Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, please join me in welcoming our guest. She is the SCW Alternative Champion, and she is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…THE UNSTOPPABLE PAIGE LEWIS!!!

I’m crossing out names
And no one is safe (Hey!)
I’ll leave a rose on your grave
It’s the dove and grenade

The crowd roared as they awaited the arrival of the champion. They only had to wait a few seconds. Paige Lewis walked out onto the stage, the arena lights glimmering off of the SCW World Heavyweight Championship around her waist. Her left arm was still in a cast as she looked around the arena at the fans.

Here we go again, coming straight from the top
From the belly of the beast ’cause we’re straight off the block
Got ice in my veins and I’m never gonna stop
Body-bag, toe tag, yeah, everybody drop

Wayne Miller: And there she is, but she’s not alone!

Lewis was joined by the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Adatu Urakih. After a moment, with the Japanese Dragon at her side, Lewis continued her way down the ramp, high fiving fans.

Allie Queen: No Candice this time, but either of Jessica’s lieutenants are more than capable of protecting Paige Lewis in her current state.

Yeah, some people got it, and some people don’t
Somebody wins, and somebody won’t
Ice Nine, P. Roach, Undead, that’s all she wrote
And everybody else, well, welcome to the show

Paige went to the barricade and high fived more fans as they screamed with excitement. Climbing into the ring now, Paige climbed the turnbuckle and held her championship up.

Yeah, compare me to none
‘Cause I got the heart of a champion

Allie Queen: For years, SCW fans have promised a riot over Paige Lewis, and at Domination, we saw just that when Brian Kennedy became frustrated that he couldn’t get the job done, and he intentionally broke Paige Lewis’ arm!

Wayne Miller: AND SHE STILL WON THE DAMN MATCH!!!

Climbing down from the turnbuckle, Paige Lewis handed the SCW World Heavyweight Championship to Adatu Urakih, who strapped it around her waist for her. Paige was handed a microphone and she waited until the crowd and her music were silent.

Paige Lewis: S, C, freaking W!!! First things first, Anne, get your scrawny ass in this ring right now!

Allie Queen: What’s this?

Wayne Miller: I don’t know, but I think Paige might be upset.

Anne Carpenter, SCW’s Senior Ring Announcer was confused, but she got up from her seat and climbed into the ring as requested. With a mic in her hand, she stood in front of Paige Lewis.

Paige Lewis: Did you…REALLY introduce ME as your…guest?

Anne began to speak, but Paige knocked the microphone out of her hand, and then continued.

Paige Lewis: Allow me to remind you, in case you’ve forgotten. On April 8th, 2017, I won the SCW North American Heavyweight Champion, in like my third match here. And do you know what I did 3 damn weeks later? First, I defended the North American title in a freaking ladder match! And then, in the Main Event…I walked down to the ring, and went to absolute WAR with Drew Stevenson for an HOUR! AND I LEFT WITH THIS!

Paige points to the SCW World Heavyweight Championship around her waist.

Paige Lewis: I was the first double singles champion in SCW history, a feat that has only been mirrored by the only person to defeat me in this ring, Jessica Tendonin. And then, I took this belt back just 77 days later. I have been SCW World Heavyweight Champion for nearly 4 years! So, when you introduce me, Anne, don’t call me a guest. Because Anne…here in SCW, I’m not a guest, I’m the whole fucking show. Now introduce me again, and do it correctly!

Anne looked shaken as she picked up her microphone and began speaking.

Anne Carpenter: Ladies and gentlemen, It is my honor, and pleasure to introduce the whole fucking show…she is the SCW Alternative Champion, and she is the SCW World Heavyweight Champion…THE UNSTOPPABLE PAIGE LEWIS!!!

The crowd was a bit split. They loved Paige Lewis, but didn’t like the way she was treating Anne. As Anne finished, Paige Lewis pointed out of the ring for her to leave. After her back was turned, Paige charged at Anne, striking her in the back of the head with her cast. The crowd let out a shocked gasp.

