How seriously do you take the level of reaction during your matches? As in is it important.


Would you rather win a big match with no reaction or would you want to win a match with a big reaction but not that big of a storyline or character impact?

I get angry when I don't get a reaction so I guess I do take it very seriously. I'd rather get any win with a big reaction.

I feel like reaction is important, but crowds these days are so poor... it kinda doesn't matter anyway.

Not being able to get to shows a fair bit, I never know how the crowd reacts to me... although, more often than not, when I have been in chat for a match of mine, it's been fairly dead so...

It's also sad to see that when writers create a really creative and cool entrance at a FPV for somebody and the crowd doesn't react to it at all. I can understand why Demon gets frustrated.

I want a crowd to be creative

I meant Kjors

Its always nice and appreciated to get a reaction. Large/genuine reactions always enhance the show. Its a bit infuriating when people dont understand that the show is the only reason efeds exist, but i keep my complaints about it to myself much more often than i used to because it doesnt matter as much to me anymore.

I remember my first low ass reaction... it kinda hurt

We all know my feelings towards crowd reactions.

I think most of us would love a great reaction, whether it be boo's or woo's. It senses a level of respect to me and if they have actually been following the hard work I've done on the promo page or any other activity. So yeah, I find great reactions along with winning rewarding to say the least, as well as losing a match with a great reaction too.

I see. Well I've always enjoyed a good crowd reaction, but at the same time I don't really put that much stock into them since they're not a good representation of work and ability.

Great reaction is great and all, but at the end of the day if you win a big match and you are happy then its all that matters

A big match with no reaction. The crowds reaction doesn't impact me inscript. But a good crowd would be cool.

I find it selfish when people don't react and just sit in the chat not understanding how important chat activity is to an efed, and I take it seriously during anyone's match.

What I hate the most are not the people who don't understand, but the people who are dead during shows or leave chat because a show is coming up and they don't want to react. I can understand having to leave to do something like get food, shower, etc. but seriously, why come to chat when the banner says it's show time and not react when it's pretty much the main thing you SHOULD be doing. Another thing is when people have side conversations during a show. JUST PM eachother if you don't give a shit about the show. Plus it show's appreciation to the writers who take time out of their lives which they could spend doing something else writing and putting up a show for you, the least you could do is humor them for an hour or two with either WOOOOOOOOOOO or BOOOOOOOOOO or NOISACNAQBNUONCOJNCUWBFYIQJKLSAMNOXMPDW...just had to get that off my chest.

I'd prefer if people react when I'm having a match, sure. But hey, if I don't react for theirs, I'm definitely not going to expect them to react to mine. Sometimes, I just don't feel like cheering for a live show. That's all it really comes down to. If I feel motivated, or if I feel there's a lot going into it, I'll give my best effort. If I don't, I won't. It's that simple.

I don't take it too seriously.. I wish people would cheer or boo me more nonetheless because I am always active for shows regardless who's match is on WHEN I am there of course. I'm not respected by many people perhaps that is why I always get mediocre reactions idk.

you get one of the best reactions actually.

See: Reasonable Doubt 2014

The former fuckin blew, so I'll go with the latter...

Tbh I don't really pay attention to my reactions I always get some type of negative vibes and take them to heart for some odd reason but i may have grown out of that lol but i mostly read the match tho

I be like "Wake y'all asses up and react" lol but it doesn't anger me if they don't. As long as I'm successful in the match itself, it's all good

Live reactions mean just about nothing anymore (to me at least). I could give, as robbie would say, negative 6 fucks about that shit now. Dont let other people validate the worth of your matches / relevance

I don't take it that seriously. I've never cared for getting a reaction since most people would rather just get to their match/segment and are just giving a reaction to speed up the show. I do like when stuff on live shows sparks actual conversations though and I don't see why anyone sees anything wrong with it. I'd understand if the show was done by word of mouth and we could potentially miss something important but it's not. If we miss something then we can scroll up to see what we missed. It really isn't that hard.

So yeah, I don't really care if I'm booed, cheered or don't get a reaction. As long as I have a good match/segment and a decent sense of direction for my character then I'm happy.
