Internet Showings - How fast do they crank up popularity?

[Sagitta]

Asking due to my hitting F's (from F-'s) in most of Canada and western parts of the US despite my only having run a few shows in the east.

0.1% per show, if I remember correctly. It caps at like 11.0 or something.

Just remember that this popularity is vulnerable to decay from lack of visibility. So if you're a small company that runs just one show a month, expect to lose whatever popularity you gain outside your home area.

Pluss, you still gain advantage of the "Spill-Off", which will gain faster then the rest of the world. After your able to move around a bit, you will then have extra gains elsewhere. I use it as much as I can, unless I run out of cash and need the extra sells in DVD (Which is very small to start with).

If you really need a push to help you get over in a certain part of the world, it can be good... otherwise, you'll watch the rest of the world go from 0 to maybe 3-4% and then back down to 0 and stay there until you actually visit.

Yeah it is all about the timing as I have stated on a previous edition on this topic. It´s good to use just before you inted to start visiting and/or broadcasting in other areas so that you do not start at zero. It also helps you set up a secondary most popular area more removed from your original area so that you spillover into more areas. Best use I can think of it is when you are regional and have almost enough popularity in your home area, then start doing internet broadcasts and when that hits its max start working on that secondary area too.
