Southside picking Bryan in the 2nd round puzzled me a little because his head health stats mean he's problematic. I figured he'd probably go a few rounds later than that. </div></blockquote> Injuries are off, no? Even if not, he's good for one more biggest show of the year main event vs. Punk. Him and Shibata can be board members for the Strong Style Wrestling Alliance if not. - What was your goal in drafting your roster? NJPW has an americanized step-child - What pick were you most excited about? Punk. My personal favorite wrestler being available. I had 4 guys I was hoping for with my first pick and got 2 of them in Punk/Bryan (Nakamura and Styles being the other 2). Uncrewed and I had a deal worked out to trade out of the first round and pick up his 2nd and 3rd if all 4 had already been picked. Would of given me 5 picks in the first 24 selections. Later rounds: Kento Miyahara. He's a bit underrated in the mod but grabbing the Ace of AJPW in Round 19 made me very happy - Are there any picks you regret? I probably should of went Reigns instead of KO in round 3 given Reigns SQ for national battles, but if I am doing the math right I'm still a clear #1 in the US national battles with Rock/Cena not in the US. - What were some of your favorite picks made by other players? Every pick of Dr_A. A bunch were "if Dr_A doesn't pick them this round I will get them on the swing around". Omega, Shibata, Kana, Io Shirai, and Go Shiozaki come to mind as ones I had earmarked. - What were some picks made that puzzled you? I can't knock any, most people did a great job of drafting to their product - How do you see your promotion unfolding once you're able to play it? Lots of 6-man tags saving singles matches for Events. Lesnar, McGregor, and Rousey getting the "special attraction" treatment. Heyman doing some dodgy Heyman things. Juniors doing lots of flippy stuff. I plan to team up Dragon Lee II with Mysterio and Mascara Dorada and match them up against Caristico, La Sombra, and Mistico in the junior division. #DIY to take the junior tag divison by storm. For heavy's, let Miyahara/Nakajima storm through the tag division while Punk, Bryan, Lesnar, Steen battle up top. Sasha to carry the women's division while Ayako Hamada/LuFisto train up some of the younger workers. Steen will take Rougeau under his wing an teach him some performance skills. Beyond that, very excited about the big 4 competitions comboing with Dr_A. A little preview of them below Heavyweight League: CM Punk Brock Lesnar Daniel Bryan Kevin Steen Katsuhiko Nakajima Kento Miyahara Kazuchika Okada Kenny Omega Katsyuri Shibata Naomichi Marufuji Junior League: Dragon Lee II Conor McGregor La Sombra Ricochet Rey Mysterio Caristico Hiromu Takahashi BxB Hulk KUSHIDA Masato Yoshino Ryusuke Taguchi Matt Sydal Women's League: Sasha Banks Ronda Rousey Ayako Hamada Paige Mayu Iwatani Kana Io Shirai Kairi Hojo Arisa Nakajima Meiko Satomura Tag League (maybe openweight now Dr_A?): Team Hell No #DIY Caristico/Mistico Diamond Ring (Nakajima/Miyahara) Briscoes Sydal/Ricochet

Dr_Avalanche · July 12, 2017

Tag League (maybe openweight now Dr_A?):
Team Hell No
#DIY
Caristico/Mistico
Diamond Ring (Nakajima/Miyahara)
Briscoes
Sydal/Ricochet

I think it makes sense. If you put a weight limit on it, all you do is restrict smaller wrestlers like Sydal to participate.

- What was your goal in drafting your roster?

To combine all the best talents in Japan and put them in one promotion

- What pick were you most excited about?

Kota Ibushi & Los Ingobernables de Japon. Roman Reigns in Japan just seems like a good fit. I was very surprised that Goto & Makabe fell as much as they did.

- Are there any picks you regret?

None really

- What were some of your favorite picks made by other players?

Dr_Avalanche picking Okada & Omega and then assembling a roster filled with some of the best junior talents in the world.

- What were some picks made that puzzled you?

I'm surprised that alpha2117 didn't really go for some Australian & New Zealand talents like Buddy Murphy, Travis Banks, & TK Cooper.

- How do you see your promotion unfolding once you're able to play it?

It'll be very fun and I will certainly enjoy booking it.

Just wanted to throw my 2 cents in after quickly looking over the rosters. I think rockambition (LKW) has my favorite roster, although I would really be salivating over it had he gone with (in my eyes) more legit main eventers early on to be supplemented by the rest of his awesome roster. Southside hitmen's roster is probably my number 2.

People I was aiming for kept getting taken so I kept with my formula. Essentially Lion Kingdom Wrestling is a pure singles promotion with a singles title (The Augustus championship) and a sort of #1 contendership title (Kleos Crown). I love the idea of a Gift of the Gods Championship and how it always gets revamped everytime. It can elevate people to newer heights that I never thought of yers ago playing this game. I do intend on writing a diary with my Promotion. FOr those interested here is my full roster: Lion Kingdom Wrestling: Owner: Cary Silkin Head Booker: Lance Storm Road Agent: Fit Finlay Referees: Rick Knox and Drake Younger Managers: Catrina and Dario Cueto 1 Aerostar 2 Andrew Everett 3 Angelico 4 Cage 5 Chris Hero 6 Drago 7 Dragon Azteca Jr. 8 Fenix 9 Finn Balor 10 Jack Evans 11 King Cuerno 12 Low Ki 13 Mark Andrews 14 Matanza Cueto 15 Marty Scurll 16 Matt Riddle 17 Mil Muertes 18 Neville 19 Pete Dunne 20 PJ Black 21 Samoa Joe 22 Roderick Strong 23 Shane Strickland 24 Son Of Havoc 25 Timothy Thatcher 26 TJP 27 Tommy End 28 Trevor Lee 29 Will Ospreay 30 Zack Sabre Jr.

alpha2117 · July 13, 2017

Uncrewed, you haven't done the data yet so you may not have realized, Matt Silva is Buddy Murphy.

