My WrestleMania type show. In what was my 2nd best show over (last month's event/ppv/whatever was 1st thanks to the 97 rated main event,) it had my 2nd, 5th and 14th best match on the card. Really happy with how the show turned out. Not bad for a high regional company!</p>

Not in a National PPV just yet, but I am in the main event of my regional promotion! At least I know who to work with whenever I get my company National. That was pretty sweet. Definitely a shock since my best match up until this point was an 85 between Dan Stone Jr and Pablo Rodriguez, who both were STOLEN from me by BHOTWG. Fun fact, my 3rd highest grade was between this same team, myself and Angry Gilmore vs Jeremy Stone & Duane Stone. Both were also stolen from me by Burning Hammer. Basically any match with a stone is absolutely money. I'm finally at the point where I also fit that criteria.</p>

1999 has finally come to a close. A lot of good happened. A ton of growth, a TV deal covering 3 regions with the downfall being it's free to air. We're making 100k+ a month. However, BHOTWG is killing my roster. In just the past 6 months I've lost Jeremy Stone, Duane Stone, Pablo Rodriguez, Richard Coleman, Rick Sanders and Big Cat Brandon. I can do without Brandon, Coleman and to a lesser extent, Sanders. But losing the Stones and Rodriguez is severely impacting my grades. All 3 were main eventers I could rely on to pull a 70 grade. Now instead of all my shows being high 60's to low 70's, I range from low 50's to low 70's. Now I'm deciding if the rush to cult should continue so I can sign my last couple great workers to writtens, or if I should say screw it and just build up a war chest of money to survive long-term at cult.
On the really positive side, buying out P-Girls was a great move. Crusher Ichihara and Sensational Ogiwara are great. Thunder Hike just came back from injury and looks really good, too. Kit Hiyatoma will be back from maternity in 4 months, and I'll have 4 of the best women in the world. Knowing my luck, Burning Hammer will open a women's division and I'll lose them as well.

Finally got all my events made for my RTG promotion. Even made a logo, banner and TV show for it too! Anyone can feel free to use these if they'd like! First time making anything other than a thumbnail, so let me know what you think!

How exactly do you make event logos? I've downloaded GIMP and been toying around a little bit just to make custom thumbnails, but that's all fairly simple. Where do you get the texts and images to make the logos? Or if you could point me in the direction of any tutorials, that would be awesome!

I brought over 10 of the 20 workers. Kit and Thunder are both out (maternity 7 months, injury 2 months, respectively) but Sensational vs Crusher Ichihara was the main event of the very next show and sadly, both are still only active in Japan. I'm just hoping that WINNOW will get the news thing where it says they're in debt so I can buy them out and then hopefully with nowhere else for the women to work, they'll move to Mid-South.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> EDIT: On second look, they'll be spending a ton of time in USA going forward!</p>

<p>Short form of the question... If I buy out all japanese women's feds, and take their workers via the buyout, with my company the ONLY place for the japanese ladies to work, would they then move location to Mid-South, thus becoming active in USA, enabling me to re-sign them once their contracts are expired? I'm regional btw, so it'd be PPA contracts.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>
Here's the scenario:</p><p>
I'm a regional company, I just bought a Japanese women's fed. There's 1 women's fed left in Japan, but they're the 26th richest company in the world and considering Phoenix Girls is the 24th richest, and they're 90k in debt, WINNOW is surely in debt, and I can likely buy them out (if I so choose.)</p><p> </p><p>
So here's my question, if I were to purchase both women's feds, leaving women's wrestling non-existent in Japan, would all the Japanese women's talent that I take via company takeover move location to Mid-South (USA) enabling me to resign them once their contracts are up? I'd love to use the Japanese women's talent because I'm a major perf over pop fed, but I also don't want to throw my entire bank down the drain for a year or two of good ratings using a women's division.</p>

<p>In my RTG in 97CV I'm Regional, charging hard towards Cult. I just lost Jeremy Stone, which is a massive blow due to my heavily perf over pop product. Luckily, I've been able to utilize his skillset over the past 12 months, so I have a lot more guys capable of putting on really good matches, but not quite solid enough to consistently put on B's like Jeremy Stone. That definitely hurts. Dan, and Duane are close, but Jeremy is the GOAT. PGHW have also signed one of my younger guys that I was about to start pushing. He's only 25 but has high 80's/90's stats. That's a bummer.</p><p> </p><p>
Anyways, 5SSW went out of business, and P-Girls basically have all their top gals, and I'm debating whether or not to buy them out for a paltry 90k (about what I made last month, so not a huge financial burden) so I can have the sensational 3 and a couple of other GREAT women workers. Only problem is, I won't be able to resign them when their contracts are up because they're based in Japan, and I'm clearly not an international company.</p><p> </p><p>
Another thing I could do, since they're not a very popular company and I have no need for Japanese pop, is to make them a dev company, but then I don't think I'd have access to the women that they sign. I really want to use the great Japanese talent, though. AGH! Decisions, decisions. They have another 3 months, so I have time to decide I suppose.</p>

<p>Just booked my first Wrestlemania-esque event. Sunday, Week 3, 1999. In front of 3600 souls in the Mid-South, WrestleBowl I feautured Nemesis vs Chris Carnage (user) for the BSE World title. I retained in my highest rated match to date with an 83! Also on the show, we had The Stones (Duane and Jeremy) defending their BSE tag team titles against the Spirit Warriors (Dark Eagle, Golden Scorpion) in my now second highest rated match (76) thus far. The show got my best show rating by a very large margin at a 78 B. </p><p> </p><p>
Also, it was the final show to push my pop over 42 in the Mid-South, which means a Mid-South television deal!</p><p> </p><p>
My RTG is going very well!</p>

