Hey Sock you can gain pop from a 3 minute angle but it is significantly less than what you'd be able to gain from the same rated longer angle. This is directly out of the 2016 player's handbook in the section called "Angle and Worker Popularity Changes." Topic 13 of 45.

 

 

So I just read it, but I didn't see anything about it being significantly less for a shorter angle vs a longer one- just that angle length is a factor in pop gain. Obviously it is reasonable that a longer angle would gain a bit more, but I can't imagine it being drastic- how much more valuable is an extra 2 minutes of angle time?

hmm not sure honestly. I usually either do really short realistic 4-6 minute segments or really long 10-15 minute angles. With those I see a noticeable difference in pop gains if it's a good angle, but I haven't really done heavy testing of the formula.

 

I'm just saying for trying to build a worker's pop in time to hit a 45 day deadline, go as long as your product will allow with that angle. No?

Did you try main eventing her and giving her a decisive win in A* matches against your next most popular worker?

 

Also try getting her in 100 rated angles as well.

 

Everyone, the puzzle is solved. To get a worker over, just put them in 100 rated segments, simple as that :p

 

Where people keep getting "6 minutes" for angles is, I think, from the penalty main eventers get in an angle that is less than 6 minutes.

<p>Hello again! <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> lol</p><p> </p><p>

I've run into a problem. I have multiple storylines where angles/matches were rated nothing but 80s and 90s, but their storyline heat is REALLY low. Like, E rated. What's the deal?</p>

In addition to the question above, are the two ratings given to the competitors after the match just their scores from the in-ring ratings or does it include everything that goes into the same overall match rating (like star quality, drug habits, etc.)?

Are industry and economy perfectly cyclical - from 100 to 0 back to 100? They're both in Actual Biblical Hell in my game. I'm thinking if they're cyclical I can spend big on extra shows/bigger names to pass my "grow the company" owner goal. If not, uh, welp

 

No..... and yes.

 

There's an option in Settings to make it cyclical, but it's off by default.
