2. Promoter Spotlight
A. Joe Jaczewski
I've been playing GWF for I don't know how many years now (too
lazy to
drag
out my first order form) and I've never stopped loving it!
I usually
don't
have to play over the school year because I am so busy. I
play sometimes
on
vacations. This summer, I deemed it to be "The summer
of the computer"
because we finally have a computer that all the games work
on. And I did
play day and night on the computer with friends over the
modem. But even
that got dry and I only play once and a while now. So I
turned to GWF as
soon as I could, and I just couldn't stop! It's
addicting! Like Tom
said
in Promoter #37, it's not pre-determined; it's all the roll of
the dice.
That's what makes it so exciting.
I like to have frequent title change-of-hands and stable
changes. The
storyline is my favorite part to come up with. Especially
naming new
tag-
teams. But when I start a match, I can't stop until it's
over. I used
to
be the commentators when I rolled the dice and I recorded some
cards.
There's just so much to do. Since it's futuristic, there
unlimited
possibilities that you can come up with.
No other game has kept me playing through the years. Yea,
computer games
are
fun, but you beat them and it's on to the next one. With
COTG, new
wrestlers
come into effect and age so it is a continuous game-no end (at
least I
hope it
won't end!). And if you get bored with your fed., start a
new one!
Tom even gets everyone involuted through his web site and the GWF
Promoter
(that's why we have to stop CPC from taking over. They'll
drive GWF
loyalists
away). As long as Tom keeps coming up with sets, people
will buy. And
not
only the loyal ones, but the also the new people who will become
hooked
in a
short amount of time. I would say that Champions of the
Galaxy is the
best
game I have ever played.

