Eisen-verse Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Thanks for your help, APU! How long were the angles? Segment 1 was 3 minutes Segment 2 was 3 minutes Segment 3 was 5 or 6 minutes What were the other workers rated on and what was their skill level? Segment 1 was Marat=Menace; A* star=overness Segment 2 was Marat-Menace; A star= overness Segment 3 was Marat=Menace; A* Star = overness, A star= overness, A star= Entertainment What was the angle before it rated? Before segment 1, the preceding segment was a B- match Before segment 2, the preceding segment was a C+ match Before segment 3, the preceding segment was a B+ match Did any of the angles move forward a story and if so what was its heat rating? I would venture to guess that the first 2 segments would not have moved along a storyline. Khoklov isn't in an active storyline (game-wise) with either man. The final segment though, that would have moved along one of my bigger storylines between the A*, A, and second A wrestler. The heat was around a B+ or A prior to the show. Now, it's sitting at a B- (the final segment's grade). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Wolf Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 OK well then the first two segments were dinged for time at the very least, under four minutes will get a ding for not being long enough to get the point across. Other than that off nights or any number of other things could have gone wrong but I'd check the dirt sheet if I were you. Plus iI don't know how far in you are but Marat's English still isn't that good. The third segment may have gotten a ding because the segment before it was better. Unlike the time ding this can be pretty hefty. I've seen a segment that when moved around would have scored an 92 but because the segment before it scored a 93 it drop down to a 70 something.

I don't think Authority Figure appears on a bio at all. I've noticed that someone becomes an authority figure when there are more managers than what the game says is needed and the worst of the becomes an Authority. So since Jessie, Hannah, Emma Chase and even Kristen Pearce are all better than BJ O'Neill, she auto-pushes to an Authority. I usually only use autopush for in ring workers. Also, Out of ring workers are content in any out of ring position (so a manager can be pushed as an Announcer/Colour/Authority/Referee/Road Agent without any complaints). Basically, don't worry about it too much, you can still use her as you'd use any manager.</p><p> </p><p> 2. Don't push him as anything and I don't think he gets annoyed (I could be wrong). If you need to, use him in the dark segments or in an unrated role, just to keep him happy. I wouldn't send him on vacation, since he has three positive relationships, which help the slightly rocky backstage.</p><p> </p><p> 3. Depends on their attitude. I've had drug/steroid users (my best example was Dharma Gregg) go clean after a fatherly approach, where as a guy like Bryan Vessey requires firing and a guy like Big Smack Scott will probably never go clean, since he's just that much of a dick. Also, it may not be an immediate clean, since depending on the level of use, there may be traces left over (once again, haven't experienced this, so could be wrong.)</p><p> </p><p> 4. I'm not sure, but I imagine if he thinks they are important enough he would.</p><p> </p><p> 5. I don't think it's a massive hit...probs just a prestige hit...I don't actually know since it's never happened to me...I've always caught my users in-house.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdStringPG Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Richard Eisen gets pissed if you don't use him at least in every other PPV. At least that's my experience when playing as owner and booker. If you really don't have anything for him by way of storylines (and I'd understand if you don't - unlike Vince McMahon, his entertainment skills are average at best), you can book him in PPV pre-show angles, e.g., have him make a speech thanking the fans for coming and the TV viewers for buying the PPV (generic promo), and he won't raise a fuss.

For whatever reason, Richard Eisen hasn't been mad with me at all. I haven't used him since January/February (and I'm now in July). I haven't even placed him in dark scenarios; he seems content. That COULD be because he's been loyal to me since the early months of 2013 (game-developed; I broke up a fight between he and Everest and fired his a$$ over it).

Bull Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 So, I'm confused about angle grades in the SWF. For those who don't want to be spoiled AT ALL about an upcoming SupremeTV episode then don't go any farther. For others, you can highlight the info below. Another possible variable is language issues. an example: I've noticed when I bring in workers who only speak Spanish to SWF they tend to get a language issue ding in the dirt sheet regardless of what they are rated on. . and I'm pretty sure your guy doesn't speak fluent English so if at a random point his angles start grading out higher then language is a solid culprit. .

tywood2022 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I recently started playing again and almost immediately made one of my biggest signigns: Nicky Champion! Now 6 weeks later and I realize I have no plans or ideas for him whatsoever. Anyone have any ideas? He's #2 in popularity behind Jack Bruce and the Supreme Challenge is just around the corner.

Irish Wolf Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Some one's list of top six songs that start with siren's Personally I like As for Zim-Me's grunge I'd go with something by Alice In Chains all definitely gritty mostly due to Layne Staley's voice.

Sky Walker Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 <p>I love SWF the most so I started playing with them after I got TEW2013.</p><p> </p><p> Anyway, I got Jack Bruce win the title off Frehley after Frehley finished the feud with Vengeance. Jack Bruce now defends against him, while I pushed Lobster Warrior over Marat Khoklov in their second PPV match, doing what someone already said in this topic: Hyping the match with Lobster Warrior doing promos and getting wins over other mid card heels, which got him pretty over enough. Gilmore and Eisen are still feuding, both having wins over one another. Jerry Eisen turned and helped his bro to win the title and now Joe Sexy and Greg Black are joining the fight, so I plan a fatal 4 way at Master of Puppets for NA title. Tag division is weak, as most teams are lower mid carders. I got All-Americans retain against Bumfholes 2 times, against The Pain Alliance and now I brought The McWades in the company so they will retain against them too. I dont plan on breaking them soon, as I dont know what to do with them in singles competition yet. I dont have any stories for Enforcer Roberts and Squeeky McClean thou, and they are both heel, I was just using them to put over Lobster Warrior and put up a nice fight against main event face guys when needed.</p><p> </p><p> My first Supreme TV got A, while the rest of them all got B, not losing popularity in any of them. I also rise to International size, which was quite amusing to see. Backstage rating isnt so good thou. DuBois got 2 suspensions already, I guess the 3rd and firing will come soon.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
