Tonight is the final event for Squared Circle Wrestling (2CW) and they’re streaming it live and free on Ustream. Huge names, great promotion, sad to see them go. 2nd set due to start, well eight minutes ago, but hey, it’s indie wrestling…

Does anyone want to play New Years Fray? That’s the Patreon-only Holiday Wrestling game Nathan just made. It’s GMless; you take on the roles of Holiday Spirits, wrestling for control over Winter.

But he’s our giant nerd and I think he’s on point here. Everyone should see this once and just take a listen. It’s pretty good.

I found a bittorrent of all 39 episodes of LUCHA UNDERGROUND season 1. Oh wow, I’m enjoying this. I love the storytelling, I love that we’re seeing mixed-gender matches, and dear GOD, Prince Puma can WORK.

We had a houseguest over the weekend who was hanging out while I had TLC on. She had many questions that generally boiled down to “if the point of the match is to win, why do they not try to win when they can?”
It’s a hard question to answer without trying to explain all of wrestling, at least to me! Especially with all the gimmick matches, which are even more about the middle of the match than normal.
The best I could come up with (afterwards, of course) was “the same reason that people in musicals have to sing about everything instead of just say what they mean.”
How do you answer this question?

Exclusively for #Epimas, I’ve written a stand-alone GMless implementation of WWWRPG called New Years Fray.
Can Old Saint Nick handle the Slay Belles?! Will Jack Frost finally prevail over Good Will?! Can the Nutcracker overcome the blinding light of Sol Invictus?!
This is a custom scenario wherein 6 holiday-themed Champions professionally wrestle each other to determine the new Holiday Spirit for the coming year. It’s played “straight” (no kayfabe or booking here!) with a twist on the core WWWRPG match mechanics to make matches more tactically complex and enable competitive finishes.
Epimas is a end-of-year indie game bundle promotion wherein you buy a discounted bundle of games for a friend, and get that same bundle yourself! Details: http://www.worldswithoutmaster.com/epimas/
New Years Fray is in the Corporal Prancer bundle: http://www.worldswithoutmaster.com/epimas-bundles/corporal-prancer with 4 other games including the fantastic Swords Without Master by Epiclaus himself, Epidiah Ravachol.
Give the gift of game!

But this is a great interview with the new Grand Champion of Chikara, KimberLee!
I’m gonna watch the event (Top Banana – http://chikarapro.com/events/season-15/12-05-2015_top-banana) this weekend, but I’ve heard it was great – and my twitter BLEW UP with this news, which was also great.
It was after the fact, when one of my trainers, Drew Gulak, pointed out to me that there has never been a woman champion of a wrestling company that’s not a women’s company – ever. Once he said that, I was stunned. I hadn’t thought that big. There’s a lot of weight that comes with it. I have to prove that I deserve to be that first woman and that I deserve to be a woman that represents a whole company: women, men, ants and ice cream cones alike.
Like all things, Chikara doesn’t always go the direction I’d like to see, but I do think that overall they’re still one of the most progressive companies in professional wrestling in a lot of ways, and this means a lot!
