You chose the new co-owner

[Damien Porter]

Below there are 2 things, the first is the co-owner interview. The next is a table with the three finalists. It has a summary of there responses. it does not mention there names, non of you are even you know who they are. I want your thorts on each person. You will basically deside who it is.


1. Why do you want to become the co-owner?

2. What can you bring to DUEW as a co-owner?

3. Using history from your own wrestlers here in DUEW, tell my why You deserve to become the new co-owner.




The following tasks you must complete so I can judge your skill level.

An rp of at least 1200 words. It must include at least one of your characters and 2 characters that are not you. And at least 1 character that is not allied with you. It is not for any match.

Right a possible card for after effects the culmination.

The following task must be completed within half an hour of you reading it. Don’t read it until you have 30 min to spear. Yes of course you could cheat and spend longer on it but if you get the position you are goanna have to trust me and I am goanna have to trust you so please don’t cheat. The next sentence is going to be the task so don’t read on until you have 30 minutes with nothing else to do.


Ok, here it is. You are to right a match, it can be anyone v anyone (past or present) for what ever title you want if you want it to be. It does not have to be a one on one match. It must be a normal match type, you do not have to include there entrances. However I am going to give a name for the match. It will be called Good v Evil.

match	, Jonny V Nicho.... Announcer: the following contest is scheduled for 1 fall and its for the DUEW world heavyweight champion ship! ‘In the end’ hits the speakers and the challenger Nicho “Z” makes his way down to the ring Jonny stripes music hits the speakers and makes his way down to the ring with his the world title on his shoulder Both men are now standing in the ring! The Bell Rings and both Nicho ‘Z’ and Johnny stripes are yet to make any move as they stare at each other with a vicious grin, nicho begins to make his move and they finally lock up with the crowed roaring in the background as these 2 big guns collide! Nicho quickly pulls jonny in to a side headlock but jonny is quick to get out of it and Irish whip nicho into the ropes, nicho flies back at him and takes him down with a huge clothesline! The match continues and jonny gets nicho in a suplex position and picks him up and holds the 7 foot giant in the air for quite some time before dropping him heavily on his back, jonny then looks to the top rope and makes his way up there very quickly and while his up there he gives a quick middle finger to the crowed and then delivers a flying elbow which has put nicho in a lot of trouble! Jonny is slow to get to his feet aswell because the flying elbow took a lot out of him as well but the crowed chanting nicho’s name is just getting him pumped up, jonny gives him a number of chops but nothing is effecting nicho at this time with the crowed behind him, jonny then irish whips him against the ropes and nicho this time comes out with a shoulder block and the crowed are going crazy but jonny is quick to get to his feet but then suddenly drops to his knees and gives nicho a low-blow! The ref allows the fight to go on as this is for the DUEW world title! Nicho and jonny both make there way to the outside of the ring and jonny throws him into the steel stairs and nothing is looking good for nicho now, jonny rolls back into the ring and poses to the crowed and the fans just boo him madly but the ref must start the count out for nicho.. Ref: 1…2…3…4…5….6 Nicho gets to his feet Ref: 7…8… Nicho rolls back into the ring and jonny is starting to look frustrated as he has to find another way to just keep nicho down… jonny then ditches out a couple of body shots and then gives nicho a huge DDT Tom C: that has got to be all!! Jonny slowly rolls over for the pin… 1…2…. Kick Out!, the crowed jump to there feet and get behind the challenger for the world title, out of no where jonny delivers his finishing move (not sure what its called) and jonny now has a cheeky grin on his face as he makes the cocky cover, 1…2….. KICK OUT!! The crowed scream even louder and jonny is now looking even more angry, he then picks nicho up again and delivers another brutal finisher and surely its all over now! 1…2…. KICK OUT AGAIN!!! Jonny is nearly taring his hair out and he then says out loud… “IVE HAD ENOUGH!” and jonny rolls out of the ring and gets 2 steal chairs, he brings them both in the ring and sets up to hit nicho but the ref takes the chair away and while the ref is taking the chair out of the ring jonny goes to use the other one and as he piks it up he gets a big boot to the head by nicho… jonny is now all dazed and as he gets back up to his feet and nicho sets him up into a fireman’s carry position and then delivers the ‘Nicho Drop’ (F-5), nicho goes for the cover and the ref is back and focused on the match 1…2…….3 The ref calls for the bell… “DING! DING! DING! Announcer: the winner of the match… and NEEEWWWWW DUEW world champion, NICHO “Z”!	Nicho vs. Pyro Nicho and Pyro starts to give to the other to try their punches.

