Oh, by the way, I'm working on bios this week. If you want to make any changes to what exists right now for the text, PM me and I'll get it adjusted for you, hopefully by the end of the week (depending on how busy work is). Right now I've got to add -Jeffrey the Jew -Steel Chair -New Zombie Mr. Fantastic -New Axl/Viruz bios So this is a great time to get your stuff updated. It may be another six years til the next update. Also, need to get a Poser pic for Kobe and Jeffrey for the Roster pages.

Progress: Zombie Mr. F bio is up ("Zombie" by Cranberries wasn't the entrance music? I'm shocked! Or maybe nobody remembers that song and I'm getting very old. ) Angelina X bio is up Axl bio up Viruz bio up I'm burnt for the night, so I'll work more on the bio section tomorrow.

Ah, the Cranberries. I have their "Stars" Best Of album, with some of the best songs I remember from a few years back. Stuff like that brings back memories. - MB

Steel Chair and Jeffrey bios finally posted.
Still waiting on Chingachgook bio, then I should be all caught up (then onto adding the bio pix on the bio pages).

Hey, John, have you had any time to respond to the two pm's I sent in? Some of the questions don't require an answer, but some of the others I would like to know what you think. Even if you can just let me know something here, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
- Shane

I'll add your bio stuff as soon as I can.
RE: booking your angle, just worry about RPing. I'm nowhere near writing for Running on Empty yet, so I also need to worry about Ranting.
RE: song parodies...sources (my magic 8 Ball) say no.

Was my last rant any better than what I've been putting out recently?

Also, do you still have the link to the game I made? And if so, are you going to be able to test it out and let me know what you think? I know... I'm annoying. But I just have a bunch of stuff in my head, and when I have something to ask, I just ask it. And I know I do a bunch of other annoying stuff, but I honestly don't mean to be. I'm about to send you an angle which will lead up to MegaBrawl, and what I want to do starting with the new year. Once that's settled, I think I'll be able to focus better, and try to stop talking ooc.

Your last rant was pretty good. Too dirty apparently for Google ads. It made the ads linking to your page go all PSA or blank (at least on my comp, did anybody else have this happen?). Very odd. Yours, Studs and Kobe's most recent one were all too dirty for AdWords, I guess. I'm sure I lost that game link. Though I have 108 PMs stored up. It could be there. I need to clean out a bit. And just one final note on your other note. You'll probably do a lot better here (as far as titles/card spot) if you let things happen. You can suggest away on angles if you like, but less planning is better. I'd say 90 percent of the time, the angles you suggest never come to fruition. Save yourself time and keep any ideas big picture. I make no promises of week to week or show to show planning because I've got about 20-30 characters to mix and match around. BOB doesn't have to make sense and be planned out. Disorganization out of chaos is the law.

www.angelfire.com/wizard2/monkey1/Super_Mario_Whatever.zipYup, did the same thing to me. I guess Axl's little scavenger hunt to find the missing hot pocket was too "risque" for Google. :-P So, you really liked it? Would you say that's the direction I need to take? Because I was sorta thinking of dumping Axl and having my AWE Jack Hoff character make a comeback. He's a crazy guy, that might fit in better with BoB. But whatever you think is best... I'll send in the angle, and you can let me know what you think. - MB

Hey, sorry about what I said earlier. Didn't mean to offend, I just think you talk too much about trying to fit in with BOB when it's the very thing that makes you stick out like a sore thumb. Your last rant was a lot better and you should definitely stick with Axl.
Anyway, this thread is supposed to be about bios. I noticed in the 'past roster' that Mr. Fantastic is there. I guess if "Zombie" Mr. Fantastic is just a guy in a rubber suit it makes sense but I thought that was a little strange seeing as it was just supposed to be a gimmick change.
P.S. I'll make a bio pic for Chingachgook sometime soon.

I'll make a bio pic for Chingachgook sometime soon. I left Mr. Fantastic on the past roster mainly because I love those bio pics of him. I'm planning to link from Mr. Fantastic's old bio to Zombie Mr. Fantastic's bio with a one liner or something saying, "Mr. Fantastic died at at Power is Stolen and became Zombie Mr. F (and link to the new bio). If you'd rather I don't link to it there, it's not a worry, I can take it off. Let me know what you prefer. Cheers, -Leary

Develop those characters into entertaining characters and stop trying to constantly change to "fit in" here. We're the land of misfits. We don't fit in anywhere else. And I keep saying this, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me worry about booking your matches (after all, I DO run this place). Just rant for them, and you'll be fine.

Alright... I guess I'll use Jack as the owner of the UnFed I told you about. I'll probably stop ranting for Pigeon after his feud with the Hierarchy. I'll try to make Axl and Vi entertaining, though it'll be pretty hard...