Paige Lewis: I have accomplished things in this ring that others said I never would, because they couldn’t. And dammit, it’s about time I get the respect I have EARNED. I’m sick and tired of the way some of you in the back speak on my name. Some of you couldn’t lace the boots I wear to this ring. Nearly 4 years carrying this entire company on my back. But you know what, heavy lies the crown. When I came to SCW 5 years ago, I knew if I worked hard, I’d reach the sky. I have not only reached the sky, but I’ve brought this entire fucking company with me. So how dare this bitch refer to me as ‘guest.’

Brian Fucking Kennedy. I beat his ass twice in a non-title match, but he just kept begging and begging for more. So you know what, I gave in. Hell, you people might have wanted to see me and Emily Desmond go at it, she gets a rematch for the Alternative Championship, while I also would have put the SCW World Heavyweight Championship on the line. Imagine that? But no, fucking Brian Kennedy had to beg me for another shot. God, the voicemails he would leave me at 3 AM, sobbing about he never got his previous rematch. Perhaps he got hit in the head too many times, because I’ve checked the record books, and he definitely got a rematch against Brian Brewster. At Overdrive 22, in the main event, Brian Brewster defeated Brian Kennedy to remain SCW Champion.

In fact, Brian Kennedy was defeated in mere seconds! But you know what…I decided that in order to ONCE AGAIN prove my greatness to you people, and to all of those in the back who are below me, which means all of them of course…I would give Brian Kennedy what he wanted. For one night only, I gave in to the whining, the begging, the crying. I worked it out with Neela, Brian Kennedy vs Paige Lewis, a heavyweight championship trilogy, which had never been done in SCW before. Kennedy vs Lewis III. I set the match up as the ultimate test, yeah. And Brian Kennedy said he was bringing something different to Domination. And I tell you, he did. Oh, for a few minutes there, I’m sure a lot of people, himself included, thought he was gonna get it done.

But you know what he brought to Domination? Frustration. Failure. Self-Destruction. When he realized, for the third fucking time, that I am the real deal, and that he just could NOT beat me, he decided to just fuck everyone over. He broke my goddamn arm, that gorilla. AND THEN HE STILL LOST THE FUCKING MATCH! Hey Urakih, remember when that Chinese chick, oh god, what was her name? Alyssa, Melissa….oh, Larissa! Remember when she broke your arm and then you still beat her and took the championship? Heeey twin. Brian Kennedy cannot beat me. And I proved that for the third and final time at Domination.

Suddenly, the PA system came to life. As the rhythm picks up after around a minute of music plays and the words start to work its way through the arena the lights cut out and a spot light shines at the top of the ramp. Brian is seen standing there with a smile, in his hand is a 20lb sledge hammer. He has the SCW Alternative and SCW Tag Team Titles around his waist.

He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
He had alot to say.
He had alot of nothing to say.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)

So loooooong!

Fire shoots out from the stage. Smoke rises from the stage as he starts to walk toward the ring. He stops about halfway to the ring as he flexes in front of the camera kissing his sledge hammer. He smirks in to the camera yelling snide remarks.

We wish you well.
You told us how you weren’t afraid to die.
Well so looooooong.
Don’t cryyyyy.
Or feel too down.
Not all martyrs see divinity.
But at least you tried.

He climbs up the steps and turns toward the crowd and taunts them by flipping them off and girls scream his name. He stops and turns his back towards the crowd and jumps over the top rope and stands in the middle of the ring, he looks around and drops the sledge hammer and flexes as the flashes flow throughout the arena.

Standing above the crowd
he had a voice that was strong and loud.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)

Ranting and pointing his finger
at everything but his heart.
(We’ll miss him. 2x)
(We’re gonna miss him. 2x)

No wayyyyyy
to recall
what it was that you had said to me,
like I care at alll.
But he was sooo louuud.
You sure could yell.
You took a stand on every little thing
and soooo louuuuuuuuud.

