I just want to give a quick shoutout to Jake Borden. The RP was their idea, and they did the outline to get the collab off of the ground. Just an excellent overall enjoyable writer and a great to work with, too.
Impressed with the fine detail in Game Girls work, style, language and aesthetic. I don't think there's ever a moment where that character doesn't come off unique and genuine.
Johnny Bacchus has an incredible mind and impeccable recollection. The type of writer that challenges me both in the competitive sense and as a reader to expand my personal understanding.
Madison Dyson to me as a new member is a glimpse at what the old XWF was like. Ruthless promos and a kind of cutthroat style but also they do the homework on their opponent to be able to cut that deep.
First of all thank you for the votes and kind words, really appreciated.
I voted for Borden & Strife; for those who know me you know I love a good parody and their RP was just a joy to read start to finish, you can tell it was a breeze for them to do and they enjoyed doing it. The jokes landed, the pacing was fantastic, wonderful RP overall.
Bacchus is one of the best writers I've seen by a mile, there's so much flavour in their RPs and once I started reading their trash talk as the sassiest gay person I've ever met the quality of their RPs shot up for me. I have no idea if that's how it's supposed to read but I do it anyway and I refuse to stop.
Dyson, like Bacchus, is one of the best writers I've seen. There's good reason why they and there other characters get nominated for RPOTM or SOTM every other month. So much creativity with stories and nasty trash talk.
Great job all around, two big thumbs up. Thank you to this entire batch of writers (everyone here not just those nominated) for making me love writing again.
I write Bacchus’s shoot as if the Cheshire Cat and Batman’s love child was queer and read too many books, so this is fair.
Game Girl is my favorite RPer I’ve read so far. Aurora has an incredibly deep world and mythos, along with insanely polished prose and direction — I adored facing them. Dyson is a fucking gremlin (positive).
Good luck everyone! Absolute murderers row of talent in this fed.
