The Mod Squad


Recommended Posts

<p>Love the mod! I'm playing JCP and I noticed the starting storylines are a little behind for March of 1987.</p><p> </p><p>

I'm using this as my primary source:</p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://www.thehistoryofwwe.com/jcp87.htm" rel="external nofollow">http://www.thehistoryofwwe.com/jcp87.htm</a></p><p> </p><p>

Seems like the storylines are:</p><p> </p><p>

BVR has just vocalized that he'll be siding with Dusty and Nikita against Ivan, Murdoch and Petrov.</p><p> </p><p>

Blanchard and Ole have just started to go at one another over Ole's kid being "snot nosed" with Arn yet to pick a side (he chooses the Horsemen at the first TV of March 87).</p><p> </p><p>

The Midnight Express have just had the titles they stole (without winning) from Windham and Ron Garvin taken back from them by Jim Crockett Jr. And Cornette threw a fireball at Ron Garvin, bringing Jimmy Garvin into the mix. Precious is also involved for some reason.</p><p> </p><p>

And finally Ric Flair doesn't seem to have a storyline outside of being the champion, randomly harassing Precious, and fighting babyfaces from all over the world at whim.</p><p> </p><p>

Edit:</p><p> </p><p>

Dennis Condrey has a contract with the AWA instead of an exclusive PPA with JCP.</p><p> </p><p>

Baron Von Rashke doesn't have a PPA with JCP.</p><p> </p><p>

Ole Anderson is a babyface and said to have turned a year ago. He's either a new babyface or set to turn.</p>

<p>Fantastic feedback thanks Rick <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>

Will definitely make some edits... Guys I've tried to go over every piece of feedback but I may have missed some, if something you reported or suggested isn't in 2.0 please let us know and we'll explain why we either left it out or apologise for missing it!</p>

<p>Sorry to be spamming you, but I'm thinking about the Midnight Express...</p><p> </p><p>

So in real life Dennis Condrey disappears without a trace on March 25th, 1987... three weeks into the mod. </p><p> </p><p>

So, it seems like the game should start with Condrey/Eaton and then there should be a narrative for Condrey's disappearance. Stan Lane is mentioned on TV in February, so he was clearly signed, but doesn't debut until March 14th.</p><p> </p><p>

There doesn't seem to be a narrative for "worker disappears without a trace". I think I'll use a hurt narrative in my games...</p><p> </p><p>

Anyhoo, figured I'd mention it as it's set up right now for Eaton and Lane to already be partners.</p>

<p>Not spamming at all Rick you're proving great feedback <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>

Ugh yeah some of those events are hard... Only in wrestling do situations as messy as these arise. We try to create the best possible workaround for every situation like this but it can be hard. </p><p> </p><p>

The best way I think to handle it is to edit his retirement date so he should most likely finish up his career that year. A lot of guys have retirements dates set because of things like this, so many workers debuted and then retired 3 or 4 years later so it helps to fit reality. I'm not in front of the computer at the moment so can't check if he has a retirement date set but will check soon.</p><p> </p><p>

I think the injury narrative may not work as he will just return to being an active worker when healed. This is the first mod I've ever done that doesn't have 'Go to the editor' notes, I really didn't like them as a lot of people missed them via simming or not paying attention and it's immersion breaking. If we can't manage any other workaround I will reintroduce them <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Hard to simulate that really, though yeah he should have a JCP contract for at least to end of May though perhaps run both contracts concurrent until end of May although JCP may renew him as written and then you lose the whole Rose/Condrey with Heyman run in AWA. So, 7 months he's AWA and only 3 he's JCP. Even when he left AWA, he only worked a few JCP shows in Dec 87/early 88.</p><p> </p><p> You're right on the Baron, who could easily have the current semi active in AWA to simulate bouncing around and an active Wrestler PPA with JCP that ends in June. He even worked WWE in August.</p><p> </p><p> You're primary source is great by the way, Wrestlingdata.com is always another good cross reference as history of misses AWA and others.</p><p> </p><p> Oh and...Eaton and Lane were tagging in April in JCP. Did Condrey not take his ball home...I'd need to go watch some shoot interview footage. Quick edit...he left overnight without notice (knew I remembered something) so I'd even question his noted May JCP appearances as HofWWE contradicts Wrestlingdata.com.</p>

Thehistoryofwwe.com has his match on March 24th listed as "Condrey's last appearance for 18 months". Lane is introduced on the March 31st TV as being a member of the MNE.</p>

Hmm I wonder if the 'Lost Smile' injury is still around, that may be a solution <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

That actually sounds like a pretty simple fix then; Dennis could get your standard "one month contract plus tension/dislike of Crockett" so that he leaves at the end of the month. That way he leaves the company at the end of the month and then could still return by 1989, for if players go through recreating the MX vs. MX feud.

<p>Well, it might not be today for me (UK time), but it is in my hands and I will update the thread when the links are ready. <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>

Hopefully before then, though.</p>

<p>Will everything be the same regarding broadcasters in version 2.0?</p><p>

Just wanted to know if I was going to change WWF Superstars to an A-show again, and strike a deal with a bigger coverage (like TNN) <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>
