Guest Sandman9000 Posted December 30, 2002 Report Posted December 30, 2002 Dr. Tom, I've been meaning to do a review of CZW's Best of the Best 2. (I've done notes on it and everything, but just haven't typed them all up.) I could also do a review of Tournament of Death, reviews of Cages of Death 3 and 4 once I've ordered and recieved them, and reviews of the dozen or so CZW TV shows I've dl'ed. That useless info being said, can I join the party?
Guest Retro Rob Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 I forgot the other kind of feedback I get..obscure questions that people really shouldn't be asking me. Take this gem that I received earlier..."when is hogan coming back why did he left what is shane doing outside the ring right now is vince retire". Then there was the guy with a plethora of Nasty Boy's questions and some chick who wanted info on the Undertaker, Kane, and Sara. I guess I come off as someone who knows the WWE's future booking ideas due to the types of questions that I get.
Guest Retro Rob Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 You know what else I love, instead of thanking me for my answers I just get more ridiculous questions (when will this draft end and would it be steiner vs rock at wrestlemania). This happens about once a month. I guess that I should be happy that I get some sort of feedback. Although technically it isn't feedback, it is just Retro Rob answering hypothetical questions that have NOTHING to do with the columns I just wrote. Hey, look at that, I'm turning into Scott Keith.
Guest Retro Rob Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 QUESTION #3: "why did this draft happen would raw move to 8 0'clock from nine" Will someone shoot me? Thanks.
Guest Retro Rob Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 And this my friends is what I like to call "the straw that broke the camel's back"... "would steiner's brother rick be in the wwe also and what is the future for the wwe title" Communication has been terminated.
Guest Kinetic Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 You could have just asked me politely to stop, Rob.
Guest DrTom Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 Sandman, email the reviews when you have them done and we'll talk. Rob: That same guy with the inane questions emailed me, too. Just once, so far, but it's only been a few days. I'm not looking forward to any future communications.
Guest PORNFAQ Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 TOM COULD I DO A PORNO RELATED COLUMN FOR THE FRONT PAGE??? PLEASE???!!!
Guest DrTom Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 Hell, it couldn't be any worse than that Velocity dreck you "crucify" every other week. But no.
Guest Retro Rob Posted December 31, 2002 Report Posted December 31, 2002 Rob: That same guy with the inane questions emailed me, too. Just once, so far, but it's only been a few days. I'm not looking forward to any future communications. This guy must have no life than because I get this shit from three different e-mail address every month or two.
Guest Black Tiger Posted January 1, 2003 Report Posted January 1, 2003 I ususaly try to send some sort of feedback, the writers spend their time watching the tape and posting their thoughts, so it seems courtieous to give them feedback. Retro Rob is the guy I send it to most, but I haven't lately. I won't point out typos. I'll usually point out mistakes made concerning the facts, like who was champion, when they lost it etc.
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Posted January 2, 2003 Report Posted January 2, 2003 People don't want to give me feedback. my Truth article is the most read thing at Smaktalk (You don't read pictures of HHH dooing a HHHaroonie afterall) and I got zero emails. I've only gotten 3 emails since I started putting the previews up here but I've never gotten stupid questions, I have smart readers!
Guest Mr. Workrate Posted January 3, 2003 Report Posted January 3, 2003 I'm going to give a try at the Velocity job. I'm knowledgeable at wrestling, and stuff. I hope Dr. Tom likes me work.
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted January 3, 2003 Report Posted January 3, 2003 I think I've gotten like 5 pieces of mail concerning my columns and DVD reviews. I think 3 of them dealt more with the wrestling stuff I did(BT was one of them, BTW) and one of them asked me not to spoil 24: Season 2 for 'em since they hadn't seen the first season.
Guest Kingpk Posted January 4, 2003 Report Posted January 4, 2003 I've only gotten 1 e-mail from my Confidential recaps. Kinda makes me sad. Anyway, I'd like to throw my hat in for the TE III job.
Guest DrTom Posted January 4, 2003 Report Posted January 4, 2003 If you cand find some episodes on this weekend, Kingpk, shoot me a recap. I've gotten several emails about the writing positions after putting a blurb in my SD report, and I'd like to pore over them tomorrow.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted January 5, 2003 Report Posted January 5, 2003 I think I've received 5 pieces of feedback in my entire writing career at TSM. Whoa I just realized... I'd better get cracking, my "christmas article" is a week late, and I think I'd have less than 20 articles written (not counting the Velocity recaps) by the time of my year anniversary in March (or was it April?). That'd be barely one a month. Wouldn't want people to think I'm lazy. How then would I get a portfolio so I could maybe get some free stuff and stop whoring my Amazon wishlist in every column. Question, any writers here (or anyone know of writers anywhere) that have actually had something off their wishlist purchased for them? I have, but only because I'm the one that bought it
Guest PORNFAQ Posted January 5, 2003 Report Posted January 5, 2003 Someone needs to take over Velocity cuz I'm sick of reading CJ and Dr. Tom's CRAP.
Guest kingkamala Posted January 5, 2003 Report Posted January 5, 2003 I wanted the Velocity recap but I thought either Dr. Tom or CJ decided to switch off. Ah well, I'll survive.
Guest Angle Armbar Posted January 6, 2003 Report Posted January 6, 2003 Someone needs to take over Velocity cuz I'm sick of reading CJ and Dr. Tom's CRAP. Yeah, they sux. I could write way better than those doofuseses.
Guest DrTom Posted January 6, 2003 Report Posted January 6, 2003 Someone needs to take over Velocity cuz I'm sick of reading CJ and Dr. Tom's CRAP. Especially that CJ clown. What a total hack.
Guest Black Tiger Posted January 6, 2003 Report Posted January 6, 2003 I was trying for puro, but Dames turned me down. Maybe later if TSM is looking for a puroresu reviewer I can do it, but I still have Smark Talk and Rolling Germans for now. APO, what did I send you feedback on?
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted January 6, 2003 Report Posted January 6, 2003 My DVD Review of the Austin "What?" DVD.
Guest Angle Armbar Posted January 6, 2003 Report Posted January 6, 2003 I got lots of feedback when I used to write for some site. Only wrote 1 thing. Damn shame.
Guest Garbage Man Posted January 7, 2003 Report Posted January 7, 2003 TSM has plenty of North American, it needs some international wrestling reviews