Diiiiisssturbed! “Crowd lets out a massive cheer” *Kashmir by Led Zeplin begins and the crowd let out an enormous boo as Jonny comes out onto the stage, yelling out the crowd members. He makes his way down to the ring* Ring announcer – Making his way down to the ring, weighing in at 270 pounds - Jonny Stripes! “Crowd boo at the sound of his name” The bell rings and their off. Stripes and Disturbed lock up, each trying to throw there opponent to the group. Disturbed lands the first shot, knocking Stripes flat onto his back. Stripes quickly jumps back up to his feet only to be caught half way by Disturbed, and DDT’ed hard into the mat. Disturbed rises to his feet and waits for stripes to stand up. Disturbed looks like he is going to give stripes a clothesline. Disturbed lines up and runs at Stripes but Stripes ducks it and Disturbed bounces off the side of the ring and back into Stripes knuckle. The hard shot sends Disturbed crashing hard onto the canvas. Stripes goes for the cover. 1… but Disturbed kicks up quickly. Disturbed raises to his feet when Stripes German Suplex’s Disturbed. Disturbed rises, only to be slammed back down by yet another German Suplex. Stripes goes for another cover 1…2… Disturbed reaches and grabs the rope. When they rise disturbed drop kick’s Jonny to the group. Disturbed then starts kicking Stripes in the ribs. Disturbed stops and looks over at the top of the turnbuckle, with a gleam in his eye. He climbs the turn buckle and goes for a flying elbow, only to land on the hard canvas as Jonny rolls out of the way. Tom C – OUCH! He won’t be getting up too quickly after that one Stripes stands up and picks up the groggy Disturbed. Jonny goes for a Power bomb. He lifts Disturbed high above his head, and slams him down. Stripes then climbs to the top of the turn buckle. Tom C – Oh No, Disturbed is in trouble now! Jonny gives the finger to the crowd, and jumps off the turnbuckle, driving his head down hard into Disturbed’s mid-section. Jonny stands up, laughing at Disturbed and taunting him. Disturbed slowly begins to rise, without Jonny noticing. Disturbed stands behind Jonny, and as Jonny slowly turns around a look of shock comes across his face. Disturbed quickly lifts Stripes up and gives him a powerful spine buster. Tom C – Ouch, Stripes has been hit hard – Disturbed is beginning to make a come back! Stripes rises quickly and just as Jonny thinks he has caught Disturbed at a vulnerable moment, Disturbed lifts Jonny over his shoulders and gives him a huge Dizzy bomb. Tom C – This could be it for Jonny Stripes! Disturbed looks down at Jonny, and then at the ref, and begins to laugh. Tom C- Why is Disturbed stalling like that, he should be going for the pin! Disturbed turns back to Stripes and lifts him up again, going for another Dizzy bomb. Jonny quickly straightens up and hits disturbed in the head three times, forcing Disturbed to drop Stripes. As disturbed is holding his head, Stripes kicks him in the gut, forcing disturbed to bend over. Jonny lines Disturbed up and applies a bone rattling sit-down powerbomb! Tom C – Oh no, here comes the pin Jonny quickly covers Disturbed! 1..2….3! Disturbed kicks up just after the 3 count, but it is too late. Jonny is standing above Disturbed, his hands raised high. Ring announcer – Here is your winner Jonny Stripes! Jonny quickly grabs his arm away from the ref and starts taunting the dazed Disturbed. Jonny slowly makes his way back up the ramp, laughing and swearing at various crowd members as they continue too boo him off.

[Matt Hare]

I vote for......Number 1

[Jonny Stripes]

For what it is worth, I will give my opinion on all 3 of you...I don't know if I want any of you as co-owner from those interviews...hopefully whoever gets it will do better as time goes on...anyway, here is my opinions on your applications:

Wrestler 1

QUESTION 1: Ok, so you have a passion for DUEW? Thats great...how about an answer that isn't so general? There must be a real reason you want it...You think everyone here is great? Well as co-owner I can tell you, everyone will be no trouble for you...unless you are Matt or Bret...

