Main Event: James vs. Josh Drakmen
Winner: Josh Drakmen for obvious reasons. James didn't rp but I know why....so yeah
Match Six: Midnight vs. Phoenix Winterborn
creativity: Not alot of creativity flowing out of either one of these two, I am going to have to go with Middy just because she split up her talking with some action, so it wasn't like somebody sitting somewhere and just talking for seventy minutes.
RP flow: I enjoyed reading Phoenix's roleplays more, Midnight seemed to ramble on or involve Rayvn, which got kind of old.
appearance: Both had good layouts, clean and precise. I could go either way on them, the colors didn't bother my eyes. I am leaning towards Phoenix, just because he used colors well. I know midnight said that she didn't have time to change the color codes on the last rp, but come on, I can't read a roleplay that is all white. Far too boring.
attention to details: One critique that I have for Phoenix, is split up the text of your character talking, do something, pace from side to side or something. If I have to go and read a roleplay that is all or 99 percent talking text, I get bored and just skim it. I am going to have to give this section to midnight
countering: Midnight countered Phoenix's insults well
consideration for deadlines: Not an issue.
use of SLs: I don't completely understand what is going on here. I mean sometimes Phoenix and Midnight are friends and in a stable, I blink and now they are feuding? I am so confused, it seems like their storylines jump around like a kid with adhd that refuses to take ridalin. Maybe it is some crazy vampire shit that I am not privvy to.
Winner: I am going to have to give the nod to Midnight, just barely. Phoenix is improving, and I hope that he continues and really breaks out for his ppv match against rayvn. Just split up the verbal part of your promos with some actions, nobody can sit still and talk for that long.
Match Five: Roach vs. Lilianna Baxter
Winner: ???? Apparently Andrew was taking care of this. Or so he told me...
Match Four: Akmed vs. Ideas Monrew vs. Wesley Ray
creativity: Nothing too exciting here, Wesley did a bit more that wasn't involved in cutting promos in the ring.
RP flow: I have talked about this before, having a roleplay done in first person mode never turns out very good. It is nothing against anyone personally, but for some reason it always turns out really crappy or boring.
appearance: I don't really like Wesley's banner, time for a change, I will have to give it to Ideas here, just because the poop brown layout that Wesley uses isn't really appealing. Unless you like poop.
attention to details: I didn't really see anything too detailed here.
countering: Ug, neither really countered each other. It seems as if they didn't read the other's rp. I don't like that, it makes for bad storylines.
consideration for deadlines: Not an issue
use of SLs: What storyline
Winner: This match wasn't very exciting to me. I mean these two could be really good, but they need a bit of practice. What I do before I roleplay is listen to really angry songs, it puts me in a fighting mood. I am going to give this match to Wesley, just for the simple fact that his roleplays were a little bit more put together. His roleplay with him and his father could have been really good if he had put real thought and effort into it.
Match Three: Roarke Kavanagh vs. SVD
Winner: Roarke because SVD didn't show. Shame really.
Match Two: Faith Rivers vs. Jade
creativity:
Winner: Faith Rivers, because Jade didn't show.....
Match One: L.A. Paramanov vs Jessica Stryker
creativity: I didn't see too much creativity from either of you guys. Just cutting promos, one in a hotel, the other I think at the arena. I would like to see different promos from people, I am not saying that you have to go to a graveyard and dig for bodies like the dark carnival does but there are better things to do than walk around the arena or in a hotel room.
RP flow: I am always a fan of what Amber puts out, something is very compelling about it. I am going to give it to her in this section.
appearance: I don't like the bright colors that jessica used, they hurt my eyes. I don't know if it is because I have a cold but the yellow and greens hurt my eyes. I liked the softer tones that LA Amber used. Bright colors are fun but they can be hard to read when you are reading long roleplays. It takes a toll on the eyes.
attention to details: There wasn't too much detail in either opponents roleplay. Jess threw more insults at her opponent and it seems like she put more time and thought into this match.
countering: Jessica countered her opponent well, she had a comeback for everything that LA threw out at her.
consideration for deadlines: Not an issue for either one.
use of SLs: Not much of a storyline, just new talent developing, much like elementary school insults. Jess put more into this match so I am going to have to give her this one.
Winner: Jessica Stryker. Not by much, Amber is deadly when she puts her mind to it, I don't know if she wasn't into this match or just didn't have the time. It just seems like she didn't put much thought into this match. When she puts forth the effort, she is really, really good. Jessica wins this round, but watch out for Amber, she is like a ninja, silent and deadly.
