Tn Tombstone Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 There are a few MD that can shoot their own match well, I am not one of them. Welcome to the world of MD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostVaquero Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I have been blessed with having a World Champ take a look over my stages and descriptions and working out language etc. It has really helped A LOT. I love writing stages and looking at what others have done and going HEY! That's neat! and maybe incorporating that into a set. Had on MD who managed to SDQ twice on his own stages which was of course a MDQ. Poor guy but he took it in the cowboy way, put his stuff away and then helped out the rest of the match.

MizPete Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Don't worry about it, Sugar. If they don't like your stages, you're gonna get feedback. We live and learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Hills Barb Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 I tried giving the job away several times. Darn thing's like a boomerang. It keeps coming back. I did have one hearty soul step up last year. Now he does the monthly matches and I do the state match. It has really made my life so much easier and made the MD job less stressful. He's doing a terrific job and loves doing it and I am so grateful for his help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnWesleyHardin Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 I get to write the match for Fort Des Moines Rangers in August. Wouldn't be surprised if a few stages will seem familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the world of MD. Yep, Two years in a row I got a P in the match that I was MD. You worry too much about this or that prop failing, someone bitc, I mean suggesting that a stage was too hard to shoot. and 1,000 other problems that could happen.
