Now, it's been a long time since I've been on the competitors side of an e-fed...but I can remember how to roleplay fairly well (I think).

It all depends on the situation...and my own preference... if I were to join the CWF as a wrestler, besides giving myself all the championships (that's a joke people), I'd probably say I could do a fair to good roleplay in 20-30 minutes, which I would use for daily Glory's and stuff. If I had a title to go for/defend, I'd probably spend 30-45 minutes coming up with something. And if I were to be world champion in a heated feud with someone, while having a high profile match at a PPV, it would be any where from one hour and up...

My best work has come after working on one roleplay for 6+ hours...my "master piece" came after several days of writing. (Think it ended up being 50 pages in MS Word or something like that).

To roleplay for something important, I read through my opponents RPs and take notes...then outline what I want to say, where I want it to take place, and stuff like that...then comes the researching if appropriate, followed by more outlining...in the end it only takes a couple hours to write the whole thing, but could be days of planning.

prez i know how hard it is for you to read all the rp's and pick a winner, hell I hardly even skim throu my opponents ones. I you want, i recon you should limmit the RP's to no mpre than 200 words at tops. Short rp's r much more enjoyable to read and long one's just lagg out and out and when you skim throu them, your gonna miss the main parts occasionly, so i never try and add extra boring discriptive stuff (not mentioning any names Manson!) into my RP's, its usualy just strait to the point and a few laugh's.

Well here's the thing DBH...yes it is hard to read all the RPs and pick a winner...but I actually like reading long roleplays with all of the description and things like that. It's the style I use, so it's the style I prefer reading. And that's not to say that I penalize anyone for not using it, each person has their own style they like to use, and I base my decision on how how well each person uses the style they choose. So there won't be any limits to the roleplays, and everyone is encouraged to do what makes them most comfortable.
