Two questions for Tom.

[hawk]

Tom, heres a couple questions for you that I've always wondered. Perhaps you can share your insight.

The first one, is what to you, was the most pivotal edition in the game? Obviously, 2087 or 2119 would be the first choices, but beyond those two, which set did you see a dramatic change in your fed, along with others? Right now, I just passed 2096, and saw a HUGE changing of the guard for the most part.

The second, are there any characters you created that were supposed to be high-level, yet seemed to fail in achieving what you thought should be their place in the fed? How about a wrestler you intended to be a mid-carder achieving more then you had set out for?

I'm sure these are questions you might have to think about, but they've been questions that I've wanted to ask for a year or two now.

Off the top of my head the two pivotal games were THE END 2109 and NEW BEGINNING. Both of them resulted in big changes in my belt holders and the continuity of my fed.

Max Shield didn't go as far as I would have liked from the start, but still had a strong career. As I said in my book, I was disappointed by Alpha Force.

Euritar went further than I expected and so has Swarm. There are others I'm sure if I thought about it long enough.

Does anyone else have some thoughts?

I don't know, I think Alpha Force did alright, at least when he had ULTIMATE FORCE (aka Snelly Era). He has always showed a strong following in my GWF at least. He's always been able to go toe-to-toe with Chaos.

I know that you said Reptillo never really went like you hoped he would. It was interesting to see the course of his career in the GWF.

IMO, I'd have to say 2096 was also a very pivotal edition in GWF history, as it changed the landscape quite dramatically.

I'd say uhhhh was it 2089? First one with managers?

That's probably the biggest gameplay impact w/ my numerous restarted feds. I hate how managers aren't used enough these days, so I really, really use them a lot in my promotion.
