Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Oliver Danielson - 01-17-2021 Oliver is seen backstage standing behind a podium. Oliver: Hello, my name is Oliver Danielson. I figured it was time I introduced myself. You may have heard that I recently arrested Baphomet. I was tailing this guy for a few months and I didn’t want to make this move, but I had reason to believe that he was planning a massacre of XWF wrestlers soon. So, you’re welcome. Oliver adjusts his tie. Oliver: Look, I’m going to get right to the point. I need your help. If anyone has any information on Baphomet and the Left Hand, please get in contact with me. Oliver does “air quotes” with his fingers. Oliver: But we have similar goals. You want the Left Hand out of the XWF, I want to arrest their leader. Now speaking of the Left hand, we saw recently they had a few people leave their group. I’d like to hope that I played a part in that. I let them know that conspiring with a criminal organization might not be a great career move. As for the rest of them, think about doing the right thing. Come talk to me, testify against Baphomet. We can make a deal. I’m here to take the head off the snake. Oliver continues standing at the podium as he waits to see if anyone has anything to say about the Left Hand.
re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - ALIAS - 01-17-2021 (01-17-2021, 10:20 PM)Oliver Danielson Said: "I see the real you." re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Corey Smith - 01-18-2021 Yeah, ooof....wow. Quick question, why is the CIA handling this and not the FBI? So Oliver, I don't want to besmirch your good name or anything, but if you already have Baphomet dead to rights on conspiracy to commit mass murder, have reams of XWF video footage of him threatening to kill people, have him on tape assaulting Alias, and apparently have enough intel on him to have "a file"....what exactly are you looking for from us then? I mean, The Left Hand isn't exactly the cream of the intellectual crop. They have grammar errors in their hype video for their next "big bad" for Chrissakes. How is this not already a slam dunk? I'm all for nailing this guy to the wall. But this seems....dumb. Like, real dumb. Sorry Horsey, I'm not buyin' what you're sellin'. re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Oliver Danielson - 01-18-2021 (01-17-2021, 10:59 PM)Alias Said: "I see the real you." Alias, I am just trying to gather intelligence here. I'm not sure what you see, or think you see. What is your real name anyway? Are you sure you're not secretly in the Left Hand? That would explain all of the secrecy.
re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Oliver Danielson - 01-18-2021 (01-18-2021, 05:46 AM)Corey Smith Said: Yeah, ooof....wow. Hello Mr. Smith, Corey, can I call you Corey? Well you see this became the CIA's jurisdiction when Baphomet started killing people who were members of an international criminal organization. The Left Hand is an international terrorist organization. Aren't we in Italy right now? I forget where I am sometimes, I'm a little jet lagged. I believe the Left Hand is using the XWF as a front to have a cover story for traveling the world and committing their crimes. I find it no coincidence that they traveled to known mafia strongholds all over Europe. Suddenly Oliver's phone rings. He takes it out of his pocket and looks at it to see who is calling. Excuse me Corey, I have to take this. Hello? This is kind of a bad time, I'm in the middle of something. Oliver's countenance suddenly becomes very serious. I'm sorry, I have to cut this short. I'll be in touch. Oliver leaves abruptly leaving the podium there.
Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - ALIAS - 01-18-2021 As Oliver leaves and any others begin to disperse, Alias remains. "J'accusé." re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Corey Smith - 01-18-2021 (01-18-2021, 11:43 AM)Oliver Danielson Said: Says a really real CIA agent in public. Also, sweet timing on that phone call. Almost like it allowed you to avoid all my questions. Bet he bailed out the bathroom window. Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - (Gravy_Xtreme_5000) - 01-18-2021 "Criminal organization that uses wrestling as their cover for traveling the world to commit crimes." Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Atara Raven - 01-19-2021 A little perturbed, Atara mutters to herself, "Mentions Italy & the mafia in near the same breath. ..a little racist. For some reason questions us instead of apprehending and waterboarding past and present members of The Left Hand....a little incompetent. I don't think he is who he says is either...I'm calling Langley." re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - Charlie Nickles - 01-19-2021 I bet that fucking bastard was working with the dolphins. Jot that down, secret agent boy. re:Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - (Gravy_Xtreme_5000) - 01-19-2021 OOC: This thread is a shining example of why I think people's ability to sell gimmicks and stories should be considered as part of the judging criteria. Much like a dead woman's soul being brought back into the world of the living via a shit filled condom. Or a time traveling chick who's a dude who's actually another dude who's basically a virus. Everything I write is far more outlandish and unbelievable than this guy lol. Of course a CIA agent on a wrestling program isn't going to be the most realistic character, but in general everyone would benefit from selling gimmicks instead of trying to undermine them at every turn. Just saying. Hello XWF, I'm Oliver Danielson and I need your help - ALIAS - 01-19-2021 "Sow doubt, get doubt trees. Point fingers, eat your hand. My right hand is my left.
Proclaim publicly, plot privately. Don't trust.

OOC: I have made similar arguments in the past. And yes, Lord knows I've written my share of insane shit, as you pointed out. However, in this case, people are already primed not to trust the Hand. And the CIA agent in question seems...suspect. It's not so much what it is as how its presented. I have no problem with selling peoples fantastic gimmicks or actions. I've sold the Blackwaters, DVille, I even sold the shit out of Drezdin decapitating a guy once. But if something seems off about something pertaining to a group nobody has any reason to trust, you cant expect peoples characters to turn their brains off and blindly accept it. The onus is on the handlers to make their character, no matter how strange, seem authentic or look like a believable threat. To Corey's mind, what this guy is saying seems unusual and feels false, or possibly a trap. So he's responding accordingly. For example, how many legit government agents are gonna get on TV and speak to the effect of "yeah we pretty much run the world"? If this dude is supposed to be a by the book agent tracking down a global death cult that seems a bit out of character. It could mean he's not who he says he is. Or that the comment was a subtle tongue in cheek admission of his true role. Sorry for this absurdly long OOC post where it doesnt belong. I just wanted to explain my position that this is not just blind gimmick shitting, but a response to specific words and actions.

That probably falls into the Character Development part of the judging then right? |
