Jon The GOAT Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Will workers be dissuaded from relocating to a region if the company they work for organizes/pays for transportation/hotel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpapa42 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Have a question regarding loyalty and company takeovers. I am running Burning Hammer. The Japanese tsunami will kill the economy in a few months, which generally kills a few Japanese companies. I have a target a few talented Japanese wrestlers who I can't sign on permanent deals as they are loyal to their current company. Now if the economy kills that company and they become free agents, that loyalty is gone - can't be loyal to a company that no longer exists. But what I buy the company out and keep it as a child promotion.... Will that loyalty remain in effect and block me from ever securing those wrestlers? Anyone messed around with that?

I'm not sure if making a company your child company will remove loyalties but I know child companies can have loyalties so I don't see why it would erase them in which case I doubt you'd ever be able to sign them to writtens.

LlamaSquad Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 If I were in your situation, I'd use the editor. It's like a BHOTWG wrestler in '13 being loyal to the Hinote Dojo and refusing to be called up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they are not <em>directly</em> employed by you and sent there by the parent company, releasing them doesn't stop you from immediately negotiating with them.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recently, my Marketing and Misc. costs have skyrocketed with nothing to offset them.

I already started a company in the Tri-State area. I'm just running a mix between a WWE Sports Entertainment product and a NJPW one. Match intensity and danger are around 50-60%. I will run a male only company with 4 belts: main event, mid-card, lower level, and tag team. If I expand in the future, I might consider introducing a cruiserweight/LHW belt but with no division so I can be flexible with my workers. To date, I've eclipsed the 26 worker limit and have put roughly more than 10 workers in developmental as well. </p><p> </p><p> I followed Llama's suggestion and signed a lot of his guys. Was initially looking to build the company around Marc Dubois but he is a negative influence overall and has bad habits so I might just let him be champ for a while. For my main eventers I have Dubois, Fox Mask, Masked Cougar, the Brawler guy whose name has a lot of B's (apologies for forgetting his name), Frankie Perez, and Bryan Holmes. Young up and coming guys I have are Greg Gauge (might make him my top heel soon), Kirk Jameson, Ernest Youngman, Findlay Farraday (sp?) and others I forgot. I'm trying to get Mitico to win my tertiary title but I fear he won't be accepted since his recommended push was as ET but I switched him up to Midcarder. Any suggestions?</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a0161613 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I got Dubois in a SOTBPW game where he reacted positively to being sent to rehab on day one. Six months later and he's been a perfect example and a fine mid card addition. Remmy Skye was less happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crossface Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 When rating a worker in an angle based on "entertainment," does this factor in all on-camera qualities (ie: menace, sex appeal, SQ, etc.)?

Or at least, those are the main factors that help, the On Camera might be minor factors in -- but you can have angles that specifically focus on Menace and Sex Appeal -- so I don't think they factor in.</p><p> </p><p> It's what prevents guys like Gargantuan, who can't cut a promo but has mega menace, from being able to cut great entertainment angles because of his on camera stats.</p><p> </p><p> I could be way wrong though.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
