6/2 RP: Founding of Youth and Innovation

[CBT]

Founding of Youth and Innovation

"Cocaine's a hell of a drug."
Who said that, was it Rick James or Dave Chappelle?
Either way it doesn't matter because the high I once was on to be a professional wrestler in this day and age, when a great one is needed, I've seemed to have withdrawed myself from being.
I mean like anybody I need my fix. But everytime I reach into my pocket, I come up empty, not even an I.O.U.
It's not as if it doesn't consume my every being. But often times I wonder, if I went cold turkey, would that really make me a better person?
Say I joined society Is that gonna shield me, from the long term damage this drug I call a sport will yield on me? Or maybe I was fucked from the get go.
I don't really know, but even with championship gold bestowed around my waist, for whatever the reason I don't feel complete.
Some say for every drug there is a reason. It fills the void of a missing piece.
But when you factor in my lifestyle, even at full excess, I can't ever be complete.
With the WFOFA tag team title on my left shoulder, the WFWF international title on my right.
If the drug does more good than bad, remind me why I'd fight.

OOC: So going into this I did pretty much intend to give Dean the one up. Not to discredit him as a challenger, he's worthy of the belt, so I congratulate him and know he and Thunder will steal the show come PPV time.
But yea, just to put people on the in, alittle. I'm having really bad times, but nothing I can't get by. I just hope that nobody takes what I say the wrong way, I kind of went off on Wayne. Mainly making valid points, but overall he's done no wrong. So yea, this is me trying pull some silver lining out of a bunch of grey clouds.

[thesouthsidekid]

CBT, I mean Mark. Thank you man, from the bottom of my heart. To win the title off you, is an honor, even though I don't like how it happened, and that you couldn't give me a better showing. I give you kudos for admitting that your personal life is not going well. Life comes first man, and that is the thing you need to take care of first. Wayne is doing a hell of a job, so the fed is in good hands.

[sonstuds]

And to think, you call Calvin's character an emo.

can a title just not change cleanly around here? all three of the main titles have changed because of no-show now..

Yukio Blaze.

I didn't intend to comment, due to the fact I didn't take great pride in writing this, but I will.

1. I never called Lee's character emo. Neither in character or out. I however may have ooc, to the person behind the character. So I dunno if that was a comment aimed at me or thought out loud for everybody.

2. This is not a no-show, a no-show is not roleplaying at all. So I don't see how it validates.

3. Aside from that, I already was scheduled for a match at PPV. I don't need the belt, per-say. In a nutshell, Dean won the belt because I felt a match with him would be a great first and he's where you need to be as far as holding that belt. Him and Thunder should have an awesome match for it.

Really all I can say. I'm not on the out again, I just can't scratch the rust with some shit going on. I've had alot of good like getting closing to being on the road, but yea... I'm not dead or on the watch list. I just kinda had to let the ball roll as far as this match, but never did I intend to give the belt without defending it.

Oh and to answer a question. I was more favorable of the switch, but Dean was never guaranteed a win. While also this being his third title match he'd had in three consecutive weeks, he knew I was giving him a chance to step-up, not an easy title win.

didn't Kurt no-show that match?

I'm very sure his roleplay was a co-op with Thunder.
Also your title win was really the only no-show after further review. I beat Wayne who show, Dean beat me who showed, Blaze beat Axis who showed, Axis beat those Vacancy and Phenomenon, and might I add Rev beat you.

It was a joke anyways. *Shrugs*

Eh, I don't really know about that. It is kind of iffy, just in the sense you admit you're basically throwing the match.

That said, Josh Dean holding the International Title ends up benefiting the WFWF, so it all works out.

[SIH]

Yeah, I agree with EBR. If you were planning on letting Josh Dean win the match, wouldn't it have been easier to just award him the title or something? Or you could've had CBT forfeit the title, and Josh Dean face someone else for the title on FDS?

[thesouthsidekid]

Hey don't spoil my moment here fellas, please with a cherry

[Calvin]

parcipations rps are basically no shows with the "I'm only doing this so I don't get a no show onmy record" saying. I see no difference. Winning a title due to that is just as bad as winning via no show imo...

HOwever, congrats Josh Dean.

That's a good point. I remember Al getting bashed for his stoned roleplay.

[CBT]

Why I see more logic in the participation roleplay over calling this a no show.
I think considering that deadline isn't up, this is hardly me roleplaying just to say I did. Though without a doubt, Dean and I know, I could do better.

Though I do laugh at this being Dean's moment. Ok, I'm just being mean. Like E said, Dean is a good predeccessor. I think for a while the belt was important, but the people fighting over it were buying time. I don't need to hold the belt if I got plans, when guys like Thunder, Dean, Dane, David, ect, ect, ect... and Blaze could represent the belt well.
Though to be fair, I finally lost a belt in this promotion, in a semi-fair mannor. No stripping me of a belt or losing in controversy...

Oh and Lee, while I do see everyone as worthy of winning at anytime they are at there best, don't be fooled that guys aren't consider in line for a title.
While I may not be in it to win it, it being the title. This match wasn't a throw-away, and Dean didn't win it in a half-assed mannor because ideally whether I destroyed him or he destroyed me, I thought he was the best choice to take the title.

Now had he bombed, I'd find some alternative. But as obvious now, Dean vs Thunder will happen at PPV. Two of which deserve the belt, and I would have had no problem facing.

[Calvin]

..so are you basically saying you purposely posted a crapty rp so Dean would win? Is that what you are saying??? Because if that's what you mean...that is EXTREMELY low....and I wouldn't accept it if I was Dean...

[thesouthsidekid]

Calvin, shut up for a minute ok. What he's trying to say is that myself and Thunder right now could do more with the belt that he could, hence why he dropped it to me. Whatever his plans are (I'd assume either moving into the World Title scene) he felt that the IN title would lose it's prestige if it weren't his main focus, which by what he is saying, or at least how I'm interpreting it, would have been the scenario.

Now for you to insinuate that I'm not going to be a worthy champion I find insulting. Just because the way I won this title may not be the best in nature, it isn't because I didn't earn it at some point. I can point out what I've done since I've been here, but I'm not going to do that, you can read my profile and make the judgement for yourself. But either way, I'll keep the prestige in this title. Kthxbye.

[Calvin]

first of all. Not once did I say you were NOT worthy of the title. I just said that it is extremely low and sad that he intentially lost a title, because he has "better things in mind." There is no shot against you. People jump to conclusions way too easily here.

Secondly, why are you all of a sudden jumping on me? You said yourself you didn't like how you won it. All I basically did was agree with you...so I don't get it.

And thirdly, well, I said congrats....what else do you want from me?

[thesouthsidekid]

I didn't like the way that I won the title, but at the same token, I can respect that CBT dropped the title to me so that it can keep it's prestige.

Calvin isn't saying anything about you as a roleplayer and whether or not you'll be a bad champ, he's saying how he thinks it's dumb that C just posts a participation roleplay. One, that quite frankly, your three paragraph "messages to __" at the end of your roleplays will beat on a frequent basis.

I don't have a problem with C purposely mailing it in and losing. In fact, I would have defended him if he just straight up no showed. My problem is how he does this, yet Alex did the same exact thing against someone who no showed and CBT called him out on it.

[cureforthesickness]

what gets me is defending it as if it were an all and all three hour "write your ing heart out" roleplay. Booking around designed losses doesn't work in efedding, and to me, this god's honestly looks like a designed loss by all accounts.
