Mid Atlantic Wrestling - February 2008 (CV2005 Data) I've poisoned a portion of my locker room. I had to go and try out the 'dirty doctor' feature in this save to see what happens. Some of my favorite workers are on the juice and I'm worried its going to have deathly consequences. I had to do some research and look at my workers in the editor. American Patriot (my go-to top face of MAW) is at 40% steroid use. Findlay O'Farraday at 25% and Casey Valentine at 30%. Now, the one that scares the absolute crap out of me and I'm legitimately fearing for his life: Steven Parker (90%). All of these guys have improved hand over fist. Valentine has jumped up 6+ points in almost all major categories since April of 2007 (when he debuted). Has anyone done the same thing? Can I right this terrible wrong?

Playing as MAW using CV2005 data. Bruce The Giant had one too many nights with prostitutes and BHOTWG didn't want anything to do with it in January 2006. Fast forward to September 2007 and he officially announces his retirement from professional wrestling at the age of 36. The scandal ruined his career and he couldn't recover from it. I'm not so sure what the legality is over in Japan, but I'd say he didn't know what he was doing was wrong. Plead the Charlie Sheen defense, he paid them to leave.

Restarted a CV2005 game using the updated data as MAW. First two shows, Rip Chord lends psychology pointers to Antonio. He jumped from 42 to 45 and 45 to 48 after each backstage incident. I don't think I noticed this before now. Awesome!

I'm extremely excited for this one. I love playing games that last for a decade or more and I love smaller promotions. This is the database for me. Looking forward to seeing this when its done. You have every CV lover in your corner right now, buddy!

This is amazing to hear. I can't wait to book me some Championship Wrestling From Boston! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

<p>I'd never seen this before. Playing as MAW using CV2005 data. </p><p> </p><p> <span>http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/rc05_zpslymwousd.jpg</span></p>

Having used this to install The Golden Age, I can say that this is definitely the future for how we install mods. Absolutely fantastic. Saves an incredible amount of time. Awesome work putting this thing out!

<p>Ernest Youngman and Tennessee William feuding over the Mid Atlantic Championship throughout 2019 has given me some of the best match ratings I've ever booked as a small company. They have no chemistry (positive or negative) and have ranged in matches from B (82) to A (92). Youngman has been the top face for two years. He's been the MAW Figurehead for 1 year, 4 months. Attendance is up 4% and merchandise is up 10%.</p><p> </p><p> They've both been with MAW for awhile now. Youngman has 81 popularity in the Mid Atlantic and William has a 78. Youngman only works for MAW and NYCW. I edited his profile to be loyal to MAW. I wanted a figurehead and I didn't want to lose them, so he's the man. Every time he signs with a bigger company (from other saves) he never gets used properly. So why not keep him somewhere he's actually needed? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

When I start my MAW game (which I recently restarted after seeing how many patches we've gone through) I always get rid of Fair, Earnest, and Forthdyke-Hume. You can hire a cheaper referee and you don't even need an announcer or colour commentator when your show isn't being shown on a broadcaster. You don't need to splurge on talent. Get a few top guys and fill the card with what you have left. Replace them as they get stolen. Rinse and repeat for years.</p>

This happened in my game in 2019, although it was USPW who bought them out.

Can't really say this is much of a surprise. He's 40-years old and has a pretty beat up body. He can't handle their style of wrestling anymore. That's OK, we'll take our American Patriot back in MAW. Pumped! http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/patriothome_zpspowv3hze.jpg

After this happened to Syd Collier, his psychology went up 4 points. Pretty big jump from one match.

I fired Marina. I was able to cancel out Antonio's simmering tension (no relationship now) with referee Eugene Williams by doing a positive meddling interaction. On to the next one!

MAW at Regional. Just $220/PPA deal. So she wouldn't be much of a loss at all. At this point I have to try and mend all of those relationships. I just tried to fix one between Antonio and Brother Grimm (backfired, they strongly dislike each other as opposed to tension now). Maybe I'd be better off leaving the tension (it isn't affecting my backstage due to so many other positives) until they wear off on their own.

Wow, just wow! A nobody manager causing issues between one of my main event attractions and 9 other workers! I'm thinking it might be time to let the pretty lady to go. http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/Capture_zps1wk3kxqc.jpg

That's awesome. Glad to hear that! Sounds like I could probably pull the trigger as soon as I feel comfortable enough. Still worried to put it on someone who will bail, but Xavi has been with us for years and he's been the unofficial figurehead for two years at this point. I have a feeling that if I put the label on him, other companies will jump at the chance to hurt me. That's why I need to throw it on someone whose loyal to MAW.

