That's what confused me. The only thing I can think of is that I'm second in the national battle, but I'm not sure that affects show ratings. It's probably just nothing, and you're trying to look for a solution for nothing. Your shows are probably on the edge of B- and B. The one thing I could think of is maybe you're not running enough angles on your shows, but if that's the type of promotion you want to run then don't change it. It's just the way show ratings are determined. Lower match ratios with very high angle ratings will get a bump in show rating, while a show carried mostly on in-ring action will dip a little bit.

Kingster Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I have never tested it, so I can only give you my best guess on #1, but I would bet that you can get past the Young Lion effect with a tag match, since you can use a tag match to also get past the effects of chemistry or even lower popularity sometimes, especially if you don't give the Young Lion the pinfall. it would be consistent with how the rest of the game usually operates. This would make some logical sense, as one of the tried and true uses of tag teams is for an older, more popular worker to get a younger one over. As for #2, I think you want a highlights show, as regularly televising events starts to lower attendance a bit. In full disclosure however, I have never run a touring promotion. I know neither of my answers are very concrete, but I wanted to at least take a crack at helping you out. Thanks for the reply. As for #2: Except for ppv buy-rates, over-exposure is not a thing in this game according to the player's handbook. So I don't think that's the issue here. 1. I have play PGHW a handful of times and never noticed that the young line setting doing much. I have regularly added them to six man tag matches with no issues. I'm honestly not sure how much the young lion system does. Interesting. Just to clarify: For example, if I were to hold a 6 men tag match with Team A (Two veterans, one young lion) vs. Team B (Two veterans, one young lion) where a veteran of team A pinned the young lion from team B, the young lion from team A would not be penalized for beating a team with veterans in it? 2. For touring events either run touring highlights to make some extra money or create a TV show and pretend its an event, which is what I do. I dont know the specifics but I know touring highlights are not as good or profitable as they were in 13. I usually run one touring event that gets highlights and then one TV show. Hope this helps I just tried it myself and got a deal with a commercial broadcaster to show my weekly events and it makes almost ten times as much money than the touring deal. Didn't think of an actual tv show because it's not realistic and probably makes just as much money attendance-wise and tv revenue-wise than weekly events. The reason I was asking was that I got an owner goal to improve my finances which I'm not sure I'll be able to achieve, so I need every $$$ i can possibly get. Again, thanks for your input.

Derek B Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Young Lions aren't complicated... it doesn't matter about teams, you just can't have them literally win the fall on anyone except another Young Lion. If it's a battle royal situation, they can't win the match if there are any veterans in there. So you can go wild mixing up the teams however you want... just don't let a Young Lion pin a veteran. Workers also stop being Young Lions when they hit D- Respect or 32 years of age (whichever comes first) so you cn easily keep an eye on that. I've got some ideas for future improvements to this written away somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Roguey Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 How to turn organic bios on for all workers before the game starts? I'm trying to find it in the database i wanna play, but can't. In the pre game editor, go to mass edit workers and then choose the "Set Organic Biography To..." option, it'll auto default to Yes so all you'll need to do is select all and then hit mass edit.
