TPWW Survivor JAPAN 5! Officially SANADA's Favourite Thread On TPWWforums.com!

**Ultra Mantis** · 08-04-2019, 03:51 PM

***WARNING: THIS THREAD IS FILMED IN FRONT OF A LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE. UP TO DATE RESULTS ARE NOT UNCOMMON. IF YOU WISH TO AVOID SPOILERS, WE HERE AT TPWW SURVIVOR URGE YOU, JUST LOOK AWAY***

Rules:

Everybody selects TWO wrestlers from the NJPW roster, no duplicates allowed. You can select ONE wrestler from the “Core Roster” (who are more likely to appear frequently) and ONE wrestler from the “Regular Roster” (who could also show up frequently, or not at all / will show up on a regular basis but is a low card act). If the contest hasn't yet started, you can change your selection once by making a new post saying you're changing your selection (don't just edit your original post).
Your wrestler is eliminated if he or she submits or is pinned during a match at a televised (aka it's on New Japan World) NJPW event. Disqualifications, count outs, or being eliminated from a battle royale does not cause elimination. In multi-man matches (tag, triple threat, etc.), only the person who is pinned or submits is out. Shows run by partner promotions (REVPRO / CMLL / ROH) do not count and therefore any wrestlers who work there primaraly are risky picks. REVPRO / ROH / CMLL crossover events DO count, provided they are promoted with the New Japan branding. AEW have no affiliation with NJPW
In the event of a match finishing via KNOCKOUT, the Small Council of Elders have met and come to the majority decision that a KNOCKOUT will count as an ELIMINATION. This will effectively be a slight nerf to the character Hiroshi Tanahashi.
In a slight change to WWE flavour Survivor, your wrestler will also be eliminated if he goes SIX weeks without having a televised match in a NJPW ring for any reason whatsoever (injury, marital affair, seduced by Vince or Tony, Davey Boy Jr'd, etc.). There is a constant countdown going on from your wrestler's last match, so even if bad luck happens - you can still potentially win as long as everyone else loses in that span. In the event of two or more competitors being eliminated on the same day due to this rule and that impacting on podium positions (rank 1-3), the wrestler positions will be determined by time of last performance (meaning main eventing is more valuable than opening). In addition, the six week ruling will occur at the end of a show if one is running concurrent to the cut off date, meaning anyone who loses on the show will place lower than whoever gets six week'd. If you suffer a ban for the length of the game you will be disqualified.
If you win you get your choice of either first picks next season or double picks for the next season. If you take the option of double picks, you must wait until at least EIGHT other people have selected in order to prevent you from becoming The Skippord. If you are inactive upon winning to the creation of the next season, you will not get first pick and instead get double picks. In accordance with previous versions of this rule, a minimum wait time of 48 hours must pass before a prize can be defaulted.
A wrestler must be an active participant in a match for it to reset the six-week timer. Lumberjacks, special referees, managers, "enforcers," guest commentators, etc. do NOT count... but there will be less of this shit here anyway.

Sign-ups are allowed until the start of the the 10th August 2019 edition of G1 CLIMAX 2019 at the start of show, in the beginning of this night / morning, right then, on Saturday 10th August 2019, on this day, eliminations will be eliminated, starting on this show, on the New Japan World, in the genesis of Yoshi Tatsu.

Winning wrestlers must sit out 3 seasons before returning. For winning Season 2, "BONE(R) SOLDIER" Taiji Ishimori is ineligble. For winning Season 3, KNIFE PERVERT Jay "Switchblade" White is ineligible. For winning Season 4, Jushin Thunder Liger is ineligible.

For winning Season 4 and bringing his New Japan win rate to a cool 50%, Conspiracy Victim Vito has decided to GO ACE and will be performing an air guitar duet with Hiroshi Tanahashi, while his second pick, El Phantasmo, bullies defenceless children in the background.

We are jumping in to this season as the G1 Climax reaches it's dramatic... uh.. climax? Let's go with conclusion. We begin on the night of A Block's final, where one lucky wrestler will advance to the final. Day 2 is B Block's turn and then we enter the final final where ANYONE could show up. Still in the mix to win the whole damn thing are Kazuchika Okada, Kota Ibushi, Jon Moxley, Tetsuya Naito, The Knife Pervert and a couple of other guys who are definitely not going to win even though we love them dearly, those poor sweet midcard murder machines. Here's a quick once over of our opening nights and the current point totals:

SPOILER: show

I will be participating in the game, but in the interest of fairness, I won't make my picks until at least ten pairs of wrestlers have been chosen. (In the depressing event that ten pairs are not chosen I will make my choices within 24 hours of the start time).
