Pay attention to the show feedback at the end of the show, as well as the Dirt Sheet notes that you receive after each match (if you don't know what this is, there should be an option in the User Preferences called 'turn dirt sheet off', turn this <strong>off.</strong> The dirt sheet is one of the tabs in the show phase that allows you to look at all of the penalties and bonuses to a segment's rating, it's very helpful for learning the game. </p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46682" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> - The crowd management is quite difficult, I find.

Really interesting start, looking forward to seeing where this goes!

Your overt bias against Reigns ruins the credibility of anything you say.

Roman has consistently put on good PPV matches for years, saying that Roman is terrible is just factually incorrect. Come on man.

My friend and I have just passed Elimination Chamber, which was booked by him. Here's the link to the video of us running through it: <div class="ipsEmbeddedVideo"><div><iframe width="200" height="113" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/abfoaSQHZgQ?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" title="Codey & Cody play TEW - Elimination Chamber 2018"></iframe></div></div>

<p>Started a YouTube series with my buddy, one of us booking RAW and the other booking SmackDown, starting from just after Royal Rumble. First three shows (RAW, 205Live and SmackDown) are up, including some major announcements, a WWE Championship #1 Contender being decided and the beginning stages of the Elimination Chamber Qualifiers! </p><p> </p><p> Here's the channel if that interests anybody: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYAOHR7u3iLM9xei9Ca4P9w" rel="external nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYAOHR7u3iLM9xei9Ca4P9w</a></p>

<p>I think the point TheWho is making is that because of the mammoth size of his mod and the manner in which he releases updates (every month), it is impossible to perfectly mimic real life. In the case of the Velveteen Dream's stats, there was probably a time where he wasn't as good as he is now, and this time is what TheWho used when making his stats potentially over a year ago, or even more.</p><p> </p><p> The CornellVerse and even Real Life mods with a set date (such as a 2004 mod) are always going to be more accurate, because the creator can spend all their time perfecting the stats, not having to worry about, for example, Kofi Kingston suddenly becoming far more charismatic than previously thought possible, or the wild improvements Dream has made. </p><p> </p><p> It's unfortunate, but if people want releases every month with updated champions, rosters and etc, there are going to be compromises. The statistics are compromised.</p><p> </p><p> Being aggressive instead of offering actual improvements to someone who is in a race to maintain the accuracy of over 6000 workers and countless other factors is ridiculous.</p>

Just wanted to say, this is easily my favourite dynasty on the forums right now. Really good stuff.

Starting my first "proper" game with the AWF, mod seems really great so far.

My gut impression for Emma has always been that she's a proper manager and not your typical attractive valet that people like Hannah and Krissy Angelle appear to be.

Was surprising to see Xavier Woods as Kofi's partner instead of Big E, but the match didn't really suffer as a result, a testament to the versatility of New Day's members. My only major criticism is that there was blatant cheating taking place in front of the referee. During the early minutes The Usos did the classic heel team thing where the illegal partner cheap-shots the babyface...but the referee saw everything. Most of the time the referee is meant to be distracted because this is DQ or at least worthy of a warning, but I guess not? Anyway, New Day get the win in what was a good opener, I'm looking forward to the rematch, especially considering the only alternative is New Day versus Ascension. Ha. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Baron Corbin</span></strong></span></span></p></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:12px;">A solid enough match, but this didn't belong on a PPV / Network special. I'm not convinced by Baron Corbin really, he still needs work if he's going to become a decent WWE Champion. The match wasn't bad by any means, but nothing special. Nakamura gets a DQ victory after Corbin low-blows him, probably setting up another match for later. If they build this better and perhaps go for something like a Falls Count Anywhere stipulation this could be much better at SummerSlam. </span></span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Women's Five Way</span></strong></span></span></p></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:12px;">This was slightly better than I expected. SmackDown's Women's Division is really weak so it was nice to see Natalya actually get the win here, WWE attempting to salvage her after the last few years of destroying her credibility. Lana and Tamina continued their alliance of sorts, but I must say it was weird to see the big bad Tamina tapping out to the Disarmer in far less time than it took to get Lana to tap. Becky then tapped out Lana before being immediately rolled up by Nattie, who went on to defeat Charlotte to win her shot. Naomi offered her a handshake, which she rejected. Overall not bad, but probably the weakest or second weakest of the night. </span></span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">AJ Styles vs. Kevin Owens</span></strong></span></span></p></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:12px;">The only match tonight that genuinely annoyed me, which is a shame because in terms of the in-ring work it was a very good match. Owens and AJ are two of the best workers in the company so that's obviously no surprise. And then the finish happened. The referee was knocked out after Owens threw AJ into him, and from there the two traded submissions, AJ locking in the Calf Crusher, then Owens countering into a Crossface, then AJ countered with one of his own. The referee finally woke up and immediately saw Owens roll AJ into a pinning predicament while still locked in the Crossface, with Owens getting the 3-count. This was a horrible, horrible finish. Firstly, I don't know why the ref-bump happened because it doesn't influence the finish at all. Secondly, how did AJ allow himself to get pinned? All he had to do was release the Crossface and he'd be fine. He then started arguing with the referee as if something illegal happened when in reality he just got pinned. Finally, switching the title to Owens so soon after AJ won it was pretty dumb. Good match but the finish tainted it. </span></span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">John Cena vs. Rusev</span></strong></span></span></p></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:12px;">I didn't watch this.

Sami murdered Mike for the first few minutes until a Maria distraction allowed Mike to connect with one of his admittedly great punches. Mike dominated for a bit until Sami fired up, made his comeback and eventually hit the Helluva Kick. A retread of their SmackDown match, not all that interesting. </span></span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:left;"><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Randy Orton vs. Jinder Mahal</span></strong></span></span></p></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"><span style="font-size:12px;">The greatest Punjabi Prison match ever. </span></span><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p><p><span style="font-family:Garamond;"> </span></p>

It's difficult because if you were an SE company with say 60-70% match ratio you could probably get away with putting on one good match a night (like an ME v a midcarder) and then have the rest of the show filled with squash matches, with your angles carrying you. I feel like the Japan-style is the right way to go here.
