Over at the RPG.net forums there’s a play-by-post Joshi WWWRPG game getting under way! (I think you need to have a forum account to read it)

“You’re right Tina that was a rough match last week. She’s got a hell of a kick even when it’s not bouncing your head off a steel chair. But I’ve had all week to recover, and aside from still being able to taste the color purple I’m fine. Besides, I can’t take a week off and disappoint the finest fans in the wrestling world! So bring on Killer Masumi. I’ll take her down, then I’ll tear my way through the rest of the ANGEL Corp and anyone else who stands between me and my next shot at the hardcore title! And after that, when I’m on top of the Hardcore scene where I belong? Well, second ever Triple Crown winner has a nice ring to it.”

Yeeeah!

The Great Gimmick Grind

One of my tasks over the next week or so is to really polish up the Gimmicks and make sure they’re poppin’

I’m generally happy, but I’m aiming to review all the Gimmick Moves, see what can be rephrased or adjusted to make it more compelling in play, that they’re “balanced” (for the very loose sense of balance I strive for), take another look at statline distributions, see if theres Heat questions that could use a revision, stuff like that.

To that end, if you have any feedback about Gimmicks You Have Known, this is a good place to let me know!

daaaaamn.

Latest update has shots of the in-progress cover art. It’s dope!

Off to the printer!

I know I’m ready to be done with this game because I’ve finally tipped over to the “oh god I’m reading it again” stage of editing.

On the plus side, Ian Williams has done a bangup job tuning up the prose, and I think it’s going to be a pretty solid piece of work. 

On the production side, I have yet to hit any serious snags (knock on wood).

In the meantime, any questions from y’all? Or have the Kickstarter updates been covering it pretty well so far?

Working on getting the shirts underway. Still need about 9 responses from KS backers, tho unless someone who needs a size outside the M-L-XL-XXL spectrum doesn’t speak up I should be able to cover everyone. But, if you pledged for a level that gets you a shirt, check your messages and make sure you filled out the Google form!

It looks like the WWWRPG Logo and I Like Moose Johnson are far and away the favorite shirts, with Keystone in the middle and Big Zeke and Mammoth Marco trailing, but in equal proportion to each other. Interesting! I’m gonna wear my Big Zeke shirt all the damn time.

I’ll be printing a few extras and have them available for sale once the public release happens, see if it’s something folks want into the future.

Already making a list for Season Two shirts, stemming from characters I have known! Prof. Atomo/WRESTLING SCIENCE for sure. I want to make another stab at a Bruto “California Hardcore” shirt, I haven’t figured that one out yet. Maybe a Bash Hammer shirt. Maybe a “The Graveyard” faction shirt. Oh, and Crimson Bat! That would be a good shirt.
