So what I think you've said is it's the skin I'm using? If so that would never have occurred to me.</p>
  3. So I usually play with letter grades rather than numbers. I turn numbers on and suddenly I'm getting way more A* rated matches. Seems 95 or 96% gets you A* but it's only 100% with the grades? I turn the letter grades back on and my top matches of the year shows to me that I've got way less A* matches. Does this make sense to people? Is it a feature or a bug?
  4. <p>Guys, Remo is my number 1 heel and just got caught in a racist scandal and is now toxic. </p><p> </p><p> I've done some searching for info and it seems this hangs around for a good while. </p><p> </p><p> Do I just suck it up and let him go for free and maybe get him back down the line or do I keep him, give him a few months off and see where we are?</p><p> </p><p> As it happens Jonathan Faust's contract is up, so he could come straight in as a top heel, but it's Remo man, a 4 time SWF champ. He's headlined 4 of my 5 Supreme Challenge events.</p>
  5. <p>SWF - July 2020</p><p> </p><p> World - Remo - beat Champagne Lover for the strap. Dropping it to Spencer Spade later this month.</p><p> </p><p> North American - Mainstream Hernandez - beat Freddie Huggins - Left SWF for TCW for a couple of years but back now and on a tear as "Mainstream". </p><p> </p><p> Tag - Natural Storm - They've held the belts for a year and are going to drop it at SC40 to the Natural Athletes (Des Davies and Ross Henry.)</p><p> </p><p> Television - Frankie Perez beat Nelson Callum. As per usual with the TV belt I don't quite know when he will be dropping it or to who. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Faith and Ranger are ET and heels and had zero chemistry when I put them together.</p>
  7. Written myself into a bit of a corner here team. Got non-Wrestling face authority figure Christian Faith feuding with Hell's Bouncer and also Scythe. I've had it going for a while, had Faith manage the Borden's against Bouncer and Scythe with the heels going over. Now I'm now really sure how the story line ends. Any tips?
  8. <p>Thanks, will investigate. </p><p> </p><p> I'll tell you what I didn't like, it was a Wrestlemania's greatest matches things, it was super kayfabe and I watched about 10 minutes of the Hogan vs Rock episode and had to give up because it was too cheesy for my taste.</p>

  10. What a great post, you're save sounds more interesting than mine. Full of turns and younger guys pushed. (This is my first save in my first TEW game though ) I just did SC39. Lover went over Remo in the big rematch from 38. Primus Allen bested Rouge in a steel cell in Allen's first SC as a main eventer. Hawkins beat Chord Bruce beat Gilmour And I was pleased to have Scythe and Hell's Bouncer beat Dark Angel and Skull DeBones. Really made sense to me and elevated the two young guys. Beat sneaky to have Bones come back for one last match after I had made a huge deal of Vengeance retiring only a couple of months earlier. Bit like Biker Taker coming back after Taker Taker retired..
  11. Hi dudes, I've got WWE network at the moment and I watched something called Bret vs Shawn: The Rivalry or something like that. It was brillant a two hour sit down interview with them and Jim Ross. Is there anything on the network to touch that? And what about more stuff like the Monday Night War doc? I'm not that fussed about that doc, seen it or similar stuff before but I don't see where it is on the network, am I missing a hidden documentary section?
  12. I'm glad my venting gave someone some pleasure. It's good though, encourages more creative booking. I'll switch to the younger guys sooner.
  13. <p>I'll tell you what is going on guys.</p><p> </p><p> First I make Champagne Lover my figurehead and then after about a month he goes into Time Decline at the age of 37. And then about 5 months after that his body time goes to flabby!</p><p> </p><p> I thought I was safe from him going into decline for at least another 3 or 4 years, I thought he would be like Jack Bruce. </p><p> </p><p> Oh well, those are the breaks.</p>
  14. I totally get a tag partner going heel on his partner but what's a typical way for a partner to go face? Anyone give any examples they've done in the game or from real life? (Jefferson Stardust is turning face on Huey Cannonball and the Awesomeness are breaking up just FYI.)
  15. <p>Anyone gone deep into an SWF thread and want to share their SC headliners?</p><p> </p><p> I went:</p><p> </p><p> SC36 - Valiant went over Remo in the main and Jack Bruce beat Sean McFly in a Once In A Lifetime.</p><p> </p><p> SC37 - Valiant went over Wolf Hawkins and Jack Bruce lost to Remo.</p><p> </p><p> SC38 - Remo beat Champagne Lover in a Once In a Lifetime and Jack Bruce lost to Wolf Hawkins.</p><p> </p><p> SC39 - Plan is to re-run the main event, Lover beating Remo and have a Once In A Lifetime between Sean McFly and Rocky Golden. (Jack Bruce is due to face a heel Angry Gilmour.)</p><p> </p><p> No ideas for the big 40 just yet. Could do Primus Allen winning the belt for the first time, maybe against Jay Chord. A real new era match. Or Nicky Champion v Remo which I don't think has ever happened, don't really like the idea of an "outsider" going over in the main event of a big round number SC. One last main even for Jack Bruce maybe, as a heel possibly.</p>
  16. Thanks, I'll do that. I'd like to see elimination order and number of falls in an iron man/2 out of 3 falls match put within our control in a future game. (No idea how much effort is involved in doing that of course, so very easy for me to say that.)
  17. <p>So I'm doing a 4 way tag elimination match. I want the champs to retain but the team they are feuding with to be the last out.</p><p> </p><p> I put the keep strong note on both of the members of that team, makes sense to me.</p><p> </p><p> They are promptly first out.</p><p> </p><p> Is it me doing something wrong on out of my control?</p>

