Well crap. Yeah they are which really sucks because I remember them being there. I had an unexpected computer restart in the middle and from the looks of things I lost a segment entirely. I rewrote it and put it back into the show above because it's kinda important story wise so if you go back now you should be able to see it.

Joanne: "I hope you enjoyed a word from our sponsors because they keep the lights on. Now my next guest is Costal Zone owner and CEO Cliff Anderson. Say 'hi' Cliff." Cliff: "Hi Cliff!" Joanne: "Very cute. The reason why I reached out to you is that I heard there is exciting news for Confedracy of the Territories, is that true?" Cliff: "Now now, Joanne. I am sworn to secrecy and there is no way I can present anything before an official announcement is made." Joanne: "Well that's unfortunate because I was hoping..." Cliff: "Alright if you insist... WE'RE EXPANDING!" Joanne: "Easy on the volume there Cliff. You're going to blow out my producer's eardrums." Cliff: "Oh, sorry about that Joanne." Joanne: "It's okay, Cliff. So expanding you say?" Cliff: "Yes, of course. In more ways than one. First of all we've finalized agreements to bring in FCW and CILL into the fold. A unanimous vote I might add." Joanne: "Exciting. I know COTT has been courting FCW for awhile. What's changed in the past few years?" Cliff: "IPW of all things. It turns out that Gil Thomas and Puerto Rican Power had some business arrangements on the side and using Gil as a middleman we were finally able to have a sit down with them and hammer out a deal to everyone's satisfaction." Joanne: "And CILL?" Cliff: "Well that was because of the Phoenixes. Phoenixsi? Phoneixesses? Well let's just say the original Phoenix and El Maestro over at CILL go way back and with the surge in EILL they are looking for a leg up to support one another and COTT is the best way to help get a boost to stand against the titans in the industry." Joanne: "I see. There has been a lot of news coming out of that lately with the shakeup of TCW outpacing SWF. It looks like without Richard Eisen at the helm SWF the once dominant Supreme Wrestling is really struggling." Cliff: "Or maybe the Eisens are finally having to pay their taxes like the rest of us. Still I wouldn't count them out." Joanne: "How nice of you to say. So you said that COTT was expanding in several ways. Did you just mean with new new companies or...?" Cliff: "Oh yeah! I can't believe I almost forgot the biggest secret of all." Joanne: "Well if you're supposed to keep it secret maybe you should..." Cliff: "Oh whatever. WE'RE ADDING A WOMEN'S TITLE! AND QAW!" Joanne: "Watch the decibels! Alright Cliff there's a lot to unpack there. Let's take it one at a time for our listeners. Tell me about the Women's Title." Cliff: "We will be introducing the official COTT Women's Championship title into the territories. Now it should be noted that none of the other COTT titles are restricted to just men. We might look into a Men's title in the future as not every promotion has women and men on their roster but for now we're running with a women's championship title and we can see how that goes." Joanne: "That is exciting news." Cliff: "I would imagine you'd say so." Joanne: "Tell me about the Queens of American Wrestling then." Cliff: "Everyone is excited for the surge in women's wrestling. CZCW and ACPW are both fully integrated while both CILL and OLLIE have women's divisions. We have been discussing adding a stronger focus on women within COTT and now Phoenix and I were finally able to pull the trigger on it." Joanne: "Let me do the math here. ACPW, OLLIE, CZCW and CILL have women's wrestlinger while FCW, MAW, NYCW, IPW, and PSW don't . Obviously this wasn't a vote straight down ideological lines." Cliff: "I...I don't wish to start any rumors but I will say that there has been a lot of turnover over the past four years in companies resistant to a Women's title. Without naming any names several owners have turned their companies over to new representation that has altered the voting lines. Phoenix and I approached it as a bundled package. If we add a Women's title, we can entice QAW into the fold and that helped persuade some of the other holdouts." Joanne: "Fascinating. Will there be any pressure for other companies to add a women's division? I know a lot of fans have been looking at MAW as the pioneer in territory wrestling and are hoping they can..." Cliff: "Let me stop you right there. The COTT council has no interest in telling anyone how to run their business. We are here to help one another. Joanne: "One last question. Recently the COTT tag team titles were picked up by Chess Maniac and El Hijo de Espada Roja. How does Chess Maniac's normal tag team partner, Disturbed, feel about not being part of the title run?" Cliff: "I don't know, you'll have to ask them. Why not invite them next time they're in town?" Joanne: "I'll have to consider it. Alright my producer is signalling that it's time for another break. Introducing the products nad services that help keep us on the air."

Like that?

Sure thing. ???

You can also just Save As and it allows you to change the file type to .jpg No paint required if you have GIMP.

To go into more details 1) Mods are just databases. They don't impact the underlying functions of the game but are just a collection of workers/companies etc. 2) When a new game is started the game sets up a copy of the database and dumps it into the save file. That is that long loading time when you start a new game, it's copying the database. 3) With that copy it saves all the changes that happens to the game world during your game. Worker's stats improve? Saved to this DB copy. A new contract is signed? Saved to the copy. 4) Mod updates are just database changes. Worker stats are tweaked, pictures get linked, workers get added etc. So 9 times out of 10, if you want to play an updated database you'll need to start a new game. If it's updates to angles or narratives or new workers you can import them to an existing game but if it is updates to existing workers or companies then there isn't much you can do.

More stable requests....

If there are difficulty concerns maybe add it as a toggable feature. Turn broadcaster/company caps off. I agree that pop caps too high on tiny broadcasters.

Well done. I hate it.

