First of all, let me get one thing straight. I'm not trying to knock Black's work, as before the break it was rather consistent. The point I'm trying to make here is more of an in-character thing than anything else. Freeman hit the nail on the head, my beef with this whole situation is that Black's work has been almost strictly in the past, whereas my character took a LOT of punishment for that belt. I wouldn't be angry at all if Black had put a lot more effort into the ET challenge (whether it was 'stupid' or not is besides the point, it through situations at you and it was your job to write around them), however the mere fact that I won by a literal landslide shows that no one else gave a damn besides me.
As far as me writing more/better and my chances of winning by calc's that's a bit unrealistic. I'm not sure what more I could do than to try to juggle two feuds at the same time while trying my hardest not to neglect anyone and keep it interesting all at the same time. At this point I'm more disappointed than anything, and I truly hope Black will make his title run as entertaining as possible.

Im gonna have to agree a bit with VorteX. I think VorteX deserved it more than Black did. He's had a bunch of flashback segments but I feel like he hasnt done enough in the present <_< Thing is Freeman, that's all VorteX did at the start, maybe not necessarily flashbacks, but things not pertinent to wrestling. If you equate it out from FH-OEV when the plans were made I think they're very similar, and quite possibly would have been identical in the calcs over that period of time. As I said I sympathize with VorteX however he had a chance, and it didn't happen. Life isn't always fair, but as I said, if VorteX doesn't like it, he has a opportunity to take advantage of this all and remedy the situation.

Vortex wasted his time with the Entertainment Challenge. It was a bad idea in the first place and it's now gotten even worse (despite being over for a while) considering what has happened here on this show.
You tell a guy that if he wins the tournament he gets a shot, and then when he puts up a good effort you beat him (not arguing that) and then lose the title weeks later to a guy who didn't work for it when he had HIS opportunity (arguing that)
Seems to me that Black has gotten one too many opportunities over Vortex.
Plus I'm just really annoyed that I was feuding with Vortex and I kind of feel like Chris was leading Vortex through a primrose path and it would all end up pointless in the end (which it did)

Its just I feel like Andrew Black doesnt exist. He's like Lee Homicide in that his segments are almost solely in the past, so I feel like he's not even real. He doesnt do anything like promos, and in character he's barely been on TV the past two months because he hasnt done present segments much. So that made it especially weird to see him winning. I mean it's not the end of the world or anything, especially because if he doesnt write he'll lose it anyways, it's just I dont know why you picked to drop it to him of all people

I don't think CP really cares about who he dropped it to, as long as he dropped it. For some reason I see CP raising up in the card seeing as it seems like we're losing main eventers every week.

You know what would be a good solution to this? I'm not sure how much VorteX wants the title, but how about at a later date - maybe the show after Seven Deadly Sins, VorteX can challenge Black to a title match. Seems like a good idea, put a little buzz around it and we've got a nice midcard match.

Or maybe we can wait until our feud is over... since the ET title has already fucked over most of our feud already.

Whatever, it's up to VorteX - just a suggestion for him, not for you.

It definitely affects me, and has affected me... since before OE.

I never said it hasn't, I just said it's a suggestion for VorteX.

I don't get how our feud was/is affected to be honest. Since the feud relies heavily on a structured plan, there isn't much else to do with it. I personally think the feud is more interesting now that we're actually going to face one another instead of the 'trial by fire' approach that his been happening.
Anyway, I'm sure Black and I's path will cross sooner or later.

wow, quite the uproar. ill try to address everyone's concerns but im sorry if I miss you. first, sure i may a seem like homicide in that i dont post on the boards or log in often. i work a 9-5 and have a life, sue me. i have been gone since OE on with vacation with practically no internet, which is why you havent gotten chapter two of the black saga. i was able to edit my untouchables lines and thats it. i also dont really have that much to write because the two people i tried to feud with both dropped out on me so i figured i would take this month.
the first person i was going to feud with was CP. we became good friends over the last couple months so we decided to feud. he pulled out. this is when he told me we were gonna mini-feud, which unforunetly I didnt do much for because I was on said vacation. At the end of this mini feud, CP was to drop the title to me like it happened tonight. at first i didnt agree with this idea, like Freeman( or Rep?) said last page, vortex deserved it more because he wrote for the (incredibly stupid) tournament thing. but i was talked into it.
and then i was spend the second half of the month working with matt maverick but he went to Sucking Life (from) ACW. Bad SLA joke, i get it. so yeah, here i am feudless for the month. now that im home i have some plans to hype my feud in two months, which i promise will be sick. so yeah, im sorry, i agree with you, i probably dont deserve it, but like BK said, CP chooses, he chose me, looks like you are SOL for the time being. but now that I have the title, i will do my best to keep it, and maybe we can work out a tim to fight tex.

Nobody's angry or annoyed at you for having a life, I don't think anyone is angry or annoyed at you at all. There is a problem however with the way that this went down, the entire tournament has now been made pointless.
