General
One of my main online hobbies is being involved as a player in an e-fed, which is like fantasy pro-wrestling in a sense. I've never ventured out to actually start up a new fed on my own (save for one attempt that ended before the first card due to lack of enough applicants). I intend to change that soon, but the reason why I'm writing about it here is because this new idea I have involves anthropomorphic (or furry, blah blah) characters as the participants, and... I'm looking to see if there will be enough people willing to be involved in it.
The premise of playing in an e-fed is simple. When a 'card' comes up showing your character is going to be fighting a match against another character, that means you will be competing against that character's player to win the match. You can write simple 'trash-talk' posts in the forum board called promos (as long as they're done ICly! lol), or involve your character in a story plot, which is preferable. I'll write up sample posts in the forums to give new people an idea on what to expect, basically. E-fedding is sort of like role-playing after all, in some minor sense.
Then by the writing deadline, either me or a backup judge will compare the two writing attempts (can be just one post against another or multiple posts) and whichever is the most interesting or best is the winner of the match. I will then write up the match, pitting the two characters together like in a wrestling match and we have the winner.
I have been playing in an e-fed since 2001, and I feel I have the patience and expertise to start one on my own. I just need players.

I also know a friend who might be interested. He has an...uh...boxing fetish...
Basically all it takes to win a match is to simply write a better RP set of posts and the fight writer (in this case, myself) will take care of the rest.
