Do you want the proper answer, or the easy answer? Because I find the Edit Relationship tab to be a godsend.

Regarding your avatar, it's super easy to piss people off and make enemies, but super difficult to make friendships and be supportive. That's the one thing I've always disliked about the game. I still love it though. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

[Gungner]

<p>I have a couple of quick questions:</p><p> </p><p>

1) If I am foreshadowing a turn, does being on the pre- or postshow count? Or does the worker in question have to be onscreen, which the pre- and postshows are now?</p><p> </p><p>

2) I ran an angle with one worker rated on popularity (88/89 across the US) and the other rated on menace (100) who has 85 pop across the US. The angle scored a 67... That seems a bit low in my mind. Haven't seen that before. What else factors in? Or could it just be an off-night from one of the two or something like it?</p>

[Gungner]

<p>Hmm... It was 8 minutes long. Perhaps that wasn't long enough.</p><p> </p><p>

Edit: The next angle between them (rated on the same) scored a 100, and was 10 minutes long. 2 minutes can't make that big a difference, can it? :/</p>

<p>So I've got a game going as SOTBPW and my first show gets 82 but every match is pinged for low risk content.</p><p> </p><p>

As I can't change the product, what's the solution? I had hoped that there would be a solution somewhere but they don't don't have a thread set up.</p>

[Gungner]

You can change the product in the in-game editor, if that's something you want to do.

Quick question - how are PPV events rated for a minor brand?

[Gungner]

Can I delete an alter ago for a wrestler, when I've already started a save? I mistakenly gave a wrestler the name I wanted another one to have, and I'm afraid if try to give the other wrestler the same name, the game will give some sort of message that they can't have the same name...

<p>Does anyone know when the note "lack of psychology and match tended to drift a little" / "segment rating was penalized for lack of psychology" disappears?</p><p> </p><p>

I've run my two best tag teams, champions of my Junior and Heavyweight division in matches and though they do amazing against literally any other teams, they somehow always get that note against each other. I ran a 20 minute match last time, and this time went with a 13 minute match. No call in ring/slow build that would test their psychology but still getting it. </p><p> </p><p>

One team had 82 & 81 psychology, the other had 79/77. The first team had 92/84 performance and the other had 95/92 (thanks to chemistry). I just can't for the life of me understand why theres a lack of psychology note.</p><p> </p><p>

As an added note - the first match had an 82. The shortened one had a 79.</p>

[Matt_Black]

I <em>think</em> it occurs when the psychology is lower than the overall match rating. Even workers with very good psychology will get that if the match is rated highly due to either their combined pop, storyline heat, or other performance skills.

Is it normal for my child companies to keep falling into debt? What will happen if I let the debt continue? So far, I've been using the editor to transfer money to my child companies and subtracting it out of my funds with WWE.

<p>Does the AI automatically adjust the length of their events to suit their size/popularity?</p><p> </p><p>

I'd like to make sure that the AI's events are appropriately long given most promotions are now regional in this data and we have a few national/global promotions with very big rosters.</p><p> </p><p>

But I am hoping I don't have to go through the events and adjust that manually. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/redface.png.900245280682ef18c5d82399a93c5827.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

On a related note, I've been tracking down as many numbered events as I can from the Cverse to make sure it's reflecting properly which the 'next version' is.</p><p> </p><p>

I've hit up the most obvious ones, such as Total Mayhem and Supreme Challenge, Best of the Super Juniors, and a couple of the less so like Women of Wrestling and Ed Henson.</p><p> </p><p>

Does anyone recall any of the others offhand?</p>

Coming off a discussion in another thread, is there a particualr trigger for the worker happiness notes 'Pleased with their recent booking' and 'Pleased with a win on <Show X>'?

 

I assume the latter is down to beating a big name, and the former due to winning a lot, or at least being in highly-rated segments, but does anyone know the specific causes?

It's primarily down to the popularity of who they've beaten and / or the difference between the respective popularities.

The number of matches on an AI Event card is based on their roster size, not the event length (which only for the player). Only a TV show takes into account the actual time.
