Black Majik

I highly approve of the Grass. And I like the fire more than I thought I would, mostly because it's an Aardvark rather than a pig. That water though. x:

The bold has made this a first day buy for me.

Also refering to the silhouettes, is that Rorschach just to the left of Crossbones? Out of all the silhouettes it sticks out the most as familiar, I didn't even recognize Ultimo Breakfest till you just posted about him there.

Yep. From Left to Right: Worker Ant; Private Eye; Sumie Sakai, USApe, Mister Zero; Blind Rage; Lance Steel and Jervis Cottonbelly. Also Crossbones in the background.

^ Ink Inc. actually. Thanks Bill (Y)

Looks like it won't be a regular wrestling game then. I kinda got a Beat'Em Up vibe from it... well I actually thought it was a great promo when I first saw the vid till I saw the ending. I don't actually care though since I marked out when I found out about it, and I'll end up getting it no matter what genre or if its good or bad since it's a CHIKARA Video Game.

Short and simple, yes. Still, if major grinding is needed to get me to enjoy my unplayed Pokémon games, well thats what I'm going to do dammit.

I tried it on Ruby. My team got murdered by Brawly. Now I'm trying it out in Fire Red. Doing well, beat Erika and only one death so far (My Nidorino. Damn critical hits. ). It's great fun.

Ophidian broke his arm after they kicked Escorpion out.

Slightly edited the list to leave who I know there. I'll try and find pictures and stuff, but yeah, those guys I know exist and should be left in.

Couple of small notes on a few guys stats: Zack Sabre Jr. should have an 81 in Technical. He is fantastic in the aspect, one of the finer tech wrestlers in the world currently and anything lower than that would be major underated. His speed could use a bump to 68 and Brawl to 35. Drew Gulak could also use a tech boost, to around 72. Also, if you haven't already, make him the CZW Wired Champion. Adam Cole's speed should be around 60, and Tech somewhere between 68 and 72, I'll go with 70 as the happy medium. Ryan Taylor stats are terrible, when he is a fantastic worker. Make his speed 64 and his tech 69. And brawl to 30. I'd rate him higher, but anything would be better than the 19-48-38 he's got now. Finally in the stats department, Rich Swann's speed should be around 73. And three notes related to Tursas: Tursas's finisher should be Ragnarok, Impact. Tursas's alter ego is wrong. He wasn't called Klondike, it was Klondike Kremlin. So... change that. Also (and my last note), add an inactive tag team made up of Tursas and Frightmare, called Frightmare and Kremlin. 3EXP.

1 - Captain America? 2 - Dr. Doom, maybe Ultimate Thor 3 - DEADPOOL <3 4 - Hawkeye? 5 - No clue. Would have said Magneto, but those shoulder pads tell me no. 1 - FELICIA <3 2 - Frank West 3 - C. Viper? Maybe... that girl from RE5. Forgot her name. 4 - Chun Li 5 - Albert Wesker? Maybe Dante. Add those to the six confirmed (Hulk, Wolverine, Morrigan, Ryu, Ironman and Chris Redfield), plus 14+ to go (apparently there is going to be around 30 characters), and the game looks like it will kick some major ass. Deadpool alone has me sold, he was the one character I wanted in more than anybody else.

The ones quoted are names I recognize and should probably be kept in the game. Bolded SHOULD to be kept in (except, possibly Leyla, I'm just bolding her due to the fact she was in Wrestlicious as the co-host for a while), the rest give or take. Can't say anything on anybody I didn't list though.

You missed some of the people off the list you vouched for there, like Dino, Dragonfly and DJ Skittlez. The only other name from the list I recognize that hasn't been vouched for is Raj Ghosh, who I guess should be kept in as well. The rest on there should probably be removed from the game unless somebody says they should remain. I'd remove him from HWA if he isn't holding their title, and if he is, then DG:USA.