You, could be, the one, who saves, me from, my own, existence.

He climbs all the turnbuckles yet again doing a pose with his arms spread out wide from each one as the music fades. He walks over and grabs a mic. He stands there looking at Paige and Urakih.

Brian Kennedy: First of all, Urakih, you may want to run along, because this might get ugly. I’m not responsible for what I do or say right now. Because this piece of trash next to you has gone and pissed me off. Paige, you’ve beaten every challenge put in front of you, but let’s face facts…you needed tricks and gimmicks to defeat me at Domination.

Paige Lewis: Who in the hell do you think you are, coming out here and interrupting me?! We’re done. Get the fuck out of my face, before I get you out of my face.

Brian Kennedy: And exactly how do you expect to do that with one arm, bitch?

Allie Queen: My ears are burning, and I’m almost afraid for what is about to happen.

Wayne Miller: We know Jessica assigned Urakih as Paige’s bodyguard, and I would hate to see what happened if she had to get between Brian and Paige.

As the crowd was silent, waiting for what was gonna happen to happen, the PA system came to life again, and this time, it was a song they hadn’t heard in ages, but they recognized it instantly and shocked gasps rippled through the arena. We Can Be Saved by Jeff Beal played through the arena, and after a few seconds, the raggedy woman known as Princess Kiya stepped out onto the stage. Walking with a purpose, she began making her way down to the ring. Paige Lewis is grinning as her former master approached, while Brian looked uneasy. Reaching the ring, Princess Kiya rolled into the ring and walked right up to Brian Kennedy and the six foot tall Egyptian woman stared down at him.

Allie Queen: Please god, no, don’t tell me…

Wayne Miller: Princess Kiya is on the scene…and Paige Lewis is…smiling. Does this mean what I think it means???

Paige Lewis: Master, how nice of you to join us.

An earth shattering collective gasp shook the crowd now, as they realized Princess Kiya had Paige Lewis under her control again. Kennedy and Kiya hadn’t taken their eyes off of each other.

Paige Lewis: Master, bring me his head!

Immediately, Princess Kiya began swinging on Brian Kennedy. The interim Alternative champion managed to defend himself and get a few blows in, until Paige hit him over the head with her cast. Princess Kiya took a mic and began speaking.

Princess Kiya: I suppose you’re all wondering…why isn’t the rest of the Empire out here to save Brian Kennedy. Well, let’s just say…they’ve been compromised. When I brought Paige Lewis to SCW five years ago, I made her a promise. I told her I would protect her. And while I meant from the coming collapse, I realize now that she thought I meant physically. And I failed her. But I won’t fail her again. And to that end, I even have been provided with this lovely bodyguard for her.

Adatu Urakih curtsied with a smile. Princess Kiya continued.

Princess Kiya: I have told you all before…the end is coming. I have taken certain ones under my protection, but I can’t save and protect everyone. Paige Lewis is my strongest pupil, and I believe she is the warrior who will stand beside me as I stare unblinkingly into the endless abyss and welcome it to swallow this universe. And she will send as many souls to the Underworld as required as we move towards that moment. And along the way, in addition to my own power, she will be protected by the SCW International Heavyweight Champion, Adatu Urakih.

Paige Lewis: A new era is upon us, but one thing that will remain the same, is my commitment to be the absolute best in the world. I was lost, but now that my master has found me again, we will do great things together! And it starts with reminding anyone who forgets…My name is Paige Lewis, and I am YOUR SCW World Heavyweight Champion.

The three women stood in the center of the ring now, Brian Kennedy still passed out. As the crowd was still processing things, the scene faded to black.

NOTE: MATCH IS BEING POSTED AS A STANDALONE

 

Anne Carpenter: And now for the open challenge made by Fathi!

