  1. Thanks. Not exactly sure what makes it a deathlock STF and not a regular STF but it's something to go off.
  2. Anyone have WreSpi in front of them/just happen to remember what the Acid Rain Bomb and Acidity Test are?
  3. It looks like that everyone will be able to perform face or heel to a basically decent standard unless an attribute is specifying they can only play one way. However, there look to be degrees of capability, so you might have a worker having the 'natural heel' attribute and being great at heel, while another might be a 'born babyface' and be fantastic as a face. It just means it's not tied to numbers and that unless otherwise stated, it's assumed most workers can generally be a face or a heel, which is a pretty fair representation. I'd say a majority of wrestlers can play either alignment when they have to, and if they're better at one or the other, that's where the attributes will come in.
  4. <p>Full steam ahead on my converted 2010 data!</p><p> </p><p> I finally shrugged my shoulders and went 'screw it' and decided to actually play with this data I've been messing with since literally 2013 came out and it's been everything I hoped.</p><p> </p><p> Fully intending on reproducing it in 2020 and just picking up right where I left off.</p>
  5. there's a certain very strange feeling to booking two eight-man angles to cover one event and those two angles still being insufficient to cover the number of people actually involved.
  6. Eien. I caught you juicing three weeks ago. Eien, you are literally still suspended for steroids. Eien. Please consider your choices.
  7. Were you writing the initials or the full company name, BHK?
  8. I got a cool 50 on cverse promotions. Four of the ones I missed were newer promotions cause I'm so used to playing with 2010 data, lol.
  9. I'm second-guessing myself. Does a 99 rated (as shown by numbers-rather-than-letters) match count as an A*? I thought it didn't, but I saw the AI get a 'Match of the year candidate' news article for a 99, so now I'm uncertain.
  10. <p>That third Mikey makes the 'push Mikey' owner goal I got look... considerably easier.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> On an unrelated note, does anyone have any recommendations of good short (or cropped) haired female renders?</p><p> </p><p> I'm doing an angle with Amber Allen and sadly all her renders have very long luscious locks so I'm looking for a substitute I can use for her for a bit. Doesn't need to be like, head shaved or anything, just short.</p>

I was alone at my table. The restaurant was near empty. I took another bite of my sandwich. While I wasn’t wrestling anymore, I still tried to eat relatively healthy. This was an exception. Chicken Parmesan sandwich, french fries topped with warm marinara sauce and a sprinkle of cheese. An ice cold Pepsi. My comfort food.</p><p> </p><p> I didn’t need comfort for any professional reason. Business was going well. We were successful. We were consistently drawing near 3,000 fans -- our last several shows had all been sell outs. Creatively, I was as inspired as I had ever been. It was just one of those days. One of those days that society, at least my generation of society, isn’t supposed to talk about. One of those days where you don’t want to get out of the bed. You want to just run from the world and responsibilities. One of those days where the medicine really didn’t help much.</p><p> </p><p> On these days, I eat chicken parmesan and fries smothered with delicious goodness. On these days, I sat at a booth by myself and tried to ignore the rest of the world. I took another bite and chased it with a swallow of Pepsi. This had been a battle I had been fighting since I was fourteen. Back then, no one said anything. You’d get a stigma with the diagnosis. So I learned to push it deep. I wasn’t until the mid 2000’s that I got an actual diagnosis and got on medicine. Before that it had all been self medication. I wasn’t the only one to live like that. To hide the illness in the closet. To be ashamed of it -- or to be ashamed to talk about it at the very least. There were lots of us in the ‘rasslin’ business. It seemed to attract us like flies. Maybe it’s because we could hide in plain sight. We could play the star on the television or in the ring and hide how we really felt. I was used to hiding in plain sight.</p><p> </p><p> I dipped my fork into my fries so I could get a mouthful. Business was going good. Family life was going good. I was happy -- except today I wasn’t. I ate another bite of my sandwich and then my fries. Today wasn’t a day I could focus on business. Today wasn’t a day I could bring myself to care about booking or production or training. This is why it was good to have Joel and Riley and Marjorie. On days where I was fighting a losing battle, they helped me fight. They gave me space. They checked in on me, but they handled things when I mentally couldn’t. Today, I was afforded the space and time I needed and I was grateful. I took another bite of my sandwich. I took a deep breath. It was going to be okay. I *knew* that. I was going to be okay. I was okay.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I'm a super long way back and reading up to the present, but I just want to touch on this segment, cause it made me tear up. Felt very real, and very relatable.</p>
  12. I just failed a critical owner goal on my first show. I am very good at this game.
  13. <p>Slowly slogging through title lineages in my data conversion at the moment.</p><p> </p><p> This would be going much faster if I didn't have to salvage the downright weirdness going on with 50% of the belts for the sake of my sanity.</p><p> </p><p> Things get a bit squiggly after nine years of regional dogfighting, especially with tag team belts.</p><p> </p><p> I'm dreading getting into the European scene. Might have to throw out the tag lineages wholesale and start from scratch for EWA and UEW.</p><p> </p><p> Sidenote, it's a nice diversion now and then to set up the company HOFs for some of the longer runners (with some strategic edits to diversify the scene). Dirty Frank and Thomas Morgan get to be UCW legends!</p>

  15. I didn't watch much of the show at all but I am very down with those opaque contacts Jeff was rocking.
  16. <p>SWF please reconsider your title booking.</p><p> </p><p> <img alt="WylsFKx.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/WylsFKx.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

It's currently mid July 2025, and The Mission are STILL RIPW tag team champions. Yes, they've only had 8 defenses, but they have been tag team champions for ALMOST TEN YEARS!!!

  18. <p>The Rhonda/Bliss segment was great.</p><p> </p><p> There was this slight weirdness with Kurt when she was hitting him with the briefcase though, he just didn't seem to be selling it very much.</p>
  19. Dead Pool is a spooky Sammy Bach. But he has wrestled under his real name as a heel and has been in TCW as Sammy Bach since the start.

Is making her 59 going to make a difference or is the promotion too small?</p>

Do you personally have tightly focused storylines set up for each feud you have or do you do something like "here are 6 of my lower mid-carders that will fill out my undercard" storyline? <p> </p><p> snip</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> </p><p> I tend to run with lots of alliances and teams, so the storylines themselves can often involve a lot of workers, but those that are in it are specifically involved in said storyline.</p><p> </p><p> I actually tend to not create storylines at all if there isn't something focused. For example my current TV champion isn't getting storylines, I'm just cycling in different challengers at various points, there's no particular story other than 'they want belt'. At the point it becomes a more specific feud, I'll make a storyline.</p>
  22. <p>Do potential owners need to be below a certain age to open a company?</p><p> </p><p> For some reason a company set to open July 2019 in my data with someone set as the required owner just... isn't opening and I can't see why. The owner's active and has roles.</p>
