What would be the correct pronunciation of the C-Verse's Jaime & Catherine Quine's last name?

(Kween)

(Keen)

 

Asking for a friiend

 

Kwine. As in "equine", to do with horses.

<p>So I know there's no smooth way to do this but is there any way to basically trade workers permanently between companies in a multiplayer game using the editor?</p><p> </p><p>

Even if it's not an instantaneous thing, I'd be curious if there's a way to accomplish two companies swapping workers.</p>

Then set their contract to expire in like a day. Once their contract expires and the new company can offer a deal, and I believe since they are loyal to the new company they shouldn't sign with anybody else (provided that you are big enough to sign them). The last part may or may not be 100% true as I have never tested that part out before. I have used this method when I accidentally signed a worker to a non in-ring role.</p>

<p>Short form of the question... If I buy out all japanese women's feds, and take their workers via the buyout, with my company the ONLY place for the japanese ladies to work, would they then move location to Mid-South, thus becoming active in USA, enabling me to re-sign them once their contracts are expired? I'm regional btw, so it'd be PPA contracts.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Here's the scenario:</p><p>

I'm a regional company, I just bought a Japanese women's fed. There's 1 women's fed left in Japan, but they're the 26th richest company in the world and considering Phoenix Girls is the 24th richest, and they're 90k in debt, WINNOW is surely in debt, and I can likely buy them out (if I so choose.)</p><p> </p><p>

So here's my question, if I were to purchase both women's feds, leaving women's wrestling non-existent in Japan, would all the Japanese women's talent that I take via company takeover move location to Mid-South (USA) enabling me to resign them once their contracts are up? I'd love to use the Japanese women's talent because I'm a major perf over pop fed, but I also don't want to throw my entire bank down the drain for a year or two of good ratings using a women's division.</p>

I know that if a worker is unrated in an angle, it tends to have little bearing on their pop/momentum since they're sort of just 'there'. Are they still eligible for gains in entertainment and other skills?

[joemurphy]

Is there any way to send one of your workers on an excursion? Had a news article about how NJPW sent one of their workers to Mexico yet the only option I can find for my guys is to send to a developmental territory.

Do non-televised events = more dvd sales?

[Gungner]

<p>A little noob question, as I've never noticed it:</p><p>

If a worker has both a submission-based finisher and a non-submission based finisher (both as their primary), and I select "submission" finish under road-agent notes, will he then automatically use his submission finisher, or will the note just state "wrestler x defeated wrestler y by submission"?</p>

I've follows the instructions for how to import pictures in the stickied thread, but it's not working. I've checked that I've selected the right picture folder, too, and I have.

A quick question about the popularity tracker. Does it show the wrestlers popularity at the end of the month or the start of the month.

 

E.g. when it gets to January 1st and the popularity tracker shows the pop values will these change through the month or are they set until the following month?

[Sammartino]

A question about popularity:

I'm actually a CULT size Promotion in Northern Mexico. I'm not in National Battle, not in regional.

I got a weekly show and at the end the notes always said I gain popularity in all regions (6 my show on red de la Lucha Channel), thus I loose this month 4 points of popularity in my own region and I can't understand why...

It is set at the beginning of the month.

It'll use their submission finisher. You'll only get the generic 'x beat y by submission' if there's no submission move available to the winning worker. It's why I try to make sure all my workers have one of each (impact/pinfall and submission).

Much obliged Kingster and Remi.
