Zarek vs Jimmy Stryker
Judge 1
I really liked Jimmy's NC stuff but his rp for the match kind of lacked because his NC stuff was interesting for me to read..Zarek put up his normal quality and at first you could tell Jimmy hadn't even checked the results because he didn't even know he had attacked Zarek...I thought Zarek didn't miss a beat with the attack and played it right like you expect your champion to be able to do.. creativity:
Jimmy's NC stuff was more creative to me then really the match stuff by either one RP flow:
Zarek's rps always have a nice flow to them and while I kind of think Jimmy wasn't really into this match his stuff was still decent for the match and his stuff for the NC was really solid appearance:
Ya know for a while I was one of the people on Zarek about his color choices because it did make it very hard for me to read especially being color blind in the first place..He switched up his stuff nicely though and he fixed it which is something I like to see...People sometimes take suggestions as personal attacks and just vow never do anything anyone suggests to them...Jimmy's stuff is usually pretty easy to read and he uses bright colors for his talking usually which helps me out since I have trouble seeing colors anyway
attention to details: They both set their scenes and they gave you a nice rp , not great rps but they were decent reads
countering: Zarek did nice with this and he really picked Jimmy apart about the attack and saying he didn't want to be there for Hangover and yet still doing the match consideration for deadlines:
Not a factor that I could see use of SLs:
Jimmy introduced his sister and Zarek played off the attack that I think Jimmy missed at first...I think Jimmy did a better job of progressing his story along but Zarek really don't have a lot of stories going on besides his thing with Gypsy and that was mentioned. Winner: Zarek Lyle
Judge 2
Creativity: Zareks are the more creative. Jimmy always seems to do the same thing�?whine about the match.
RP Flow: Zareks flow a lot more�?again I feel like I’m reading a novel.
Appearance: I always hated reading yellow tiny lettering. For some reason it gives me a terrible headache.
Attention to details: They both did good�?but since Zarek roleplayed the later of the two his were more so.
Countering: Zarek can sure dish it out, huh?
Consideration for Deadlines: Good.
Use Of SL: Good.
Winner: Zarek Lyle
-Match 6-
Gypsy vs. Cross
(With the decision on the Franchise title yet to come and the impending tag title defense against someone laying ahead Gypsy now must contend with the DOA Mastodon...We honestly don't like to see girls beaten up by monsters, it just sort of happens that way and she likes it...that's the fucked up part.)

-Match 5-
Dante vs. DSL
Judge 1
I didn't seen why he needed the second rp to be honest but it was funny and DSL just really seemed like she was making the case for being his woman and letting him bag her more then I want to win...If fits their story but it made for a boring match and without the puppet show I really believe this would have been a snoozer.
creativity: Dante's puppet show was pretty creative and funny RP flow:
DSL had just one and it was more making the case for Dante then I really felt like she was making a case to being a winner...Dante didn't really seem like he needed the second rp at the time but it was a nice humor piece that did give me a chuckle appearance:
Solid rps with no eye squinting or jumbled up words that made me have to cut and paste their work to word pad just so I could see it.
attention to details: The both set a decent scene but Dante kind of just runs away with a match especially if his opponent just isn't putting in the effort
countering: Wasn't alot to counter that I could see. consideration for deadlines:
I seen no last minute postings ,though I did notice DSL waited until Sunday to get up her rp before the 24 , which is fine but really I like see more then just that last day posting to beat the 24...Of course when you got outside lives and families that don't always work out that way. use of SLs:
Well Dante said I would like to bang you and DSL pretty much said I would like to be banged...They did stick their SL of the heated tension/lust thing so yeah they did do a nice job in that one.
Winner: Dante Cross Judge 2
Creativity: Dante seems more creative and entertaining, though I do throw my hat off to DSL. She’s getting good.
RP Flow: Dante’s flow much better than DSL. I feel like I read a novel�?a strange novel when I read his.
Appearance: I dislike the font used on DSL’s rps�?and the light color with it makes my eyes strain.
Attention to details: Dante gets down to the nitty gritty doesn’t he?
Countering: Then ends up tearing them apart
Consideration for Deadlines: Good.
Use Of SL: Good.
Winner: Dante Cross
-Match 4-
Kit Black vs White Trash
Judge 1
Show stealer match of the evening in my opinion, I enjoyed both ladies rps with Kit's second being her best and WT's first being her best. I think when you factor in both sets though WT's edges Kit's out just slightly in that both of her rps were good and Kit's first one just didn't really grab my attention like a lot of her past stuff has
creativity: Both girls ran away with this one...WT's is funny and Kit is starting to show that she does have a creative side that I hope we see some more of in her future rps RP flow:
They seemed to flow pretty nicely, I didn't have to go back to look them over to see what was being said or having to re-read because they confused me on something appearance:
Nice solid rps by both, WT's page shift still throws me off at times but I guess that is what sets her apart
attention to details: Ehh Kit's first one was lacking a little bit but her second set a really good scene and WT's were nice but the second one kind of felt like it dragged to me some, like she wasn't into the posting but just doing it to be doing it
countering: I think Kit did a little bit better job in this respect but it was a tight match all the way down and I think it shows the stronger female division BUD has developed consideration for deadlines:
Not a factor I didn't think use of SLs:
I'm not sure what either girl's storyline is right now but I think they covered their matches and they covered what was happening around them so I guess if you count that then they both did good. Winner: White Trash
Judge 2
Creativity: Kit Black is beginning to step it up unfortunately it seemed that White Trash might have slammed the door in her face. Trash still seems to row with the creativity. Not only are hers funny and very different that what I’ve been seeing as of late it doesn’t seem to get old.
