from the other writers yet. Looks like tomorrow (technically, later today ) for the postings.

 

[TH]

I'm gonna wait til the morning to post, just to see if Jeff will get in his match. Even if he doesn't, it goes up, and I'll edit the match in when I get it.
