Here's the deal.
I am done with my two year college. Next for me is two more years to get my BA, then another year for my masters. After that, I plan on getting my doctorate. Anyways, I have the next 2 1/2 months off. A few of us have talked about going to another fed. At the same time, I see a few of you are asking what's going on with this place. I've heard from Whitey, Slam II, and James Lucas. I know Luke was talking about going to a new fed. We thought we might be able to get me and AJ along for the ride. Put those together and we've got 5-6 peeps right now. I think we could get a couple more if we really tried. So, do we give this place one more attempt or do we let it die and move on with our lives? I'm leaving this up to you all. You're family to me. We've been doing this shit for 10+ years. Let me know what you want to do.

Hey guys, long time no speak. Tim sent me a message over Facebook, so I just thought I'd reply here. Basically, I'm done with RPing, probably forever. I also just kinda stopped watching wrestling completley after the Chris Benoit incident, it kinda killed wrestling forever for me. The magic is gone. Just thought I'd throw this out there, that I loved RPing with you guys, and BWA kept me sane during a very rough period emotionally in my life, so even though I'm not directly involved anymore, it still hurts to see it looking pretty dismal. BWA taught me how to write, and let me meet a whole bunch of people from all over the world, so that was pretty awesome, and I'll always remember the fun stuff In life, I'm the best, Kyle

I talked to James. He is about to get married, but said he wants in. He said he's planning on stopping by the site before the end of the night. He was supposed to go golfing with some people he works with, but it's raining, so he should be free sooner. (atleast I think he will be.)

Here's my deal.
See, I'm still really busy with work and social life, and I've been dating the same girl for almost a year now so that takes away a bunch of time as well. HOWEVER...since my last time here, when I went AWOL, I've been thinking a lot about different storylines to use...new character turns, matches, feuds, the works. And you know...I want to get some of this creative energy out and actually do something with it here.
Thing is, won't be able to compete with the nine thousand roleplay a week guys, seeing as I can only log on here once or twice a week as is. If there were some sort of roleplay limit, like...your best 2 count for the match or something...then I'm in, for sure. Keep me updated on facebook messages, I check those much more frequently.
I really hope James Lucas comes back. I never got to beat him...and for some reason I always liked the competition he had, kinda like Whitey versus Chris Holtz. Get him back in here, and I guarantee we can have a badass fued.

Ask and you shall recieve. I got a text from Timbo today asking me if I would be willing to make a comeback. Truth is, I talked to Timbo a month or so ago and asked him if the AWA was alive or if it was dead. He told me it was pretty dead and told me about some other fed. I told him I wasn't sure I would be interested in another fed, but would love to try getting the AWA running again. I loved it here until things started to change a lot. I am here now. I can't guarantee 9 hundred promos a week, but I can guarantee to put my heart and soul into the ones that I do post. I hope we can get this place running soon. I'd love to have a show up and running very soon.

I'm a bag mixed feelings. Luke had talked me into an invasion of another fed along with Timmy. I felt if we relied on each other, then it could work.
Obviously I never gave up on writing as evidenced by my book being released later this work and another one in the pipeline plus all the papers I'll have to write as I work on getting my Masters of the next year (gotta one up you, Timmy!). Creativity has never been my problem. Time and motivation has. I never wanted to RP unless I knew I could toss out a lot a week. Maybe Whitey's idea is best. Write however much you like, but then nominate your best. In essence, that would make it more realistic. At the rate we used to RP, you'd never fit that into a 2 hour show. We wrote a month+ of interviews and vignettes in a typical week. I would just want an option where if both guys knew they'd have time in a week, they could RP freely and have it all count.
Honestly, I still love the competition, but I have become more of a SL guy in the past few years. What Luke and I did last year was epic, and it didn't matter who won or lost. The title was actually an afterthought as the main focus was AJ wanting to kill MJ. It's more about the big picture and the story moreso than the details, but I don't want to lose the little RPs you toss out that can surprise you in how it inspires everyone else.
My heart is with BWA/CWA/AWA, but would we have the man power to make the fed legit? Also, when Timmy's classes resume, I can't imagine how he'd have time to run this place. I did when I was getting my BA, but I didn't have to worry about a home or family. That'd be a hefty workload.

Whitey: Nice to see you. James: Nice to see you as well. I would love a solid Whitey vs. James feud. You guys had some good stuff in the past. Together, under a RP deadline, I think the two of you could be gold. AJ: I fully understand what you mean. I have been working on two stories as of late. I agree, when my classes start back up, it will be a bit hectic again, but there is one difference right now: our schedules have changed up a lot. We don't have much time to spend together because she took a new job working evenings/nights. So, I am at school during the day and she is working nights. The amount of time I have will be much more. I was going to write about this last month, but decided to hold off until finals were over.
Either way, if we never give it a shot, we'll never know. What we all know, and all agree on, is that we love this place. We bleed it. If we're going to try another run, what better place than here?
When I first brought the AWA back, it was a part time fed. I had a RP deadline. I would be more than willing to do that again. I believe the deadline last time was 3 . . . but you could RP as much as you'd like . . . I would be more than willing to do that again if everyone wanted to go that route. That is something we will discuss if we get things running again.
Right now, we've got: MJ Slam II James Lucas Whitey Ford (if it's part time)
. . . let's see who else we can get.

I got an email from Adam Linn who said he would be more than willing to make a comeback. I also got an email from Billy Boy who said he will have internet back in 3 weeks and is definitely coming back. So, with that said, it looks like the list is growing. Without Linn actually signing up and RPing here, I'm not counting him in . . . but we'll definitely have Billy Boy back. So here's the new list: MJ Slam II James Lucas Whitey Ford Billy Boy The list keeps growing . . . let's see what we can do here

I never said I wouldn't come back. Am I not good enough to be on the list?
