Serious Parody

What the fuck. Half those people are shittily sidestepped names while the other half are literally just a guy's real name and ring name switched up. And how the fuck is "The Leprechaun" not a ripoff? The only difference between that thing and Hornswoggle is that Hornswoggle's not explicitly referred to as a leprechaun anymore. EDIT: Also, I'm 99% sure that the "Iron Man Match" card has Shawn Michaels' face completely unchanged with the exception of the terrible Super Saiyan haircut. Yeah, Hornswoggle, the only leprechaun that's ever existed EVER!!!

*Crackles Knuckles, Clears Throat* Oh boy, this is going to be a gas. But you didn't know that we'd like it. First, the only heads up we had was a post you made three months ago saying that the game was coming. Well, okay, fair enough. You were actually doing something right with the marketing, by asking a potential audience what they'd think about it. However, judging that you 'knew' that we would like it is one hundred percent bullshit. All we saw of this fucking game was nothing but pictures that were total ripoffs of current WWE and TNA talent, as well as people no longer associated with the business. Your "Developer's Blog", if you could even call it that (Oh yeah guys, Serious Parody has a blog), has a grand total of two updates, one of which started in August of this year, incidentally when you started whoring this game onto the internet, and one two months later. Wow, way to keep that fanbase informed, champ. Second, you don't give us, the CONSUMERS, the option of a demo or a beta, and you simply say "BUY THE GAME TO SEE IF YOU LIKE IT ". Well fuck that. I will grant that there are times in life where you really don't know what you're getting; going to a new restaurant, a movie you don't know much about, however, there are other times when you do have the option of seeing what you're getting into. This is why there are such things as test drives and refunds. One of your programming contemporaries, Activision-Blizzard, realized that people might want to try something out before they commit the cash, so they give out a trial period. Adam Ryland does it. He's even letting people play Comic Book Hero, and if you want to have a fucking prayer in that game you have to pay for it. But you... You have no sense of the law at all, no sense of customer relations. We've had someone asking you repeatedly about a problem in the game, and yet you refused to address it all, establishing that you're just some loser wanna be programmer that's made a really shitty game that he's totally blind to, and I will say it's shitty because even your ardent defender here in the thread, JukeBoxHero, is talking about bugs. These should not be here when you release a game, and if they are, you had better be working your ass off to patch the shit before you start to lose customers. You review your own fucking game, we is just fucking stupid. You aren't shilling it, you're reviewing it. That's bullshit, man, and it's one of the stupidest ploys that is pulled on the internet. And then there is the matter of your smug fucking attitude. You want to sell this game, but you're being a prick in here? Well fuck you, too. THIS board exists because Adam Ryland is in no way like you. It exists because unlike you, he takes the time to respond to our feedback, on what was a free game at the time. I remember after EWR 1.4 he started taking ideas for 2.0. "What can be improved?" "Well, the Tag Teams..." "Okay, I'm on it!" . And viola, the fan base rejoiced. The EW series went through how many versions before he had a marketable product? So in conclusion, Serious Parody, let me just say, on behalf of every member of EWB, and every human being that's played EWR or TEW, excluding JukeBoxHero, of course: Fuck off. Don't boo me, you should be booing yourself!

The thing that makes me laugh about this that you guys think you have something over on me here. In reality, you've spent all day talking about a game you don't want to play, that you're not interested in and all the while people have been wondering in the thread because it's crazy popular and buying the game. More over, you think you've found some great revelation that I am the great Dandonian. Well it was ME that told you that. Not the other way around. This isn't one of those times where someone was trying to be sneaky. I linked you to it. Even better than all of that, is the fact that you're never going to play the game. So you've spent a whole day of your life sat talking about a game you'll never even play. So you rate the value of a day of your time at $9.99. On a Saturday too. Now the shame about all of that is, I built a game that I know you guys would like and instead of sitting on here bitching about spending a £6.99, you could done a paper round this morning and bought the game. Then you would have actually known if you like it or not rather than just bitching random nonesense that doesn't matter in the slightest to you. Why would you even remotely care what my legal situation is? From the way you guys talk about piracy, you should be more worried about your own ass. Oh but that's right. It's not that you care about it, it's that you think it winds me up for you talk about it. It doesn't. Because for every post you make about it, there's a chance someone comes across this incredibly popular thread and has a nosey. So troll away and make me money bitches!!! It's a shame we all couldn't just get along.

"Legal" talk from wanna be lawyers is so boring. What's not boring though, is Wrestling Manager Anyone found the Kayfabe Switch yet?

