Pumped to download the update.

[Bigpapa42]

So about to kick off the PWI game I've been planning for a few weeks. Thinking of adding both a singles tournament and a tag team tournament. I love the Ozeki Summit and was gonna lift that, but not sure who it should be named after. Open to suggestions on these.

It occurs to me that if I ever tried to revive WWWE, I'd headhunt Luke Graves from the Club and make him my main star...by giving him a blonde buzzcut and naming him 'Luke Nukem'

[Pteroid]

I'm not certain but I think Sabatino was the icon of the Pre-Scumbaggy Paige days, a generally great wrestler that was an icon for his wrestling and not a hype machine like Terry Thunder. I mean the guy died stopping a robbery for pete's sake, he really seems like a face Allman would be keen to strap to his 'Kill All Sports Entertainment' rocket.

[Tiberious]

So when a new database comes out I have a tendency to start up a bunch of games as different companies without really booking more than a month or 2 to get a feel for the changes. I decided to start up a game as CWT, and was dismayed, though not surprised, to see they had 7 guys on time decline. Something else did surprise me though...

Sonny?

 

Well, with the way CWTs been heading perhaps Sonny main eventing isn't so far fetched. Heck, he might make a good new incarnation of the Great Colorado when the current one hangs up his boots.

 

Edit: Decided to go ahead and make a few alts for Sonny Parks as the Great Colorado:

If I can ask, what has been changed? Is it purely minor fixes like names?

[Big Roguey]

If I can ask, what has been changed? Is it purely minor fixes like names?

 

KNOWN ISSUES TO BE FIXED

-"Johnny Hollywood_alt.jpg" should be renamed "Johnny Hollywood_alt1.jpg" so it lines up with the AWF contract bio.

-Gerardo Ramirez should be speaking Fluent Spanish not French.

-Ryu Arishima should be available to work in Australia, not Europe.

 

I think as well it fixed Super Azul being debuted before he should as well as anything else that was brought up. Not sure off of the top of my head.

[jhd1]

Michigan's right. There are a few changes - nothing absolutely massive though. If you've started a game and have made decent progress already then there isn't a desperate need to start again. That said, it is definitely worth downloading, if only for the purposes of future saves.

[Big Roguey]

Michigan's right.

 

Always am.

[Bigpapa42]

Sabatino seems like more of a LWA thing to me with Alvaro Buey wanting to honour both him and his father. For PWI, maybe something involving Gordon Patterson? He was always venomously anti-SE and could play into Allman's delusions of grandeur.

 

Okay, I'm not finding Gordon Patterson. Owner of RAWA?

[Big Roguey]

Okay, I'm not finding Gordon Patterson. Owner of RAWA?

 

Deceased worker.

[jhd1]

Okay, I'm not finding Gordon Patterson. Owner of RAWA?

 

Gordon Patterson is deceased. You'll need to open the filter on the Characters screen for him to appear in the list. He was the first ever WWWE champion and helped set up the company with Albert Hirsch and Eddie Bloom.

 

RAWA have no canon owner at this point.

[Bigpapa42]

Doh, didn't do that. I looked in the Hall but didn't switch to deceased on the people list. Thanks. Definitely a possibility.
