Favourite COTT Company?

[EBEZA]

Simple enough question: who is your favourite member of the Confederation Of The Territories, and why?

[Historian]

MAW has been my favorite company since 2005. They were who I learned the CVerse with and the company I have spent the most time booking since then. As anyone who has read The Climb can attest, I’m a pretty simple booker. I don’t run a lot of gimmick matches, I don’t do a bunch of wild and crazy angles. It’s pretty simple, old school storytelling. Plus most of my favorite workers have come through the MAW system.

OLLIE but only because their starting roster is good and they are the only company I’ve actually booked

[neslo024]

I ended up choosing CZCW but it was a tough call. MAW is so fun to play with but I love tag teams and The American Cobras and Going Coastal gave CZCW the edge.

<p>I hardly ever play as either OLLIE or 4C so that eliminates them right off the bat.</p><p> </p><p>

The other three are tough as those are the three I play the most as (Well SWF would probably be in the mix there somewhere).</p><p> </p><p>

It is like a parent trying to choose their favorite kid here.<img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> I guess CZCW, mainly because they are always my first save every time I buy a new TEW game.</p>

<p>I think it's unfortunate this poll does not include companies that are hard-wired to join when they debut, like Quebec Pro Wrestling, Rocky Mountain Wrestling, & Canadian Women's Wrestling Federation.</p><p> </p><p>

Anyway, I also voted for OLLIE, as most of the other COTT companies just can't keep me hooked with their product or roster.</p>

[misterioso]

OLLIE is the only one that I have ever had a long term save with, albeit in TEW 2013, so I will go with them. Never really was able to get as interested in any of the other companies in any iteration of TEW, although 4C intrigues me the most in 2016.

[a0161613]

I've only ever seen CWWF be formed.

[TheMightyDontKneel]

<p>Costal Zone for me. I absolutely love that it feels like some Chikara/RoH/PWG hybrid and its how I book it. Dream indy matches where theres some storyline but then a lot of goofiness to match.</p><p> </p><p>

I tend to always book it with 4 points getting you a Championship match, 2 points for an Xtreme, tags require three but as with Chikara at times multiple points are on offer. I'll tend to run it as three shows every 2 months as well with the occasional big 3 show weekend too. 20 shows a year max but it makes it fun to do year long storylines.</p>

[PDAred]

I've ended up playing most often as OLLIE, I've played as CWWF and RMW and liked it,

 

but I voted for CZCW because I feel it's more of a "COTT company" than OLLIE is, and CWWF and RMW are not available options.

[TLCJR4LIFE]

You make some good points in other threads about booking things like OLLIE and QAW. Your thread on taking feds to Global,nthe one that started with PSW had promise as an ongoing series.

 

I'd like to see you tackle one of the COTT feds.

 

I’m redoing PSW as I wasn’t happy with my first try run.

 

Currently doing QAW, but my next game/thread will be a COTT game for sure. Whether it be an original COTT or a created company that joins the COTT.

[BHK1978]

Also I just wanted to add when I run a COTT fed I always invite FCW, PSW, and one of the Women's promotions to join. Usually it is AAA but I will sometimes invite QAW. The reason for inviting a Women's promotion is to add a Women's COTT Championship that can be defended in both Mexico and America.

 

I also tend to add a Six Man/Trios COTT Title. Oddly enough, that title usually does not end up being defended in OLLIE all that much. It tends to be defended in MAW and 4C more than any of the other promotions.

[EBEZA]

I think it's unfortunate this poll does not include companies that are hard-wired to join when they debut, like Quebec Pro Wrestling, Rocky Mountain Wrestling, & Canadian Women's Wrestling Federation.

 

Honestly, I've never seen any of those companies develop organically, must've been pretty unlucky in my saves! Also, the point was the default database's starting members, as most companies could be considered potential members.

 

Anyway, I also voted for OLLIE, as most of the other COTT companies just can't keep me hooked with their product or roster.

 

Fair enough, OLLIE certainly has quite a few fans, by the look of the poll! Out of curiosity, how many companies like QPW, RMW and CWWF would you say there are that are "hard-wired to join?"

 

OLLIE is the only one that I have ever had a long term save with, albeit in TEW 2013, so I will go with them. Never really was able to get as interested in any of the other companies in any iteration of TEW, although 4C intrigues me the most in 2016.

 

What about 4C intrigues you in 2016?

 

I've only ever seen CWWF be formed.

 

That's one more than I've seen!

 

Costal Zone for me. I absolutely love that it feels like some Chikara/RoH/PWG hybrid and its how I book it. Dream indy matches where theres some storyline but then a lot of goofiness to match.

Ah, you run CZCW like a league-format? Interesting!

What makes you feel like OLLIE isn't a "COTT company?"

 

I’m redoing PSW as I wasn’t happy with my first try run.

 

Currently doing QAW, but my next game/thread will be a COTT game for sure. Whether it be an original COTT or a created company that joins the COTT.

 

I've just read through the QAW thread so far, very enlightening. I'm not a power gamer (or whatever the term was), but certain little tidbits certainly will help my success rate!

How do alliance decisions like that work? Say you invite a company, do the AI companies in the alliance take a vote?

Yes they vote and can accept or reject you. Vessey in NYCW always blocks my created company if I base it in New England.

[BHK1978]

What <strong>neslo024</strong> said. Though I have only run into the problem a couple of times when trying to add another Mexican promotion (Forgive me I do not have the game open and I hardly ever play as any of the Mexican promotions. The one I am talking about is the new one where it is supposed to be like a video game) or I try to bring in one the two California hardcore promotions.