Some people would, just for the challenge of getting a guy with zero in every stat over. Having said that, though, if it's close to the limit that's been put for stats updates of 5000 [though I personally think, if the game can support 12000, why bother with a 5000 limit, really?], then it is time to start thinking of people to eliminate. As just a beginning list of possible 'chopping block' workers, the first to go should be non-wrestlers, the lower overness the better for the list [under the assumption the really low-over people who are non-wrestler/'retired' would be the most likely to not be needed.] With that in mind, the list of people who follow these rules [Non-Wrestler, 5 overness and under, not employed by a promotion at beginning of game] looks like: Moving the cutoff to 10 [same qualifications- Non-Wrestler, Free agents], you add: AJ Sparkx Anthony Franco Bino Gambino BPA Barry Brandon Hill Brian the Guppy Christine LeMaster Destiny Dino Winwood DJ Skittlez Dr. Hurtz Dragonfly Duke Durrango Eric Xtreme Fireangel Frank Cullen Fuyuki Takahashi Gina Marie Hikaru Ice Cold Jacklyn Hyde Jane Blond Jimmy Turner John Howarth Jolly Roger KC Blade Mack Johnson Mad Mike Matthias Treu Mike Sato Mister Saint Laurent Raj Ghosh Rob Dimension Rush Margera Ruy Batello Shinsuke Z Yamagasa Takashi Uwano Tatsushi Yamaguchi The Disciplinarian Tommy Combat Tommy Knoxville From that list, is there anyone who should be kept from it, or should these on the list be first to go? Alexa Thatcher, Dino Winwood, Melissa Stripes and Mister Saint Laurent should definitely be kept in the game. I would keep DJ Skittles, Dragonfly, Jacklyn Hyde, Jane Blond, Jolly Roger, Mack Johnson, Private Eye, Tara Bush and The Disciplinarian possibly in the game. Most of the others are either retired or bit players. I'd also keep Rush, Duke, Bino, Franco and Lupin. For the rest, I'm not sure of. Also, just a quick question, who IS Keichii Ooba? Worst stats asides from 0-0-0-0 guy, he's free and I've never heard of him, ever. Google and wrestling sites don't have anything on him either. Always sign him in my games, but yeah, is he even real? If you (or somebody else) make stats for him, I don't see why he shouldn't be added to the game. I've never seen him before, so I can't help with the stats, sorry.

Not really, considering they're both set to exactly the same and basically a clone of each other as is. Plus, Nick/Jeremy's better at flipping and Matt/Max can work a match more. Even if it's just by a little in both aspects. So yeah, some small change should be needed, at least. Also, on the note of Otunga's finishers, shouldn't his first be set as the Verdict and the secondary be the Uranage? Since I'm pretty sure he does the Uranage in FCW as well as the Spinebuster.

To quote Jim Ross, he is TRULY bowling shoe ugly. His stuff in the indies and in FCW have been great though, and I thought, for what he's had, he's done fine on NXT. Completely disagree on the decrease, but if you don't want the increase, that's fine, I guess, since his current stats work. I really don't think what I've seen warrents even his current stats for technical. Having the 51 as is, means he's moderately proficient which he isn't. He's decent-to-good at brawling but that's all. Other than that he is a sloppy worker. Perhaps putting him at 60/14/37 would be a good enough compromise? 64 Brawl and its a deal. Final notes from me now; all on finishers. Should be changed: Luke Gallows' primary finisher should be 'Gallows Pole' - Impact. Zack Ryder's secondary finisher should be 'Rough Ryder' - Impact. Santino Marella's finisher should be 'Cobra Strike' - Impact. May need changing: What is Primo's finisher? It certainly isn't the Cannonball Twister or Doggy Destroyer anymore, but I can't remember what the heck he does actually use. Maybe Backstabber x2? Wade Barrett's finisher should be Firemans Carry Slam, maybe? Not sure if it has a name, but yeah. Impact for that. I believe he does a Spinebuster in FCW as well, so that should be his secondary. Impact also. Last time I watched, William Regal did that Running Knee Strike as his finisher, rather than a T Bone. Haven't been keeping up with him though, but yeah, possibly change? Other: Vladimir Kozlov looks to be heel again.

To quote Jim Ross, he is TRULY bowling shoe ugly. His stuff in the indies and in FCW have been great though, and I thought, for what he's had, he's done fine on NXT. Completely disagree on the decrease, but if you don't want the increase, that's fine, I guess, since his current stats work. Replies in the quote and whatnot. Also, while I'm here, lower Max Buck and Jeremy Buck's wages to $14,000. And do the following stat changes: Max's speed down to 82 Max's tech up to 70 Jeremy's brawl down to 22 Jeremy's tech down to 61 Lower both of their charisma's to 55. Just to make them... different, from each other. Since they currently have exactly the same stats. Also, lower Malachi Jackson's brawl to 19, his Speed to 62 and his Tech to 28. He's green and he can only really flip about. I'm sure he'll get better, but for now, yeah.

