Feedback: Titanomachy

[hurricane]

It's been a hard week and I've got to admit...I almost didn't write. Even though I was absolutely excited about this match for some reason I couldn't just sit down and write my rp. The idea I used was the exact same one I came up as soon as I heard of the match but I just couldn't get it down.

Finally I forced myself to sit down and I'm pretty happy with the final product. I'll leave a challenge for all you readers though. I dare you to try and catch every reference I made...good luck because I lost count myself.

Also I'm gonna be reading and leaving feedback for other people. I always appreciate people leaving feedback for me and I actually enjoy leaving feedback for others but I just haven't been lately but I'm gonna try and get back in the swing of things. I also don't want to just leave a "good job, man" kind of thing.

I enjoyed it, Christian. Very good character interaction. I have been reading every word you have posted since your return and so I thoroughly was into the roleplay. I do not think I caught some of the innuendos you mentioned, but that could be me not being "in the know". If I was to point out something it would be that I didn't get a strong feel of match relevance involved. Don't get me wrong, I did enjoy the "large Russian" bit. That was very funny to be honest.

You just didn't seem to dwell too long on the match or who your opponent was beyond the "He is a monster and he will kill me" thing. Maybe I just took it that way though.

Don't mistake what I say either way. Very nice roleplay. You done good!

See actually I was really torn on this when I was writing. I knew that this match was gonna be tough so I was trying to think about everything that could possibly be my downfall.

What I'm torn on is that if I kinda felt I referenced the match a good portion of the rp. Not in the way of coming out and speaking directly about the match but everything that was happening was happening or having to do with the upcoming match.

I actually cut the final interview alot because I saw that Christian was ranting and calling out Titan that's not what he does...not his character. I knew there were two options with this rp. Either Christian would be terrified about the match or would be so high on his own recent hype that he would be cocky. I decided to go the later and I thought it worked, especially coming off a win with the World Champion last show.

The main reason I went with "He is a monster and he will kill me" stereotype is because right now that's pretty much what Titan is and how everyone views him, at least that's what I get from the show feedback and SNV predictions. I know there's more to Titan but right now that's the perception of him and how I think Christian would view him.

I'm not trying to insult your feedback at all because I thought the same things and wanted to comment on them as well. I think it overall it came together pretty good...was it enough to bring down a Titan...yet to be seen but I had fun with it and that's all that matters.

I greatly appreciate the feedback especially from you because let's be honest if anyone is gonna recognize good work it's gonna be you. Don't worry about the references either. I didn't even go into the rp looking to do a lot of references...well outside of the Rocky IV one with the Russian, they just seemed to pour out every so often. I've got a habit of making some references that no one else could EVER possibly get just because they're for me.

The one that I got a kick out of though was the reference to Titan and the "penis tattoo on his chest." It's not that clever but I actually took the quote from a statement Frank Mir made about Lesnar before their second match in UFC...of course then Lesnar went out and beat him...so maybe that was a bad choice.

lol.. I caught the penis remark instantly. Busted me up to no end! I will review it after the show to not show favoritism.

Looking at it from your perspective, I can definitely see that. Either way, damn good rp.
