I feel like, as my twitter rant would suggest I am very intrigued by the direction being taken with Sano and Enatsu, I think it's an angle I would love to be a part of. I can't wait to see it going forward and was pleasantly surprised by the dueling shows.
I know I'm a late addition this tour, but hot damn have I enjoyed this process. The sheer amount of stuff you're able to spin from our characters is amazing. I've only participated a few weeks but the bouncing back and forth of ideas and reacting to stuff from cards has already been some of the most creative fun I've had in this game in a while.
What little world building I've done (and have planned, woo woo) is such a treat for me. Love this shit.
As I mentioned via PM, I joined LION's ROAD with a junior style wrestler and I'm hoping to see him pop up in the upcoming juniors tourney.

Some notes from me:
--Adding headers for each match makes these results WAY easier to read so kudos for that going into effect.
--I feel like win, lose, or draw, Shinjiro Nakama is a made man after this arc. He (and Arnold Cunningham) have had some great promo work and he looked every bit the beast he is made. He's a #TOPGUY in my eyes.
--Demon Brigade with the big wins (Tokyo Zombie winning J1 SUMMIT, record setting Tag Title run with GRIM, ZENKI retaining World Title. I have to wonder who will be the ones to eventually take the gold. The fanatic story has been fun on the side and adds a little more to the overall story of the fed.
--I've had fun running ACES WILD! this arc and hope this won't be the last of them (as long as Musket's handler is good with this, of course) as we need more regular teams in the mix. There's a few pairings that I think could be fun (Pulver/Kusamoto, Lynx/METAL HERO, etc)
--I've been enjoying Daichi Kusamoto who has come off like a badass in his own right. Pulver's handler making more gold out of a fun character.
--The dueling shows was a great idea and while I have confidence that this will be pulled off well, I hope this treads carefully and doesn't eventually overstay its welcome and become an angle that could overshadow the wrestlers themselves (ie, clashing authority figures).
--Some new blood has really helped and I already am digging the hell out of FDJ (known the character for a long time) and Go Gensei (handled by an eW genius in Evan).

Are you excited for how the story's moving forward? -The power struggle with Enatsu and Sano is going to be very interesting to follow. I loved how Enatsu got so ticked off with Sano's decisions that he essentially put on a show on his own to compete with his own show. Brilliant! I do think Seth brings up a good point though, with the risk of running it too long and taking too much focus away from the wrestlers. I hope it's either going to be a fast and intense feud or run far enough in the background for a while so it doesn't distract too much from the wrestling stories. Speaking of the wrestling stories, I'm really enjoying Demon Brigade's domination, their feud with ACES WILD and the "whodunnit" with the Musket's burned down home. Seeing what the Demon Brigade and their zealots will be up to are always something I look forward to and I loved how Zenki used them as a tool in the match against Nakama.
What surprised you the most? -The gaijins being pulled from the last show and a second show being held. I don't think anyone could've seen that coming!
Is there anything you find confusing or you need clarification? -Not that I can think of right now at least.
Lots of new faces. Who has got you most excited? -Go Gensai is looking really interesting so far, looking forward to see what he'll do. I'm also digging FDJ. He's filling that classic puro archetype of the big crazy American brawler but is putting his own cool twist on it. Very excited to see all the new people do their thing!
Anything else you'd like to add? -Very fun tour! Lots of fun action, lots of great RPs. Pulver vs Knight and Nakama vs Zenki were both fantastic and a joy to read! So yeah, don't really know what else to say. Keep doing what you're doing, everyone!
All right, please give us some feedback. +10,000 words of results have been written over this tour. -The last few days of eWrestling has been absolutely wonderful! This is why I play the game. Kudos to whoever came up with and put this all together, it looks like I came in at a pretty effing good time to Max-J!
Are you excited for how the story's moving forward? -Absolutely! I can't wait to see how myself and Evan and other new folks fold into the story! Personally I love how things are put together and can't wait to see what's in store for Frank in the near future!
What surprised you the most? -How well everything tied together. It's few and far between that you see that kind of attention to detail in efeds anymore.
Is there anything you find confusing or you need clarification? -I think I've got it all pieced together. It's a lot to catch up on for sure, but it's been a great and fun read.
Lots of new faces. Who has got you most excited? -Evan is killing it with Go Gensai, I'm looking forward to mixing it up with him in the very near future.
Anything else you'd like to add? -This place is great, I'm so glad to be involved. I hope to be able to add to the world here in many different ways, because I have more ideas than you could shake a stick at!
Last Edit: Oct 15, 2018 20:08:52 GMT -5 by FDJ: Why are these forums so finicky? The double and triple spacing is annoying as it can be... (sadpanda)

Are you excited for how the story's moving forward?: The power struggle starting to come to the forefront between Enatsu and Sano. There are so many possible directions this could go and I'm excited to see how the
What surprised you the most?: I think it was Zenki retaining, The Mountain is such a great character and with the size difference it made Zenki's victory that much more impressive.
Is there anything you find confusing or you need clarification?: No
Lots of new faces. Who has got you most excited?: Go Gensei, I have a feeling he's going to be an absolute terror in the company.
Anything else you'd like to add?: First off, a shout out to my Demon Brigade brothers, Zombie and Zenki. Being part of the DB has been one of the most fun experiences I've had in this game and I feel humble to have had the amount of success I have so far with both you gentlemen. There's still part of me that's baffled how well GRIM has done here, but I'll enjoy the ride as long as it lasts.
(Btw, thanks for the report you posted about Musket's camp getting trashed. It helped me figure out what to write for GRIM.)
I'm in awe how good the match writing is here in Max-J and the storytelling continues to be some of the best I've read in recent memory. I love the little power struggle that seems to be happening and the sudden additional show was awesome. I'm very excited to see where we go from here.

I have had a blast thus far and thought that this tour was a lot of fun with the overarching stories.
Are you excited for how the story's moving forward? While I am somewhat "eh" on a "competing authority figure storyline," I do like how we ended up with two shows on the same day, which some roster members were able to be on both.
What surprised you the most? The announcement of the tag tournament
Is there anything you find confusing or you need clarification? Figure I would use this spot to say that just that little bit of coding has made results much easier to read.
Lots of new faces. Who has got you most excited? My rematch!
Anything else you'd like to add? Just wanted to add that I loved the finish to the main event. Anyone that watches puro for real could FEEL that brainbuster crushing Nakama's neck

And I'll give my piece here too.
Them Demon Brigade folks, tip of the cap. You guys are the best.
Also love to see a good brainbuster. Never let a brainbuster to go waste, I always say.
And I'd love to see a rematch of the title fight. Of course, I'd love to see Mike and Zenki go back at it one more time! but i'm also fine waitin around. me and jun vegas got a score to settle with some fellas, hahaha
