steev42 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 So I'm running as SWF, and two shows in a row now, I've gotten a note that I'm not having enough hot storylines, and it's hurt my popularity. So after the second, I went through, and took note of my storylines and their current ratings. I have 10 storylines running. The best two are both B ratings; I have 4 storylines at B-, one each at C, C-, D+, and D. So my question is this--does anyone know what the breaking point is on that note? Do I have to get them to A ratings? Another one up to a B or a B to a B+? Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Wayne Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 you need to build up the ratings for the lower rated storylines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Shape Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 [QUOTE=sprinklefurball;446716]Pretty Sure they have to be A[/QUOTE] Don't think so...I think one or two with B+ heat should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladamire Dracos Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 What's your pop? I think your top storyline rating has to match that (IE, If your popularity is B+, at least one of your stoylines has to be B+ or better), not sure though since I tend to book less "entertainmenty" promotions.

shipshirt Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 It looks like you have way too many storylines and it's dragging you down. If you have one really solid storyline and 9 crappy ones it's going to bring you down. I would stick to maybe 5 storylines and really focus on making those hot.

The Shape Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 No that's not it. So long as you have enough good ones you can have as many as you want. I wonder though, does a story with low heat actually have an adverse effect on seg ratings? And how much of a benefit does being in stories give angles and workers?

steev42 Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 Thanks everyone for the advice. I figured I'd get a slightly more varied response than I did...I might have to try killing a few of the lower-rated storylines. And I've already been trying to get the top ones more momentum.

Hyde Hill Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 One thing that seems to help me is have your lower stoylines piggyback on the more popular ones. The Angle Face off but no contact is a great example. 2 rated workers 6 non rated workers. equels 4 storylines getting a good rating if you use your top 2 workers as the rated ones that is.
