So I see a bunch of 'other game's references. Is there some bad blood or something I've missed since GDP has come out?
I just started one of my other feds back up. I also just bought my first GFP set. I can say I like how the few matches I've toyed with it have been so much faster a play. Definitely going to try and get the nice and nephews playing.

No, there's no bad blood. There are people that still like it, in fact, like I do, as I'm not going to speak for everyone. It's just that we've become more engrossed into this game due to its more simplified game play mechanics and MMA/fighting game aesthetics. Heck, if it wasn't FOR that other game, THIS wouldn't come to be.

I'm doing a tourney for my first champ and ran 8 fights in the time it would have took me to do 4ish.

No bad blood here, I'm in the category of loving GFP because of the simplicity of the game play and the fighting/mma style. I will always love the wrestling game and I enjoy reading other promoters wrestling feds, but I am engrossed in Go.Fight.Pow! game play...

Good! I was worried for a minute. How do you all run this game. Straight by the numbers?
I like doing storys and stuff but with the randomness of anyone could easily win I don't see myself doing it with this game as easily.

I always took the kid when they were in Chicago or Indianapolis but since they've come back she just is blah about it

They came to Columbus a few years ago and I had a lot of fun. I want to go back but they haven't been back because they are too busy running England and Canada to bother with the Midwest.

So I see a bunch of 'other game's references. Is there some bad blood or something I've missed since GDP has come out? I just started one of my other feds back up. I also just bought my first GFP set. I can say I like how the few matches I've toyed with it have been so much faster a play. Definitely going to try and get the nice and nephews playing. I wouldn't say bad blood is the issue as some of the people here still play the other game system. However, I am not one of those people. My bad blood stems from people that work for that other game telling me that I could not make a purchase because I said something negative about their pricing. That was the straw that broke the camel's back for me and I have never been back since. maddog1981 said that without that other game, this game would not be. It certainly would not have connected everyone here and brought them to this game. My relationship with The Konishoner grew from that other game system, and my dedication and commitment to this game is largely due to the excellent product that The Konishoner developed. I've been on-board since the beginning, and I will support this game until its end. There are already more fan-created characters in this game than the other game system. The rules and game-play is developed by the fans, and supported by the creator ( The Konishoner). You don't see that kind of interaction with the other community/game system. I put thousands of dollars into that other game, but I will never make another purchase. Like ewtVerse said, the game has run it's course. I am tired of the terrible storylines and boring characters. The GFP system is amazing because when 25 different people take the exact same characters they all get unique results. Different characters rise to the top and dominate, while he or she is simply average for others. You never know what to expect or what you will get. maddog1981 said that the uncertainty of the results works well for a fighting game, but not for wrestling, and he is exactly correct. With that said, I have converted every character of the other system to the GFP format, and I can tell you that playing those characters in this format is 1000% more fun and interesting than it's current format in the other system. That tells me that the GFP format is perfect for what I am looking for. When I want to run a wrestling promotion, it will be on GFP formatted characters. With that wall of text I will leave you with welcome to/back to GFP. I hope you enjoy your stay!

I should also add that we have an online version of the game as well that we are developing. Most of the cards are there for online play. If you want information about that, just let us know and we can get you access.

I will say. My biggest problem right now is the fact that Online is still not 100% and as Online only I've been cut off from new product.
