Kyzer and the Rumble

[Kyzer]

I just want to know what people opinions are. I can understand where Yukio is coming from in one way not allowing former champions in the rumble. But I can see how it particularly sucks for me since I have never been in the rumble, didn't even have a match at the last SAS. And I was only in the world title picture because Chris Avalon dropped out two weeks before Superbrawl last year and no one was left to fill his shoes.

I was hoping for the chance to go for the world title this as not being part of the operating partners. To find out now that I can't be in it was a bit disappointing.

To be honest without me in there, it will come down to three people, CBT, EBR, and Calvin. For me to be in it would add a little competition to the rumble, and I have no problem rping for both.

Now don't turn this into a bash session on Yukio, I am not mad at him. I just want to know what the masses think.

I think McGurk's in the Battle Royal, so that's four.

And I dunno, I voted for yes because biasness aside and the fact I want to win it, it just doesn't make much sense to me. Not having previous Battle Royal winners is fine, but the whole "You can't be a champion since 2005 and be in it" is what's kind of leaves me confused. It's just such a weird guideline. Why 2005 and why does someone from 2003 get a pass on it?

[x0kimmy]

I said no.

The only reason being because if you did win it again, it wouldn't be fair to others who haven't had that chance to try and become a champion.

[Calvin]

I think so, because well, just because you win it before shouldn't take you out. I mean, that's liek saying you can only be champion once.

Just to clarify things, I have never won the SAS rumble, I have never been in it. I won the title against Rev. at last years Super Brawl. Rev. won the rumble last year.

ohh. In that case yeah you should. Sorry ahah

[DGX]

I voted no because I don't know who you are and I don't like your name.

It reminds me of a bun I had a bad eating experience with...



Basically the reason I REALLY voted no is because I believe that the Rumble should be more about new people have a chance to make the jump to the main scene. I've gone over some of your work just skimmed and you seem to be a talented roleplayer on a very high level. Put simply it's like putting an Olympic gold medal hockey player in a World Junior Cup team.

I understand that you would want to be in the rumble just for the sake of having never been in one, but with your presence and the presence of others who are champion level roleplayers, it kinda trounces most peoples chances in it and speaking from experience, most young talent see someone whose really talented or see a mass of talented writers before them, and just don't bother to roleplay at all, figuring "what's the point? I'm gonna lose anyway". Basically I think it just boils down to keeping all the participants with in a certain skill level so the person judgeing has kind of an idea what kind of talent pool he'll be judgeing against each other.

[Mr. PerpetuaLynch Motion]

But to be fair, a champion quality roleplayer deserves a shot at another champion quality roleplayer for the championship. And for that reason, I voted yes to let Kyzer into the Rumble. Even if it means he will stomp the competition, I think it would feel like a tainted victory if anyone else won the rumble without Kyzer being present because then it truly wasn't a display of the best of the best WFWF has to offer. Kyzer being present in the rumble would force everyone involved in the match to step up and bring their A game to have as close to a championship quality RP as they physically possibly can. Reserving the spots to new comers and those of lesser talent would defeat the purpose of the entire match...

[CBT]

I vote yes only if anybody who roleplays for this won't say nothing if they don't win.

Now E wants to win. I want to win. I don't doubt Lee wants to win, alittle. Valentine's post implies he does. Well, that leaves Kyzer's position in question... yeah because he's obviously not interested in winning.

I guess what I'm saying is, Kyzer is a hell of an rper. But I don't want him in if the owners can't say "this guy won and that was our call- no bullsh*t."

I don't care if the roleplay that essentially wins this, sucks. You quote me that I won't bitch and will move another plan in motion, if I don't win. So yeah, Kyzer man. If you can put out your best, and see what happens with no expectations.... I say join the party.

We don't need another SOTF. Where more than one person deserves to win, but the owners decide on somebody, and can't support that person. Leaving the winner and the runner-up feeling like sh*t.

[cureforthesickness]

I voted yes because there's only three people left in WFWF I really want to work with.. One I've got a program set in motion.. one planned for one when the time is right.. and one is the subject of this poll..

want to complain about Kyzer being in the Rumble? Write a better roleplay. If you aren't the best, you shouldn't win. Unless you are Thunder or facing Thunder. Then it's okay.

[bad guy™]

I did not vote, but I would have to say yes.

[Kurt Burton: Script Doctor!]

I voted yes... although I would like to state something.

Yes, Kyzer is one of..(if not the) best Rp'ers in this fed right now. However, these multi-people contests should be about who has the better RP on that night. If... let's say, Jake Slash finally stops describing his love of pain, and puts out the single most amazing RP ever, he should win... period. The Thunderstruck effect needs to stop. I have seen on quite a few occasions, (note, this is not knocking Yukio & Mike, as I have not been around for too much controversy with them) that people have won based on the merits of their past works and not the RP of the week. That is unfair to the guys who are starting to come into their own, and could be the great dark horse, for instance Deville, Possessed Child just to name a few. SO please Mike & Yukio, keep this in mind.

[Thunder]

It's one thing to say Rev shouldn't be in because he won, but saying Kyzer shouldn't be in because he was world champ less than 2 years ago is pretty ridiculous. If I was Kyzer, I would be mad about this. So, some of the Rumble participants might not like that Kyzer is in it? The reaction to him being in it shouldn't be "I'll never win so take him out". It should be "I better step up my game." Kyzer deserves to be in it just as much as anybody.

And we better hope that the Thunderstruck Effect doesn't take place in the Rumble. Of course, the odds of it happening go down since I'm not in it, but there is a call as bad as SOTF (which I admit I shouldn't have won) there will probably be an even bigger uproar than last time. Please, decide carefully. Hell, have another judge or something. Just make sure the winner isn't so wrong that everyone would be ready to burn the owners at the stake again.

I'm curious as to what matches you're talking about. Hopefully they don't all involve Thunder.

Deville isn't a dark horse. He won every match he was in, fairly convincingly with the exception of SOTF. He was seen as the consensus top guy, who just so happened to be on the HS for one reason or another.

Possessed Child I'll agree with. He's pretty bad ass and in some instances rather underrated.

Idol vs Horror as mentioned on one of the other boards.

Me & Thunder vs Josh Dean and someone... Dean smoked our asses.

Some people said controversial stuff during the WHT tourny, but I think every match in there was really close.

U vs me when I stole the mailbox. ANd if you check the comments, everyone, including the owners, said yours was funny but overall only alright, and mine was the best I had done to that point.

And then in the house shows it has happened a million and a half times under both Yuke's and Obo.

Well obviously we're both biased, but that doesn't really mean anything. Someone's average work could still beat someone's best to that point. I'm not saying that's the case in our's, but in certain situations it could be.

But your comment about my RP is wrong, considering the only ones who replied were you saying my Abbott and Castillo inspired routine went on for to long and was pounding the point (which it was supposed to, but I miss several things in RPs as well (IE: Rev's sermons) so I'm not mad or anything) and that I ripped off some thing I had never heard of, and then Calvin saying it was good. Rev and C never replied, and admittedly because of that I thought I'd lose.

[Markw]

I voted Kyzer should be allowed in the Rumble
