---

not in the least, although I will feel bad on seeing it ^__^''
---

Umineko (and what was submitted in the UCA topic) pics done
---

Umineko bios finished

Coming up a hair short on Stargate pics today I suspect

who knew it would be hard to find any kinda anything for adult Bean from Ender
---

Stargate finished on schedule

I think this will be UCA week
---

The upcoming schedule currently looks like this.

August: This is meant to be the final month for adding new content. Effectively it's going to be an exercise in completing as much of the remaining ideas from the TEW2020 Design Document (the document where all the hundreds of possible ideas and suggestions were logged and outlined) as humanly possible before the end of the month.

September to December: This will see the addition of the 'second wave' of testers; that is, I'll be bringing 3-6 new people on board (*) to provide fresh eyes and to begin initial play-testing of the game. The focus of the project will change, moving from 'adding and upgrading content' to polishing up the new stuff, bug fixing, and adjusting any values that need it. I'll also be starting work on creating the default data so that we can do full testing, filling in the Player's Handbook with all the necessary information that hasn't already been done, and adding in the interface graphics as they arrive. At some point during this period the idea is to also open up threads to allow people to suggest Attributes and Products.

January to March: The hope is to arrive at 2020 with a game that is close to a finished state and with a fully updated database with which to test everything out properly. This will then be the launch of full scale final testing, where we aim to eradicate any remaining bugs and get the trickier elements, like finances, properly adjusted to provide an optimum level of difficulty and realism. We'll also convert over some other TEW2016 databases to make sure that the data converts without issue and that they run pretty well (while taking into account that they won't have some features enabled, naturally). At the same time we'll also be adding in whatever interface graphics are left to do.

April to July: Depending on how testing goes, TEW2020 should be launched sometime in this time frame. It's a large window simply because of the size of the game and the fact that there's so much new content that it's not really possible to gauge how long testing will take. I'm not sure whether we'll be releasing the editor earlier than the game, as we have in the past so that database makers can make an early start, that will depend how things go.

Did I end up with a pic for UCA? I honestly dont know what to use but think maybe a sprite was posted?
---

So apparently taking a term off classes is actually a thing I can do, I've just been assuming I can't because that seemed a bit silly. ....As such, assuming hurricane season permits I should actually be good to work on my dumb bullshit from Aug 26 to October 27th. Probably a bit late in the hecking schedule mind but won't have classwork at least.

...Also I've apparently been working on my Bachelor's degree when I've spent this entire time thinking it was just my associates @__@'

Also I yes you did Maniac.
---

So we have until a year from now to finish on our end and then when it releases we can spend a few months adding things for the new game?
---

works for me cpu :D

I suppose, although a year is not that long at our current rate, and factoring in playtesting and tweaking and cosmetics and all that >_>

plus updating to 2020 is gonna be a lotta stuff on my end at least

UCA pics picked! NB: I do not claim to have done a good job at these or any others

---

No, but it would do wonders for our mod release to finish near the beginning of TEW 2020 dontcha think?
---

True!

---

Got pretty sick last night and am still kinda off-kilter so I'm gonna give myself the day off

---

Yesterday also got away from me, so I'm gonna let UCA bleed into next week. For whatever reason, I particularly dislike writing UCA bios, so going easy on myself is kinda nice anyway <_<

---

hey CPU did you want me to do a bio for you because what I have for you right now is:

(....I'm going to be honest I forgot at least 3/4ths of the bulls*** that I did)

---

please do a bio for me yes ^_^'''

(Don't mind these, keeping things in mind for potential B8WL future: https://rave.dj/-sEVD6fkPabEYw

-Realized that I don't seem to have *cropped* the UCA pics?