3. Flashback 2087: A Year In Review by Kenneth West ([email protected])
My GWF fed started with a bang.... Heres the rundown for the
year.....
January 2087: This was the month of the first airing of the GWF
on
Universal
television. The first broadcast was a 24 man battle royal to
crown the
first
GWF champion. The match was long and brutal but Thantos toppled
23 other
men
to claim the Galaxian Title. Later in the month came Thantos's
first
title
defense against Lord Nexus at MegaCard. Thantos won the match due
to
Comrade
Terror's outside interference to save Thantos. Also in January, A
tourny
was
held to crown the GWF Tag Team Champions. At MegaCard 2, Pulsar
betrayed
his
tag partner in the tourny, Star Warrior to join The Society of
Death.
Finally
at MegaCard 3, Death Knight and Executioner were crowned the
First GWF
Tag
Team Champions. Also at the same event Lord Nexus defeated
Thantos in a
grueling Hydra Lumberjack Match to win the Glaxian Title.
February: At February's PPV, Thundermania, Exo- King injured
Omega's neck
and
Thanos regained the Galaxian Belt from Lord Nexus in a Torture
Chamber
Match.
As Feb. went on, the fueds raged on... Mutant joined the
Titans.......
March: At Blood Brawl, Death Knight & Executioner lost the
tag belts to
Comrade Terror & Thantos..... Exo-King is crowned the first
Interplanetary
Champion, defeats Omega for the belt. In a Torture Chamber match,
Star
Warrior
defeats Thantos and gets one up on him in their legendary fued.
April: The first brutal injury takes place..... Death Knight beat
Omega
in a
match and was preparing to try to put him out when Star Warrior
came his
father's aid and both of them almost broke Death Knights back,
putting
him out
of action until early 2088. At MegaCard 4, Wolf destroyed
Exo- King to
capture the Interplanetary Title. Star Warrior got his revenge on
Pulsar
for
betraying him... by the end of the match Pulsar was a bloody
pulp. 3
weeks
later at MegaCard 5, Krakan defeated Wolf for the I-P belt.
May: This month saw the first GWF King of the Ring Tournament and
the
arrival
of a group bent on taking over the GWF.... The URW ( Universal
Renegade
Wrestling ), However The URW came in as two factions... a heel
group
wanting
to take over led by King Darkstar and a face group " trying
" to aid the
GWF
against the URW led by King Lightstar ( King Darkstar's Twin
brother ).
Wolf
made it to the finals of the KOTR Tourny to face King
Lightstar.... This
was a
controversail match, it was marred by interference by the URW
heels....
they
also " attacked " King Lightstar, but in the end
Lightstar was victorious
and
was crowned King Of The Ring. Later in the month at a house show
at the
Aethra
War Dome, The Gladiators beat Comrade Terror & Executioner (
subbing for
an
injured Thantos ) to win the GWF Tag belts, later that night Wolf
beat
Star
Warrior for the Galaxian Belt in a exciting 45 min long seesaw
battle
that
became 2087's Match Of The Year.
June: At MegaCard 6, another historic match ( was runner up for
the Match
Of
The Year ) took place between The Galaxian Champion Wolf and the
Interplanetary Champion Krakan. This was a long hellish, brutal
ladder
match... both men suffered minor injuries, but Krakan truimphed
to take
both
singles belts. The GWF and the URW " faces " decided to
have a battle
royal
that would decide 5 men for a team to challenge the URW heels in
a match
that
would give the URW heels some control over the GWF if the GWF/URW
" faces
"
lost. The five men who survived the battle royal were : Lord
Nexus, King
Lightstar, Vanity, Krakan, & Massif..... Krakan and Lightstar
were chosen
as
the leaders of the united front. They decided on a battle zone
elimination
match to take place in July at Galaxian Starfest, The URW heels
accepted
with
evil grins on their faces..........
July: Galaxian Starfest: Before the PPV during the Free for All,
The URW
heels
" attacked " King Lightstar, taking him out of the
Battlezone match,
making it
a 4 on 5 man encounter in the URW heels favor... In the first
bout of the
PPV
Wolf regained the Interplanetary Title in a return Ladder match
with
Krakan.
Pulsar got his first ever victory by beating Omega in a
Turnbuckle Shock
Match...... Finally in the Battlezone match, both teams fought
hard and
were
both down to one man each: Krakan and King Darkstar, both men
exhausted
and
wore out, fought valiantly... Krakan had Darkstar down and was
ready to
pin
him when all of the sudden King Darkstar came to the ring and
whacked
Krakan
from behind with a chair, causing the URW heels to win the
match!!!!! It
was
then announced that the URW face vs. URW heel war was just a
setup to
trap the
GWF......it worked....... at the end of the month Krakan recieved
many
challenges from URW members for the Galaxian Belt....... He beat
them
all,
Pulsar jumped ship from the Society of Death to join the URW,
Mutant did
the
same betraying the Titans to join the renegade organization.....
At a GWF
Turbo broadcast the team of Ravage & Brutar Magus beat the
Gladiators to
claim
the GWF Tag belts for the URW.....
August: At the Rigel Royal Rumble, Proteus outlasted 29 other GWF
superstars
by staying in the rumble for 42 mins to win the first ever GWF
Royal
Rumble,
by doing this he earned a shot at The Galaxian Title at Decembers
Cosmic
Clash......
September to Late November: No title changes except Star Warrior
beating
Wolf
for the I-P Title in mid Oct. The GWF suffered numerous attacks
from the
URW.... Krakan was looked on as an impromptu leader in the war
against
the
URW.....
December: The first week of december Proteus and Krakan were both
facing
other
wrestlers as warm up bouts for their Cosmic Clash encounter.....
Two
weeks
before Cosmic Clash, The URW attacked and injured both Krakan and
Proteus,
trying to make sure they didnt have their match...... it
failed....
Cosmic
Clash 2087: Massif beats URW member Plutonian Raider in a record
time of
20
seconds...... The Gladiators w/ Thantos & Comrade Terror
humiliated the
URW in
an Aethran Ultimate Escape Match........ I- P Champion Star
Warrior beat
URW
member Crimson Thrashmaster to keep the I-P title in the GWF....
In
another
big victory over the URW an injured Killer Queen and Vanity beat
URW
members
Brutar Magus & Ravage to bring the GWF Tag Ttiles back to the
GWF. .....
And
in the main event... the underdog Proteus won the Galaxian Title
in a
thrilling match against Krakan to end Cosmic Clash..... The next
night on
GWF
Turbo.... Crimson Thrashmaster with help from all the URW beat
Star
Warrior

4. Fight Card of the Promoter
Supercard 14 by Joe Jaczewski
This kind of goes with my Promoter Spotlight since it is the last
Supercard
I held. I don't name them or pick arenas for them to be
held in. I just
like to see the fight!