Have you placed a figurehead who wasn't completely set to be one? That's been my concern in my MAW game. I'd ideally like to get one of my top guys loyal to MAW (so he won't leave) and make him the figurehead (Xavi Ferrera comes to mind right now). He has everything he needs but his star quality is a little low. I haven't pulled the trigger on any figurehead (I would have done American Patriot and Ernest Youngman at different times but they both weren't completely set to do it yet). Obviously I'm worried to appoint a figurehead who will be snatched up by a bigger company, but I'm even more worried about placing a figurehead who will be a massive flop. I'd rather not have one and get none of the positives / negatives, as opposed to having one and getting the negatives from it.

Mid Atlantic Wrestling - December 2022 Size (Popularity): Mid Atlantic (57; C-), Tri State (33; E+), Great Lakes (23 E-), South East (22, E-), New England (13; F+), Mid South & Mid West (9; F) Finances: $1,912,454 From the beginning of 2016 until the very end of 2019 we ran one show a month. Starting in January 2020 we broke into the Tri State area, running two shows a month. I just recently started to run a third show in the Great Lakes region as of September 2022. We make $20-30k a month. I tweaked the product to suit how I like to book when I started the game. Product: Key Feature: Traditional, Low: Modern, Hardcore, Pure; Match Intensity/Danger 30/30; Match Ratio 80/80; Spinal-impact moves allowed; High risk moves allowed Greg Gauge was obviously the initial focal point of the company. He held the World Heavyweight title until he left for USPW in June of 2016 (he's still with them). Remus took over the reigns when he departed for better things. Roderick has been with us for the entirety, besides a 9-month period when I couldn't re-sign him due to an Owner Goal (no Cruiserweights). I picked him back up the day the goal expired. MAW was built around the Remus / Gauge feud until mid-2016 when Gauge left. Brandon Smith came back to MAW to portray his American Patriot gimmick and ended Roderick’s reign of terror in January 2017. Patriot would hold the title until BHOTWG snatched him in November 2017. By then, Ernest Youngman was the next man in line to carry the torch. Ernest held the title from November 2017 until July 2019. He continuously carried his opponents to better matches. His performance would outshine everyone he worked with for more than two and a half years. SWF let Spencer Spade leave in early 2019 and I grabbed him (knowing it would be short lived). He was the perfect guy to end Youngman’s reign. Spade was with us from May 2019 to October 2019 (when he went to CGC). From June to September, Spade and Youngman put on some of the best matches I had booked to that point (78 to 84 range). I pulled the trigger and put the belt on Spade in July 2019. He held it until the night before his contract expired in September 2019. Ernest would run with it as the top heel in MAW until he signed with USPW in June of 2021. Xavi Ferrera has held the title ever since as the top babyface in the company. Champions: MAW World Heavyweight (100; A*) - Xavi Ferrera Mid Atlantic Regional (100; A*) - Lenny Brown MAW World Tag Team (75; B-) - The Architect & Solomon Gold I’m excited. Growth has been good over the past 6 years, 11 months. I’m hopeful that we’ll be able to negotiate with a broadcaster (National Pride TV) when we have 35% popularity in the Tri State and Great Lakes regions. I know in TEW2013, you had to have 35% popularity in three regions in the US to negotiate with them, so hopefully that is the same even with the change in system.

Really, ladies? I was hoping your strong friendship I created (meddled) was going to cause positive things. http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/bitches_zpsgwbhlhca.jpg

This game is awesome! Popped up during the latest Dynamite Express tag title match. http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/collier_zps9aemnyrn.jpg Just looked at his stats and Psychology went from a 76 pre-match to an 80 post-match.

Awesome work. Love the blue and green ones.

<p>This is awesome! Monty Trescarde left SWF in May 2020 after being stuck in the low-midcard. Fast forward to March 2021 and he's heading back to SWF after building himself back up in MAW (some great matches with Ernest Youngman). I was hoping he'd do the job before leaving for SWF and I was really hoping I wouldn't have to do anything to persuade him to put someone over. Well, Rob DaLay took care of that. </p><p> </p><p> <span>http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/intimidation_zpsim5dccyr.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p> Had no idea this could even happen.

Poor Kyle Rhodes, curious to see who his replacement will be... January 2018: http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/tcwceo_zpslvwiofz9.jpg

I know that a small company like MAW shouldn't risk putting a Figurehead in place with so much turnover... but man does this temp the heck out of me! http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/patriotfigurehead_zpstaz8fcoc.jpg

Never expected Roderick to make a comment like that. As the newly crowned COTT World Heavyweight Champion, he must feel like its his place to say something! http://i1130.photobucket.com/albums/m521/Logan_Rodzen/remusopinion_zps46qajhww.jpg
