When a worker on a touring contract gets signed, they leave the touring promotion in 7 days.</p>

When will the first post be updated. I can no longer find the questions I posted in this 100 page thread, let alone find the answers (which is what I hate about this thread - too much overlap. I was under the impression the front page was going to have all the answers to questions to save searching,

[Gungner]

So what's up with the minimum requirement show grades that a broadcaster expects?

My event broadcaster expects a 77 (B) minimum... I hold my event, and it scores a 77 (B). So I made it, barely. But I still get the e-mail that they are unhappy...

<p>Is there any downside or issue if I have multiple shows on the same day in the same time slot on my own Broadcaster?</p><p> </p><p>

I've bought out MAW, SAISHO and HIW and have made my own child company. So I have four in total. I set up so HIW broadcasts in Prime Time on Thursdays for a weekly show, but my created child company Broadcasts their 'B' Show on Prime Time Thursday, will this cause any issues?</p>

[Bigpapa42]

Does importing angles, match types and locations from tew13 to tew16 work?

 

Directly? No. But if the 2013 data is converted to 2016, then imported to the other 2016 database, it should be fine.

[AfRoMaN36]

Do workers that are engaged ever "tie the knot" to speak?

 

For example, in my Real World Game, Lana and Rusev are enganged, will they ever actually get married?

 

I've seen that happen once in 13. It is a random occurrence. I tend to just change the relationship myself.

Is there a way to book a freebird tag team(like the new day) and have the third man defend without it being a new title reign?

[liontamer]

for TV deals is home region referring on the large scale i.e. USA or small, i.s. tri-state?. If the former, does it matter if the actual smaller region has coverage assuming if the region as a whole is where you're from/

Title history will change as well, so it will treat the third person as having always been champion, and the person who was replaced will not get any credit for the title reign, unless you replace them back in.</p>

Those of you who run puro companies, do you use storylines even though they aren't required? Also, if you run a touring company, how many weekly events do you run?

[Big Mikey]

Is there any good reason to have a tv show on so many networks. With the real world mod complete now I want to fire up a game. Is there any reason to keep raw on so many different channels? Does it bring in a lot more money? I get keeping it on channels to get my coverage everywhere but I'm talking mostly about the ones that overlap coverage.
