To be fair, daily posting can be quite tricky (e.g. you have an employer / wife that takes a dim view of you writing lesbian porn on your work / home computer).

Am veering off-topic here, but I have wondered before if there could be a way of progressing matches faster for less frequent posters. Polite post-by-post, not-second-guessing-the-other-char etiquette is fine, but it can be slow sometimes.

Maybe we need an optional "to hell with this, I'm stringing three moves together" ruleset, or something.

[quote="Bluemouse":er23jzzd]Yeah, that'll happen. But it's a good way to train yourself to plow through it and come up with something even when you don't feel like it.

Writers don't just write when they feel like it. They write like it's their job. Stephen King has written/said a lot about that.

Yeah that is very true, which is why Stephen King is always one of the best authors in the world and why Stephenie Meyer is one of the fucking worst. Although writing (with a pencil) is my absolute WORST skill, I do want to try to become a writer to make fanfics. I have the stories I want to make, but I cannot put it into words.

That's also my problem here at times, like with my Avalanche match and my grudge match with Siren's Reika, I KNOW what I want to do but just cannot put it into words without making it too long or too short and boring since I want my works to be entertaining and fun to read.

Another super special Bluemouse pro tip: Don't write lesbian porn Ã².Ã³

@Gregar - I can sympathize completely. Writing is too hard.

I'd prefer not to open this can of worms, but if the two people who are in a match want to do that stuff, then they can. HOWEVER, that is a very bad habit to start because it ends up bleeding into matches where it doesn't belong.

Generally speaking, length of time to finish a match isn't a big deal. Only on PPVs and other special matches. People should know what threads are time sensitive and which are not. That's usually what I do. I'll post quickly tot he ones I need to and maybe a lil more slowly tot he ones that don't have attachments or other threads waiting.

Heck, people seem to forget that not every match needs to go 10 pages. If you can make a thrilling match that is 4 pages long, then it's fine o.O

This, now I have to wait another two days for you to post in our RP.

I don't like waiting.

His username is also the name of one of my favorite plane. ^^.

Also, I had the perfect picture for my third character...then I lost it....

Excuse while I blow shit up in War Thunder to calm down.

Yeah I agree it would probably make a mess of friction. You'd want less a separate ruleset, and more a separate division. Hmm... it could be called Anime Wrestling Entertainment, and would be derided by the Friction girls for being fake and scripted. OK I will stop thread hijacking now, let's go back to the nationalism.
