Subject: AW Announcement

After a lot of thought I have decided that running this place is not for me. There are several reasons for my decision.

1) Staff has proven somewhat unreliable.

2) President Levine has taken on another project, which limits his involvement with the AW greatly. For the same reason I shut down the last fed I ran, was partly due to this. I can't work with someone who is not committed.

3) I stress easily, and this goes back to the first two. I had asked for someone else to take on the task of assembling the card, but no one on staff wanted it. Luckily I got help from a friend to help me.

4) Sometimes it takes running a fed or doing something several times before realizing it's not for you. That is what has happened here.

I can't think of any more right now, but those are the main reasons.

I won't be closing AW, I booked a card for next week and I have help from someone else so we will be having a card next week. But the reason for this post is that I have spoken to Press (handler for Flaming Youth & Press). He runs the Gladiator Wrestling Assocation, a fed that I am part of. Well I ran a backup plan by him for if I decided that I wasn't cut out for running a fed of my own anymore. And well that plan will go into effect once we discuss some stuff.

Some of you all ready know what is going to go on and you are for it. For the rest of you, I want you to consider this as this is a once in a life time offer. It's not every day you can get into a fed like GWA without having to try out and well, this is the only way that'll happen.

AW will be merging with the GWA. That means several of the ideas Agent Storm and I came up with for the AW will be used in the GWA and the AW talent will become GWA talent. GWA is the best fed I've ever been in. You can't beat the talent and several people not in GWA will tell you that.

What I need from all of you is to email me telling me if you wish to go to be part of this merger and join the GWA. I suggest all of you join as it gives a chance to expand your writing talent and to improve greatly. I've already spoken to James Weck, Nu-Blood and Darkstar about it. There are several of you that would fit in nicely as well and many of you who'd have a chance to really test your skill.

I hear some of you are looking towards feds like W3. Right now I'll let you know that by going through with this merger, when the details are finalized, that you won't find a fed better than the GWA. There are people afraid to join Gladiator Wrestling simply because they don't feel they stand a chance against the talent GWA has. A lot of great rpers won't join GWA because they don't feel they could compete.

The point I'm trying to make is, at least give GWA a shot. You'll be surprised. Now, this won't happen right away, but I would like to get a list of names on who would like to join the GWA and give it a shot. So if you could email me, I'll write your name down and when the time comes we'll move you over to the GWA roster. And as for those who wish to join another fed or just retire, well good luck to you.

But as far as this week goes, start roleplaying because anything can change at any time.

Thank you for reading and I hope to get positive feed back from everyone.
