Hey hey dudes (and dudettes?)!
In case you haven't noticed, the XHF Network will be hosting a global PPV on April 29th, the XHF Network Rumble!
Also, if you didn't notice, then shame on you! (j/k) [half j/k] {but really}
So there's lots of questions swirling around about the Rumble and to that end I thought I'd give you some answers in the form of a handy FAQ sheet!
"So wait, it's just 'The Rumble?'"
-Yes and no! It's "The XHF Network Rumble" but yes there's no qualifier like "Rumble in the Jungle" or "Rumble in the Bronx" etc. We experimented with that in the early days of the XHF, but eventually we realized that nobody cares about the name, it's the match type that's interesting. So yes, just "The XHF Network Rumble" or "the Rumble" for short.
"What's the prize?"
-To be announced.
"How many people will it be?"
-The XHF Rumbles were always essentially the entire roster. That means there's no upper limit. Here we're doing things a little differently by forcing people to sign up. IF YOU DON'T SIGN UP YOU WON'T BE IN THE RUMBLE, GUYS (unless you're a surprise entrant but you'd know if you were). We've had like a 60 man rumble in the past so don't be afraid to throw your guys at this.
"Where do I sign up?"
-GREAT QUESTION! Here: The Official Rumble Signups. Post a mini-promo with your character(s) entering themselves into the Rumble match.
"For real though, it's like a title shot, right?"
-It's to be announced, take a chill pill and enjoy the ride.
"I'm not in any XHF Network feds, can I still enter the Rumble match?"
-Yes you can! However you will also have to fill out a Independents/Legends application as well as the entry promo from above
"What if I have another match at the PPV?"
-This answer is twofold
--1. You probably won't. Unlike the other global events, the Rumble doesn't have any fed-specific or even crossover matches. We want to completely focus on the Rumble match; so if you want to compete in a global show this quarter, this is probably your only chance.
--2. Who cares? It's a Rumble match not fifty iron-man matches.
"How many of my characters can I enter?"
-All of them if you so choose, even the managers. Having said that, when it comes to actually rping, I'd highly recommend focusing on just one or two guys and letting your other characters be there for exposure. If you spread yourself too thin you'll be at a disadvantage to somebody who's motivated and only has one character.
"When is the rping deadline and are there any rp limits?"
-As per the standard for global events, XHF Network matches carry no limits and no deadlines. However, earlier rps will pay off more than something after a certain threshold (such as the initial booking/finalization of the match itself). If you try to win by rping on show day then you better have something that could move heaven and earth- and not to be rude but I doubt you are that good
"Do I have to enter?"
-No, it's voluntary, but I'd really REALLY like it if you did to make this match bigger and more awesome.
"Will you really consider me dead to you if I don't enter."
-Yes.
"Really?"
-Do you wanna push this? You could be writing your entry promo right now.
"In the XHF Rumbles there was surprise entrants, will we still have that?"
-Yes, the writer (Kuroi) has been in contact with a few people and there will be a few fun surprises
"What about the X*Crown and Tag Title matches?"
-Those are also going to be announced later, there's still more than a month to go guys, but I wanna nail the actual Rumble stuff early so Kuroi has more time to write the match.
"Is it cool?"
-Dude the XHF Rumbles were always cool, that's why we did them every year.
So there you have it, the Rumble! SIGN UP YOUR CHARACTER RIGHT NOW OR YOU WILL BE DEAD TO ME!
If you have any other questions, drop them here, yo!
