Just judged the Wrestling Division title match... good lord, it's just so much quality each way. You guys put on a showcase. MotN, from the 4-5 matches I judged. Looking forward to seeing who was who.

The runner up, and not far off tbh, was the Social 4-way. There were two that were neck-and-neck, with the other two very close behind. Admirable job, and like the above, looking forward to putting names to the debates.

Finally, I was asked to comment on the CGS / STEVIE matchup. One of the three fell flat on both sides, but the other two debates were well-argued and close matches in my eyes.

Should be a fun results show. I keep forgetting that I was actually on this card.

:mark:



Social has some excellent competition. Having seen the current roster though, it disappoints me that there are only 9 active competitors.

Social
[user]SPCDRI[/user] - Politics (Military), Religion and Philosphy, Music, Literature and Film.
[user]pinkandblack[/user] - No music/movies/TV
[user]Stax Classic[/user] - No entertainment
[user]RAB[/user] - Anything. Ideally No TV or Pop Music
[user]Anark[/user] - Fucking everything, really, apart from that cut and paste RnB crap and modern hip hop, if they're still calling it that.
[user]Tater[/user] - No Pop Music.
[user]Bearodactyl[/user] - Anything
[user]Black Element[/user] - Anything.
[user]Coach.[/user] - Anything bar past history

Inactive:
[user]DestrosSecret[/user] - Anything.
[user]Rigby[/user] - Anything
[user]Hollywood Hanoi[/user] - http://www.wrestlingforum.com/30340529-post51.html
[user]AwSmash[/user] - Anything.



We need to sign more talent from the Indies to beef up our roster.

@Zombo I have a feeling on which one that is and wouldn't be surprised if I'm right. Obviously as the first time this has been done just a lil feedback for Seabs and co.

Must admit I did find it tough having to divide my attention between 3 topics across the week rather than one main one. 800 words over one topic is a lot easier than 1,500 over three. Also the 500 word limit was a bit of bitch in terms of going into serious analysis.An extra 100 words or so or even an extra day or two would have come in handy though.One positive I can draw from it though is that it helped in terms of focusing on one or two major points and keeping them short and sweet rather than throwing in a third weaker point just because you have an Extra 200 odd words spare or babbling on about one point again due to surplus word count.

All in all decent enough debate to be involved in and happy I got the chance to do it. Would defo say keep it limited to a certain range of talent to really utilise it fully otherwise like Zombo said you'll have maybe or or two really great one from each and then another just falling really flat.

:hmm:



^imo2

And if the topics weren't about current storylines, but about the business side, or the past, or anything that needs any research, this would've been even more of a pain. No way I could've pulled it off in a day then.

But hey, it'll all be worth it when one of us gets to choose the other's username :hb

Edit: And that's gotta be that Lana debate right? :side:

I can do it as soon as you need me to really. I still was in the mindset that we just got the debates sent to us and I had some time. Time flies when you're having fun :side:

Shut up, RAB. Don't make me break kayfabe and explain how I totally understand why judging takes time, especially when every debate on the card has an extended word count. Giving shit to slow judges is much more fun.

Maybe if you were a little less thick headed and learned how to play along, maybe just maybe your debates would be better.

:positivity

These Social eliminator guys are cracking me up. You actually sound like you all want to win, lol. Don't you know what your prize is? Don't you know what's waiting for you?

Look what happened to the last guy who blasted his way through the contenders...

I'm signing out indefinitely
The words of a man in ruin, bereft of hope, and nursing wounds so deep they can never heal.

Is that what you want, Tater, RAB, Stax and Bear? Do you really want to win these contender matches?

I suppose I should admire your bravery. Though maybe my eyes aren't what they were because the line between courage and stupidity has never looked blurrier.

I'm very sorry for my delay in judging everyone. I've been very busy these last few days with moving out, moving in, school, internship, and work. I wanted to make sure I still left quality feedback for everyone. The last bits of my judging should be in this evening.

Response A: take your time, Aid. Judging is important to the TDL process. Without guys like you, none of this would work. Without the hard work of the judges and their invaluable feedback, none of us losers would ever learn how to up our game.

:bow The TDL Judges.

TDL comes first Aid, life comes second. :kappa
Response B: The fuck, yo? These fucking judges take goddamned forever. I'm ready for some fucking results already and we got a bunch of pathetic losers taking their sweet ass time getting in their judging results. FFS, man... these judges need to get their act together.





I really could go either way. Hey judges, go with A or B based on whatever makes you feel more motivated.