  20. Thanks for the response, just checked, yes, that's the one. OK, fair enough, what about 19? Shawn Michaels defeated Chris Jericho 22:34 Triple H © (with Ric Flair) defeated Booker T 18:45 Hulk Hogan defeated Mr. McMahon 20:47 The Rock defeated Stone Cold Steve Austin Singles match 17:55 Brock Lesnar defeated Kurt Angle © 21:07
  21. I don't really understand perfect show theory. I was looking back at a WM from a few years back and it had the top 3 matches, all going twenty minutes plus in the last three slots. Did this burn the crowd out?

I've seen a lot of people say they have made him their next figurehead so that was my plan with my latest save. <p> </p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Sorry, been meaning to reply to this for ages.</p><p> </p><p> I'm just starting 2019 and Valiant has about 3 months left on his contract and I'm letting him go. It's a lot like you, he won his first title at SC36 going over Remo for the belt. He goes on a 13 month run beating Hawkins at SC37. And then dropped it to Hawkins the next month. But he's never become a "top" guy. And by this time (rightly or wrongly) I have Golden AND Champion (and Lover) so he is way down the babyface pecking order. And he's a bitch about every loss as well. In fact, he's a bitch about draws even. I'm sure he's slightly upset at least one point about a sports entertainment finish. </p><p> </p><p> Like I say, he's off to whomever wants him and I'm moving Primus Allen to the main event (where he should already be.)</p>

I'm looking to get a new laptop and am wondering what bits need to be great to run a game like TEW at an optimal performance.</p><p> </p><p> Knowing that TEW or GDS games (or indeed any game that I would play) in general are not graphically intense means that I know that the processing of data is more important. But the tech terminology is what trips me up. If someone could point me in the right direction so I can accommodate the best specs to fit my budget that would be awesome.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I don't think TEW is stretching any even half decent brand new laptop. Mine is an i5 that I got for about £350 and the game plays like a dream on that but the WMMA games played perfectly well on my last laptop when it was 8 or 9 years old.</p>
  24. <p>Is there a contract signing angle somewhere and I just can't see it?</p><p> </p><p> There was one in EWR for sure and it seems like a fairly obvious thing to have.</p><p> </p><p> Also, does anyone create a tournament title for a Royal Rumble type match? </p><p> </p><p> It seems like a nice way of recording the winner.</p>
