Sep/Oct 05 Promoter

[Pete Beck]

Tom, Mark or John,

Any of you want to drop a preview on the next Promoter???

[GalactiKing]

That would be cool.

[Tom]

That's coming any day now at the official site! Thanks for asking!

One thing you can look forward to is an in-depth look at aCe and what's coming in aCe 2120.

If you read this before the new Promoter hits your hands.. there is a lot of stuff in there.. I really think this is one everyone will love.. including 2.. count 'em.. 2 special matches..

[Wayne]

I've mentioned this a long time back but I'd love to see a page or two dedicated to pro artist drawings of some of the legendary GWF arenas .ie. Deimos IG Arena, Aethran War Dome, Brymstone Battle Dome. I imagine the lay outs would be very distinctive from system to system and would like to see it. What do other promoters think?

Also maybe a drawing of one of the current champs wearing a belt so we could see what it looks like (I know some guy had an actual belt made once).

I'd do it myself but I cannot draw to save my life!

[pikemojo]

Wayne has some great ideas that I am sure GWFers would love to see. I however am not a GWFer I am only into LOW and I am just curious what is included in the Promoter for the followers of LOW. I really feel like there are times where there should be a bit more coverage on LOW in the promoter. In times where there is no new set in the forseeable future all the LOW news seems to dry up. I would at least like to hear some plans from Tom or something to keep us pumped.

[tystates]

Currently the Promoter lists rankings for LOW like it does with the GWF.

[John Krause]

As far as LOW is concerned.. I would like to do a bit more with that side of the game.. maybe wrestler spotlights.. career highlights.. etc.. basically character embellishment very much the same as articles that are done for GWFers and CPCers.. i.e. past Blizzard articles..

This would be nice for those that are not totally familiar with some of the Legends contained in the game.. but it could be a nice trip down memory lane for those who are well "old-schooled."

While I do have a few ideas on possible items.. I would prefer to see whatever LOW stuff, placed in the Promoter, come from other promoters. It is after all our publication not mine..

For now.. one of the two special matches referred to in my previous post.. will have something to do with LOW..

The other.. well it has nothing to do with LOW.. but it is tied to another legend.. a .. headbanging.. legend... hmmmmmmm...

[Vidtek]

I'm sure if more stuff for the LOW was submitted, Tom would include it. The Legends Recap gets a whole page last I knew, but they might expand if more material came in.

[Matt]

Actually I'd rather see less LOW stuff in the Promoter, and give it it's own mini-newsletter. There are just too many people exclusive to either GWF or LOW to include both in one newsletter...

[JimSteel]

I agree that there should be a seperate newsletter for Legends but for that to happen there will have to be more submissions for it and stuff

[GMAN]

i think that two newsletters would be awesome , 1 for GWF and 1 for LOW , the downside is i help out with a newsletter for my local union and know it takes alot of effort to get done. but it would definetley makes sense to have two newsletters if there was more info for the LOW fed. ;D

[canadianpittbull]

I think it would be neat to make the Promoter double sided meaning the book could be split into two sections. One side has a cover for COG and goes so far and then you flip the book over and read it from the other side meaning the "back" Or "front" depending on your preference would hold LOW. cut down on costs and be efficient for fans of both publications and feds.
Dunno just figure it would work until there was enough LOW stuff to warrant its own publication.

[Matt]

But honestly for the $15 or whatever I spend on a subscription, I don't want LOW stuff in there, because that means LESS GWF stuff. To me, it's the GWF Promoter.

WELL SAID. Just like it's the GWF TRIVIA CONTEST.

Not the GWF, CPC, and LOW trivia contest.

Yeah, I know its a good crossmarketing opportunity, but I really think that the LOW stuff needs to go from the Promoter (with the exceptions of mentions in the View from Fed HQ and ads on the back cover). I'm really not into LOW as much as COTG.

There was talk at Galacticon of a quarterly LOW newsletter. Tom was open to the idea if someone stepped up to head it up. Would make good business sense, since a good portion of the current subscribers would buy both publications, and alot of th new LOW promoters would get the newsletter if it was exclusive to LOW.

So who is going to step up to head up the LOW Promoter?

How about the GWF 2087-2108 / 2119 Trivia Contest, and then I'll be able to compete with you...

[GalactiKing]

Sorry. The Questions will come from any and all sets. Maybe also a few questions from Dark Menace

My bad Troy. Wasn't aware you were in charge of the trivia contest...

[pikemojo]

Well the promoter is supposed to covering all parts of Filsinger Games currently. I would definitely stop getting the promoter if there ceased to be LOW coverage. I would also quit my subscription if I don't see much more in the way of LOW coverage. Lately all I get is rankings.