“The area near the rampway darkens. Red lights strobe on the right of the entrance and blue on the left. Seconds later we hear a siren followed by the opening words over the pa system:

No surrender, no…surrender

As the lyrics begin saying no surrender a video begins on the tron showing caution tape and someone facing away from the camera crying. As the lyrics kick in at 15 seconds Fathi emerges from the otherside of the tape on the video smiling. The word: FATHI appears in Arabic under his face ( فتحي )

As the word Fathi appears under the face of Fathi the man himself emerges at the top of the rampway wearing black boots, dark Southpole jeans and a black hoodie with a murderous rage in his eyes. Unzipping the black hoodie he reveals a black plain t-shirt. Tossing the hoodie to the side Fathi baseball slides into the ring

Wayne Miller: I wonder if anyone accepted the open challenge.

Allie Queen: That’s what we are about to find out!

Fathi gets the microphone handed to him and he looks to the back with a knowing smile.

Fathi: So, is there anyone in the back willing to take me on? Anyone?

There is silence as the crowd goes quiet to see if there’s anyone willing to come out from the back. Fathi shakes his head.

Fathi: There is no one it seems. It’s too bad, I was fixing for a fight tonight. I’ll just-

“Iron Wolf” by Beastwars begins playing and Fathi’s eyes go wide as Gabriel Tuck walks out from the back. He’s in a pair of jeans, tshirt, and bikers jacket. The biker’s jacket has the face of a horrific clown on the back. He has a chain at his belt that swings down by his knees. He has a microphone in his hand.

Tuck: So, I was hearing that you were looking for a challenge, Fuckie.

Fathi: It’s Fa-

Tuck: It doesn’t fucking matter what your name is when I kick your ass all up and down this arena!

Wayne Miller: Oh the fans don’t like that at all.

Allie Queen: Nope. Gabriel was always a dick anyway.

Gabriel Tuck drops the microphone and runs down to the ring, sliding under the ropes and hops up to start brawling with Fathi. He takes the advantage and throws Fathi to the ropes. On the rebound, he goes for a big boot, but Fathi catches the foot on the rebound and kicks Gabriel in the other knee to send the biker to the mat.

Now the ref steps in and makes Gabriel take off the biker jacket and chain, which he does, tossing them to one of the corners. Fathi peppers Gabriel with some lefts and right jabs to the ribcage, but Gabriel grabs him by the shoulders and brings him in for a massive headbutt that staggers him.

Gabriel grabs Fathi into a front face lock and quickly drops him to the mat with a ddt! Gabriel goes for the cover, but only gets a one count before Fathi kicks out.

Gabriel jumps to his feet and watches as Fathi gets up before grabbing him and throwing him into the ropes again. He follows Fathi to the ropes and goes for a massive lariat. Fathi catches him at the ropes with a hip toss that sends Gabriel over the top rope!

Wayne Miller: Gabriel trying, but missing at the last moment to capitalize on his momentum.

Allie Queen: I heard that Gabriel hasn’t been wrestling in some time. Playing henchman to Armand and Esmeralda von Krauss at the XHF Network family of Federations.

Fathi rolls under the ropes, grabs the rising Gabriel, and is trying to roll him back into the ring when Gabriel catches him around the waist and shoves his back into the ring apron. He pulls Fathi back away from the ring apron and sends him into the ring steps, demolishing them.

Fathi is slow to get back up, getting to his hands and knees before standing up. He notices that blood is dripping to the floor and touches his forehead to see that he is indeed bleeding. He growls and brings Gabriel to the floor in a lou thez press where he mounts the biker punk and begins wailing on him with lefts and rights.

The referee begins counting them both outso Fathi gets back to his feet and rolls into the ring. Gabriel Tuck gets to his feet, wiping blood from his nose before rolling back into the ring by the corner he threw his stuff.

