Okay, so we were kickin' around the idea of reviving the PHWF. So there's a couple schools of thought. One is to bring it back as a place like we did originally as the ROH to OOWF's TNA when guys were allowed to be in both. The other was to have all new and original characters.

Does anyone want to see this thing around again in either form?

And more importantly, would anyone help me write for it?

[Demko]

For those of us unfamiliar with it, can you provide a link to something that was produced for the PHWF, so that we can look further into it, to see if we'd be interested?

[Lucky]

I suspect you're going to feel silly soon.

Or I missed an inside joke.

[Demko]

I'm always horribly misinformed about things. So I will probably feel silly soon. :-D

Yeah, its tough to find. But I'd imagine that if you search for a couple hours you'll find it on your own. I have faith in you.

[Demko]

Well, considering I reached this thread through the 20 most recent posts feature, and that's how I usually enter threads... sorry I missed the obvious. :-P

[National Champion Chris Cole]

If we do bring it back I'd prefer a new set of characters rather then another place for our original ones.

[The Canadian Content]

I don't see the point. It looks like the choices are 1. Put your existing character into a new Fed in addition to the old Fed or 2. Create a new character for a new and entirely separate Fed.

For the first option, I don't see why characters would exist in both OOWF and PHWF. Just storyline-wise, it doesn't make sense to me.

For the second option, this seems like twice as much writing for everyone when it seems that fewer and fewer people are writing for the original Fed.

Either way, I'm not shitting on the idea, I just don't get the point.

[DevSop]

It's all because they don't want Alexander Darling to have the PHWF World Title as an ornament on his wall after burying the last recognized champ.

[Jack Quinn]

well, to be fair, a sneak attack from behind is not exactly burying him.


Though really, we do really hate you

[DevSop]

Buried...I even gave a eulogy.

MTA: I think it lasted 15 minutes.


PROMO ERIC.

[Fire-Babe]

If we do, can we put it in the old forum over on OO?

[Andy]

No. I don't want original Pun's House content on OO.

[DevSop]

Fishy made the best point I think. It's not like promos are getting lost in the shuffle in the OOWF. If we had a roster of 50 that promo'd and some people were getting overlooked, I could understand a 2nd one where it'd give them a chance, but we're not really there right now. It really does seem like this would just take away from the amount that goes on in the OOWF.

I understand the idea of wanting to be a different character Moose, but if that's all it is, why not allow someone who might be interested in that the option to be two different people. I know you mentioned wanting to do something other than Moosehead Jack, why not just create a second login and be that person?

[Eric O'Mac]

Would Moose job to himself? That is the question.

[Road Warrior Shark]

Clearly Inconclusive

[Jack Quinn]

no, Moose II would be the second ever Grand Slam champion.

And here is my only concern about letting in second characters: right now, we have something like 25-26 people, if EVERYONE added a second, suddenly we are up to around 50, which is HUGE. The most we ever had at once was 43 I think and that was a huge pain in the ass.

So, it has its positives and negatives. I would like to try a second character at some point, and if the PHWF comes back, that would be my chance, but that is not the SOLE reason, and if it doesn't happen, it doesn't happen

OMG MOOSE LIKES MORE THAN ONE CHARACTER~!11

[DevSop]

Right, I don't think you should give everyone secondary characters nor do I think everyone would want one. Right now, personally I know I wouldn't want that as anything long-term. I know you might not want to show favoritism but you could do it for those people who have been around a while with 1 character and have consistently promo'd and are interested. I actually think it might help if we had around 30-35 characters and then we could possibly have a legit trios division or something.

[Road Warrior Shark]

The flip side is Moose, I seriously doubt everyone would want a second character. I already have 2, and basically so does Dev.

If you want a control on it, make the second character available only to those who write, and ask them to write an extra match or to those who have been around a year or some other specific time limit. That way JoePoster doesn't join with 2 new characters that suddenly both need to be written out.

If you want to do it.. go for it

MTA Dev and I were typing at the same time I guess.. GMTA Dev!

[Jack Quinn]

I may consider it, I dunno. Right now we have plenty or writers, but that could change in a second. And I really don't want to burn people out by asking them to do more. Again, I am not saying no, just.....maybe. Maybe I will post something in the OOWF thread to see how many people have an interest in a second character and go from there

Now think about that for minute...is that something you REALLY want?

[Matte]

Here's my opinion on this. If we started up a second federation here, with the same characters, using it as TNA uses ROH, some people with OOWF characters wouldn't want to keep up with two federations, while others would. That would result in a lot of confusion in the OOWF; some characters would be talking about events that happened in the PHWF, while other characters would have no idea how to respond to them because they don't keep up with the PHWF. I don't think I explained that too well, but hopefully, you get what I mean.

If you want to start it up as a second federation, completely detached from the OOWF, I see no problem with that. That way, OOWF posters can choose to post in the PHWF also, or they can choose to only post in the OOWF and not have to worry about PHWF storylines being talked about in the OOWF.