Luther and Anslem shout about how Pierrot is broken as Pierrot has completely stopped moving at that point.</p><p> </p><p> Then Azathoth turns and puts his big hands on Babau. Now it is Babau's turn as he is whipped into the turnbuckle before Azathoth picks up the steel stairs and starts battering Babau bloody with it. At least it looks like he is bleeding underneath his mask from the blood dripping down. Moroi goes to stop Azathoth and tries pointing at Pierrot but Melvin interferes and starts laughing as he holds Moroi back. Azathoth sends Babau and a steel chair into the ring and hits a Nuclear Chaos Powerbomb on Babau right onto the steel chair before picking up the win.</p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-size:8px;"><em>Idaho's Note: I remember watching this but now I can't seem to find any notes on it.

Azathoth picks up Babau and delivers another giant powerbomb onto the chair. Moroi breaks free of Melvin and rushes into the ring only to get clotheslined and powerbombed by Azathoth. Melvin is giggling as he grabs Pierrot and rolls him into the ring and he too is powerbombed. Hellech rushes in to save his partner and is bombed as well. Everyone is crumpled and broken except for Melvin. Laughing hysterically he steps into the ring and submits himself to Azathoth, arms out wide as he accepts a Nuclear Chaos powerbomb as well. </p><p> </p><p> Azathoth roars and the locker room pours out to once again contain the demonic monster of IPW.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Azathoth destroys the Night Terrors and Coulrophobia</strong></p><p><strong> Rating: </strong><strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">E+</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="rA3Ac09.png?1" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rA3Ac09.png?1" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="text-align:center;"></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Luther: </strong><strong><span style="color:#A0522D;">"He just powerbombed his own manager!"</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Moses: </strong><strong><span style="color:#000080;">"Order has descended into chaos.

Death Row operate like a seasoned tag team with ten years experience however it doesn't seem like they're as used to the hardcore environment. Death Row dominates in the ring but once the match spills out (because of course it does, this is IPW dammit) Aldous and Remmy turn it around. Remmy takes to the air while Aldous uses a chair to even the size disadvantage. Because of the barbwire all four men are bleeding profusely by the end with hundreds of cuts but despite starting out very strong Aldous and Remmy slowly wear them down. The fans are hollering and cheering as Aldous puts Knuckles away with a Batwing (Fisherman's Suplex) onto a steel chair Remmy slid into the ring.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>In a bout that had fantastic heat and great wrestling, Aldous Blackfriar and Remmy Skye defeated Death Row in a Barbed Wire match in 15:16 when Aldous Blackfriar pinned Knuckles with a Batwing. In terms of in-ring work, Aldous Blackfriar was head and shoulders above everyone else.</strong></p><p> <span style="font-size:8px;"><em>Idaho's Note: </em></span></p><p> <strong>Rating: </strong><strong><span style="color:#A0522D;">D+</span></strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="rA3Ac09.png?1" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rA3Ac09.png?1" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p> </p><p> <img alt="H7Q1xj9t.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/H7Q1xj9t.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="bzBm8L8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/bzBm8L8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="yvkv2yit.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/yvkv2yit.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="UubNZBxt.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/UubNZBxt.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="VgMzh68t.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VgMzh68t.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="S5Ehzeg.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/S5Ehzeg.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> The four challengers are all in the ring but before the match starts Anslem delivers a microphone to Frantic Ali who starts trash talking the opposition.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Frantic: </strong><strong><span style="color:#FF8C00;">"What is this match?

Unlike the previous match neither side is entirely limited to just hardcore brawling. While Lug and Dusty square off and duke it out Frantic and Hugh put on a fast display of technical and aerial maneuvers. The match mostly stays within the ring as these competitors are much more aware of the barb wire around the rope although that doesn't save anyone from being bloody and battered by the end. </p><p> </p><p> The match goes back and forth until Hugh and Dusty isolate Lug after Dusty tossed Frantic over the top rope. The crowd gasps at how badly that could have gone if he had caught the wire but he sailed over clean although still crashing into a table on the outside. Lug is then double teamed and sent whipping into the barb wire before being beaten down. Dusty grabs Lug by the head and slams his face into the barb wire blinding Lug. Completely defenseless Hugh and Dusty put the boots to him, double teaming him but Lug kicks out pin after pin. Dusty puts Lug up on his shoulders to set up a double team move but Lug punches out of it and turns it into a reverse DDT. </p><p> </p><p> Lug rages a comeback whipping both Hugh and Dusty into the ropes and putting boots to faces. Frantic Ali slides a table into the match and Lug puts Hugh on top of Dusty and covers both with a table. Frantic hits a big frog splash onto the table cracking it and both of his opponents. </p><p> </p><p> Frantic hauls up Hugh and starts punching him while Lug picks up the pin on Dusty.</p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-size:8px;"><em>Idaho's Note: Oops.

Dunno. Found it on google under cult images.

Icing on the cake, pre-set Summer and Fawn to have great chemistry tagging together or wrestling one another.

Or maybe they need masks given they are wanted in three states for armed robbery...

Surfer Ray Odyssey is a journeyman jobber from the looks of it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_Odyssey He's worked a ton of territories, picked up the odd belt here or there but nothing long term or specific and in 1995 he is still wrestling in a wetsuit and sun screen on the nose. From the matches I've seen Joey Styles just doesn't comment on the whole "job gimmick" thing. They're not making fun of him, but they're also not leaning into the whole "This guy's a surfer! Let's here him do surfer lingo!" either. To me it seems very much a time of transition from 70's and 80's style gimmicks to more realistic attitude era gimmicks like the Sandman or Tommy Dreamer. I would imagine in 1997 you're seeing them pop up in smaller feds but they're definitely on their way out. Territory veterans with weak characters struggling to adapt to the changing style and audience interests.

!brrr I'll probably work on the other 6 events today as well. Might as well now that it's halfway done.
