I wasn't trying to boost my post count I was looking on page 44 where Mr. Johnny ECW said: Okay, Womens Championship on Smackdown? Would that be a good idea seeing as all the Divas on Smackdown can make something good about it?
I didn't see page 45... OK? So stop acusing me of things for what I didn't do!

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
You did not see Page 45, yet you had already posted? Honestly, it is not the first time you have posted just for the sake of it. You do it around this entire forum.

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
The footy has finished and I'm bored now... Anyone got any links to good WWE or ROH BTB's?

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
What makes a good BTB?
I have look around here and seen a lot of WWE BTB's that are all pretty much similar and "sameish".
What makes a thread stand out?

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
Who knows; depends on taste, preference, and the like. Just because it's the "same," doesn't mean it's not good. Just because it's "different," doesn't mean it's good. Going against the grain isn't always the best of ideas, particularly when you're just starting out a BTB. Then again, being too similiar and plain in execution will inevitably cause people and yourself, to lose interest.
I myself, like description, emotion, passion, and storytelling. If a BTB does not include these qualities, then I become uninterested in it. Legend is a perfect example of this; I see in his writing all the qualities I look for, all the qualities that'd make for a perfect novel or piece of fiction, and yet, it's subtle and works in this writing environment. I admire a good storyteller; I'm not all about the "wrestling" side of booking, but I look to entertainment. This is in stark contrast to most, as most prefer a good match, but above all, I want to see some merit to that match.
DDMac is also great in this regard; I'm still reading his return show, but from what I've read, it too retains the qualities I look for. I apologize if I'm plugging anyone's BTB, but for the sake of discussion, these two bookers are my favorite right now, and therefore, it resonates to their BTB quality.

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
Originality, creativity, the ability to make charachters stand out and to make feuds stand out. Also, good writing skills are a necessity for me.

Spot fucking on. I love you in a slight homosexual way when you read my mind, 'ya know.
What Tony just said is exactly what makes a good thread.
Not just the random, run of the mill 'OMG, I AM BETTER THAN YOU, LET'S WRESTLE TO FIND OUT WHO IS BETTER'.
