Synergy: April 26 Predictions

[Jet Somers]

R!, I hadn't heard from you, so let's discuss some ideas after the PPV about contributions to your ezine.

And here we go!

Triple Threat Match

Andy Savana
Vs
John Russo
Vs
Travis Pierce

Ref: Hazel East
Purse: G$180,000

Winner: Travis Pierce, hands down. The Piercing Truth is really making a mark on UGWC, and Pierce has nearly everyone's number when he interviews them. He's quick, sly, and he knows when it's time to call the show. If matches reflect promos, he should dominate this one.

Singles Match

Eric Gold
Vs
“Joker” Mark Matthews

Ref: Owen Peterson
Purse: G$240,000

Winner: "Joker" Mark Matthews. The quality of jokes are just better, all around, in their biting cynicism over pure slapstick.

Tag Team Match

Dirge & Phrixus Deimos
Vs
JK & Medos

Ref: Brian Chartreuse
Purse: G$360,000

Winners: Dirge and Phrixus Deimos. I'll be honest, had Medos put in a solid effort this week, I think they could have edged out a win over the other team, but you've got to bring 110% to beat two top competitors like Dirge and Deimos, so...


Fatal Fourway Match
Winner decides who is imprisoned in Prison Break

Chassie Fear (w/ Raenius)
Vs
Derick Felix (w/ David Lopes)
Vs
Johnny Blake (w/ Duncan Ryder)
Vs
Tyvola (w/ Travis Roberts)

Ref: Sam Green
Purse: G$432,000

Winner: Johnny Blake. While Felix and Ty are going to come really close, I think Blake's strong characterization and Duncan's support showed a good understanding of all the opponents in the match, and that'll be the edge that puts him in the winning place.

Six Man Tag

Donovan Hastings, Alex Kiseragi, and Jet Somers
Vs
Red Fusion, Jason Grant, and Kyle Tacker

Ref: Glenn Burke
Purse: G$900,000

Winners: Flipping the old coin: Donovan Hastings, Alex Kiseragi, and Jet Somers! Good luck guys!

['The Cyclone' JK]

Triple Threat Match

Andy Savana
Vs
John Russo
Vs
Travis Pierce

Ref: Hazel East
Purse: G$180,000

Winner: Travis Pierce, Andy's promo was just too damn confusing, I mean, who the hell is Clent? or whatever that guys name was, John's piece was good, but I don't know any of the characters that well, so the only choice of a victor here (for me anyway) is Travis Pierce.

Singles Match

Eric Gold
Vs
“Joker” Mark Matthews

Ref: Owen Peterson
Purse: G$240,000

Winner: "Joker" Mark Matthews. To be honest, I havn't really been a big fan of Eric Gold, his character is a bit too cliche heel for my liking. Once there is a bit less repetiton in his promos (The insulting videos are a bit annoying after a while) then maybe I could see him start to get some great matches and wins under his bealt.

Tag Team Match

Dirge & Phrixus Deimos
Vs
JK & Medos

Ref: Brian Chartreuse
Purse: G$360,000

Winners: I gotta go with JK and Medos, namely because of the fact that I have to stay positive and all; but Dirge and Deimos seem to focus too much on one person rather than the others in the match.

Fatal Fourway Match
Winner decides who is imprisoned in Prison Break

Chassie Fear (w/ Raenius)
Vs
Derick Felix (w/ David Lopes)
Vs
Johnny Blake (w/ Duncan Ryder)
Vs
Tyvola (w/ Travis Roberts)

Ref: Sam Green
Purse: G$432,000

Winner: Tyvola. The mountain of a man put in a damned entertaining RP this week, which made me laugh fairly hard. The only thing that toped the laughter from Sue, was eD tackling the 'niglett' Owen Peterson.

Six Man Tag

Donovan Hastings, Alex Kiseragi, and Jet Somers
Vs
Red Fusion, Jason Grant, and Kyle Tacker

Ref: Glenn Burke
Purse: G$900,000

Winners: Donny, A-Kis, and Jet. You all put in awesome RPs which all played off eachother well; it would have been closer if there was more characters on the opposing team which had done some RPs, or been involved in RPs; but I have not seen anything from Fusion,Tacker only got a minor mention, and didn't see anything from the inferno.

