  1. Does anyone else have any go to tag teams they like to create that would seem bizarre to anyone else? I'm a CVerse player so mine below are fro there, but this is open to whatever people play. In '16 I loved teaming Colin Picalo and Cain Carlile together, (with Marbella managing them) as an odd couple style team, Picalo the tightly wound punk contradicted by fun loving, sci-fi geek Carlile. Gave them the name Alternative Coding and they were the ultimate underdog come success story tag for my wee British indy fed. Haven't played a UK save in 2020 yet but will do at some point. In 2020 I've been pairing up Austin Smooth with Prime Time Jack Pryde with the audacious moniker The Greatest Team To Ever Live. Probably not too bizarre a duo given their similar gimmicks. Finally in my old TCW save I had Frankie Perez as Kill Switch paired with Magnum Kobe, can't remember the name now but also featured Joshua Taylor as a tag-along. So yeah, what wacky tags have people ended up with in their time?
  2. Awesome, let me know how it works out for you. Glad you liked it. And wow, 10 years?! That's dedication. What's the landscape like that far in?
  3. <p>Second time playing as TCW (Previous 2/3 year save became pretty wild with own broadcaster etc), and got to say they have drawn me into the game so much. My 2016 experience was limited to making my own workers and companies, and exclusively in the UK region, so 2020 has been my first real detailed exploration of what already exists in the C-Verse outside the 2016 UK indies. (Gauge was available there in 16 and looking him up is what brought me to TCW).</p><p> </p><p> Trying to take a more streamlined approach to this save, slower and more realistic decisions, though skewed to my style preferences. Player character is Ross Henry who has bought out the company to save and rebuild it, so excuse for me to change style and focus of company in-game. Headed for a wrestling nerd nirvana product and really wanting to develop a strong tag team division. </p><p> </p><p> Short term I've just had Hawkins beat Andrews at Malice for the World title, story reason for bringing it forward that TCW were on the verge of closure so this was billed as the last ever event. Destiny roll (think I'm using that term correctly) gave me great chemistry between Hawkins and Andrews, so the match hit high 80s rating. PPV closed with the two acting shocked as Ross Henry comes out and announces hes bought TCW - in my head it was this epic moment with him saying "see you next tuesday" and winking to the camera, but game decided to hinder it (if only slightly) with his gimmick getting an awful rating.</p><p> </p><p> Thrust Gauge into the Chord/Bach storyline after dispatching of Benny quickly, with Gauge and Chord aligning. Bach won the TV title at Malice in a triple threat by pinning Chord to cause a slight tension between the new team, but that's the first micro-seed in what will be a split between them much, much further down the line. </p><p> </p><p> King Of Kings has been swapped with Battleground to go on in March, I personally can't abide by the idea of six months of waiting for the blow up match. To me it devalues every PPV between the tournament win and Total Mayhem, if I were a fan of the show I'd consider it a forgone conclusion that the champ was retaining from November up until Mayhem, so why would I waste time and money investing in forgone conclusion PPVs between now and then? In game story of course being that Henry changes it.</p><p> </p><p> That leads to my current mid-term plans of having Bach win in the tournament finals as the end to the Chord feud (beating Greg in the semis). Not typically a fan of TV titles so the plan was to have him vacate the title post-win and quietly retire it before bringing back the International championship. But having read this forum I've seen a brilliant post about having the TV Title champ try to go 52 in 52 defending the title every week for a year, so I may bring it back with those intentions as a way of getting lower tier talent over. </p><p> </p><p> This will lead to a Bach/Hawkins/Andrews Total Mayhem main event, though given Bach is declining and Andrews/Hawkins are so good one on one, I'm not as confident in that idea anymore. Plan is for Hawkins to retain, that way Bach gets the moment in the sun via King Of Kings and TM main event, without ever relying on him to carry us for an extended period while progressively getting worse. </p><p> </p><p> Chord and Gauge will become a tag team and win the tag titles at Total Mayhem to go on an epic run with the straps. I think they're written to be a team together given the history of their fathers, until they can go on main event solos runs. Funnily enough I'd given them the team name of The Heritage, which someone else has already done! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Plan is to have Chord win the big one at Total Mayhem 25 for the first time given Rip's history, as guys on here have pointed out.</p><p> </p><p> This way I can get those tag titles knocking around the top of the card, maybe even a couple of main event PPV matches if given the right opponents, while using the time to boost a respectable tag division beneath them. I've already signed The Ring Generals and The Night Terrors, just waiting for The American Cobras (who got me into CVerse tag team wrestling) to drop the COTT titles before pouncing on them. </p><p> </p><p> I've got plans to sign Youngman as an heir to the Sinner Society, him and Peak made a good pairing (Peak as manager) in my original save so keen to recreate that. Beaumont was convinced to work in US and I've now got him on a developmental at MAW - thanks to various posts in this thread suggesting him. (Slightly concerned about the potential growth rate for guys there as MAW only run monthly events, but I'm reluctant to go down child co and/or broadcaster route as its just too easy/gamey for my liking.)</p><p> </p><p> Anyway, TL;DR: I'm playing a save with TCW <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>
  4. Hi all, I have a couple of requests for stable logos, all CVerse based if anyone's interested. Brief descriptions given to hopefully inspire, as well as some very, very poor attempts by me a while back - I think I used MS Paint... But I'm really not precious about them, feel free to completely disregard and go with your own muses! House Of Cards: A collection of workers united by their heel manager to dominate every division within a company. Workers are typically the strong, silent type, used by the vocal manager to intimidate authority figures to get what he wants. All business, suits and serious kind of stable. Children Of The Damned: Very conspiracy theorist, anti-Capitalism, anti-establishment, down with patriarchy type of cult. Workers have 'freed' themselves of their traditional names used by normal 'sheeple' in favour of identifying only as single letters. Visually presented not too dissimilar to AEW's Dark Order (masks, lack of identity, etc). The Samoan Unit: Stable consisting of Akima Brave, Rhino Umaga, Samoan Machine and Toma, essentially a combination of their two teams. Link to my attempt: https://imgur.com/a/kykqQJV Squared Circle Rebellion Squad: An alternative culture group, a bunch of rebels without a cause. Link to my attempt: https://imgur.com/a/mB1HP0c The Heritage: A collection of second generation wrestlers who deem themselves the future of the business, entitled bunch who think the success of their fathers (and mothers) means they should be the main players of the company. Link to my attempt: https://imgur.com/a/n9TvF6q If anyone wants to tackle these, I would greatly appreciate it.