One's me, one's WWEDVDNEWS and I don't know who the others are. I can say that I've had close to 200 emails today from people that all said the game was great. Granted, about 20 of them reported crashes and we totally need to get rid of that but all in all, that's not a bad bit of support from some of the community. The fact that you reviewed your own game shows how fucked up you are. Do we get to +1 our own posts? No. Why? BECAUSE THAT'S NOT HOW IT WORKS YOU IDIOT! Ha, you really think theres an app on the app store that doesn't have the makers own review?

If that's true, then instead of trolling us on here, I'd suggest using your time to personally e-mail all 200 of those people and let them know you appreciate them buying the game, and that the best thing they can do to help out your game is to give it a good rating and write a review for the app store. But you probably won't since a.) there's no way 200 people bought your game already and b.) you're a dick. We always email people.

Why aren't they reviewing it? I think you're lying. Again. Not everybody goes back and reviews it. I wish they would but they don't. I think Angry Birds has less than 10,000 reviews but it's sold more than 10m copies.

No I won't address it.

DID YOU LOOK SERIOUS PARODY BECAUSE I HOPE YOU DID LOOK. DO YOU WANT ME TO POST IT AGAIN BELOW SO YOU ARE CERTAIN YOU LOOKED? WHEN A QUESTION IS ASKED 10 TIMES YOU SHOULD ANSWER IT SERIOUS PARODY. What the fuck is this? I couldn't think how to get his attention Look what you've done Parody! You've made him cry! Shame on you. I like how the original pst is getting a smaller and smaller window every time we quote it. It's so small and cute now

Dance little monkey! Dance little monkey DANCE!!!!!

Woo Woo Woo!! It's been cracked by us donators. We've all got it for free. (Y) Enjoy.

Woo Woo Woo!!

Cool. Good to see you're picking it up. Try to think about how you structure the event, how many matches and promos you should be having and what are your maineventers like stats wise?

You see I use that quite a lot, then just edit the card. So it might be something to do with that. I'll have the team explore what's going on there. Thanks for the feedback.

I've been playing it quite a bit today and haven't really seen any crashes so I wonder what we are doing differently. Do you use the automate button when setting up events? No I have not. I've been going about as normal setting up matches and whatnot and it would crash. It's only happened a couple of times, so I'm not too fussed about it. I think I'm just playing it too fast. Ok, imagine this. Next week, your copy of WWE 12 is in your hands. You put it in your system of choice. You happily play the game until it's time to finish up the match and hit the Rough Rider...the game freezes. You shrug it off. You restart and try again, it freezes. You panic. Each time you try, the same result. Would you be so apologetic then? "Oh, well. It's my fault really. I'll just use the Zack Attack instead. " The crashes are embarrassing, I'm simply trying to find out what people are doing differently that is causing it to crash so that I can get it fixed more efficiently.

What are you trying to say?

It will be a few months after Christmas I think.

I didn't pose, I am a fan, A HUGE FAN and you're damn right I'm excited that it's out. I've spent years working my way into this position and the amount of emails I've had today to tell me how great the game is has been amazing. Granted, I wish there weren't any crashes but we'll get that fixed asap. And I do think it's a crazy idea to release a game at the same time as WWE 12. Especially considering the reviews that's getting.

Point me to a single lie. And I'm not talking about one where you think somethings not true, I'm talking about an actual time where I lied. That everything in the game is 100% original and fictional. That and your IGN thread. Show me a wrestler named Able that looks like Able in any wrestling company in the world. And I didn't lie in the IGN thread I said "What gave me away the signature or the icon" If you look they are Wrestling Manager logos and links. Able's likeness is based on someone else's.. I also like how that is your example and not Rod Van Damn or such. You posed as a loser fan excited that it was finally out. IT'D TAKE A CRAZY SOB TO RELEASE THIS NEAR WWE 12 LOLZ. Name a wrestler who's not being influenced by another wrestler? That's not what makes someone an original character. Sting is an original character, he's based on The Crow. Jack Swagger is an original character but he's essentially a tall kurt angle. Randy Orton is an original character except he's the Viper to Austins Rattle Snake and he's using the RKO which is a Diamond Cutter and he's got a skin head like a million other wrestlers before him. Ric Flair is 100% an original character but The Nature Boy was heavily influenced.

We have all kinds of wrestlers in the game. Midgets wrestlers too. 25 of them I think. So that you can create your own mico wrestling company if you want to. So, you, the lead designer of this game and whatever other title you hold in this company are calling people 'midgets'? Good PR move there. I'm sorry I don't know the political correct term for midgets and I didn't realise it was in any way offensive. Considering you can hire a midget from http://www.hireamidget.com/ and Midget Wrestling has it's own wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midget_professional_wrestling and the god damn BBC reported a store about midget wrestlers getting eaten by lions http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8162991.stm - Tell me again why it's not cool to call midgets, midgets?
