If you click workers another section opens up for stats. It is tricky to find as it has multiple sections under "workers"

I'm hoping internet subscription doesn't get touched too much. I'm losing money from it but gaining popularity which I think is a great trade off. In the age of YouTube and monthly subscriptions, it seems about right.

I'd like to think it was due to my prowess as a booker but it probably came down to this... 1. Reduced all of my production values to their lowest level. I started a new test game and QAW starts like this: Sponsorship Income: $17,928 per month Production Values: Semi-Pro, $500 per show Live Event Experience: Small, $2,500 per show Broadcast Quality: Amateur, $100 per show Music: Generic, $250 per show Subtotal Per show = 3,350 At tiny with no other competition, you can reduce just about all of these items to greatly reduce per show cost Production Values: Limited, 150 per MONTH only Live Event Experience: Volunteers, Free Broadcast Quality: Amateur, $100 per show Music: Generic, $250 per show (I did not downgrade music. If you downgrade it to "small-time" the game warns you that you can get caught using popular music. I imagine someone with a boombox playing WWE's greatest hits Subtotal Per Show: 500 That is 2,850 in savings! This doesn't even include the monthly cost! Remember, you don't receive a penalty to your production values unless another company is running shows in your area that is also a similar size. 2. When I first started, I had one weekly show and one special event. The special event, called "Living in Sin", would go dormat every time I used it. I had to manually activate it to run it again. I guess some could consider this cheating? I look at this as getting to know my roster. Looking back, I could have run a show every day. I averaged about 4-5 shows per week in January. I don't consider it unrealistic if a company is putting on a show 3-5 times a week in different locations. In February, I officially went to two weekly shows and one monthly event. I also set the ticket prices to very cheap for my weekly show and the special show. I was still making a profit per show. My lowest attendance from my shows in January was 246. My highest attendance in Jan was 550 from my shows. I got cocky and set my ticket price to premium for my monthly event "Starshow 2020". I will mention again that this kind of backfired on me. Going to small size means you have increase your production costs to keep up with rivals to avoid penalties. It cost 50,000k to buy a broadcaster that is losing money. Before the rise in size, I thought I could make up the difference in ticket sales and merchandise. I may have grown too fast too soon. The Economy is 36 and Rising Wrestling Industry is 15 and falling

Foxxy is the best! Foxxy is carrying this company! She has had multiple 60+ segments since January and if I could clone her I would. I've also been pushing Becca Barton who is now my top star at the company. I asked her to go down in size but in March she got an event that said she gained weight due to excessive drinking. How big is bulky middleweight anyway? I asked her to get in better shape which she agreed. She can barely go 15 mins now . I changed the heel/face divide to loose and have risen to small after running two weekly shows and one monthly. I had enough to start my own internet broadcaster which really skyrocketed popularity. Unfortunately, I pushed all my production costs to the near-zero level. When I rose to small, my competitors all had better production than me. Even after increasing some broadcasting, music, etc, I'm still getting penalties as it is just too expensive. Should go to just one weekly show? Cut the wage bill and only use stars? So many decisions...

I like the perception system a lot better than the old push system. It's cool to see if my booking strategy is working. I can have multiple major stars and it's not some table I have to stick too. I would want a quicker way to organize my stars. The booking screen does this well. I can right-click on "stars" for example and instantly see "stars" only. I wish this was added some way to the roster screen and the angle booking screen.

I believe this has been removed. It is now based on fan perception so a workers push is determined by how popular they are with the fans relative to your company. I filter by perception in the roster menu to see who my top stars are. This can change as you book which is really cool when trying to push someone

Maybe the wrong thread, but does anyone recommend a good real world mod? Looking for one that doesn't have a lot of companies.

I didn't know that. For some reason I thought that meant the company focuses on man vs woman matches. Definitely will need to experiment more.

Wow, thank you for the quick response! That is great news for my second question. I may start with a company that can get a TV deal or something then. I will definitely experiment more this time

I'm super excited for TEW 2020! I'm looking forward to the new gimmick system, merchandise, and UI/accessibility improvements the most. I have a few questions. Do you think it will be easier to build stars? I tend to play smaller companies but I may start with a medium company as I think I missed out on a ton of features in TEW 2016. I never understood how to make a breakout star or how to get over popularity caps. It may have been easier with bigger companies? Can we play a promotion where female wrestlers and male wrestlers are treated equally in terms of importantance? Similar to the WWE, if I had Sasha Banks vs Bayley headlining my biggest show the audience would treat them the same as Austin vs the Rock. I think the "push" changes address this. I hope that makes sense. In the end, I may need suggestions on how to be a better booker .