Fathi comes for him in the corner, but Gabriel slugs him in the side of the head with the chain wrapped around his fist! The ref immediately signals for the bell.

Wayne Miller: Why would Gabriel reduce himself to cheating?

Allie Queen: Because he’s a dick.

Gabriel puts a foot to Fathi’s back and brings the chain around his throat to begin choking him out.

Tuck: You thought you were big and bad? You haven’t been choked out by me yet. Hi, I’m Gabriel Fucking Tuck! Pleased to fucking meet and murder you…

Security come down to the ring to try to get Gabriel off of Fathi, but fail until one of the security people hits Gabriel with a taser to get him to release his grip on Fathi. Security drag Gabriel away from the downed Fathi.

Tuck: You haven’t seen the last of me, fucker! I’ll haunt your fucking dreams!

EMTs rush down to the ring to check on Fathi, but he shakes them off, walking under his own power.

Wayne Miller: Gabriel was talking about murder? Was he going to choke Fathi to death?

Allie Queen: It sure sounded like it. I hope he was just talking trash though.

As all know, Paige Lewis, SCW World Heavyweight and Alternative Champion, is injured and will be missing quite a bit of in ring time. SCW.com first reported that Neela Shizeguma, SCW General Manager, decided that Paige Lewis may choose a champion to take up her honor at Overdrive 54. Now, in this exclusive feature, Paige Lewis reveals who will defend the coveted championship at Overdrive 54 against Dario and Mr. Creed.

VIDEO

As the video begins, Paige Lewis is shown seated before her coffee table. A mug in her right hand is steaming as she raises it to her lips to sip at the tea. Setting it down, she looks deep into the camera as it pans out to show her belts, the SCW Alternative Championship and the SCW World Heavyweight Championship laid out on the table before her. Her left arm was in a cast and sling and she gingerly moved it as she relaxed backward into her Captains chair and spoke.

Paige Lewis: First, I want to say thank you to everyone who has called, emailed, text, and facetimed me to check on my condition as well as to congratulate me on a hard fought victory. At Domination, I did what I said I would do. I defeated Brian Kennedy and retained the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. But, Kennedy became frustrated that he couldn’t get the job done as yet, and decided to break my arm intentionally. No matter, I had an insurance policy in place, and I dropped that wild ape like the beast he is.

But, now I have a dilemma. The Alternative Championship MUST be defended at Overdrive 54. And while I think we can all agree that I’m the undisputed best in SCW right now, not even I can stave off two competitors while I have a broken arm that needs to heal and regain strength. So, as we all again know, Neela has given me the chance to choose someone to represent me in this match. I knew immediately that I wanted it to be someone who lives and breathes for SCW, someone passionate about this company like I am. Even more, passionate about this particular championship.

The SCW Alternative Championship has a history that is woven into the very fabric of what makes SCW what it is today. It’s an honor that has not passed around very often. People who have held this championship have fought tooth and nail to earn it, and even harder to keep it. And that is why my choice of who I want to walk down to the ring on my behalf went from the entire roster, to just a few.

The champion grinned now as she reached for her mug again, taking a long swig of it. Setting the mug down, she continued.

Paige: Now, obviously my little list consisted of Jessica Tendonin, the first person to elevate the Alternative Championship, Adatu Urakih, the undefeated International Heavyweight Champion who previously won it by competing in a hellacious match and then walking back into the arena to win it in the very next match, and of course…Emily Desmond, a woman who redefined this championship in a way that nobody did before or likely will for a long time.

But you know…I am so fucking angry…so my choice is…none of them. You see, I’m laid up here, unable to defend it myself because of one person. Brian Kennedy did this to me. And because of that…I am choosing, no, I am DEMANDING that Brian Kennedy take this championship and defend it for me. You weren’t good enough to beat me in any of the three matches we had, so you decided to injure me. Now, you’ll defend my championship for me, and when I’m cleared to compete again, you will walk your ass down to MY ring and hand it back to me. And let’s be clear…you WILL return it. Now…my tea is getting warm. See you all…very soon.

