  1. If you run your own network, you can negotiate show contracts on it on their behalf. I just started a child promotion after toppling EILL from the top spot, and knocking them down to medium, and did exactly that. Start your own network, and negotiate a deal with them to air whatever you want. But you have to do it from the child company controls.
  2. Basically when interference happens that results in a match, which is accurate, as in reality, it DOES affect the flow. Of both the match, and the show.
  3. I've reached the point in my save where I've essentially surpassed EILL in Mexico. I'm winning the monthly battles, have more over stars, and am gaining ground on them in America. I have my ppvs on Demand TV Mexico, and they also show on my small network, which I set as being a commercial internet network. My network is currently showing my ppvs outside Mexico to help boost my popularity in other regions and airing my b-show. Canal Uno has a contract with me for 6 more months to air my main television program. I was thinking of phasing out my contract at LEAST with Canal Uno, and transferring coverage of my main show to the commercial network and setting up a a 2nd to run either a internet ppv or internet subscription for the ppvs and possibly ditching Demand TV Mexico. What would be the better option to roll with as far as profitability? I'm currently the 6th richest promotion in the world sitting at 19 million, but it would cost me 7 million to get out of my current broadcasting contracts. I don't really want to spend the money and would rather finish my contracts with both before jumping into this expansion. I'm just curious about which method of broadcasting would be better.
  4. The majority of that stuff comes down to promotion settings and product. AI shouldn't be booking trios matches unless it's it in the AI product settings to do so. As for the rest of the post, that too, comes down to understanding and booking based on your product. The product setup is different than in previous versions, but the basic formula for booking the game has not. It comes down to understanding what's required of your product and booking accordingly.
  5. I've had them get penalized for even being 1 minute. So I don't do any overness related angles.
  6. Storylines, gimmicks, momentum all play into people's overness besides match outcomes. Also, angles rated on overness are generally useless for booking purposes. They don't get anyone over, and hamper your ratings because effective "nothing happens". People are there to be entertained and see action. So if they aren't cutting promos or beating people up, really, nobody is gonna give a can of beans. Your best bet is to always have them involved in angles with someone else and having something else happen in the angle if they're gonna be rated on overness. Like, do a beatdown angle where one guy is rated on fighting, another on selling, and the other guy on overness. Having JUSt overness related angles are always going to bomb and give you notes that "nothing happened". As for the falling overness in home regions, are you checking to see if you're losing any battles with other promotions? That's usually what causes popularity drops besides bad cards or region importance.
  7. Started small, and have made it to just about reaching big status in my Cornellverse game playing as a lucha promotion. I've been sniping talent from various places. Primarily OLLIE and EILL. I managed to lure away several top talent and have gotten Mr Lucha, Multimillionario, and El Heroe Mexicano to 90+ overness. My main focus is getting to the point where I can take down EILL and dethrone them from the top spot in Mexico, and then hopefully move on to conquering the rest of North America. I had my first ppv in the 90's just recently. So hoping to build on that. My shows have mostly been the 70's and 80's, with a few duds here and there which is to be expected since nobody hits it out of the park every week, and I routinely see the AI booking lower rated shows for the big 3 rather often. Right now USPW and SWF have been dominant. TCW fell to medium which is where CZCW is now. USPW doesn't look like it will be able to sustain its titanic status forever. Their roster is looking pretty aged. While they've been sniping talent from TCW and SWF, the two don't seem as plagued by an aging roster. I'm watching to see when USPW drops off.
  8. Campeonato de Taza de Templo LFW (Temple Cup, annual tournament): Silver Tiger Campeonato de Lucha Maya LFW (2nd tier singles title): Payaso Jr Campeonato de Lucha Aztecca LFW (main event title) El Heroe Mexicano I'm a year and a half into a save with a lucha company called Lucha Future Wrestling that I started at small, and have worked almost to being a big sized promotion. Trying to get my foothold in America.
  9. Personally, based on how announcers are told to perform, I can't stand them IRL. One reason why I always enjoy house shows more. You have fans who genuinely want to be there, and engage in the matches, and you don't have all the pandering, distractions, and BS chants that come with fans trying to be the star of the show and get on TV. Best of all, no crappy announcing to detract from the match.
  10. Jim Ross is overrated. Gordon Solie also wasn't God's gift to announcing either.
  11. My ppv deal started in January, and my TV deal in February. I'm halfway into July. Neither will change time slots.
  12. I'm running a small promotion, 12pts away from becoming Medium. I'm running an afternoon timeslotted show on La Red de La Lucha and despite my worst card being rated 50 back in January (I'm in June now), and having cards primarily in the 60's and 70's, I can't get out of the afternoon timeslot. Early evening and Evening timeslots are both expecting minimum cards lower than what I'm producing. So I should have no problem meeting this requirement. Can someone explain why they won't change my timeslot? I'm meeting the minimum requirements for production. Do I need to increase production to change timeslots?
  13. This has really been bothering me. I didn't seem to have this problem in previous versions. But I'm running a lucha promotion in Mexico in the cornelleverse, where the emphasis is more on ring work than characters. My core product is classic lucha libre, and my current product is fast and furious. Yet, when I look at OLLIE, and others, they're scoring cards in the 70's, and mine have been in 40's and 50's. I'm using most of the same talent. Yet I can't figure out why the match ratings and cards are so low comparatively.
  14. You can't have a deal with another broadcaster showing in the same region. You would have to end your deal with Wrestleworld to have a deal with East Coast Today.
  15. This is pretty much what I do. I spend a few months on a series of storylines, and sometimes I'll weave them in together. Such as making the technicos and rudos team up, or forcing the characters in the feud to team up, and maybe have one cause a miscommunication, or have him abandon his teammate, or help him get the loss by turning on him. I run my storylines pretty aggressively, but they never run longer than a few months.

  17. I wanted to update Sunburst. This was the end result. Used a Gram Gorman render I had stored on here that someone from the community made a long time ago, then used one of SMW's mask templates for the base mask, make some tweaks to it, then worked on an updated Sunburst design. https://i.imgur.com/3vq0iCo.jpg
  18. I made a modification to SMW88's version of Xtinction for my own purposes, and thought I'd share it here. I wanted to keep some of the original incorporated into the design. So I added the X's. https://i.imgur.com/VJl0fVs.jpg Also made a small edit to his Chess Maniac as well. Making it more white colored, and added to the eyes, to give it more of a "see through" style screen look. Also lightened his skin tone a bit. https://i.imgur.com/vCYKQXz.jpg

None of the Andre the Giant battle royal lineages were updated since Big Show which was 2015. I ended up updating Corbin, Mojo and Hardy myself.

  21. Is there an update on this? I've love to play the 2016 version of the cornellverse on TEW 2013.
