[Underrated C-Verse wrestlers]

The Architect is one of my favorites too. I trained the hell out of him in my 2013 save where I took MAW to Cult, and he was a decent promo putting on C+ to B matches constantly.

[Small Questions Thread & "Living FAQ"]

Do AI companies ever set up TV shows without the show already existing in the database? I made a promotion at large regional and left it to the AI, they rose to Cult several months ago, but still have only monthly events.

Just set the manager to manage and note the bodyguard to distract opponent(or interfere if you want them really involved).

[Small Questions Thread & "Living FAQ"]

Based on the description I think storytelling matches are less intense, meaning physical abilities like stamina weigh less heavily but maybe top row skills do too?

<p>AWE(custom promotion Avatar Wrestling Entertainment)</p><p> </p><p>

Bret Heartbreak defeated Mexicain in final round of King of California tournament(filled with defunct GSW alumni on short term contracts), then lost to Zel Quinn in epic 30 minute iron man match for the main title at season finale. Will win midcard title within next 2 events. Then will lose it in cheap way when he's ready to be my figurehead.</p><p> </p><p>

Outlaw Wes Revell will turn heel and join the faction he'd been feuding with previously(my own user error wrote this twist, I kept advancing him in the tournament without booking a proper tournament match, now saying he got favors he needs to return).</p><p> </p><p>

New tag team Black Powah(random gen workers, a brawler and a guy with A performance and Ds in top row, future Dev trainer) wins vacated titles because Diamond Deuce got injured. Surgery failed and increased his time away.</p><p> </p><p>

Jobbing a time declining Latinofear down the card for the next 8 or so months, his stamina won't even let him go 10 minutes without making match storytelling. Mexicain will hover in main event as a perpetual contender/obstacle to my faces.</p>

All you can do now is release him or keep him against his will. He wont work for you again during this contract. You can always hire him again 6 months later, but of course somebody else might have already came in for him.

 

Also you should have given him payed time off if you planned to not use him for a period of time.

[Small Questions Thread & "Living FAQ"]

Is there any point to having more than one referee? As far as I can tell, they don't get tired or suffer any penalty for appearing in every match on multiple shows per week.

 

Only thing I can think of is training a replacement in undercard matches if your main ref is getting up there in years, though you could just hire an established referee when it becomes necessary.

What is the specific mechanical effect of open match? I know what it means in wrestling terms, but it's not as documented as some other notes as far as what it does.

<p>April 2029, big plans for my main event title. Zel Quinn currently has it with 6 defenses, tied for my record. A record I don't want him breaking. Dustin Deuce(now Diamond Deuce) may just be my next figurehead if he can train that charisma stat. Season finale scheduled for August with my tournament title in July, so I'm giving Quinn a kayfabe injury and I'll stick him on commentary to keep his storyline going and pump Deuce's success up.</p><p> </p><p>

Bret Heartbreak just won his na na na na goodbye feud over Bullseye who isn't worth keeping without his awesome tag chemistry with Gravedigga. Hoping to scout out his camera skills since they show as excellent, he may be my figurehead since he's only 31 right now.</p><p> </p><p>

Not sure what to do with the tag titles, currently sitting with Brown Pride. My only face team consists of Deuce and another main eventer, and one of my tag teams has a guy I want to push to the midcard title. Will either keep them main event or bring in my first discovered tag chemistry Cheech Kong and Devyn Retribution, The Chosen Ones.</p><p> </p><p>

Bringing in young workers for tryouts, haven't found another NBT in awhile.</p>

Just cut Tommy Cornell(Donnie J is now my road agent) and Christopher Ball(1k is waaay too much for a jobber who lost locker room leader status and has no above average top row skills) to save money while I fast track my growth with a TV show at Regional. Stuntman got poached by my war rival IWC, and Seignour Richard went to one of the big feds(bye bye A* star quality, time to train Dustin Deuce's charisma to figurehead levels if I can, unless Bret Heartbreak scouts better).

[What's going on in your game?]

Bought the GSW King of California title for sentimental reasons, planning to bring in some GSW alumni and current CZCW and IPW workers on 1/2 appearance contracts to fill out the tournament. Also have a TV show on the CVerse 97 northwest region broadcaster, hoping I don't go bankrupt running 5 events without writtens, but I signed the shortest possible deal, went more long term for events.

 

Also started a war with Mark Smart's IWC, so far none of my dirty tricks have worked but I want to stop them from rising to Cult.

 

Gave TCW a development fed but they haven't been using it for that. I started it off as child company and they filled their own roster, so maybe no room for developmentals.

 

Considering upping new workers and injuries to the top level.

[What's going on in your game?]

<p>July, user initiated rise from small to lightweight= Zel Quinn is now ripped and B- star quality</p><p> </p><p>

September, randomly after my event= Zel Quinn is now flabby with C+ star quality</p><p> </p><p>

Guess the figurehead search goes on, time to scout those other 20 somethings, and see if I can build up Seignour Richard's C- charisma to go with his A* star quality.</p>

I never use comedy or hardcore stuff in TEW since it just doesn't seem to get good results, I tend to favor Japanese Junior, technician, and luchador workers, and end up with a good mix of brawlers just because they're plentiful.</p>

So I have a 26 year old worker with weak on all top row skills and not growing no matter how much I stick him in there with better workers, but excellent performance, strong entertainment and very strong camera. Should I use him like Heath Slater, lots of air time, not alot of wins?

So it's February 2029 and since I'm profitable, I'm bringing in 50 year old retired Tommy Cornell as a road agent for my regional fed.

[Small Questions Thread & "Living FAQ"]

Will indy sleaze events happen to promotions with indy sleaze owners and player character bookers?

 

Also, workers date, workers break up, but does one worker ever break up a relationship between 2 others, Edge/Matt Hardy style?

 

Does respect matter for road agent performance? I know it needs to be high for them to take the role when they retire, but if I force a non road agent into the role will they be better or worse than an official road agent with lower psychology?

Training younger workers, getting them a bit more over before they appear on TV, testing for chemistry, getting people into season finale, all without lowering show grade or eating more valuable time.

Need a new name for my "Roughneck Crew" stable, once I add Major Junta and turn it from a street gang to a mercenary style faction. Membership will be 2 tag teams, "The Soldiaz"(Junta and Shady K), and "Mean Streetz"(Gravedigga and Bullseye).

Does the AI ever offer a contract duration other than 2 years?

[Small Questions Thread & "Living FAQ"]

How does the loyalty system work? I've seen one newly generated wrestler from my dojo become loyal to me for some reason. How does it work? Also is there a way to make worker's loyal to my promotion without the relationship editor?

 

On a similar note. I've had some wrestler's develop a simmering tension/dislike of me because I suspended them. Is there a way to increase relationships with my workers without the relationship editor/do other relationship types occur involving my avatar?

 

Also last question! If I send someone down to a developmental company to train others, will worker's skills still improve if the trainer is a retired worker? Also should I hire some people with decent skills to work in the developmental company or will worker's skills improve even the developmental promotion is only new wrestlers and they aren't wrestling matches with skilled workers?

 

Thanks in advanced!

 

Simmering tensions go away if nothing makes them worse for awhile, I think if someone dislikes or hates your avatar though it stays like that the rest of the game.
