Phantom Stranger Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 [QUOTE=Zeel1;648052]Okay, so one day I do a test game, and sim the default data into, like, April of 2009, just to see how everything goes. I like what I see, and my curiosity gets to me, and I end up starting a new promotion at that point. I'm getting everything ready, and scouting for high-level, high-skilled and un-exclusive wrestlers to be my first World Champion, when I come across a certain man named Dan Stone Jr. I couldn't believe it. I don't know how it happened, but somehow Dan Stone Jr. was fired from NOTBPW. I don't what's more surprising - Jr. being released by his dad, or the fact that TCW, SWF or some Japanese promotion hadn't swiped him yet. Total lucky break for me there, even more so that he agreed to sign onto my initial roster.[/QUOTE] He'll have gotten too over to sign on with a Cult promotion in Canada.

Comradebot Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 [QUOTE=Phantom Stranger;648057]He'll have gotten too over to sign on with a Cult promotion in Canada.[/QUOTE] Aye, that's a pretty common occurance. All the Stones and DeColts tend to be at risk of this, especially if they start off with a short contract, meaning the AI won't have enough time to get there overness in line with what is required. Personally, I'd think the fact it's a family owned company should trump some of that... atleast if they have a loyal personality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen Dan Stone Jr's contract come up in a couple of test games. And he will not sign with another promotion. He just also won't resign with NOTBPW. So the relationship is enough to keep him from signing elsewhere during that time, just not enough to make him resign. The DeColt's won't leave in my current game, though. Annoying.

Hyde Hill Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Aye seems the decolts are more loyal or that the overness limit in case of loyalty has gone up to B+ instead of B- for a cult fed. (not A explaining the Stones.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpapa42 Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Not a strange event so much as something that amused me. This is Rich Money's overness in my SWF game after his A* match with Sean McFly...

Comradebot Posted June 15, 2009 Share Posted June 15, 2009 [B]January 1st, 1976:[/B] Japanese pro-wrestler Botan Oonishi debuts [B]January 2nd, 1976:[/B] Japanese pro-wrestler Botan Oonishi is arrested and inprisoned for grand theft auto. In his defense, it's highly unlikely he'll ever make enouge money from wrestling to buy his own car, since he's completely and utterly devoid of any redeeming quality (well, in Japan atleast).

D-Lyrium Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I just tried to sign The Wizard of Ottawa (as a manager without the gimmick), and he wants more per appearance than Victoria Stone. I think I'll find someone else, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlameSnoopy Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Gaash.. While playing the '75 mod with my CWB save, I have jobbed Austin McCoy out like ten times to my crappier wrestlers like Demon Anger and Spite, but still he keeps having D+ in New England.. Gotta hate those caps :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crice1007 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Not sure if this qualifies as strange, but I set Edd Stone up to have pretty low risk shoulder surgery. Of course, it gets botched, and now he's out for 120 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaySo Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Give him the WWE 1997 Bryan Pillman treatment and have Edd Stone with crutches hanging out with Tommy Cornell. During Cornell matches, Edd could distract the referee as Cornell uses one of Edd crutches to knock the opponent out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waghlon Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I dont know if its strange of just a coincidence (sp?), but in C-Verse 97, i got two news about the same worker: The first one: Roberto Garcia upbeat about retiring The second one: Roberto Garcia in drugs death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyde Hill Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Yeah somehow that happens a lot with the druggies. retire = death. still a strange event tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
