Ooh! I declare Show #2!

[Jon A]

As always, the link to the blog.

Welcome to the new faces:

• Maurice Thompson and Unique Element
  
• Leon Corella
  
• Max Turbo
  
• Bane
  

And we're due to get an big boost from Shootfire for a few new people, so the freelance roster will be phased out a bit in the near future. Hopefully everyone is happy with the direction we're going in. So LET'S TALK.

• What do you want to see more of?
  
• Note the KWC/Porno match. Not only is it going to be one of the last non-handler driven matches for a while, it also features another beta attempt at commentary. It's kind of like those old Sierra adventure games I had to buy so many hint books for.
  
• Technically, is the current html based system working for you? How is Viddler treating you when you want to watch the matches?
  

Newz update coming in a couple of days.

Loved the commentary in that match, wish I knew how to do that stuff.

I would personally like to see guys like KWC, BA JIVE, Irwin, and Anderson stay around, they add a lot. Perhaps a second show?

I like the way everything is going, especially with the Trios, although a 2 man or womens division would rock as well.

Very good stuff going on, can't wait until the DCWL Champion is crowned.

Answers to questions and observations:

1. HTML works and reads great. Viddler loads fast and I if I ever get lag, it's only ever like in the first few seconds of the video.

2. The new commentary style is great! Much easier to read and didn't spoil anything. The only issue with it I saw is sometimes it went by so fast I couldn't read it. This only seemed to be in the beginning though and really wasn't a problem more than halfway through the match.

3. Since the style of the commentary resembles the old Sierra games, can the third guy sitting on the commentators table be Guybrush Treepwood? The only line he ever really needs to say is "How appropriate, you fight like a cow" or possibly "Rubber Tree".

4. The addition of the highlights of the match after the match is a wonderful add.

5. The trios division seems to like count outs.

6. The roster is filling out nicely but I agree that I like a few of the non-handler people.

7. I'm assuming that the reason the show came out early is because everyone got their on cards in early after the last update. Nice job to everyone on this.

I thought the Monkey Island series was Lucas Arts. Ah well...seeing as how I've already been beaten to the "Guybrush Threepwood" joke, I guess I should either go "King Graham" or go home.

Love Viddler. Loved the commentary, etc. Glad the roster's fleshing out because Ford vs. Jon's create-a-roster wasn't going to be fun after a while.

SPOILER!


Now if you'll excuse me, I must mourn the loss of my first ever championship...to Jive Pawnbroker.

::sigh::

You would be correct in that Monkey Island is Lucas Arts. I failed.

Ummmmm, go Leisure Suit Larry?

That's fine, but I'm not the one who's going to write the inevitable LSL/Hollywood Panzerotti piece that'll set records for sexual innuendo in an e-wrestling bit.

[drchannard]

Could it be possible that by adding Porno Anderson, whomever might be writing that said piece could actually have an aneurysm?

Only if there's a Skye Ashner segment in the background with Tawny Blake/Logan's wife/Skye's half sister. Geez, Bergin was a weird one.

(I kid because I'm a fan.)