Leaving the name/short names and stuff of, since I'm pretty sure you can do those yourself. All American, Male, Lightweight and can Speak. Johnny Gargano: Matt Jackson Nick Jackson Generation Me: 53EXP More Bang For Your Buck

Couple of notes: Christian Faith has retired due to a neck injury, doesn't know if or when he'll be back, so safe to say make him a non-worker for now. Vincent Nothing has also mysteriously vanished, it looks like he is done as well, so possibly set him as a Non Wrestler as well. Flip Kendrick should have around 86 in Speed. The man is on par with Jack Evans when it comes to flips, and since Evans is at 87, yeah. Also possible bump his wage up to $10,000 so he's not too cheap of an awesome worker. He should also have High Spots ticked. And his secondary finisher should be Tornado DDT. Soldier Ant's finishers should be TKO (Impact) and Diving Saluting Headbutt (Top Rope). Lower his speed by to around 67 and up his tech to around 62. Green Ant's finishers should be Cloverleaf (Submission) and Big Splash (Ground). Up his selling to around 72 and his Speed to around 65 (although with him at 63 at the moment, that would just be me nitpicking). I believe Worker Ant's finisher was Workers Strike (Impact). Somebody will have to confirm that for me though. Make Dieter VonSteigerwalt a Non-Wrestler in CHIKARA. Increase Hailey Hatreds Brawl, Speed and Tech by seven each. She's getting better by the match, and yeah, currently her stats are too low. Forgot to mention before, when you add J. Miller into the game, add a friendship between him and Tommy Tydie/Treznik and another one with The Wreckingball. For the Naptown Dragons stable; add the tag teams "Naptown Dragons III" with Scotty Vortekz and Drake Younger, 5 EXP and "Naptown Dragons IV" with Scotty Vortekz and xOMGx, 5 EXP, make it inactive though. Also add Eddie Kingston and Drake Younger as a tag team, with 2 EXP. Speaking of xOMGx, remove him from all his companies for now, as he's taking a temp hiatus from wrestling. He's unmasked and renamed himself Kyle Threat, make him a Tweener and a Legitimate Athlete. I'll try and get some stats up for Cameron Skyy, Tyler Elkins, Dragon Kreed, Khameleon, Jack Night, Dave Manzo, Marty Epps, Blue Ranger, GQ Assassin, Rave Killbourn and Danny Danger later. I know the worker limit is getting close, but they're all active in the indies (except possibly Khameleon and Epps, who may be done. Still, they've wrestled recently and may be back soon, unlike, say, Maree-O and Louie-G, who haven't been heard of since 2004, and even then they where only around for like... six events I think). EDIT: To the person above, I agree some of the NXT Rookies need a stat change. Here's what I would do, I'm no good at making stats either though. Wade Barrett: Brawl to 70, Tech to 62, Charisma to 72. Tick Superstar Look and Shooting Ability. Darren Young: Untick Superstar Look, Decrease Brawl to 64, Tech Increase to 56. Heath Slater: Increase Speed to 71. Untick Superstar Look. Maybe Lower Charisma to 65. David Otunga: Brawl to 66, Speed to 26, Tech to 27. Charisma to 73. Michael Tarver: Brawl to 72. The rest are fine.

*Rename Tommy Tydie to Tommy Treznik *Moohammed the Terrorist Cow is Rahim Ali. Not sure if you should change him into Rahim Ali, but you should at least add it to his alter egos. EDIT: Said the name wrong, sorry. It's just Rahim Ali, but Prince of Persia is his nickname, so possibly add that to his alter egos as well? *Add J. Miller to the game: *Add a Tag Team between Tommy Treznik and J. Miller called "The H3RD", Exp 20. *Not sure if it's been brought up or not, but Orlando Jordan as "cocky"... doesn't exactly fit him being the crazy gimmick he's got now. I'd give him Weirdo, personally.

Quick question, what promotions did you remove from it for NXT, FCW and SD? Thanks regardless. Going to try it now.

http://theburninghammer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=25877 And yeah, I'd probably rename the team BDK. They where Swi$$ Money Holding for years, but recently they've only been called BDK, so yeah.

Apparently he's coming back in May. He's booked to face Greg Excellent in... some company. The one Ruckus owns. RCW maybe. Already in as Swi$ Money Holding. He gets called DieHard in other companies though... not sure if it should be changed or not. Eddie Kingston is fantastic on the mic. He deserves the 87. 85 lowest, at least. Asides from that, you managed to get most of the stuff bang on. I'd say Layla would be more of a sidekick tbh. She's not exactly a nameless lackey who follows and does what McCool says aimlessly, she's her friend and backs her up.
