1) Plan A, Plan B, Plan C, Plan V *********************** So now that our funding situation is about to change for the better we can finally begin planning the actual launch of PWX: Uprising. The fact that we don't yet know what our final operating budget will be means that we have to plan for a best, worst, and medium case scenario. Best case being we get all the funds we were expecting and worst being that we get none of the funds we were expecting. In either case I can promise you this; we won't be adding features to Uprising before launch, only polishing what you've already seen. I don't intend to repeat any of the lessons learned during the first part of development. Maybe that's why we had to go through the challenges we did, so we would come to a proper completion.
In other news the fate of our side project is now out of our hands and awaiting it's own separate funding decision. I was reading through the letters of support yesterday and can't resist dropping some quotes:
"The intricately thought-out plan of Dave Wishnowski ought, most assuredly, succeed, perhaps -- and hopefully -- even to a degree not anticipated by the members of the WishboneX team."
"Following presentation of your request, a resolution was passed directing me to communicate City Council's support to you. It is my pleasure to do so."
"The project appears to have the opportunity to span a wide variety of applications, with the potential of benefiting a wide range of audiences."
"We commend you for taking on such an ambitious project and wish you much success..."
"...my father, Stu Hart..."
2) Up and Rising ********************** I just got word a few days ago that our recently operated on crew member will be leaving the recovery center early next month. The motor control in his hands is still a bit messed up but at least he's able to walk now with the aid of a walker. In fact, he wanted to share this video so we could all understand how much the walker excited him:
3) 5 Wrestling Games Go Into a Hole... ***************************** Oh it's true. Scientists actually created an "acoustic black hole" recently and for fun different websites are creating lists of things to throw into it such as Chinese Democracy:
I'm putting together my list of 5 Wrestling Games To Throw in a Black Hole. Wanna help? Which wrestling games do you think should be thrown into the abyss for eternity never to tarnish our t.v.'s again and why? They don't even necessarily have to be the worst games. Some games are just so bad you want to keep themaround for kicks. I'm looking at you, WCW Thunder.
4) Legit Twitter Wrestlers ******************* Thanks to Brad and the crew at Online World of Wrestling for posting this nice list of legit Twitter accounts for various wrestlers and promotions:
