It's real hard to run 2 'A' shows per week without a brand split. Involving everyone and advancing their storylines twice a week is exhausting.

<p>TV Show Vs. Televised Event</p><p> </p><p>

Is there any purpose in having a tv show? About twice as many people will come to a televised event as compared to a tv show.</p>

<p>Is worker chemistry random from game to game, or static?</p><p> </p><p>

I had a mess about game with PGHW, as I want to start a proper save with them, and I found that Yoshimi and Ugaki, who consistently got 99-100 match ratings on by RTG save, had awful chemistry and my match ratings were really poor with them. </p><p> </p><p>

Seemed a little odd to me, being protege/mentor and all that</p>

Are there any penalties for using a wrestler as a manager who doesn't have manager as a potential role?

[D-Lyrium]

No penalties, no. He's rated the same as any other manager. He'll be unhappy if you assign Manager as his actual push, but there's no need to do that to get the benefits of it.

<p>Greetings, so I have just started my latest rock hard game, and my one locker room leader, Tommy Dreamer is concussed, but still available for angles, but he is still appearing on my list of absent workers, so now it thinks I have no locker room leaders, -6 on my backstage, taking me to 69%, penalties all round, so I have to pay for transport, which I can't afford.. He is available surely, as I can use him.. He should not be classed as absent, I can use the lad in every angle I run, if I wanted to..</p><p> </p><p>

[WynterWarm12]

Only major angles count towards storyline's. Are you sure the angles weren't minor?

 

Most of the time I use angle writer/free style angle that are set to Major. I'll see what happens when I do another major angle. That happened in my Brock vs Samoa Joe storyline before. After a couple angles, it went back to normal.

 

Thanks for answering

If a worker hands in his notice and leaves, is he ever again willing to return?

<p>Is there someone that could do a map break down similar to this for the areas,</p><p> </p><p>

<p>Is there a way to have a promotion retain it's start date while also making it not open automatically? </p><p> </p><p>

For example, I'm trying to set G.L.O.W. to open 2016 while also keeping note it began in 1986. Is there a way I can do this or no? I tried the "but not before" option but that doesn't seem to work.</p>

[QFresh]

Hey people, I'm looking to put together a Lucha Underground-esque promotion, but am unsure as to which of the Lucha promotions to use as Mexican homebase ie AAA - LU.

 

Opinions are welcome. I'd say SOTBPW as they'll do just about anything to get, and to stay ahead... But would OLLIE go this route as a means of trying to re-invigorate itself?

where do I go to find out how much time is left for a TV show on a network/broadcaster?

I think his inclusion in that section is simply there to remind you that he cannot wrestle.</p>

B+ is my absolute highest worker, and this is at Global. The worker in question is regularly facing and beating other Main Eventers who are B

 

Crisis averted I've managed to get my worker in question up to B+ and about 30 days before the owner goal deadline.

 

I hadn't quite noticed, but my top 3 workers have been at A popularity for a few months. I checked the editor, and my worker with the goal was about 0.5 away from B+ overness, so I think it was just slow going. I had her win one of my Main Event titles, and only my last show she beat one of the A overness workers clean in a title defence, and boom, she's now B+ Thanks to everyone who made suggestions

guys got a question,

does fresh match up (between workers that never booked together on the match with different match type) could increase the overall rating?

[TeemuFoundation]

where do I go to find out how much time is left for a TV show on a network/broadcaster?

"Broadcasters" on your main screen.

 

You can scroll through your Event and TV Broadcaster deals, and they will show you how much time/how many episodes you have left.

Don't think so.

[VBigB]

Where is the setting that lets you change the relative number of male and female workers that get generated over time?

 

I posted screenshots and details on how to do this in your original thread.