Brainstorm (commentator): Well, we did great in our Zero Gravity
Platform
match! I love this stuff. Too bad I'll be going back
to commentating
(Blizzard was injured last Supercard in a Four Weapons match by
getting
11 tokens after a prolonged time in the ring so Brainstorm became
active
until he recovered). Fire Venom had trouble with the
Achievers. They
had a bad start against Energizer (who has three finishers on
level three
offense). Stablecade was interesting because Dark Empire
started in the
lead, then it was tied and it was all down to Rafaki/Mace vs.
Mandrill/Chaos, neither a real tag-team. All stars were
Rafaki and
Mandrill who both pinned two opponents. Ultimate
Elimination was
exciting where Sadistic Fire had three guys left and Reckless
only one
and Paragon got his Final Overture on all three of his opponents.

Viagra) at the
local store. Jerry takes it, goes to her room, shows her
and says,
"I did it!" She faints. Later he finds out
she died of a heart attack.
Kramer tries to break the record for most cigars smoked in one
day.
When he realizes he can't win because he can't inhale far enough,
he
just goes for the most cigars smoked at one time. He wins
and gets
in the book of world records, only to be defeated the next
by his day long-lost midget friend who he thought had died in a
circus accident.
Elaine sends out christmas cards (even though it's the middle of
July!) to all the men in the nursing home. It's the one
entitled
"Nip!" Regardless to say, the men line up at her
door, but
surprisingly, she does her patented push and the men fall like
dominos and she laughs wickedly!
And George. Poor George. Never had a life, never
did. Jerry
never took off because they couldn't do the show from the prison
and they lost their contract. So George went on a binge and
after
gaining 75 pounds, became a telephone solicitor for Erectforsure.

