Another fun show. Big issue there. The special matches: I really liked reading all of the rules and how they kept getting more creative, but at some point things went from maybe one chart to two charts to multiple charts for a match using 20 sided dice and there was a "complexity creep". My stretcher match was just about looking at the feud chart and noticing it was all pretty much laid out there already for the stretcher match. No extra equiptment and no extra charts needed than what came with the game.
About my game review: it is ENTIRELY possible I timed the show to the minute and wrote it that way in my review. I would do weird stuff like that. And I definitely was rolling dice as soon as those new sets arrived. Mr Galaxy and Lance I liked best because they gave me good mid and upper midcard depth and I just liked that Vanity got a partner who could prop him up a little. Plus, he kind of had that Rick Rude look going so he was an easy character to figure out how to use.

Wonder if whoever gets the Valentine poster that they'll rip it up like the old days.

Great episode! I love listening to the old Super Reports...with all the traveling I have done with the marine Corps, I lost them over the years... I wonder these things at the moment... one would be how the super report would fair in today's world...and how our booking would be different then it was back then...have to admit, there was some crazy sh*t going on back then.

Every time I hear these Super Report episodes I'm reminded how I was playing the game intensely at the time, but had not idea about the Super Report so I totally missed out on this corner of the fandom in real time.
