It sounds like you either forgot to save the branding for the TV show or you were mistaken about Joe's brand assignation. I've run several tests and there doesn't appear to be any way that someone on brand 1 can complain about being left off a brand 2 show, or vice versa.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Thanks for the response Adam. I will continue to run the game and see if the error occurs again. Joe is assigned correctly and the Brands are on, so I am not sure. If it happens again I will look into sending you the save. Thanks for all your hardwork!</p>

For example, I have the same broadcaster showing my TV and one monthly event, and PPV carriers showing just an event of their own..</p>

I tend to use it every month, with my workers on written deals, its just extra money, the way I did it, I signed with only high risk, and run a kind of extreme version, as my PPVs are all low risk broadcasters..</p>

<p>Hey, just a quick question regarding promotion popularity. I am usually hitting B+ shows with a C+ popularity in america, only time I don't get B+ it's an A, my shows are on TV and until the most recent patch every show increased my popularity in every region of USA. However, since the patch I now only increase popularity in the region I ran the show in, has this been changed? Is that now how it should be? I assume not but wanted to ask before posting in tech forum</p><p> </p><p>

For some reason my PPVs have always only increased in the region the show is ran in, Adam confirmed that was a bug a few weeks ago but even with the recent patches that never fixed itself, I'm assuming that's because I started the game before those patches were released?</p><p> </p><p>

cheers</p>

Where you can see storylines, Hire Local, Borrow From Dev, etc. It should be something like "Alliance Titles." You enter that and you there is a button on that screen that says "Borrow." That's how you borrow and Alliance Title!</p>

I think I finally figured it out. You negotiate the special as an event, but do it with a free to air broadcaster (i.e. SNME on NBC). When you run the event, in the locker room screen, in the top left hand corner, you can select the broadcasters that are eligible to show the event. Pick the one you want. For example for SNME, pick NBC and not closed circuit.</p>

In the in game settings under Delete Data there is a Create MDB File button.</p>

<p>So I've hired Justice Jolson in my MAW game, as advised due to his great menace. </p><p> </p><p>

He's a lower midcarder and not over at all, however I gave him the 'Savage' gimmick and he's already got it to legendary. How do I capitalise on this? How should I get him to improve and get over?</p><p> </p><p>

Obviously winning matches is a priority, but I'm worried that with only monthly shows, I'm gonna miss a trick</p>

It just means the fans don't expect you to adhere to standard face-heel matchups. You don't get penalized for heel-heel or face-face. </p><p> </p><p> If the product doesn't call for face/heel, that's a bit different.</p>

<p>Can wrestlers still get stolen during touring contracts? I'm wondering because I've never seen the AI go after anyone on a touring deal but they'll go after PPA's quite often.</p><p> </p><p>

I mean specifically they get signed and immediately start instead of fulfilling the tour contract.</p>
