Otherwise people would abuse this as you can just cancel heel turns.</p>

<p>Championship Changes</p><p> </p><p>

I am running a real world mod as a reborn WCW. I have booked a tag team match in the main event of Nitro. Seth Rollins (WCW Champion) & Sasha Banks vs. CM Punk & Becky Lynch (Women's Champion) with Rollins and Banks to win. </p><p> </p><p>

I have both titles on the line. Will Sasha Banks become the women's champion? As I need to give her a momentum boost before my first PPV to give the women's championship match a bigger grade which I really need.</p>

Do the majority of your fans like fast-paced matches or slow paced matches? MMA style submission grappling or do they just want to see some popular charismatic workers go at it?</p><p> </p><p> Let's say your audience is a percentage.</p><p> </p><p> If you have Key Feature Modern and nothing else than 100% of your audience will prefer matches in that style.</p><p> </p><p> If you add a complimentary product like Lucha Libre and Daredevil then 100% of your fans will still prefer a fast-paced athletic style. 33% split of styles.</p><p> </p><p> Now if you decide to add Realism as a Key feature. You will bring a new contrarian fan-base into your product who do not like the fast-paced flippy stuff and want hard-hitting and/or slow bouts.</p><p> </p><p> With Key Feature of Lucha, Daredevil, Realism, and Modern you would have a 25% split of your fan base for each style. Drop Realism to heavy and that split changes to be more percentage of the audience for those 3 key features and slightly less for Realism. I'm not good at math, but you see what I'm getting at.</p><p> </p><p> The math changes when you add in multiple products of multiple levels. So if you have all 12 product styles as key features then you have 1/12 of your product for each type of fan.</p><p> </p><p> This as you know is one of the main factors in how your matches are graded.</p>

<p>Are there any quicker ways to do a watcher game? I wish TEW had a holiday mode like Football Manager.</p><p> </p><p>

I'm currently looking into auto-clickers for inactive windows but struggling to find anything suitable.</p>

[Blackman]

You just need to come back once in a while to click next year. Better this way, as you can see the results of the year without seeing the "spoilers" for the latter years.

[bonnie]

What's the best way for managers to gain popularity? Do they gain it just by being at matches, or is it only from angles?

[TheJG]

Multi Advance, you'll need to turn it on in the settings.

 

Thank you! This is exactly what I wanted and I'm a little embarrassed I didn't realise it was there.

[Terminal]

Is there a way to see a detailed description of a past shows' angles/matches, or can you only see the summary of the show in show history?

[Dr_Avalanche]

There is not. The summary is the only thing that remains afterwards. Take screenshots if you need to preserve information for later.

Okay, thanks.

What are the main stats I'm looking at for 'Story Telling' and 'Comedy' matches? Is it literally just comedy? Psychology? Entertainment?

[derlele]

I just saw that my Champion is working for another promotion, which holds shows on the same night as i do from time to time. The thing is he always show up for them, but never for me. Is there a way to influence this? Offer him a better deal than the other Promotion, or am i stuck in this situations.

[madjock]

<p>how long would it take for CANN to kick me off channel if I run it with only midcard and below matches ?</p><p> </p><p>

would still have ME and UPPMID doing angles....</p>

You're going to have to get past them. I don't think relationships influence this, but I'm not sure.</p>

Do you get the repetitive booking penalties for pre-show matches? Was wanting to run a bunch of dark matches with the same prospects against a high psychology wrestler but don't want to blow up the ratings with penalties.

The worst that can happen is that you get a match that lowers the mood but that shouldn't be the case with even half-decent workers.</p>

Say I run the same match five times in pre show. Then I run it on tv. Will that televised match be subject to the repetitive match penalties?</p>

[nymetfan]

<p>There used to be a huge pack of storyline templates that had like 200 something storylines outlined. I think it was called the megapack or something. Does anyone have a link to the download for it or does anyone know of something similar?</p><p> </p><p>

I love coming up with original storylines but i like to use the templates for my mid and lower level stuff</p>

Pictures

 

I'm using workers from both Cverse and Real World Mod. How do I use both sets of pictures in the game?

Copy both sets of pictures into the picture folder you are using for the database.

[Meerkatz]

Copy both sets of pictures into the picture folder you are using for the database.

 

I've done that but it isn't working. Does the type of picture matter? Also can you add pictures to a save?
