I've never attempted a "real" RTG. I've done 0/0/0/0 games before, but I've never created my own character, I usually just use an announcer, like Vince, Heyman, or Bischoff. However, this does look very interesting, and I'll probably do one in the CVerse as I've never played a CV game outside of the demo.
A couple of questions, however, as I've never moved to a new company mid-game:
1. How long does it take to raise your booking reputation?
2. How soon can you jump? For example, if I stay with a company long enough to increase my reputation, can I go from a Regional company to a Cult company, then immediately jump to a National company? Technically, that fulfills the "one step higher" requirement.
3. Is there a way to simulate the AJPW split, obviously not to that level, but taking one worker with you when you jump ship?
