The way it works is like any wrestling promotion: there are matches and feuds, titles and popularity; and to win you must defeat your opponent in the squared-circle by more accurately predicting the results of future WWE shows.
Think of it like a fantasy league such as football or hockey or soccer, but for wrestling. Instead of picking a quarterback and a running back and some wide receivers, you’re just going to pick a couple wrestlers each week and be awarded points for how well they perform.

Introduction
Coli Wrestling Championship (CWC) is a WWE fantasy league (or prediction fed; p-fed for short).

CWC Wrestlers
The wrestlers of the CWC are played by those of you who have signed up to join! In order to join you should visit the Character Creation part of this thread and fill out the form. You can simply copy a real-life wrestler's profile or be creative and make one of your own.
As your wrestler progresses through the ranks he will earn title opportunities and so-on-and-so-forth. Each week, based on his output in the ring, your character will earn, or lose, Overness. Overness is the objective value of your character, and is used to determine ranking on the card and future match scheduling. The more matches you win, the more over you become.
Your wrestler also has the opportunity to cut promos on how awesome he is and why no one should mess with him. These promos, combined with match results, affect your character's Overness as well (more on all this later). If you want promos due to feuds etc happening at the time or post match promos etc posted with results please PM one of us running the Fed and we will add to results on your behalf.

Your wrestler will be put into matches on the weekly card of their brand: Tuesday Night Heat. Unlike real wrestling, the results of the card are not pre-scripted, making the CWC, with its genuine competition, a fake wrestling organisation.
Once the weekly card is posted you have until Monday before RAW Pre-Show begins taping (for normal weeks) or Sunday before the PPV Kick Off Show begins taping (for PPV weeks) to post your picks and, if you choose to do so, your promo, in that week's thread. Your picks for male superstars consist of 8 wrestlers on the Main Roster who you think will earn the most points for you during the week's programming, followed by two wrestlers as Back-Ups in case of a draw. As an example, you could pick the following:

As mentioned before, your picks earn points for you through the course of the WWE week by performing certain tasks on television. A full list of such accomplishments, and their respective values, are listed below these can also be found on the weekly spreadsheet that accompanies the show results.
First are points that can be earned on the weekly shows, followed by points that can be earned exclusively on PPVs, followed by points that can be earned on all shows.
Take note that for SD! We will sometimes be rewarding points according to spoilers, which are of course descriptions of the show as it appears to the live audience if we do not think that the spoilers for that week are good enough to score we will wait and score the show Friday when it airs.
Lastly, mistakes will surely be made with the spreadsheet, scoring and Cards etc etc If we make a mistake, don't just feel free to call us on it, CALL US ON IT! If any of the points seem off then please post in the respective weekly card thread and let us know. Thanks.

* Appearance Points are earned when one of your picks appears in front of the audience live. This means that flashbacks to prior events, highlight clips, etc., do not count. Your picks receive Appearance Points for every separate appearance they have during a show, so if they appear once to cut a promo, and then later on to wrestle in a match, they earn two separate Appearance Points (which means 4 points on a PPV). If a commercial break splits an appearance in two (let's say during a match) that does not count as two separate appearances – we score as if we were in the arena watching the show, which means your wrestler was in one consistent appearance.
** Finisher Leads Directly to Win Points are earned by having your pick's finisher lead directly to a win for your pick. Directly means that no other moves are executed on the pinned wrestler after your pick's finisher is executed – i.e., if Orton is in a triple threat match, and he hits Cesaro with the RKO, but then Ziggler throws Orton out of the ring and pins Cesaro, Ziggler does not get Finisher Leads Directly to Win Points. Orton does not either, even though his finisher led to a win, since he did not win the match himself.
*** Title Match Victory/Defeat points are assessed on top of all other victory/defeat points. So if you win a title match on a PPV, you get 5 points for winning the match, and another 5 for winning a match that involves a title.
Since the Scoring System is fundamental to the fed, and it being understood essential to fair competition, it is very important you ask any questions you may have about it by posting in this thread. Also, if you can think of any instance that might hypothetically occur on WWE television that the Scoring System is ambiguous or unclear about, please let me know. Thanks.