They're definitely the real #1 promotion with HGC at a declining #2 (losing Bruce hurts so much, plus their main event scene is at the average age of 41 with 3 of them over 47) and then I'd say either me (TCW) or PGHW at #3 and then #4 is whoever isn't #3. <p> </p><p> </p><p> Just booked Total Mayhem II and Sensational Ogiwara won the title, I want her to enter the Hall of Immortals badly, so I am trying to give her a few title reigns to help this. I like to keep the women's title main event because they can go 20 minutes without penalty now and the women's match actually had motn so.. Total Mayhem III will be main evented by the Magic Three as I find the number 3 to be fitting, plus Ichihara is 37 and could hit decline soon knowing my luck and would want the 3 way match to happen with all 3 of them in their primes. The main event saw Jack Bruce win the title, getting his chance to main event Total Mayhem saw his HoI percentage hit 20% at the age of 31.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> Out of curiosity do the Piledriver School of Wrestling churn out ridiculously great regens for you? I've quite literally hired every single one coming out and they have all 80+ SQ and are usually NBT or are already great workers, it's ridiculous.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I haven't really checked. I just hired some new midcard guys and a couple new main eventers to keep things fresh so I won't go on a hiring spree for another few months. I did see one that was a rookie but had like 90 basics and another 90 performance skill. I'm actually curious now...</p>

<p>Seeing as you're multiple years ahead of me, it's interesting to see how the world plays out. Basically Burning Hammer is like SOTBPW is in the default db. That's crazy.</p><p> </p><p>
Also, I have Lobby and both machines. Hopefully neither retire. I'm really hoping I can reach cult to lock down my technical workers. All 3 stones and Steve Flash I wanna lock up before I lose them. Unfortunately I'm a ways off.</p>

<p>Playing my RTG game in the 97 Cornell-Verse. Just had my 2 best matches in my very first show of 1999. As I posted in the RTG thread, NOTBPW was bought out by SWF in October of 98, so the Stones are all working for me exclusively (except when they tour with Hinote). </p><p> </p><p>
My first ever 70 rated match featured Dan Stone Jr. vs Steve Flash in the one of the beginning matches. Then my main event, Jeremy & Duane Stone vs. Rick Sanders & Joel Kovach for the BSE Tag Titles came in at a 72! What a brilliant start to the year! </p><p> </p><p>
Also, according to the figurehead screen, my user character is finally at the point where nobody overshadows him in the main event scene. Unfortunately, I'm only 75 baby face so that's a bit worrying. However, due to my user character becoming ripped, my SQ is 95 now, and with constant "Promo training" with the likes of Eric Tyler and Alex Braun on basically every show, my Charisma is up to 85.</p><p> </p><p>
Really enjoying this RTG. I think I'll have a regional TV show covering my home area (Tri-State) within a couple of months. Also contemplating whether I should sign Nemesis to a PPA deal to get a couple matches out of him for ratings.</p>
-
<p>Finally hit Regional in October of 98 using the 97 version of the Cornell-Verse. Based my company out of Mid South, so no real regional battles to hurt my growth. Been running weekly shows, and added a 5th PPV type show to each month just recently so I can work on building up PPV event prestige. </p><p> </p><p>
The biggest thing I've just noticed is SWF bought out NOTBPW in October of 98, so I have all the Stones to myself. </p><p> </p><p>
I was also able to bring in Steve Flash and a couple of other really good guys like Eric Tyler and Pablo Rodriguez. Nemesis would sign for me, but he'd be nearly twice as much as anybody on my roster, and is so over he'd never agree to lose to anyone, so I think I'll stick with what I've got.</p><p> </p><p>
We're almost at the end of 98, and we're chugging along quite comfortable. I've upgraded my production each of the last 3 months as I'm bringing in quite a lot of money. I've got pretty expensive talent at the top, and pretty cheap guys at the bottom to balance it out so we're bringing in about 20 grand a month. I can get a local TV deal in Mid-South once I hit 42 popularity, so that's what I'm chugging towards now. SWF has turned into a monster.</p>

I've rebooted my old SWF save, but it's on YouTube now as opposed to the written out thing. Is it okay to post the YouTube link?

That's a beautiful mask! I wish there was more masked offspring. A phoenix 5 would be neat as a recreation of dos Phoenix, for instance.

King Bison you are my new favorite person in the world. Those swf renders are lovely.
-
So what do you guys do with Matty Faith? He obviously seems like a guy that should be successful in SWF but he has... other issues. Name value is enough and him vs. Jack Bruce just seems like something has to happen at some point.
The steroids are a very good thing early. They can help to raise his star quality I believe. He's awesome in the sense of the stories you can do with him being the son of the iron man. Otherwise, he's awful.
-
Book the big show with the arches you want then build the workers in those matches up to the big event.

I've been fishing for some MAW logos but I can't seem to find any. I know I've seen them on YouTube. Can somebody point me in the right direction?

<p>There was a Mod for 2013 that changed the popularity of a lot of guys, mostly indy guys. It made it to where you were popular in the region you worked, and relatively unknown everywhere else. Take for instance Roger Cage, he'd have overness in tri-state, but be unknown everywhere else. It made it a lot easier and realistic to book regional companies. Nothing I hate more than when my 40 pop guy all across the US wants to complain losing to my 80 pop 1 region guy!</p><p> </p><p>
Anyways, was that mod ever converted over to 2016?</p>
What's going on in your game?

From what I've seen it's a lot harder to gain pop in smaller companies. There seems to be a slight ceiling where a workers pop doesn't go over the companies pop. That all changes when you get PPV. Event are the main focus. Have guys win events and appear in strong angles. When I first brough the big 3 over from 5SSW I booked them in angles with my user where I was rated on entertainment and they were not rated at all. Their pop was in the low 30s in my home region a few months after that.
