Reading Other People's Feds...

[ajcostello]

To be honest, I enjoy it a lot.

And I find it inspiring fairly often, too.

I love seeing how everyone else uses wrestlers and how it can be different from how I do it.

That part is always cool.

One thing, though: I'm often afraid to comment and leave feedback, even though hearing from other promoters on my own thread is always a highlight of my day.

I know it's kind of silly, but sometimes I'm also afraid that leaving a comment will throw off the pace of the thread, especially if it's one that gets updated a lot.

I'm also going to admit that I'm really proud of myself for what I've accomplished with New Era Wrestling.

After all the feds I'd started in the past, to think that this one has lasted for a year's worth of cards and that I'm ten days away from the thread being a year old... I feel like I belong in the same company as so many of you great promoters.

I love this community.

That's all, I guess.

I'm really glad to have this avenue to post a fed results, to read others and the feedback is another fun aspect. Of all my hobbies (still or no longer a hobby) the Filsinger Games product remains a great passion, you've gotta love this game...

If you are nervous about posting in a Fed Thread you could always drop the promoter a PM. I for one enjoy seeing when people leave a review in my fed. I also like reading other feds when I have the time and when I get writers block to see how other guys are doing their feds. I hope everyone is enjoying the latest addition to my fed, the use of Bryan's Mini's.

I am probably in the minority but I am not a big fan of the minis. I actually find them bothersome when I am reading other people’s fed results on my phone. Awesome for what they are but they don’t personally add anything to my experience or enjoyment of other peoples federations.
Regarding promoter feedback, I always welcome it. I find it sparks creativity and makes you consider other options in story lines etc.

So do I. It's nice to have any feedback at all, it shows that people are actually reading what gets posted.

I read others to see how they handle things differently and sometimes gain inspiration. I love feedback especially because I believe my fed can never be popular. It's stuck in the 80s minus any storylines.

Personally, I'd love to have other promoters leave feedback on my posts, whether or not I'm posting fed results or posting a new character or match/chart I've created. It lets me know what I'm doing right and what things I need to improve on, especially with my writing (I hope to one day write a novel, and I need all the practice I can get.)

Great goal and totally doable. Do a google search for something called The Magic Spreadsheet. It inspires you to write simply 250 words a day (one page). It's really helped me with my writing. I'm up to 600 words a day now because of it and in the past two years I've only missed three days of writing.
