How should themes be counted on this site?

Post by BretC »

I noticed that some wrestlers theme counts are different than others on how they are counted. Obviously there should be only 1 way to count them and not in 3 different ways like I see a few times around here. The 3 ways I see it is the following: I will use Danny Basham's for examples.

1. The wrestler will have every theme song he entered whether it was by himself/herself, tag team or stable no matter what. For example:

1. (Basham Brothers 1st Theme)
2. (Basham Brothers 2nd Theme)
3. (Basham Brothers 3rd Theme)
4. (Basham Brothers 4th Theme)
5. (Basham Brothers 5th Theme)
6. (Basham Brothers 6th Theme)
7. (Basham Brothers 7th Theme)
8. (Basham Brothers 8th Theme)
9. "Do Or Die" (2) - Bruton

2. The wrestler will have themes he used in ONLY single matches but will count Tag Team, and Stable themes he used in Singles action. For Example:

1. (Basham Brothers 1st Theme)
2. (Basham Brothers 5th theme)
3. (Basham Brothers 7th Theme)
4. "Do Or Die" (2) - Bruton

3. The wrestler will have themes he used by himself, and not count Tag and Stable themes. For Example:

1. "Do Or Die" (2) - Bruton

So obviously this has to be fixed, I honestly don't care which out of the 3 will be used on the site but it has to be counted only by 1 way.

I personally prefer option #3. That's how I label my collection.

I think option two is best. If they come out to their tag team or stable theme in a singles match, although they may be representing their tag team or stable, it's still a one-on-one match and should be counted as a singles theme. Just my opinion.

Option #2 seems the most reasonable for me.

#2

We need to count the themes they used, and in my opinion, counting that way is the best to do.

I agree. I think option #2 is the best one. If they were announced to the ring to compete, whether it was a singles match or not, that theme song should be counted, no matter if it's a tag team or stables theme. The first option doesn't make sense because if a wrestler that was a tag team competitor never wrestled a singles match, he shouldn't have a singles theme count, but if he did wrestle a singles match and he used one of the tag themes as his own, then he should. This is the same reason why Option #3 doesn't work either. So, I think Option #2 is the best way to organize everything. It makes the most sense, especially with guys like Heath Slater & Justin Gabriel, who have had so many themes in over a year because of all of the changes in the Corre & Nexus themes. I also think that all gimmicks should count together, no matter if it was acknowledged that the person was the previous alias.

Theme Counts are stupid anyway, so 3 should be done, counting Tag Team Themes is pointless.

I think Tag and Stable themes need different counts. NXT themes shouldn't count at all unless it's a legit singles theme, not a pros.

Other than that above I personally would rather a fresh new theme labeling format like this with no counts but leave the counts written on the site for those who prefer to label them manually with theme counts. ;)

Library - Artist - Title (Wrestler or Event Edit #).mp3

I personally hate the current labeling format of John Smith 1st.mp3 that we currently have and I think it's time for a change in tag formatting after the change that we started within the last week revamping the quality of stuff.

I honestly think a labeling format change is more important which is why I talked about it in the last post through detail.

#3 however for the main topic as Tags, Stables and NXT need their own counts, not Tag, Stable or NXT themes being put in the singles.

But put this into perspective. If everyone changes their vote to 3 by the time a poll gets added to this thread if at all and your votes get tallied there will be no clutter with double themes anymore giving Xylot's server some more themes space.

It looks like more people prefer option #2 however out of all the 3 choices that one is tricky because we gotta watch like lots and lots of matches to get most of these counts correct, or should we even need counts to begin with?