[Red Bull Icon]

why not

Triple Threat Match

Andy Savana
Vs
John Russo
Vs
Travis Pierce

Ref: Hazel East
Purse: G$180,000

Mitchell Dennis, because if not this week than soon I imagine he's going to start having a lot of fun at the expense of people with complete bios. Stuff like height, weight, fighting style, nicknames. That kinda stuff. I wonder if midget Kris Austing is still available.


Singles Match

Eric Gold
Vs
“Joker” Mark Matthews

Ref: Owen Peterson
Purse: G$240,000

The duckee's. I hope the finish of their match ends a terbulant time of rubber duckees around the world. END THE OPPRESSION


Tag Team Match

Dirge & Phrixus Deimos
Vs
JK & Medos

Ref: Brian Chartreuse
Purse: G$360,000

Warren's killer and Paul Cockatoo. Both get a week off, but both I sense will be getting their's shortly.


Fatal Fourway Match
Winner decides who is imprisoned in Prison Break

Chassie Fear (w/ Raenius)
Vs
Derick Felix (w/ David Lopes)
Vs
Johnny Blake (w/ Duncan Ryder)
Vs
Tyvola (w/ Travis Roberts)

Ref: Sam Green
Purse: G$432,000

I'm hoping everyone in the Prison Break Match. My ideal set up would be a clear definition of what a Prison Break Match is, and whether the winner gets to pick 4 people or half of each team to go to jail. Hopefullly Lieberjosch can shed some light.


Six Man Tag

Donovan Hastings, Alex Kiseragi, and Jet Somers
Vs
Red Fusion, Jason Grant, and Kyle Tacker

Ref: Glenn Burke
Purse: G$900,000

Got I hope Fusion, Grant, and Tacker or no one's gonna catch up to the penny pinching Somers.

I'd also add that I like the attempt, but really think this is a bad way to go about shooting for a more active OOC community. I havn't seen a problem yet, but with such a huge potential for a flame war to kick off I don't think it's really worth it. I'm not an ooc type guy mostly though so I have no suggestions. I'll steal savana's though and suggest a fantasy booking thread instead. Leave the 'votes' for blind ppv ballots. My 2 cent wall o text.

[Jet Somers]

I respect your thoughts.

Let me say that this is not all I had in mind, but as I've said over the past few prediction threads, I've been super busy at work over this month, and I haven't had time to launch my other ideas.

I like this because it's an expansion on the 'feedback' thread. Feedback tends to get a little... ass kissing in my opinion. There's not enough constructive criticism, and if we can see people's opinions of WHY someone won (even if they aren't 100% accurate), it might put a little more fire into rps than 'hey man, good piece, i lol'ed'

I wouldn't think this would start a flame war, I'd hope we are all more mature than that. It'd be a tall hope, there's one in every family after all, heh.

Also, as R! has suggested, this will eventually end up in his ezine, and if it doesn't start taking off here, I'll move it there fully.

Interesting that you touched on the PPV stuff though, because I was wondering about that. If I give out my predictions on that, it pretty much ruins the point of my blind ballot, or anyone's who might participate. I was thinking if I should forgo predicting the PPV altogether, or... posting them BEFORE everyone starts roleplaying (since a ppv win is supposed to be based on your work for the entire month). What you think?

[T-Robosaurus Rex]

If you were to do one for the PPV it would work ideally directly after this weeks show. As in your thoughts after the month so far, and like you say that way it does not spoil the blind vote.

As for feedback, I think most people are rushed when doing it, therefore constructive criticism is difficult because if you don't word it properly it can be easily misinterpreted.

[Lord Hastings]

Or you could do PPV predictions in an IC style.

['The Cyclone' JK]

epic idea^ do it!

[Jet Somers]

hmmm....

['The Cyclone' JK]

where's the predictions? I can't wait man.....

[Jet Somers]

lol Yeah I was going to do the in character thing, but I was hardpressed, as I've told you.

Maybe soon the work situation will smooth out and I can really show you guys how much i can pump up this ooc