With the Australasian workers that was a strategy. With so few options once the restrictions are turned on its better to pick those Chinese guys, Shera, the two big islander girls and the like now. Otherwise I either don't get a chance to use them or have to tweak the data. As it is I am going to do a very minor set of tweaks because 3 people got missed on my list and I will just make them available so I can do the story lines I had in my head that was Coture, Divina and Jessica Love. I will also make the other 3 Brazilians available because I ended up with one of that stable Xandao but not jobber Zumbi or the two girls. None of those 6 are going to be regularly employed elsewhere longterm but all might have a place in my attempt to cover the rest of the world. I actually planned a Sth african faction too but rockambition has a love of high flyers and took Angelico and PJ Blask relatively early so I nixed drafting Rey Leppan.

So with people like TK Cooper, the Basso brothers, Morretti etc they are some of the few viable free agents I will have to replenish my roster over time. Heck I didn't even pick Alex Lee a person I am actually acquaintances with in real life but whilst she is gainfully employed in Japan at the moment it won't be hard to get her back to Australia in game.

About 25 percent of my starting roster is Australasian but I have 3 Indians, 2 Chinese, 4 pacific aND a Sth american. So it's about half the roster trying to represent either Australasia or the parts of the world not covered by the game itself.

A man who proves that some hot chick's actually do go for a guy with a good personality. Oh Southside, injuries are off but that doesn't fix long term wear and tear. The mod has Bryan at like 52 head health meaning you might be best to use him sparingly. Think of him as the vertically challenged Undertaker. He will still be good in matches and used well keep his pop but physically you need to monitor him to keep him healthy.

Juanster · July 13, 2017

What was your goal in drafting your roster?

My goal while drafting my roster was to stay true to form on the ECW..but then I soon realized that the "old" school hardcore wrestler were a bit too old to keep up so I had to do something to fix it roster wise. I drafted 4 woman who have been known to fight men from time to time and they will be expected to be involved with that

- What pick were you most excited about?

I was excited to have been able to draft Bray Wyatt and Pentagon Jr. Both are right now my favorite characters.

- Are there any picks you regret?

Honestly No.. i think what I took I got who I thought would be an asset but my locker room may become a circus

- What were some of your favorite picks made by other players?

I really wanted John Hennigan as I had plans for him so I was kinda jealous of that pick

- What were some picks made that puzzled you?

I think everyone took who they thought would help them in the long run so no no picks puzzled me

- How do you see your promotion unfolding once you're able to play it?

I think I maybe okay...I need to work on a signing a few tag teams to boost my tag division and definitely some managers...here's to all of us...I wish all a successful time!

I don't know why in my head injuries wear and tear were off, but that makes total sense to keep it on Like you said, I'll save him for a few big matches a year, then him and Shibata (with 57 head health) can go be board members of the Strong Style Wrestling Alliance.

Is anyone up for doing a joint diary?

Tardelli · July 13, 2017

How would that work? Normally i would be interested in something like that.

rockambition · July 13, 2017

I was just referring going back and forth between shows in diary form. If you are curious about the Lion Kingdom Wrestling Logo here it is:

southside_hitmen · July 13, 2017

I would be open to a joint diary. Could be cool.

I'd also be open to "light" version of multiplayer in which one person run the game, and the others just submit shows/roster moves to them. So a single person running a multi-character game.

Others could be as detailed as they like, from "run this for 4 minutes with focus here" to "who cares about the undercard, Roman's going over! LOLZ".

Anyone interested?

HRTVAndrew · July 13, 2017

OK, some info from my end. First of all, sorry I wasn't more involved. Everything's fine, but I got SUPER busy the few days the draft happened. I made every effort to get lists posted as quickly as I could.

TV: Our weekly show will air each Wednesday night and be called "RSW Mayhem!" It'll go for two hours.

PPV: Our schedule is below, and all shows will take place on Saturdays. Shows with asterisks next to them denote ones where tournaments will take center stage (refer to page 5 for more information). All shows will be two and a half hours, with the exception of our season finale, RSW Beckoning of a New Day, which will be three hours.

January, Week 1: RSW Sunrise Classic*

May, Week 4: RSW Dawn of Summer

July, Week 1: RSW Miracle Violence Connection Classic*

November, Week 4: RSW Beckoning of a New Day (SEASON FINALE)

Dr_Avalanche · July 14, 2017

Any participation that would take up any significant amount of time in terms of writing is out for me. I'm happy to give input, let you know how things are going in my save assuming I have time to get it going, answer questions like "what would WWJ owner/booker the Great Sasuke do?", but I can't make the commitment to take part in any collaborative writing project, even if it sounds rad.

Likewise; this is pretty much my exact situation, too.

Uncrewed · July 15, 2017

Data Update: Working on adding in events & belts today and tomorrow. Popularity will also be worked on after the events & belts are completed. A short test game will also be used by myself to make sure everything plays well.
