Hurricane and I have discussed this and MicroStop competitions will be inactive for a month or two. The Reckoning Pay-Per-View has been cancelled and all championship matches postponed until the return, in which we have three massive events on the way, being King of the Ring, Micro Rumble and of course, MicroMania.
Use this as a chance to get a life, get laid and refresh, since everyone is burned out. If anyone feels like a bit of competition, the MBL board is still open for you to set up your own matches.

Sounds good to me. I've been a little uninterested in making anything for the last month or so

I like this motion. Good thinking, guys. I've been kinda bored with micros since I "retired," only wanting to make one occasionally haha. I hope you guys don't think that the reason for people being inactive or anything is because of you though. IMO, Diablo and Hurricane are the life of this forum along with some active users. You guys do a brilliant job of keeping it all running, not taking anything away from the other great staff members. You and 'Cane have just done a great job running shows, and I think without the shows we wouldn't have a whole lot going on here.

Dean and Josh do a great, great job putting shows together and keeping things going. Gav does as well with the things he'll do from time to time.

I will probably put up the next Markdown, since Gav appears to have forgotten about it.

As I said numerous times though, KOTR and Royal Rumble will not both be happening before 'Mania. One or the other will, though.
But yeah, after a break, I have A LOT of ideas and plan to kick everything up to notches it hasn't ever been before. Huge returns, great show ideas planned, other non-micro activities, etc.!

Sounds good Josh. I said earlier that everyone is welcome to MA until this is up but seing though everyone on there is from here also i put the question up asking if anyone wanted a break. So depending on the vote we might be having a 6 week break ourselves

Looks like I'm gonna take a hiatus from this for a while. I'm working on video editing, graphics, and web design stuff for school and I really want to focus most of my attention on those things for right now. I was gonna keep making micros if I needed to but since King of Kings won the triple threat, I can now say I'm gonna take a break lol

I will probably put up the next Markdown, since Gav appears to have forgotten about it. Nope. It's going up on New Year's Eve as a true end of year Markdown (in case someone posts something awesome on Dec 30th.) Watch out for the final Championship table and trophy presentations in that Markdown too.

I'll also use this thread for suggestions of what can help the board when I kick things back up in a few weeks. I plan on doing Eye of the Hurricane more, bringing back Game King, more indy competitions for micros, bigger and better PPVs than ever and more.

I think ive mentioned this a few times, but i think it would be cool if there was a World Cup or someting like that. It doesnt have to completely take over the cards, but i was thinking we have teams of 3 per country/continent. E.G. Australia: Diablo, Hurricane, Splasher. Europe: MJH, uksix, Masson. America: AC, TC and Corpse Army. Team International: Haasamaniac, Attitude Adjusted and Ermolli. Of course some counrties have more then 3 members so there could be 2 teams from the same country. Have 2 teams face off e.g Australia v America and it would be a best of 3, so the team with 2 victories will go to the semi finals.
This idea could be spaced out in time, or it could be a series of PPVs. I dont think it will help the boards alot tbh, but JX mentioned he would like more tag team action or something along the lines of that and this could also be used to strenghen relationships on here and this is coming from me but it could well help guys like myself, spz, splasher to improve our skills.

I believe we've tried a World Cup type of thing...but I don't remember it going anywhere...if it did, my memory is failing me.

I don't see why not, when activity peaks.
