Since I'm rather late jumpng in here, I'm gonna try and do this in a batch. Jumping off of TOH earlier:
Each of us definitely has a character we're comfortable writing, and when we're tacking onto a scene involving someone we're not sure about, often times we'll make an outline of what we're trying to get someone to say and the person with the best writing 'voice' for him will usually go back and make flavor edits, if necessary.
The TamaGes were TOH's idea from the start, and part of the fun and trouble of that was finding personalities and games that fit the atmosphere. TOH definitely is better for the audio direction on those though. For me, I had a blast writing Ezio to begin with, and as Cran already noted, we were pleasantly surprised how invested everyone got with Haggar which made pushing his line along something look forward to. Far as my personal favorite things to work on, outside of the promotional stuff (Sho's teaser, the End Game Trailer/Intro), I think it's a tie between the stinger featuring the Fuckheads/Saiyans stuck in Buffalo, and Vegeta's Jester segment. I didn't expect to really do much with the Saiyans, but things kept snowballing when working on those segments. Props to Cran, by the way for the idea both for the audition and the Zack Ryder part.
I don't remember if Sho was someone the entire team was set on bringing in right at the beginning, but he was easily on the short list for call-ups early.
Illidan and Red were just good ol-fashioned adversarial booking, a staple of wrestling to begin with. They had a shared purpose, and it gave an avenue for finally getting into Red's character. Plus, you know, Gary being Gary. That said, they're also good enough foils to each other that they have great potential outside of their revenge tour.
I'd have to get back to you on the favorite mach of the entire season, but the Fatal-Four-Way for the contendership was definitely a wrench in the plans the way it hashed out. Air Man felt like he had the least potential for a compelling angle coming out of that (and that's coming from the guy who lobbied him into the match based on his match history).
The GameShark ideas were another thing we had to dartboard, depending on the match as well as how intrusive it might end up being. That said, I had a fondness for the Big Head/LIttle Head matches, as well as Wrestleblanca. |

No personal questions allowed. NEXT.
Not sure if I can say anything specific about Robotnik, but for all that I'm aware, Knuckles isn't losing his gains anytime soon. |

Now that we're done with the Obligatory Beach Episode, can we have an Obligatory Hot-Springs Episode? |

Was there any character direction or plot idea that caused some argument between creative? Like, was there one idea where two of you just went 'fuck ye' and the other went 'nah fam' |

Any plans for Layton next season? He is shaping up to become a monster both in ring and outside, no one expected Layton to become such an unsettling individual and I want him to challenge people to deadly puzzles. |

There are two moments that come to mind that I won't specify where TOH and I butted heads over a direction. We waited until later in the day for Kryptik to cast the deciding vote. But it wasn't a horrible argument or anything. We don't really step on each other's toes that much, though I'd say results coming off Infinite Summer made for a bit of a tense night.
Ask Bryn.
I really want to figure out proper Cage Matches. I know they can be made to work, but I'm super sketchy on them because doing one live, if the settings aren't just right, could be disastrous.
Most of the plots we planned that we didn't do were due to match circumstance. Time management was a little difficult, but the things we didn't have time to set up more properly were repackaged as swerves instead.
We had the idea for Casablanca fairly early on, but I was seriously unsure if it would be received well. It was, and it's my favorite Sharking by a mile.
Goemon's fanbase is now people who hate him and people who feel sorry for him. That's shitty. Otherwise, I can't comment.
My favorite match of the season is Shadow Ball Valley Vs. the Authority. From a booking perspective, though, to name a match where "everything went right", Ezio's triple thread for Co-op Contendership really stood out to me when it happened. But yeah, the Fatal Fourway for contendership that Air Man won was really unfortunate when it happened. We made it work, and now I love Air Man's personality, but all three other men were better options, at least, in my opinion back then. Seeing how EG turned out, I don't still feel that way.
I should say, most people we want to cut, we put a hit on really early on. You won't know for sure until it happens, but we don't like cutting people completely out of the blue without a proper falling action storyline.
There was a more roundabout method for getting them together that we didn't do due to match circumstances, but putting them together was a personal want of mine because it's Red and Illidan.
Sonic, King Vegeta, and even Haggar were all enough fun to write for that we altered plans slightly to make it more fun. As for plots, I thoroughly enjoyed working on Red and Illidan's stuff, mostly because Red's strongest criticisms have come from his lack of personality. I've always felt that being a silent protagonist is not a flattening character trait and that you can give personality to anyone if you do it right. I feel we finally proved that with Red. Hi everyone I just woke up. Edited by Cran Rightia, Dec 5 2015, 05:52 PM.

I always thought the moveset swap matches were great, it let two guys fight totally different in hilarious fashions, where there more wrestler/moveset combos you wish you guys did? |

Well, we were kind of in the boat of trying not to repeat any Sharks, so once we did Toad and Ebisumaru's moveset swap, that was kind of it. It was a spur of the moment decision to later tease Edgeworth and Bison swapping movesets only for it to, again, be Toad and Ebisumaru. Overall, I don't think swapping movesets changes very much, though. |
