Malioc Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 [QUOTE=cyberkitten01;475282]Perhaps it's in his personality to be Mercenary, or the equivilant of Freelancer in '07 in that he's worked for you and now he wants to work elsewhere, and then he might come back again[/QUOTE] He's more a loyal guy. Besides, mercenary shouldn't do that anyway. It's more a change of air - leaving. Plus, he even said in the news, that he's 100% sure, that he won't ever work for me again, while I don't see any reason for that ... grudge(?). [QUOTE=Hyde Hill;475295]Or you have made some mistakes booking him and or in backstage incidents he was involved in (not necessaraley started.) Or ou fired one of his friends and or family.[/QUOTE] Nope. His moral never dropped. He was also never victim nor initiator of a backstage incident. He had the biggest amount of matches. Lost not one single match in 1 1/2 years and defended my Mid Card title on 168 occasions. And I even hired his brother Luis Jr. (and Luis' girlfriend) and pushed him to the Main Event. The only irregular thing for him is, that I never pushed Gino above Mid Card even though he had enough popularity for a Main Eventer. (Don't wanted to ruin his ego.) But he never got angry, so I don't think it's neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because it SOUNDS like that whenever you first attempted to resign him, he considered you too big. And sadly in situations like that, the mindset will become "I'm leaving", even if you job him down to where he wouldn't be too big anymore.

Malioc Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Mhm... Good possibility. Short time ago I raised to Cult. When I tried to renew his contract for the first time, I still was Regional and he was around C/C- popularity. Indeed he considered himself "too big". By now even his old popularity (after his decline I started to job him out) shouldn't be a problem anymore. But you're right, that could really be the problem. Well, I hope I'll get him to sign again in a couple of months (presumed he doesn't get signed up to a written contract by another fed) despite his quotes about not wanting to work for me ever again...

scorpion Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I was playing as a regional fed, and I had finally managed to sign, after numerous attempts, both Bumfholes and the Young Guns. I had just had the Young Guns win my tag titles and they were about to turn heel to feud with the Bumfholes, when I get an e-mail saying Steve Gumble, in prison for 15 years for murder 2.

crice1007 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Dark Angel is frustrated about not wrestling at all in the last 6 months. It's curious, because he's been under contract with NOTBPW the entire time. And they have 2 TV shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malioc Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Sure he isn't injured? Those messages also occur, when a wrestler is off air for a long time due to an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eayragt Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 [QUOTE=Malioc;475170]Gino Montero declined my extension offers. He was always very happy and it's not even about my company size (cult). But still I constantly get the message, that he wants to leave my federation and [I]never return[/I]. What did I do? What can I change? That's a tragedy...[/QUOTE] Have you ever editted his contract? For example, he signs for a fourth promotion and hands in his notice with you, so you edit the contract up from 7 days to... more than seven days?

b0shey Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 strange things happened in my game. Sting died of an OD 3 weeks into my game and Ron Killings got a Cracked Sternum at the carwash.

Malioc Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Well, now Gino is gone. We'll see, if the little punk returns some day. -- I just have to reach National level. Then it won't be the Montero family anymore, who rules Mexico. =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comradebot Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Unemployed ever since WLW collapsed almost a year ago, The Tic finally snapped and attacked a police officer. He's doing one year in prison, where I can only imagine that someone as petite as he is will be VERY popular. Poor little guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praguepride Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I don't know if this is weird or just frustrating. The Mexico Hardcore fed opened up recently and the game generated a random announcer for them. The next month the random faceless announcer won the "best announcer in the industry" internet poll. Pulling him up, he's got E popularity in Mexico, but more importantly he has B+ in microphone, charisma, and announcing, and an 'A' in acting. Poor MHW though, he's costing them $1100 an appearance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malioc Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 In my Mexico game the programm created an A* (acting B+) [I]and[/I] a B+ (acting A) announcer on the 2nd day of the diary. Both in Mexico. The A* got the "best announcer" poll after a few weeks and once again half a year later. -- And now ask me, who my current announcers are... =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyde Hill Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 It generally happens if the game sees a lack of a certain type of worker in a certain region and then random generates them. Sometimes they can be very good like the two above examples. I had some A grade refs pop up in Japan and Mexico myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Aussie Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 Something funny that happened in one of my games: Bryan Vessey starts an argument with Shuji Inukai who now harbors strong dislike of him. One week later and Bryan Holmes is now hated by Mito Miwa after an argument between the two. You're think that two veterans would have the good sense to get into an argument with people that are completly loyal to the promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1PWfan Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 On my ROF game, I gave my user character strong friendship with British Samurai, with the backstory that they worked together running the Turnbuckle Dojo. I run a show, and then promptly get the owner goal 'Norman Saxon (that's me) must have B momentum when the time finishes' Maybe not strange per se, but that's the first time I've ever seen a user character in an owner goal.

Mtm2k6 Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 That doesn't seem too bad a goal :p I've noticed that in 1 of every 3 games, PGHW will fire Bryan Holmes, even though he has loyalty to Sadaharu Jimbo. Now he hates him, obviously lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffman Posted August 7, 2008 Share Posted August 7, 2008 January '98: Lex Luger is jailed for two years for perverting the course of justice, and is promptly fired by WCW (me). For some reason I can really easily picture Lex Luger in a prison uniform. Also, ECW decided to hold their Holiday Hell PPV at the Universal Studios in Orlando.
