tom_wk Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Do dark matches affect the show's grade?? It seems obvious that they don't affect the TV rating, but how about its grade, and to what extent? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob4590 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 They don't directly affect the grade at all, but if you have poorly rated dark matches, then they can drag the crowds mood down and thus cause some of the early segments in the main show to be rated lower than they might otherwise be, thus possibly (very slightly) affecting the overall show grade.

tom_wk Posted July 2, 2007 Author Share Posted July 2, 2007 Ah that makes sense. So I can use the dark matches to try and get people over without directly affecting the show's grade, but there is a risk of pissing off the crowd so that they enjoy the later matches less.

Rob4590 Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Yeah - maybe just finish your dark time with an angle that is gonna get good results eg a main eventer doing a quick 1 minute promo - that will get the crowds mood UP and then can work the opposite way - that the ratings of the opening segments may even go up slightly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
