cuz that creates unnecessary extra posts just because of not doing the game,its really more a rapid fire thing,constantly ongoing,and its not nearly as deatailed,,,,its not asking for your whole damn opinion on the history of the guys career and gimmicks,its just either "Love" or "hate" ,,you may give a little bit more insight but its not required.

how about we make the game like this:
Since it's Love/Hate, have the original post begin with the poster explaining why they think a certain wrestler is great (i.e. what they LOVE about the wrestler).
Then the next poster must explain what they HATE about the wrestler and why they think said wrestler is not good or overrated or whatever. The second poster must then choose a wrestler they LOVE and explain why.
Then we just keep doing that.
How bout it?

That sounds like a good idea. The only problem I can think of is if the second poster who has to post why they hate said wrestler actually LIKES said wrestler and must wait for a wrestler to be named that he or she hates.