QUESTION 2: Has been here for a long time? That is one of the major things that will curve my vote to a yes for you...more entertaining? You better hope so cos the last 3 months have been quite entertaining from my end of the spectrum and I want that to continue

ROLEPLAYING: I wish I could see all of the rps that have been done but then it would give away the style and we would know who it was...so instead I will just go off what Damo told us...For me, storyline is something that is done through sustained rping, so unless you used a current story that has been going then I don't see how a storyline came across...if Damo means the plot of the roleplay and thinks it is good, then I am inclined to go with his view...sounds like you did well...some bad bits? meh, all our rps have good and bad bits

CARD: Wow, these cards were awfully disappointing...first off, we have a Deathmatch contender in Bret...I don't know how in the world Damo thought you had strong knowledge of current events...for me, you must know every character inside out and the fact you put Joey in a Deathmatch situation shows me that you don't know the characters...The world title match...well thats fair enough cos you didn't know if Nicho was in or not before this week...the Luda special ref was a great touch, nice thinking there...One thing that I hate that you have done with a few guys is double booking them in matches...our roster is big wenough to not have to do that...Nicho in two title matches...Joey in two matches...The tag match is mildly interesting and could be expanded upon...thats a plus...the first match, bit of a nothing match but its good because 4 ways are always exciting...i like that you didn't have too many gimmick matches...not a bad job here

MATCH: "Jonnys Music" poor man poor...it was pretty well worked, maybe a bit more of what you had at the start...I don't like how Jonny gets clotheslined and the next thing you right is Nicho getting suplexed...Nice finish...not a bad match really

Wrestler 2

QUESTION 1: "Brings things we don't have"...then you don't mention any? Thats not promising...as for the love of wrestling, well that should be expected

QUESTION 2: You read new posts three times? Yeah, ok...I guess you didn't read the ADDU2 results three times cos Jimmy left and forfeited the world title...This is a blatant lie because if it was true, you would have read 3 times that four people in the last month have all been rping with the aim to beat each other for the title...Btw, you can't force your "better storylines" on people and especially not me

ROLEPLAYING: Sounds almost on par with Wrestler 1...again, you claim to read new posts three times but you misjudge characters...I read posts once and I don't misjudge characters, in fact I pride myself on knowing the characters very well...as for the Howard feud, well at least you included it in there

CARD: I do not like this card very much at all...There are a lot of problems with it...First off, you have a lot of people in there that don't deserve title shots...The Beer Drinkers lost 3 weeks in a row to the same people...they gotta win a few before getting another shot...Luda lost all 3 of his tournament matches...he doesn't deserve a shot either...Animal just came back and won a match...thats no reason for a title shot...Lover just came off a 2 month feud with Nicho which he lost both title matches...again, undeserving at this moment...Also, it is not really that great to have the tag titles defended twice in a row...I don't even want to begin on the poor job you have done with the World Title...its self evident what is wrong here

MATCH: There was one line from the commentators, it looked messy and had no paragraphs...it made me not want to read it and thats not cool

Wrestler 3

QUESTION 1: This answer is miniscule...but it is the best of them all without question...you are the only one who recognises it will indeed be a hard thing to do to run the place...you also see that it will be fun...as a co-owner here I felt exactly the same things...this is a great answer!

QUESTION 2: I like these answers too...he says what he intends to do...make it more fun, make us have better competition, which means better rping and wants the roster to grow...again, this is the best of the three

ROLEPLAYING: Look, you weren't asked to make an epic rp, were you? 1200 words is about average for mine (I think... ) and so what if it isn't great? This is not reflected in other parts of your application and that can be fixed

CARD: That card is...CRAP...the worst of the lot, which is a shame...again, so many people who don't deserve a title shot...Pyro hasn't rped for two weeks...Bret has yet to prove himself with a big title...Deranged is really new...Shadow has left...And yet you leave out the people who do deserve a shot at the title...Tut tut...this is very weak indeed

MATCH: By far the best match but you spent longer on it than you were meant to...you got a lot of details right in there and the entrances were spot on...you may not have been up to date with recent happenings on the card...but you know Jonnys new theme song...thats awesome!

