Grandma Took Me Home
We have a six days before the end of the extended role play period and I'm extremely happy with the turn out so far. We lost two, possibly four handlers as a result of the hiatus but we retained to bulk of the roster and actually gained two handlers during said hiatus.
So all in all ... I'd say we are in good shape.
I really want to keep this moving and get a good pace going so we can all get back on track. That being the case anyone willing to act as a match writer for the card please check in below and don't be surprised if you get you match (sans the finish) and day or two early to get a jump start on things.
Speaking of match writing... (see what I did there?)
I'm going to need just as much help and participation from everyone that Justin was receiving. Under his tenure I wrote at least one match a card and sometimes two. So two or three won't kill me but... If the lower I can keep in the better we'll all be so that I can focus on the continuity of the card as a whole and making sure we churn out the best product as possible in a swift fashion.
All that being said, one of the biggest time killers for me is editing format and protecting the character of our IWF commentary team. So to help (note: NOT insult anyone's intelligence.) I put together a few guides based on how I've written for IWF, things Justn an I discussed over my time as a handler, and just some things that always seemed to have fell between the cracks. All open for discussion, notes, corrections and the like ... of course.
Please, if your going to help write please take a second to at least skim these and/or use them as reference in your writing. As always you can reach me easily via PM, or AIM (KaeGiaconaIND)
These guides can be found here: League Info
I would also like to raise a question and see how everyone feels about it...
With the help of Strawsma I recently started to use Google Doc's a little more then I even have. One awesome thing I found was the live multi-user editing it featured.
So, my thought is ... if match writers as well as segment writers were to write (or at least copy and paste) their progress into Google docs as they write, and PM me the link I could:

- Track progress of the show more efficiently.
- Solve/Alleviate issues and/or conflicts well ahead of time.
- Be able to leave notes, and such during the writing instead of after, hence improving the overall continuity of the show.
- (Notes would of course pertain to intro/outro of segments and matches and how they fit into a show. If Paz is being used a segment before you pen her in your peice that would be nice to know with a little advanced notice.)