5. New Matches/Charts!
A. Ways to Lengthen Your Match by Yoki Erdtman
([email protected])
As most of you have probably noticed, with
maybe a tad of frustration
after planning a great PPV or supercard, some main events, feud,
title or
special grudge matches are just over too quickly. After
meticulous
planning
seeing your really cool main event top feud turn out to be a 20
second
match
is a great let-down (in most cases anyway and especially if it
happens as
regularly as it has in my own federation lately).
This springs from the fact that most of the
top-notch GWF wrestlers
sport very high PIN modifiers on their finisher moves. Usually
the best,
most exciting matches on my supercards turn out to be the
midcard
matches
were the wrestlers have rather low PIN rating, but only finishers
worth a
0,
double-0, +1 or +2. The guys with finishers rated +4 and above
can so
simply
destroy an opponent in less than a minute with some lucky dice
chucking
which to me is very disappointing if it happens to be a feud,
title or a
special grudge match.
Try these simple (yet pretty cool) solutions
to prolonging your
favorite
wrestling experience -- that being the fast and furious action of
the
GWF:
PINFALLS: For any match directly involving
feuding wrestlers deduct
one
from all the feuding wrestler's PIN ratings. Do the same thing
for all
wrestlers participating in any special grudge match. Lastly, let
a title
defender deduct another point from their PIN, representing his
iron will
in
trying to hang on to his beloved belt. The three modifiers are
cumulative
for a total maximum PIN reduction of three for a title match
between
feuding
opponents being settled in a special grudge match. This is easily
kept
track
of through different colored tokens representing negative PIN and
fatigue
respectively.
DISQUALIFICATION: In my GWF version I have
also applied a similar
rule
to take care of the (in my opinion) way too many disqualification
results. I
deduct two from every wrestler's DQ rating at the start of the
match
(again
this is kept track of by a different color of tokens, and
cumulative with
using Massif as the special referee). Then as you are forced to
roll for
DQ
you deduct one token each time thereby increasing your chances of
being
DQ'ed. This simulating the referee first warning you and then
growing
increasingly weary of your flagrant disregard for the rules of
the game.
Depending on how token-happy you are or how
much record keeping you
want
to do please try one of the following continuations to the DQ
rule above:
1. Each time past the first two times you roll
for DQ (when you
removed
a token) add a token (again of yet another color). This means
that sooner
or
later that fan-favorite-goody-two-shoes (with a measly 2 in
disqualification
rating) will piss of the referee enough to get DQ'ed just the
same. Of
course a guy like Bishop Hell brings with him the reputation of
being a
constant cheat and therefore starts out much more likely to be
DQ'ed.
Using
the above mentioned system though, he will not have as high a
chance as
before and can live up to his tough rep by actually being able to
be the
bad-ass he is supposed to be!
2. Instead of adding yet another (kind of or)
color of tokens, use
the
normal fatigue counters to show the wrestler getting more and
more
frustrated and have fatigue tokens increase DQ on a 1:1 basis
just like
they
affect a wrestlers PIN rating. Simply have the first fatigue
counter
canceling one negative DQ token and when you receive a second
fatigue
token
your wrestlers DQ is back to normal with further fatigue
increasing DQ.
Both work equally well and even work pretty
well together as they
both
simulate two different aspects of disqualifications and cheating.
The
first
being how the referee's tolerance gets worn down and the second
being how
a
wrestler will retort to cheating to save his skin. If you use
both try
using
a three token, or higher, negative DQ modifier to start.
TOKENS & COUNTERS: Try red, yellow and
green tokens for easy mental
association.
GREEN is of course associated with "Wow I
am finally able to use my
car
as more than an expensive piece of furniture!" and should
represent
something good such as your lower PIN or DQ rating.
YELLOW being slightly better than red, but
still not as well liked as
green could represent your lower DQ or perhaps even your
increased DQ as
a
sort of warning to better pay heed to the referee.
RED is the color least well liked if we are
sticking with my little
traffic association. Therefore it should of course represent your
fatigue.
There is also the option of using tokens with
different faces. You
can
then simply flip the tokens over to represent your fatigue or DQ
rating
now
increasing if first at a negative value. This option should only
be used
if
the two sides are easily discernable across the playing surface
as to
avoid
conflict or confusion.
More commonplace than having red, green and
yellow tokens available
is
having some red, white and blue poker chips lying in the top of
some
dusty
old closet somewhere. These can be easily adapted to work with my
suggestions above.
Please have fun with my ideas and if you have
any suggestions or
input
you would like to share with me in regards to them, please
contact me via
e-mail.

tokens!" Erdtman.

close friends more
correct:

this game-junk
around the house or my wife will kill me" Erdtman.)

6. Closing Comments
I would like to start another contest. It's to see who is
the most liked
wrestler overall. Just send me a letter with three
wrestler's names and
a
1, 2, or 3 before their name. 3 is the most liked, 2 is
second liked, 1
is
third liked. Please don't submit more than once and don't
give a
wrestler in
more than one ranking. This is overall so it doesn't matter
which set
you're
on. It's not the most recent or certain set, it's the
person's career as
a
whole. They can be retired or managing now. I will
add up all the
totals and
post them in Issue 18.
Second Contest I would like to hold is most liked manager.
For this,
please
only send 1 vote. Do not submit more than once. I
will add the votes
and
show the total in Issue 18.
Please send all your votes in one letter so I don't ga-gillion
letters
with
all these different votes. If everything goes well, I will
announce
another
contest for most hated wrestlers and managers.
Sorry about those advertisements. It's just a little way
for me to make
money.
:-)
Sincerely,
Joe Jaczewski