The scene faded now as the champion smiled into her tea.

After retaining the World Heavyweight Championship, Paige Lewis was taken to a local emergency room, where it was revealed that the broken arm would require a full cast and she would miss several weeks in the ring. SCW General Manager Neela Shizeguma has decreed that Dario and Mr. Creed will get their shot at Overdrive 54, and that with Lewis not cleared to compete, she may elect a champion to defend the championship on her behalf. That person, if successful, will become Interim Champion, and will carry the championship until Lewis is cleared to compete and defend against Emily Desmond. If Dario or Mr. Creed win, they will become SCW Alternative Champion, and go on to defend against Emily Desmond.

As of this writing, Paige Lewis has not chosen/announced her champion.

Domination has come and passed, and it was a night full of blood, sweat, and tears. First, let’s note the removal of two matches. First, the Alternative Championship match was postponed, as a result of Emily Desmond testing positive for COVID-19. Next, the International Heavyweight Championship match was cancelled because of a contract dispute. That left us with four matches. The battle royale went off without a hitch. Dario and Mr. Creed were both eliminated at the same time, earning the Alternative Championship shot. Then, Scott Stonewall went over the rope, taking the North American Heavyweight Championship shot, which left Sickle with a shot at the International Heavyweight Championship.

Next, Hexgirl brutally defeated Dean Tyler in mere minutes, picking up a crucial Pay-Per-View win. In the first title match of the evening, Dark Tiger, Fathi, and Tyler Cross went toe to toe for the vacant SCW North American Heavyweight Championship. All three vied for an advantage, but in the end, Dark Tiger and Fathi could not withstand the efforts of Tyler Cross, and he left with the championship.

And then…the main event. It was said that Paige Lewis is unbeatable, and then…at Survival I, Jessica Tendonin rose to the occasion and went the distance, taking the then rookie champion to her limit and then further. At Survival I, Jessica Tendonin did what no one had ever done, and what no one has been able to do since, and defeated Paige Lewis for the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. 77 days later, Lewis would reclaim the championship and has held onto it since. That was three and a half years ago. During this time, Brian Kennedy, Tendonin’s tag team partner, began looking for a shot at the world championship. Going into Domination, Lewis had already defeated Kennedy twice in non-title singles competition. She has said she granted the match as a way to finally shut Kennedy up once and for all.

And so it came to be, Kennedy vs Lewis III, SCW World Heavyweight Championship on the line, the final confrontation between these two, and in a Seven Circles of Hell match, designed by Paige Lewis herself. Kennedy would pin Lewis in the first round, while Lewis took the following with a submission. Kennedy was automatically awarded the First Blood, as Lewis was already busted open. At this point, the score is 2-1 in Kennedy’s favor. After an assist from the new SCW North American Heavyweight Champion Tyler Cross, Kennedy took the Falls Count Anywhere round, bringing the score to 3-1. Kennedy needed one more round. Lewis needed all of them.

In the No Disqualification round, the final SCW Champion, Brian Brewster made an appearance, laying Kennedy out and setting Lewis up to win the round, which she did. At 3-2, Kennedy still only needed one more round. In the no Finishers round, it was revealed that the rule could be circumvented by using someone else finisher, and Lewis picked up the round, tying the score. The score is tied now, the fans are worked up into a frenzy, both superstars are exhausted. Going back and forth, Kennedy finally snapped and used a steel chair to break Lewis’ arm. This would incite a riot as fans rushed the ring before being held back. In the confusion, Lewis removed the cap to a ringpost, which was hallow, and pulled out a rifle that was loaded with a tranquilizer. With one hand, she shot Kennedy, and he stumbled to the mat and failed to answer the ten count. With the score now 4-3, the match was over and Lewis had retained the World Heavyweight Championship.

