I would say to look through the old HWA threads, but they are all gone.

Basically, matches are simmed via AI in a videogame and that is posted. All you are responsible for is doing the promos and such for your wrestler. So it's a SIM and you have to RP.

Here's an old HWA match:

Thread, I command thee to rise from the grave!

Okay. Since this seems to be dead in the water again. I have a proposal:

SWW

Sydlexia Worldwide Wrestling

I have spent some time trying to create a stats/chance based system specifically for the forum wrestling league. Basically, it's kinda like a tabletop RPG version of wrestling.

The E-Fed would be setup as thus: (Are you ready?)

It would be text based. While this doesn't make for as visually stunning fed, it does create a far more vast and limitless fed. Nothing is off limits or un-doable. Matches can do anything. And, there are no limitations to the "engine".

Also, in the real world, matches are pre-booked and thier outcomes are pre-determined. This doesn't make for a good game to play however. So, there will be a strategic as well as a chance based structure to the fed.

All Wrestlers will have the Following stats: (To be the man...)

CHA - Charisma = A workers ability to talk on the mike and draw fans as well as heat.
STR - Strength = A wrestlers overall power and ability to lift/carry other workers.
SPD - Speed = How fast a wrestler moves in the ring. Helps to dodge and avoid attacks.
TCH - Technical Ability = The higher the stat, the more technical ring knowledge the worker has. Helps with reversals and chain wrestling moves.
FLY - Flying Ability = Skill regarding high flying arial moves such as diving moves, and top rope/turnbuckle moves.
AGL - Agility = Nimbleness of worker. Helps with reversals and avoiding attacks. As well as posistioning to setup moves.
CON - Constitution = How much damage a worker can take before being pinned, and how long they can resist submission holds.
SUB - Submission Skills = The higher the stat, the harder it is for opponents to resist and escape from submission holds.
HRD - Hardcore Ability = How well the worker uses weapons and the eviroment against opponents.
BRL - Brawling Skill = Workers ability to throw punches/kicks and fighting ability.
INT - Intelligence = Helps worker in cheating and countering cheating moves. As well as other things such as playing possum.
COM - Comliness = How good looking your worker is. Helps with your workers drawing power and heat.
LCK - Luck = Universal stat that can help with anything. Always in effect in some manner.

Everyone will start with the same ammount of points to distribute among all of their stats. With each match, the worker earns more points to spend. The winner gets a % bonus to thier points earned.

SPECIAL
Each Worker will start with one of the following specials that will help them:

Luchador = Gives permanent bonus to SPD, AGL, anf FLY skills.
Shooter = Gives permanent bonus to CON, SUB, and TCH skills.
Masked = Eliminates COM skill from worker, and the penalities it might impose.
Monster = Worker can ignore the first few weapon attacks, and gets one free kick out per match. Slight STR + CON boost.
Daredevil = Worker can take sick bumps and damage with less chance of injuries. Also, gives boost to FLY and HRD skills.
Brawler = Bonus to STR, BRL, CON skills.
Manager = If a Heel, give bonus to CHT skill and allows for ref-distractions, helping in kickouts and submissions. If a face, gives a bonus to CHA + CON skills.
Former Athlete = Bonus to AGL, CON, STR skills.

The way matches work: (It's time to play the game!)
Prior to matches, the workers will have a chance to give promos and other interactions to build up interest in the match. The better the promos and effort put into the build-up, the higher points the match will be worth to both workers. It is up to the players to cut promos and PM each other to setup confrontations and such.

Once it's match time, the Judge (Me, or perhaps one of a few other forumers) will PM the players to let them know how the match will play out. (The determining is done pitting the stats against each worker, as well as stats + dice rolls to reolve events durring the match.) The Judge will roll up the match, and give the workers the outcome. Then the workers will have to RP out the match. This can be done by them posting back and forth the details of the match. Or they can PM each other and have one of them make a full rundown post of the match.)

Rewards: (The winner and new champion is...)
Awards will be given after the event that will earn even more points for the workers. The awards will be voted on by everyone in the fed. Awards such as Best promo, Best match, Best Fued, "Holy Shit" moment, etc. will be decided.

(Who's Next?)
Tell me what you think, and feel free to ask any questions and I will do my best to answer them.

Sure. Give me a day or so, and I'll have a match and workers setup for you guys to see.