Just now: WMAC pics (download)
W/F/Sa/Su: 4 UCA bios

---

she volunteered to do cosmetics for uh star trek and logh and I think that was it

---

*Ahhhhhhhh* ^_^

IhatethisCPU
One of the most prolific contributors to the mod, a veteran midcarder in both UCA and the fledgeling B8WL, a frequent hire of STH, and exactly the right kind of crazy to thrive in this setting. Has died and been reanimated several times, never quite managing to escape getting dragged back into the ring. Tends to mix surreal, self-deprecating humor with extreme hardcore brawling. Has no problem jobbing, and indeed prefers to avoid title matches and major pushes. Has wrestled Luster about 573 times.

---

only problem I have with that is it really feels like that number at the end is a bit low ^_^'
Seriously tho that's pretty much perfect, thank ya, Tahm ^_^ (hug)
---

I try :D

UCA and WMAC pics done. I SHOULDN'T be proud of my UCA pic selection but I am >_>

---

UCA bios done. Next week is Stardom pics and WMAC bios.

---

Stardom pics done

how's everybody doin' these days

---

looking foward to the next two days of NL rumblethon and for this schoolterm to finally be fricking over mostly
---

speaking of they've raised over $3,000 in 20 FUCKING MINUTES
$4,000 IN 30
---

can u hear teh RUMBAL

I am gonna miss a good chunk of it but I like archive binging it later anyway

---

so things have escalated quickly in three hours in the Rumblethon and that's all I'm gonna say
---

saw the mdickie rumble (it was MAGICAL) and got a big WTF from Jawnny with my donation

my work here is done

---

:D ^_^ yehhhh
---

CODY RHODES IS A HECKING NERD OVER $31,000 DOLLARS *and the Rumblethon still has 5 rumbles to go*

(

---

WMAC bios done

Mon/Tue: HP pics
Wed-Sun: Stardom bios

---

HP pics done

---

I might have to be un-lazy enough to get that Freem mod running so I can push Destroyer

---

Kirk Angel tho

---

I would salute but that feels insensitive
---

I don't particularly enjoy the Attitude one but at least it's fast

Stardom bios done (except Kyuubey). Next week is Digimon pics (Wed/Fri) and HP bios (8/day).

---

yeaaaaah, the Attitude one was kinda crap
---

I dreamed last night that I started working on title histories (which is not something I was gonna have but probably the next step if I finish pics and bios before y'all get your stuff in >_>)

I lead an exciting life

---

...and now I am thinking too hard about our likelihood of finishing this and in one of my moods >_>

I might just put myself on hiatus for a while and see how it goes. If y'all catch up I'll be refreshed and ready to do stuff when there's actual stuff to do, and if y'all don't then I've at least saved myself a bit of time and effort, and either way that is probably less whining from me. Might lead to not getting cosmetics done for the whole mod, but IIRC @Lopen was the only one who really cared about that and he's probably gone anyway?

I dunno @IhatethisCPU @eaedwards6400 what do y'all think please be honest

would also probably be the death knell for FWA, for what it's worth- I don't think WotI or 9000-verse came back for 2016, so they probably won't for 2020 either, and I don't think "normal" mods are really wide enough scope to work well. Wouldn't oppose somebody wanting to run, say, a 1999 draft game, but I probably wouldn't do it myself.

---

My life is in a place where I really can't put any reasonable amount of time into this and I'm sorry. I'll know in a few months how likely it is I'll ever come back to this. But yeah certainly don't do anything on my account.
---

I just got out of school for what's gonna be a few months, should be able to get some work done, assuming the peak of hurricane season doesn't do it's thing to me.
---

huzzah (which I reckon means eaed should probably upload?)

UCA Black gon' be stacked

rumbles d1 beated

---

I very much want to do this I'm just in a busy place in my life right now. That being said I am very close to having my stuff completely. Well, 58 guys but still much close than u thought.
---

Okay, I got motivated tonight and now I only have 39 left. So, Woo!
---

Excellent, thanks :D

And if you're coming up on a dry spell you can always kick it to CPU while he's around

and if you're both gonna be out I can take it and it'll be better than nothing

and at some point in the near future I will figure out what Lopen stuff is left hanging and we can figure out what to do with it
