Still got a story to tell? Just Wrestling wants you.

[neonHyde]

Once more it is that time of the year, and Just Wrestling is throwing open its doors to any and all e-wrestling writers who want a change of pace, or a little flexibility, or the chance to hone their skills in a unique roleplay-based environment. If you don't already know, Just Wrestling is the place that is JUST about the roleplaying - nothing more, nothing less. Just Wrestling runs on a touring basis, so you're only committed for five shows and then you can go and do your thing elsewhere, no questions asked - or stick around if you like what's building around you.

We've housed some of this hobby's finest writers. Been reading GTT7? Terrence Kingsley laid the groundwork for "Den of Snakes" on a Just Wrestling tour. Impressed by Andy Murray mopping up all of GCW's 2009 Awards? It took him three tries to defeat our two-time champion Aaron Nothings. Because we don't sign wrestlers to long-term written contracts, we're unusual in that we get a large number of the finest e-wrestlers hopping over to Just for a short while to try something new. Maybe you should be one of them.

This time last year we ran a Lethal Lottery tournament. Twenty people signed up, and we paired them randomly into tag teams via a live AIM draw. It was a lot of fun, and more importantly it made for a great tournament. Eventually Meat and Aaron Nothings came out as the winners, and it's the Tag Team Trophy that they currently hold that you'll be competing for. If that's not enough for you, as is traditional the winning pair will also have the chance at a Just Wrestling Championship shot - but they'll have to face off against each other to decide who gets it!

Current Just Wrestling Champion Jay Terror will lead the charge across the Atlantic as, for the first time, we'll be touring Britain! I've selected five of the UK's finest and most hallowed wrestling venues - so for you UK-based e-fedders, this is a great chance to write for a tour in the places that you know and love. Like Stockport. We all know and love Stockport, right? ...

Seriously, though. Hop on over for a Just Wrestling tour. I'd list the testimonials about what great fun it is here, but there are just too many of them now. (I'm serious. I have them saved in a Word document.) Sign-ups for this tour close on 21 January, and the tour and tournament both begin one week later. If you've got any questions about how Just Wrestling works or how the tournament will be run, don't hesitate to contact me. The website is at http://just.supremepixels.com, where the Concept page should tell you everything you need to know.

Just Wrestling - because it works.

Thanks for your time.

You know .. Just Wrestling has always intrigued me.. Maybe I'll throw my hat into the ring ...

Bumping this also... because more people should take a look

 

[neonHyde]

We're very keen to spread our horizons as wide as we can across different communities of e-wrestling, so if you do throw your hat I will gratefully catch in. We've historically been quite PTC-centred but I'm trying to expand out of that and it looks like we'll be getting some sign-ups from the WfWA circle this time, which is great; anyone and everyone from the FW circle is more than welcome to join us.

 

[TheOriginalSE]

I've decided that I will put in an app. Expect it sometime this week.

I highly recommend other FWC'ers check it out. Fantastic idea ... executed well. What more can you ask for?

 

[User Poets]

Thinking about it. Looks like an interesting time.

 

[John Doe]

Looks and sounds very promising. I'm sold on Just Wrestling, I'll be leaping in with Sean.

 

[neonHyde]

Awesome news guys. I think I'm talking to one of you on AIM right now, but I'm not familiar with all your usernames so I'll leave myself hanging as to which one of you it is.

Looking forward to having some more of you fine FW people across at Just for five weeks

 

[neonHyde]

Thanks to all of the FWers who've thrown their hats into the ring so far. Just a gentle reminder that there are 72 hours left to get applications in before I cut them off in advance of the live tournament draw. The first two teams were confirmed this afternoon on the Just website, and I will introduce the remainder of the touring roster in news articles spanning the next three days.

I know not all of you will be interested, but at least some will, so I just wanted to point out a bit more publicly than on the Just Wrestling forums that I will be conducting the draw for this year's 2nd instalment of the Lethal Lottery live on UStream and AOL Instant Messenger tonight from 11pm GMT. Even if you don't care about Just Wrestling, at least you get to see Hyde pulling some slips of paper out of a real genuine hat.

To see the video draw LIVE, head to http://www.ustream.tv/channel/just-wrestling-test-show from 11pm GMT (6pm EST). That's eight hours from now.

If you'd also like to get in on the AIM chat that will accompany the draw, the best you can do is check the thread at http://community.primetimecentral.net/showthread.php?p=321753 once the video feed has gone live. In that thread I'll post instructions on how to get into the AIM chat we'll be running concurrently with the video draw, for reactions, predictions, and just general humourous banter.

It should be a great night, and it'd be nice to see as many of you over there for the draw as are interested.