RP Flow: They both flow well.
Appearance: White Trash’s layouts sorta annoy me�?only because her banner never shows. That’s it though.
Attention to details: White Trash can sure pay attention�?but Kit can too.
Countering: But White Trash can sure pick everyone apart.
Consideration for Deadlines: Fine.
Use Of SL: Good.
Winner: White Trash
-Match 3-
Scott Addams vs Josh Drakmen
Winner: Scott Addams
-Match 2-
Akmed vs Jeffrina Michelle Drakmen
Overall one rp a piece and Jeffie's ran away from Akmed's clearly..
creativity: I wouldn't say either was super creative but Jeffie's had a lot of inclusion of people and also had some SL background there that kind of helped out..Akmed's was just him sitting against a rock... RP flow:
One a piece so you aren't getting the rp to rp flow, but the speaking seemed to go ahead nicely without any halting or either person trying to search for something to say with just a bunch of gibberish appearance:
Neither was hard to read but I would suggest that JMD not use so many darker shades in her talking..Sometimes that gets a little hard on the eyes, but that is just a small critique
attention to details: Ehhh Jeffie was covering her SL stuff and Akmed spoke of his defeat and they both did set their scenes nicely
countering: Jeffie got the counter and she did a nice job with it and really ripped into Akmed beating him down and using his words against him. consideration for deadlines:
Not a factor use of SLs:
Jeffie did a real nice job of incorporating her storyline into her match rp Winner: Jeffrina Michelle Drakmen
Judge 2
Creativity: Akmed’s were all rehashed. Repetitive. I sorta read the same thing in his roleplay against Faith. Jeffrina’s were the more creative of the two.
RP Flow: I don’t know why but when I read Akmed’s rps I end up reading ten times slower�?maybe its because of the tons of filler words. Not sure.
Appearance: Layouts are fine. No distractions.
Attention to details: Doesn’t really seem they paid attention to either of each. But Jeffrina takes it when the more attention.
Countering: Jeffrina did a good job of this. I can tell she was getting her point across.
Consideration for Deadlines: Good.
Use Of SL: No storyline�?
Winner: Jeffrina Michelle Drakmen
- Match 1 -
Faith Rivers vs Kimberly Caine
Overall I just didn't feel like Kimmie had the time for a match and I question whether she is ready to be back full time with her current work schedule and her family..I might be wrong on that but this definitely wasn't up the par of things she can put out. Faith is turning into a solid talent and I think she is moving along nicely towards a future title shot.
creativity:
Wasn't alot of creativity in this one but I did like how Faith's second one opened up and it was something a wee bit different to me so that was a point for her RP flow:
Kim only had the one but I thought Faith's followed a timeline track and you didn't have no huge I'm in Alaska one moment and Mexico the next kind of things so I think the flow was fine and seemed to roll good with the speaking, there was no halting or really vast repeating themselves appearance:
Both rpers were easy to read and told a nice little setting and speaking segments
attention to details: I liked how Faith's first one had her Mom calling her and it gave a little bit of a backstory for her aswell.
countering: Faith was the only one with the chance to counter and I thought she did nicely with it. consideration for deadlines:
I didn't think either was late in their postings so this has no bearing use of SLs
: I guess if you take into consideration Faith gave us a little backstory then yes there was some Sl parts to the promos, but not a whole lot really. Winner: Faith Rivers
Judge 2
Creativity: Faith seems to say the same things with each roleplay she does and it seemed rather refreshing to read Kimberly’s. They seem more well thought on.
RP Flow: They were both good, but I didn’t like the random chit chatting with the parents and then just leaving it off in Faith’s part.
Appearance: They’re both tidy layouts. Not too distracting or anything.
Attention to details: Kimberly takes this�?they had something to say to everything Faith had to say.
Countering: Faith didn’t do so well here. Kimberly just seemed to tear the shit out of her.
Consideration for Deadlines: Good.
Use Of SL: No Storyline
Winner: Kimberly Caine
Judge 3
creativity: Both of Faith's rps opened up with a setting, her first with a backstory and her mom calling for a job well done at the ppv and the second with her fighting the technicians over the tape. Kimberly didn't give much of a setting, it was just a stand there and look tough. Had she had the time, then maybe her second rp would have been much more creative.
RP flow: Faith followed up what Kimberly had ended. As soon as Kim's rp ended and it was headed right for the production truck to be viewed and possibly even edited, Faith was right there to watch it first.
appearance: I really dont care about layouts
attention to details: Faith's second seemed like she was working off of Kimberly's. Countering Details; able to counter an opponent's dialogue rp with your full attention to complete detail in your counter.
countering: Kimber gets this witih the first rp, but Faith slides right in with that second rp. See also Rp flow.
consideration for deadlines: To me it dont matter, you win a match by wanting to win.
use of SLs: Not really.
Winner: Faith Rivers