SCW has become aware that Emily Desmond, who was scheduled to appear at Domination in a rematch against Paige Lewis for the SCW Alternative Championship, has tested positive for COVID-19. As a result, the match has been postponed indefinitely, until such a time that Emily Desmond has recovered and been cleared to compete.

The card has been appropriately updated and Paige Lewis will instead only be defending the SCW World Heavyweight Championship. Paige Lewis had the following to say when alerted to the situation, “That’s tough, mate. I hope Emily Desmond recovers well and quickly. And when she does, her rematch will be waiting for her. Godspeed, Emily.”

The first signee of the new SCW, we’d like to welcome Hekate and we can’t wait to see her in action.

Alright, we’ve gone into the lab, took it all apart, had the mad scientist taste test it, and we’ve got it down. SCW is returning! See the dates below.

First Deadline: 4/22

Welcome back.

Hello,

I wanted to make a publicly visible list of the changes I’ve been making behind the scenes. These are meant to make this site more accessible, add features, and increase usage.

 

• Member Profiles
  • This is a feature that kind of already existed, but because of how the site was built, it wasn’t accessible. My goal is to continuing working on it, and make our profiles on this site as a sort of mini social media. Note, this is just for fun, and not part of competing here.
• Multiple Accounts/Account Switching
  • This is a feature I already had included, but never really announced. Personally, I like having separate accounts for my characters. You are NOT required to do so. I’ve also added a feature that allows you to easily switch accounts if you’d like to use it. Again, not a requirement.
• Formatting
  • This website currently supports plain text, html, native text editors, and BBCode. What this means is, if you can code it, you can post it. If you’d like to see you post before you post it, there is a preview function. This is also a good resource for BBCode editing.
• Mass Email
  • I’ve added a feature that allows me to email all users at once. I promise, I won’t be abusing this. Messages will come from scwefed@gmail.com. If you also use Gmail, you may get a yellow warning banner, stating that Gmail can’t confirm the message is really from that address. And the reason is because it technically isn’t, it’s from this site. But that’s all some tech mumbo jumbo that you don’t care about, lol. It’s a safe email.
• Site Security
  • This site used to get a LOT of spam. I mean dozens of comments a week. I had comments hidden, so you all probably didn’t see any of them. This week, I’ve spoken with our host about how to combat this. I’ve changed some settings and that should reduce/eliminate the spam. I’ve also purchased some protection (cue the APA theme music) to help other threats that may exist. I’ve also had our SSL Certificate updated, so that your computer and antivirus don’t tell you the site is unsafe!
• Projects
  • There are a few things I’m working on currently. While they aren’t ready to unveil, I can tell you about them. To build a excitement. No but really, I do want to tell you about them. First, a ‘Champions’ page has always been in the works. It’s a project I kept starting and not finishing. Sure, I have the google sheets document that shows all of our champions and automatically calculates length, but having something on the site would be nice, too, right? I am also working on having integrated forums. You would not need to sign up for a new site or anything. I know efeds and boards go hand in hand, and have for a long time. But, SCW has almost always been a place to post promos and results and not a lot else. With this site being designed to have promos posted to the main page, as well as cards and results being posted here, there wasn’t a lot of reason to have a separate forum. But, let’s see if the integrated forum project takes off.

So, that’s pretty much it for now. Keep an eye out for more updates and changes.

Life has been…interesting, the last few years.  I had originally planned to reopen SCW in 2020. But, I started working at a hospital and then the pandemic hit. And it was a major hospital. They have campuses around the world. So, when this thing hit, I had NO extra time, and I knew it would be a disservice to this federation as well as though who came here to write. So I put it off again. Now, I’m working from home and have a whole set up. And, since I’ll be sitting at my desk all day anyway, I can work on writing. That, coupled with renewed interest, I think it’s the perfect time to give this another go.

 

So, we are aiming for mid April. Please keep an eye out for more updates.
