Harts4Life Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 So I've been seeing this sort of story over the last few weeks: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v208/Harts4Life/newsstory.gif Here's the thing ... it happened just after I dropped from Global to Cult, and this is what my ratings have been looking like: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v208/Harts4Life/ratings.gif As you can see, I've been getting these messages after my highest rated shows. Anyone else getting this odd occurrence, and is this possibly something I should be posting in the Tech Support thread? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ampulator Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 What's the size of the network and what's the size of your promotion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comradebot Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Did you happen to fall in size by chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 You are simply no longer big enough (size wise) for the network to want to keep you on air. The TV network is probably set for a minimum size of National, which you no longer qualify for. Your drop in size and their ratings warnings are just a roundabout way of saying "we no longer have confidence in your brand" despite your actual ratings. If you are actually still big enough for the network then you might need to drop your show length down to 90 minutes... networks don't like giving 2 hours to cult level promotions. Failing either of those working, you are going to be dropped by the network completely in the near future which will give you prestige hit. Which hurts.

Hyde Hill Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 So drop the network before they drop you that way you can avoid the prestige drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comradebot Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 Right, I missed the comment in the middle of the screenshots about falling to Cult... Yeah, that's what does it. They don't ACTUALLY care about the ratings, just that you're not as big of a company as you used to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoganRodzen Posted May 11, 2010 Share Posted May 11, 2010 CBA is the biggest network in the CVerse. You'd need to have the popularity in the US and Canada for the network to like your shows. Like everyone else said it's because you dropped down to Cult. That network will only deal with International and Global promotions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
