World Armwrestling League:

” WAL/Game of Arms UPDATE!

PULLERS: This is to confirm that Game of Arms will still shoot at WAL Atlantic City, NJ. As many of you know, AMC decided last week to shut down its reality TV business. The good news is there seems to be a lot of heat behind GOA, and it’s looking good that they’ll end up at an even BIGGER network soon! In the meantime, Undertow Films will produce an episode at the WAL tournament.

This announcement doesn’t have much effect on how the tournament will run, but it will mean the below guidelines about logos and releases DO STILL APPLY.

The WAL is excited to host Game of Arms at our event in support of the sport – it’s a great chance to give arm wrestling some much deserved exposure and promote all of you and the WAL.

Thanks again, and as always keep an eye on this page for updates – and keep training.

Pull hard,
WAL

– – – – –

**The Atlantic City event will start at NOON, until approximately 8pm.

Logo and Release Guidelines:
1. Because everyone in the venue could find themselves on camera for Game of Arms, ALL ATTENDEES will need to sign a one-off appearance release for Undertow Films (the show’s producer), to appear on TV. Additionally, everyone will need to sign the standard WAL appearance release. If you CANNOT sign a release to appear on an episode of TV, you will not be allowed into the venue.

2. GOA operates on a strict logo-control policy. ALL logos on apparel, bags, etc. or any signage other than WAL, will need to be covered or moved out of the line of sight of cameras. Please — WEAR LOGO-FREE CLOTHING. We mean plain clothes or a WAL shirt — no UnderArmour logo, no emblem for a cousin’s car dealership, no Nike swoosh — NOTHING should be on your shirt, hat, etc, for shooting purposes. Not even artwork from an Affliction T-shirt or something like it – it’s all copyrighted. ”

Devon Larratt vs. Shawn Lattimer - WAL Chicago - 23 August 2014

VIDEOS: WAL Atlantic City is rolling forward full-speed-ahead

World Armwrestling League:

Pullers: Like many of you, we at the WAL got some unexpected news last night about AMC’s decision to no longer produce shows in the reality genre. Unfortunately Game of Arms was part of that corporate repositioning. While we regret the loss of the exposure for the sport, we want to make one thing crystal clear: the WAL is rolling forward full-speed-ahead to keep bringing you the biggest arm-wrestling tournaments in the country. Our goal has been and will continue to be one thing only: to build the largest, most badass arm-wrestling league in the land.

We want to be clear about a couple of things: last night’s news has obvious potential impacts on our recent announcement that the show would shoot at WAL Atlantic City. However, we don’t have many answers yet. The show may still shoot for a while, including at WAL, and the footage may still air on a new network – we simply don’t know yet.

But regardless of what cameras are there, Atlantic City is shaping up to be a massive, exciting tournament to see who can claim the final qualifying spots for the New Orleans WAL Championship. There’s more than $35,000 on the line at the Taj Mahal, and $150,000 more in New Orleans up for grabs for whoever can take it.

As a reminder of the kind of action we generate at these events, below are a couple of videos to get your blood pumping.

Keep an eye out on our Facebook and Web pages for more updates as we get them, and we’ll see you in Atlantic City.
Train hard. Your opponents certainly will.

On 11 September 2014, AMC announced a second season of Game of Arms: ‘Game of Arms’ Renewed for Season 2 by AMC.
Yesterday 09 October 2014, less than 1 month after the initial announcement, AMC changed the direction and cancelled the second season of “Game of Arms” together with three new unscripted series it ordered in May.
1. AMC Exits Unscripted Programming To Focus On Scripted Series; ‘Talking Dead’ & ‘Comic Book Men’ To Continue
2. AMC Scraps Second Season of ‘Game of Arms,’ Other Shows as Cabler Reconsiders Unscripted Genre
We can only hope that Undertow Films – the Production Company of Game of Arms, will find a new TV Network interested to continue with season 2 of Game of Arms.

This is just the last part of a bigger article entitled Crisis WAF. Doping control – armsport-rus.ru │ Google Translate:

” I should say that the organization of doping control in WAF is a pretty dark story.

Understand how much really worth one sample, who collects the sample, whether the license WADA laboratories, which makes the analysis of whether all samples are given for validation, etc., is almost impossible.

Why in Brazil, America, Lithuania, all samples were clean, but at the same time in other championships caught dozens of offenders?

And what if, doping tests are not echoed in the laboratory for testing, and the money is safely written off? It may well be.

Who took the tests at the world championships in Lithuania? There is evidence that it was the doctors from Bulgaria. We have great faith in the objectivity of forthcoming research sample data! Indeed, in Bulgaria there is no WADA accredited laboratory! Whether the right to carry out sampling some doctors and transfer (where ?, in some lab?) These samples to others? ”
