Every cycle I will give my feedback on the RPs that were posted. These will usually be 1-2 sentences on anything that particularly struck me .. whether it was something I liked, something that I felt just didn't click. It is meant to give you a little insight into my judging.
You can feel free to post your own feedback in this thread as well, but please be constructive.
Please note that I do not read any RPs until after the deadline is over and I read them all at the same time so I have a general idea of what might be given a 70, or a 65, or a 62 .. so on and so forth. I will not post the scores themselves, but each week I will announce what was the Roleplay of the Week.
1. Suicide: It is so great to see Suicide back. The RP explained where Suicide was, why he's back and made light of his opponent's elimination at BattleBRAWL .. can't ask for more than that.
2. Cameron Cruise: RP#1 - A great start to Season 2. This was the week's toughest match to judge, IMO. The only thing I didn't like was the reference to Tact .. and then pointing out that you made the reference .. it wasn't THAT subtle, Tommy. LOL.
3. Cameron Cruise: RP#2 - Another great RP. Something get into you this RP period or what?
You two really brought out something good in each other .. which makes reading the RPs fun and judging the RPs bad. While the scores went in the other direction, I wanted to show how close it was by not having it be a straight pinfall.
4. Mr. Entertainment: RP#1 - Brought me back to when I was 11 years old having wrestling matches with my GI Joes ... ok ok .. I was 16. Shut up. Weaving the successes of season 1 with the bright future of season 2. Good job.
5. Mr. Entertainment: RP#2 - Amazing. You found a way to bring something different with the two interviews / split screen. You really brought it to the match.
6. Fanatic: Strong RP. You hit First where it counted - his loss at the premier event, and used it as a way to further Fanatic's run to the New ERA Championship.
7. The First: A lot of RPs scored incredibly close together, and you and Pena really brought it. The RP got stronger as it progressed .. The focusing on the name Fanatic was a bit of a miss, but other than that it was a strong RP after the premier event.
8. Chaos: RP#1 - You answered the question Cruise posed to you convincingly. Chaos added to his Legend. Good RP.
9. Chaos: RP#2 - You took apart Cruise's RP without it feeling like you were just nitpicking one point after another. It flowed well. Tough choice in the match as both of you did a great job.
10. Donovan Astros: Uh-oh. Entertainment needs to watch out because Astros is going to start biting on his heels w/ the "future of New ERA" stuff! The end was extremely strong.. I particularly liked the "I'm making history and you are history" part.
11. Pro Wrestling's SJH: I really liked this RP and I think, had you had the chance to get up a second and expand on the stuff you posted in the first, the title would still be around Hart's waist. The RP scores were incredibly close. Hart talking about Entertainment being a day late, dollar short was classic.
12. Jonathan Marx: Season 2 will be good to Jonathan Marx .. I can tell. The RP was good and I can sympathize w/ Marx's wanting to win a Rumble .. but I wasn't sure what he meant by saying the World Title's legacy was born at BattleBRAWL. That could have been expanded upon so I knew what Marx was talking about.