Overall: On a ranking basis, I would say that it would be
WRESTLER 3
WRESTLER 1
WRESTLER 2

That is in order from best to worst...but none of you are perfect for the job

Worst thing about No.1 was his card
Best thing was his Match

Worst about No.2 was almost everything...the card was by far out there as the worst
Best bit was probably the description of his roleplay

Worst about No.3 was the card
Best was his answers to the top two questions

In any case, good luck to whoever gets the position...my pick goes to Number 3

[Disturbed]

Okay, now that I have seen those things, i rekon i can make my deision. Firstly - CONTENDER 1:
"Thinks everyone here is great" - I guess this is good, but it must be almost impossible, as practically everyone is bickering with someone on the forums at the moment, but who knows...


"has a pation, has been here for a long time (this is true). Has good wrestling knowledge, and good ideas which would make it more entertaining"

This may be true - but it is his opinion, and obviously he isnt going to say his ideas will be crap. Past knowledge does help, but at the moment means little.

I thought his card was ok, but continuous "random" cards like that wouldnt work.

His match was entertaining, and I do agree that the finish was good.

CONTENDER 2:


I must say it's easy to say you can bring new things to DUEW, but if you don't mention anything thats hard to judge. For example, his idea could be to have all the wrestlers hit a pinyata (spl?) and who ever kocks it down becomes world champ. - yes this is new, but not a great idea.

Reads over new posts 3 times a day - I didnt know if this was supposed to be interpreted as he reads the same new posts 3 times, or if he looks at the site 3 times a day, but I'm guessing the second. This is good, but is it really necessary? When it comes to judging, they may only briefly scan over each post as tehy believe they kno the content, but chances are they missed sumthing...

Card was odd - WTF was Jimmy doing there - oh well.

I thought the match was a little short, and some of the spelling and sentence structure was a little odd, but that doesnt really matter i spose.


CONTENDER 3:


Now it seems that you gave this guy the harshest review of the lot. Anyway - ill get to that later


"it would be fun and hard. he want it"

He is the first to actually admit that it would be quite a challange, and says that it will be fun, which he may regret saying. The workload could be too much, but who knows. And obviously all three want it.

Bring more people is always a good aim - being a co-owner isnt simply writing and judging matches, it includes updating the site, making decisions, and recruitment would be a really good aim. I like this point!

The card is a little odd, but Damo looking at your most recent card, it too doesnt look like u kno of current events. This card could be tgoing sumwhere?

I also thought his match was one of the better ones. But i guess if he went over the time limit it is a problem, especially as every1 here likes results on time.


I know i was very harsh, but that was the idea. Looking at that info, I'd go with number 3, despite his review, but number 1 would be a close runner up.

[Disturbed]

lol i posted at almost the same time as u jonny - and without reading what jonny had to write we both picked similar things. Very interesting - the previosu co-owner and the apparant "most loyal" wrestler both voted the same - see what i mean, posting a card and match does make a difference. Lol

[Jonny Stripes]

It damn well did man

If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have picked number 3

Damo, you gave him a shitty review...that wasn't fair at all...This guy is the most clued in for sure

[Damien Porter]

i wasn't harsh on no 3

i said the card was crap which it is

i prasied the results, but they should be concidering he spent twice as long on it

[Joseph Malone]

You also said the rp was average plus the wording in the question 1 bit makes him seem to be a complete dunce...it will be fun and hard

[Mr. Lover]

Wrestler 2!

First I wanted to say wrestler 1 but I chosed W2.

They both have great ideas but W2 got better role play review and fast action in the match. The match is shorter and I like them like that! I won't have to read like an hour for one match.

[Joseph Malone]

Ok Damo, it seems harsh

But after you explain it to me yourself, it is ok

I think I gave him a good enough write up as it is

[Pyro]

Ok. This is a hard decision as these guys doesn't seem to be the best choice and no one of them isn't even close to perfect but Jonny wasn't a pure perfection himself... Actually there are no perfect things in life!

As for these guys... Well... I'll go for W2! They all seem weak but...

has good ideas, can bring things that we don't have

...that sounds promising. I want to see what we don't have!

[Disturbed]

Well the true test of being a good co-owner will be if he isnt biased towards to all those who voted for him. I'm sure no one will be though - just something to keep in mind.

[Damien Porter]