The Overness System developed by the original leader liberty_JAC as an attempt to make the booking process as objective as possible. This is not to say that the booking process will be decided entirely by the Overness Rankings. After all, part of the fun of wrestling is its unpredictability: tournaments where midcarders have a chance to beat main eventers, huge over-the-top battle royals, and big feuds that push one wrestler and relegate another. The main purpose of the Overness rankings is to provide some semblance of sanity to the booking process, avoid bias, and objectively measure success.
When your wrestler enters the company, he enters with an automatic Overness of 50. It works as follows:
Overness on Shows
+1 - Heat Victory*
+2 - PPV Match Victory*
+3 - Win an Under-Card Title (IC and Tag Team Titles)*
+6 - Win the WHC/Women’s Title*
-2 - Lose an Under-Card(Tag Team/IC) Title
-3 - Lose the WHC/Women’s Title
+1 - Successfully retain any title
+1 - Victory After Promo**
+3 - Victory After Turning (explained in “*Turning” section)
-3 - Defeat After Turning (explained in “*Turning” section)
+1 - Best Performance on Heat
+2 - Best Performance at PPV***
Card-Specific Overness****
-4 - Lose One Match at 80+ (World-Renowned)
-3 - Lose One Match at 75 to 79 (Face of the Company)
-2 - Lose One Match at 70 to 74 (Main Eventer)
-1 - Lose One Match at 51 to 69 (Upper Midcarder)
-0 - Lose One Match at 50 or below (Midcarder)
Multi-Man/Team Matches
Only the Winning team/person gets match win overness points
Only the team/person pinned (lowest scoring) gets match loss Overness points
Everyone except the losing team/person will get Promo Overness points.
* All Match Victory points are rewarded together. It works so that if you fit in to two of the “match victory” categories, you get points for both of them. So if you win the main CWC title on Heat, you get 6 points for Win the WHC and you get 1point for winning a match on Heat.
** As mentioned before, each week you will have the opportunity to cut promos promoting your own wrestler or harassing another. On any week where you win your match and also conduct a promo you gain one point.
*** Pretty simple. Whoever gets the highest score during a PPV week receives a two point increase to their Overness for putting on a good show. In case of a tie, back-ups are used. If there is still a tie, the two (or more) people both receive two points.
**** Making loss of points easier as you become more over is realistic in that you are expected to perform better by the audience, and so you are punished more readily for failing to do so. The purpose it serves in our fed is that it gives diminishing returns as you climb the card so that no one can pull too far away and become too over. Since title shots and match scheduling is determined largely by a wrestler's Overness, it is important that we keep everyone relatively close.
In the event of a draw, both wrestlers receive Overness as if they had won the match. I think this makes sense because a draw in real wrestling tends to be the result of a close match, which generally puts both wrestlers more over with the audience.
I personally feel that 50 Overness coming in is a good number as it makes it more than possible to catch up to main event title holders (who I presume will be in the 70's) with the right amount of success, while, at the same time, rewards longevity and keeps newcomers from winning the main title within two weeks of entering the promotion.

As a general rule, I will try to book heels against faces, to keep the card at least somewhat comparable to a real wrestling card. Sometimes I will be unable to do this. Since I book every single wrestler we have signed up for every single card, there might be more faces than heels, or vise-versa; or there could be dedicated triple threat or four way matches that offset the balance.
Regardless, for the most part, I will try to book heels against faces. This can affect your title chances. If a heel has the belt, and you are a heel, it wouldn’t make sense (usually) to book a heel vs. heel title match (though a heel vs. face vs. heel triple threat match is always a possibility!). For this reason you may want to turn you wrestler if you think you’d otherwise have a sure shot at the title.
You may, of course, want to turn for other reasons. Maybe you’re tired of your current disposition, maybe you are turning on your tag team partner or stable, or maybe you just want to try something new. Here are the rules for turning your wrestler:
You may turn you wrestler at any time, for any reason, immediately. All you need to do is let me know BEFORE the time-deadline for making your weekly picks ends. For example, you have until Monday before RAW begins taping to make picks during a normal week. The deadline for your picks is the same deadline for making a promo, and the same deadline for announcing your turn.
You may announce your turn in a promo, or you may just randomly post about it in the weekly thread. Alternatively, if you wish to keep it surprising, you may PM me about it. Either way, I will make your turn a part of my results post for the weekly card.
When you turn, if you win your match, you get bonus points for your Overness. If you lose, you lose points. This is because of how silly you would look in real wrestling if you turned and then got your ass kicked.
You may only turn once every two months. So if you turn on August 27th, you may not turn again until October 28th. The reason for this should be obvious. Not only does it make it tougher for me to book if people are constantly turning, but it’s just kind of retarded if your wrestler turns every other week.
