Title: "Taking Over the Book" Pre-Season Registration
Post by: Hondo on November 17, 2014, 11:26:27 AM
Hey guys.

I've been in talks with Sam to bring a new game to the new MFX Forums. It's called "Taking Over the Book".

You assume the role of a new hire to the WWE creative team, and each week "Vince McMahon" will come to you with a task to complete each week. Each member of the booking team will come up with a scenario based upon this task. At the end of every week, Vince will choose the scenario he likes best (in other words, it will be put to an open vote) and that person will gain favor with the McMahon family (will receive points in a running score tally).

There's no limit on the number of players who participate. At the end of a season, the winner will be chosen as the new "Head of Creative".

I'm opening up signups prior to the MFX Grand Opening, and if time allows we may play a few pre-season scenarios here on EFK before the game gets its official debut. So if you'd like to join, sign up below.

1. Blade
2. Chris Shields
3. Johnny Rebel
4. TJ
5. Duckman
6. Stoner
7. Drama Queen
8. Mike Powers
9. J "The Hitman" Vo
10. T-Bone
11. Franchise
12. Pancho
13. Krazy
14. Gravedigger
15. Capt. Josh
16. Black Death
17. Alex
18. Kieran King
19. Bungle

Also, I'll post a temporary OOC thread later to give a few more details and rules of the game, as well as a place for you guys to discuss/talk smack/ask questions.

I'd like to, but am still unsure on my internet future.  Haven't been able to raise the funds to pay next bill, so it'll prolly be turned off around the 22-25th.  Combine with computer dead and using my Mom's laptop, my Internet life is just on borrowed time ATM.

It;s gonna be a bit relaxed in terms of setup. If you can't book a week or whatever, it's cool. It's all in the name of fun anyway. So if you wanna take a stab at it, feel free.

There's a slight possibility atm that if I lose the net, I may just not even try to get it back for a long time.  I need to straighten my life out.

It's fine this week, we're just feeling things out.

When the preseason's over and the real season begins, we'll go to a more rigid schedule.
