rip to the greatest job-based love i've ever known

I put on my finale the last day of the year, and before I start my next TV show, I start to plan the next finale, starting with the World Title match. Whatever I think would be the most interesting match between stars will be the main event for the World Title. Once that's decided, I think about how the participants in the story would go from where they currently are at the start of the year, to fighting for the biggest prize in the company by the end of the year. If the belt isn't on one of them to start with, I'll work backwards to decide when would be the right time to for one of them to get it. Rinse and repeat for the rest of the titles and whatever other matches warrant being on the finale. I probably plan around half of the show at the start of the year and let the rest slide into place based on what feels right when I work my way closer. It's all very fluid. I've had years where the entire finale is set in stone on the 1st day of the year, and ones where I scrap the entire card a couple months before it happens to start fresh. Roll with the punches. If there's an injury that takes away an upcoming big match, don't think of it as a story being ruined, look at it as an opportunity to build it bigger the next time around. In my 10 year story, a couple of the years were chewed up when my figurehead was caught in a steroid ring scandal 5 months before the big 1v1, so I fired her. Disappointing at the time, but it opened up new story beats that I hadn't considered before. The big heel bragged about scaring the crowd's hero so much she had to take PEDs to keep up and went on HHHesque Reign of Terror that was Actually Good. Once the scandal died down, I had my Ministry rip-off bring the figurehead back into the fold as a cultist desperate for guidance. She built her confidence back up but still faltered around the big heel, who retired the figurehead's mentor while she was away. These are pieces of the story I never would've added if I didn't think about how to turn a failure into a success. I don't care too much about stats other than Star Quality unless they are really terrible. If someone gives me 70 psychology and 70 stamina, I'll usually make it work. Popularity matters a decent amount. If their Popularity Cap isn't in the 90s I won't push them to the top of the card. Planning big matches a year in advance gives me plenty of time to really push them and see where they level off before I commit to something major.

I always do when it's available, but I haven't seen a substantial jump in rating above what the workers can normally do.

I'm over 26 years into a save. A big thing keeping my interest is protecting matches. I've had a feud that's been building on and off for almost 10 years without a 1v1. That match is finally happening at the end of this year and I couldn't be more excited to follow through with this giant story. My advice would be to look at your current stars and any potential stars. Think about their characters and why they would fight each other. If you find some pairings that are really intriguing, protect those. Save them for your biggest show, make sure they aren't thrown together on television, keep them away in tournaments. It's something to build to and a fun little restriction that forces you to think outside the box to keep guys apart.

You're still killing it Poputt. Bunrakuken Torii and Yoshinaka Taku became the top stars in Japan because of your renders.

Fantastic man! When the drugs send him to an early death, it'll make a great memorial picture

<p>If I could have the whole game done by you Poputt, I would.</p><p> </p><p> Does anyone have a new render of The Hype/Todd Cusson? I'm playing a 97 game and I want him to be my main guy once he's out of rehab. The current render is pretty good, and I'm willing to use it, but I feel someone that flashy and named The Hype should have a little more outward arrogance. I've tried looking and can't find anything, but it's entirely possible I missed him somewhere in the Dropbox.</p>

Timothy Hawk's relationship screen has "Married to someone outside the wrestling business" and "Dating Kelly King" at the same time. Either that's a mistake or the wrestling world is about to get rocked by another scandal with Hawk trying to juggle Paige as his fiancee, King as his girlfriend, and a secret marriage

Adonis was one of the guys I was way into in the previous Thunderverse, so his old look was what I associated him with. I imagined a Chris Masters type instead of Tyler Breeze kind of dude</p>

<p>I couldn't decide what company to use, so I created my own. Professional Wrestling STARDOM (not to be confused with Pro Wrestling STARDOM >_>), based in the Great Lakes region. I started at Cult and cheated myself $50 million to open a broadcaster, a dojo, and a developmental territory, leaving slightly over a $1 million to work with. My first shows were a G1 Climax style tournament to crown a world champ. It was kind of booked on the fly, with a vague idea of who I wanted my stars to be: Leati The Headhunter, Ace Smith, and Alejandro Iglesias. They all got fairly popular through the tournament, but Ace most of all.</p><p> </p><p> <span>http://i.imgur.com/5CF5W2z.png</span></p><p> </p><p> So I gave the belt to him. I'm now on the first day of April and I've stolen a couple of workers, but I'm probably not going to do that anymore. If I wanted to use those workers, I would have played those companies.</p><p> </p><p> My top 5 right now:</p><p> </p><p> <span>http://i.imgur.com/WJ4dDLr.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p> I'm going to have Ace vs. Gilmour main event the next PPV, with Ace winning to solidify himself as <em>the</em> guy.</p>
