Will having a manager help a workers stats increase? I've got some guys who I'd really like to pick up some mic skills and wondering if this was the best option.

 

As said above, if you use them together in angles, yes. Assuming that the manager is talented, if course. Alternatively you can also use those angles to build your own manager's pop. Which will be useful to help put future workers over.

Hoping someone can help me out here...I'm almost 3 years into a RW mod and despite a huge number of retirements, I've had no new workers generated.

I also have 3 dojos, one of which has produced 3 workers in 3 years, the other 2...nothing at all.

I have regeneration on, I set the new workers date to the current month and year at the start of every month and still nothing. Am I doing something wrong or is it normal for new workers to take so long to appear?

You don't need to reset the new workers date to the current month and year every single month. As long as you're pass that date, new workers will appear. Right below that option, should be a drop down box with different levels of how often new workers appear...what is that set to?

[nagadude]

It's set to 'High' and has been for probably a year or so now.

[Jazz49ers]

Are you sure you haven't had any new workers? They don't always come out of dojos, so if that's the only screen you are looking for new workers, you're probably missing them.

Alliance Trades

 

Hey guys, I'm getting back into TEW2016. It's been a while and so I've just seen that someone Modern Japan Movement has borrowed one of my workers.

 

How do I request to use a worker from another promotion that's within the Alliance?

<p>What causes the Dirt Sheet note about chemistry (fades due to manager) ?</p><p>

How about the one that says Chemistry (motivation) , even though the same worker got another note in the dirt sheet for high morale??</p>

I recently had that with Sami Zayn in one of my games (I rarely use the Dirt Sheet) when he was seriously under performing and that was the cause. If you see someone with this note, they are generally going to be better off without a manager unless the manager is A LOT more over/talented than they are, in which case they will likely still be more of a help than a hinderance.</p><p> </p><p> The Chemistry (motivation) bonuses and penalties are linked to the news stories you see where a worker reveals that they like/dislike certain situations. Working with bigger/smaller workers, working the opening match, making debuts (all of which can be good or bad) and being nervous when they are pushed (the only one without a positive to balance it) are the stories there and making smart use of these traits can really help you to plan out a card once you know who fits where. Finding a Giant who loves working with smaller workers and pairing them with a smaller guy who likes working with big guys THEN finding that they have chemistry as opponents? In-ring magic. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></p><p> </p><p> A quick note... a worker can only have one of the motivation traits, so if you find a positive you are on to a winner. And if you get the "nervous when pushed trait" you are going to have someone who is likely always going to underperform when they are in the upper reaches of the card. Which can really derail some long term plans, and is why you may want to take your time pushing someone... find out if they can handle it first THEN push them. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png"></p>

<p>Hey guys. I have a question about PPV broadcaster requirements.</p><p> </p><p>

I am playing as WWF in early 1996, and holding monthly PPV. I have all my production set to the highest possible levels (ie. "Industry Leader, Professional, Cutting Edge, & Major Licensed). After the past couple PPVs, I have been getting emails that "this show did not meet Time Warner Cable's minimum requirements."</p><p> </p><p>

What do I do to fix this?</p>

Thank you.

 

That depends on you. You can choose to make it your child company or you can completely close it. If you choose the latter you can still pick which items you want to adopt (contracts, belts, events etc.).

Just click the attempt takeover button for the company and all options are shown and explained to you.

Thank you Kingster

Will the AI ever borrow Alliance titles?

I've not seen it yet in my save, that has so far gone 9 months. I'm the only one to have borrowed the titles.

Yes they will. Sting dropped the NWA title to Al Snow in one of my 91 games.

One of my guys, mr perfect has been in rehab for 6 months, yet he has gone up in popularity, only by 1 or 2 points but still, why would this happen when he hasn't featured at all
