Default Imaginary Wrestling...

So has anyone ever tried this out? I use to play through the mail years ago. IWA is what it was called. You got to create your own wrestler, pick out their move set, create their own finishing move and play in your own league. It was a blast, playing against other people from around the world. Challenging other wrestlers, title matches. We got a newsletter every month.

I was just wondering because I was considering creating my own league. If anyone would be interested let me know, it really is a blast. Just leave your name here or send me a pm. If you know anyone else that may be interested tell them and let me know.

How does it work? Wouldn't someone have to eventually give up to get pinned? Otherwise, the match would go on forever, right?

It works a lil like this. You pick a move set for your wrestler. 10 wear down moves and 5 more set up moves. Each move has different point values, which change every month. The 1st 10 are worth from 1-30 and the next 5 are worth 31-45. You and your opponents moves are then matched up. Say your 1st move is a snap mare and your opponents is an Irish whip. snap mare being worth 16 pts and irish whip worth 9. So you are up 7 points on 1st move. You then go through and each move is matched to your opponents, whoever comes out in the positive after each move is completed wins. If you win 8 moves in a row the match is over. If you win by a certain predetermined amount you can be disqualified, or you can be beat by outside interference. It really is a great time. I am willing to put some time into this if anyone wants to give it a try. I will set up a page with more setails.

This imaginary wrestling might be more real than the made-for-TV stuff.
