Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
A fancy name means nothing, epecially if you're writing sucks.
Just name it 'ECW'.

Now onto the question, I do my shows in recap. But when I'm writing them on Microsoft Word I put the colors, italics, bolds in, etc. And then I do it on here. I find it easier and you know what color to choose and what part should be bolded and what part shouldn't be.
Now for my question, I need some help on writing some matches in recap. Whats the best way to do this?
Also, a bit of help in writing what people are saying in recap too wouldn't go a miss.

Help?

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
There are numerous things you can do to make the actual writing more entertaining. I had some useful advice once and it worked. That advice was to look up better words in a dictionary or thesorous(sp)
Also you could write how the wrestlers are feeling, what their facial expression are like, and try explaning the moves in more detail.
All these things will help, you just need to describe things in more detail.
Also I have a question. Has anyone ever planned two seperate threads and been undecided as to which one to start up?

Nope. You really should stick to one plan and absolutely go for it, or else don't go for anything at all.

Thanks.

I can never sit down and pound one out (~______~), so over the course of a couple of days or so, I end up writing for about thirty minutes at a time. Probably ends up being about five hours.

Re: BTB Discussion Thread - May 2008
Just wondering, are you allowed to make up new superstars and people to be in your BTB, like create new people?

a)"it's an awful idea" is just your opinion and does not help him in his question
and
b) Why bash E-fedding? I am sure there are great E-feds out there that are not "shit".
To answer your question Melvisboy, most people do not like creating new characters because it takes a lot fo time and you have to have constant readers, that keep up with your thread. I did try it once with a backyard-fed (so I was using all unknowns), but I ran out of ideas and I found it to time consuming.
