Hey guys, as you can see by the topic Chris made, uh, I've been given the honor of trying to guide PWE in his leave. Now, I know many of you, in one way or another, but I want to use this topic to put things entirely in the open.
To be completely honest, I didn't expect to be put in charge. When I saw Chris's post...lets just say it was a pretty big WTF moment for me. And even after the shock set in, I began wondering if I could really do this. I mean, for the sake of transparency, I'm not the perfect choice. For one, I'm in a completely different time zone then almost all of you, making communication via IM and stuff difficult. Also, I've never had any experience leading a E-Fed at ALL. Yeah, not really doing myself any favors in here am I >_<
However, despite all the flaws I may had, I have still been given this responsibility, and I'm going to try my damnedest to fulfill it as best as I can. In the next few days, things are going to begin picking up in PWE, and by the end of the week, I hope to have accomplished the following things.
First and most important of all, my main concern is knowing who exactly is in our roster. I want to know who is in and who is out, so I'll be sending all of you messages just to confirm. If you see this, please take the few seconds and simply post whether you are going to be a part of PWE's future or not. If you aren't, no hard feelings. If you are, I am going to be in your debt.
Once we finalize our roster, we're going to begin the next weeks card immediately. The short term plans that Chris has set will remain the same, with the coming card going to decide the championship match at our coming PPV. Getting the cards moving is absolutely vital so none of us gets restless and just forgets about PWE.
Finally, I want to find a partner. Yeah, somebody who can be my complete equal in terms of decision making. I don't hold any illusions that I can do this alone, so from now on I'll be looking for a co-owner of PWE.

With my plans out of the way, I have one more thing I want to say, and it might be the most important thing in this thread. All the things above, those are MY plans. However, even if I am given the power to do whatever I want, this is still the e-fed of all of you. You guys make and break PWE. Therefore, I want you to be completely honest with me. Whether in this thread, or by pm, or by IM, or whatever the hell you want, tell me your suggestions. Do you want to change a PPV name? To switch the format for the tournament? Change the promotion name? Any and every idea you have, put it forward. While I can't guarantee that a single person's idea will always be granted, I will try my best to lead according to the will of the majority. Hell, if you want me to step down, if you all want to put somebody else in charge, who am I to keep myself in power? I want this to be a fed for everybody.
Anyways, this has already gone long enough, so I'm going to wrap it up. I'd just like to thank all of you guys for even reading this post. For those who are going to stick by PWE, I once again must thank you, and with your support, I'd like to make this the best damn e-fed it possibly can.
