shawn michaels Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 So I created a broadcaster to cover some international areas where I either have no coverage or have multiple deals coming to an end. Yet when I tried to sign with my own network, they outright refuse. I would understand if they refused clashing coverage on the day of a show (would still be silly, cause it's MY network) but it would probably be more understandable then outright refusing to sign when the process should be automated...as you know...it's my network and all. What gives? Bug or just something I am not understanding here? Thanks for any possible clarification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn michaels Posted March 18, 2019 Author Share Posted March 18, 2019 A little clarification please? I'm guessing the "competition" mechanic trumps the own broadcaster thing, but I thought it shouldn't happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 As you have said, it's because you have created an unusual situation where your own broadcaster is a rival to your existing contracts. The clash block is most powerful in that situation, although normally the other broadcaster contracts would come up for renewal first and you'd lose them. If there is another patch I would likely change it so that an owned broadcaster can circumvent the blocks in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
