But with KOTR you have eight entrants. a 1/8 chance of everyone suffering for your joy as opposed to 1/30.
Make it six months. Less people will take the risk. It'll be a bigger payoff.

In my head I'd bump the list of entrants up to 16 or 32. That way you can have the tournament over the span of a week or something and watch the field slowly dwindle as WrassleGAF slowly begins to fear what the final winner might be. Then on the final night we run the final matches to crown an Avatar Champion. This way you #diversify and make Avatar King of the Ring a one week event and keep the Avatar Rumble the "one night" event.

Keep it 8. Make it high stakes. Don't overstretch. I bet you'll find seven people willing to do it. Get dangerous. Real stakes. Don't wimp out. Don't!

Do with KOTR what you can't do with an Av Rumble. I like the idea of a week, but you can work an 8-person out to a week.
Bigger stakes mean you get less participants. Can't fill an Av Rumble with 30 people doing six month bets, but 8 people.
Cmon think about it. And you too Boots. 1/8 chance of ZANDIG. FOR SIX MONTHS!

I'm new/sort of a lurker here so feel free to disregard my opinion - but if you have KOTR with 8 people then the winner should just be allowed to hand pick avatars for the losers individually. That would be a better prize than just everyone running around with the same face.

Its not a bad idea, but the idea of cheering for one person to beat another because "JESUS FUCK I DON'T WANT TO BE FUCKING JUSTIN CREDIBLE BEAT HIS ASSSSSSS BROCK LESNAR!" is a nice angle to have and can emotionally invest in.

Okay then. Welp...if I have to choose someone for the Avatar Rumble then am I allowed to insert something ridiculous like last time or is there not enough time at this point? After all, last time had Robocop.

Or he's getting older and the metabolism isn't what it used to be.

He drinks a fucking lot if you read his book. It's that combined with metabolism.

The Robocop precedent cannot be taken back. That's why next time I'm petitioning for Jimmy King.

Course it can. I made a one off exception, with an additional strict rule of "Must have a match on Cagematch"
That about sums up the most of what I was hoping for out of it.

Oliver Platt played the role of Jimmy King much in the same way Terry Bollea plays the role of Hulk Hogan. The unconventional way in which he had his matches broadcasted (a feature film) is hardly different than something like, say, Lucha Underground. His kayfabe pedigree is the most impressive of any wrestler, having been undefeated for nearly a quarter of a century. I posit that you cannot deny my entry of Jimmy King when the time comes.
Look Daniel, it's Tajiri, an ECW cruiserweight legend! He's going up against fellow Japanese star Ibushi in round 1.

Speaking of the 70s, I highly recommend the series "The Seventies" on Netflix, especially the episode about Cults. It's strange to see that people feel today people are enamored with all sorts of bananas crazy shit about violence and killers and personalities, when in the 70s it was FAR crazier and a bigger deal. We as a society have come a long way. The 70s were incredibly bleak. People were going fucking nuts in America and the murder count was crazy high.
All of those CNN produced series have been great. They also did The Sixties and The Eighties. I love how they use news reels to tell the story. The JFK episode in The Sixties is especially a highlight.

You may wonder why people ever were into Charles Manson, but seeing him at the beginning of his trial (and a bit before that) - that man was somethin' else. Charismatic motherfucker.
Women sitting outside the courtroom listening on radios for the verdict with Xes on their foreheads. It was really something else.
And let's not forget all the other fuckin' mental people. Ted Bundy. Not a far cry from how people treat photogenic killers today either. Same old shit.
