0 Subject: New Scoring Change Proposition

Posted by: Mattinglyinthehall

MAKE FACE/HEEL TURNS WORTH 25 POINTS

I am sick and tired of digging through weeks of results to ensure that 10 lousy points are fairly attributed. If turns are such a vital part of wrestling that they simply cannot be abolished, then lets start scoring them like they are important and make them worth all the research and arguing it takes to apply them objectively.

Yea or Nay?

I vote Yea.

BUTT

Currently the vote stands 5-1 in favor of making turns worth 25 points. Still waiting on votes from Tree, Young Gunz, Kev and Mike D.

I'm still so neutral on this........it really doesn't matter to me much. I'd rather abstain for now, but if you really want to finalize it, I'd likely vote yes as opposed to no, if forced to vote.

Long-winded vote by Mike D.....

Motion passes.

IMO, this rule would go into effect AFTER any current turns under consideration.....although I believe the Dudley's have already received those points?

If so, then I don't believe we have any turn points under consideration.

If we have yet to award the Dudley's turn points, IMO the turn points to be awarded would be given under the old rules.

If anyone disagrees, please post your argument.

disagree.

if they have not been awarded turn points yet, then we have not credited them with a turn - i.e. the turn has not as of yet happened.

Mike D - ain't it a little early to be on the sauce?

I'll make it simpler for those in YOUR industry ;-)

Two possibilities:

1 - We have already awarded the Dudley's 10 points for their turn from face to heel. Done deal that is uneffected by this new rule.

2 - We have waited to make sure the Dudley's turn wasn't a "swerve". In my opinion, since the turn has been discussed quite a bit and has been considered under the OLD rules of 10 points for a turn, when we do award them points it would be 10 points each because they started their turn well before this rule change was approved.

Easy enough for ya? ;-)

Dudleys have already received points. Other turns that might currently be 'in the making'... possibly Charlie Haas?

Also, it occurrs to me now that I may deserve turn points for Bradshaw. His turn probably happened on Farooq's last show. Was that Week 1 or did it heppen before that? I'll look into it later.

Tree, I think Species is right.

But we almost never award the points immediately after the turn occurs. Usually we wait to be certain that it is a turn by making sure that the wrestler continues on in his new character alignment, and does not revert to the previous.

G Love?!?!?

Reminds me of my hip-hop DJ days at KSJS (San Jose State Univ.'s radio station) where I was on the wheels of steel as "Scholar G". My buddy's name who brought me in on it was "Dr. Love". Maybe G. Love is our out-of-wedlock child.
