Historian Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Thanks for clarifying Anyone got any tips about how to book a Tag Team dominating a match? If you want both members to dominate, you have to select them both. If you pick, say, Road Warrior Animal, he'll control the whole match and get the domination. However, if the team is classified as a 'unit' they both get the gains from the match evenly. It only really matters if the team is classified as individuals. So, it really depends on the specific team. If they are classified as a team, you can pick one and they'll both get the benefit. If they are individuals, the one you select will get a bigger benefit.

azzak Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 Does anyone know if turning a worker can alter their max popularity ceiling? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H3power Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I have a worker who has excellent chemistry with his manager, but at the same time receives a penalty which states "penalized for bad chemistry (overwhelmed by manager)." Does anyone know in this case if the worker is better or worse off with the manager at ringside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not going to drop your rating significantly, so I'd keep him with the manager.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
de knegt Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 If you hire a local worker, can they refuse to take losses like people on your roster? I want to hire a few popular outsiders to put over my own talent, but I don't want to pay them only for them to refuse the booking or throw up a massive stink about it.

Blake Trask Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 They might complain, same as any other worker. But they don't have creative control so nothing's stopping you jobbing them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, hadn't thought of that... Secondary question, can a worker start sandbagging in a match if they've indicated they don't want to take a loss, or would they still put on a normal match based on their skills?

Blake Trask Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Unless they were already with low morale they wouldn't phone it in, so far as I'm aware. I think the morale penalty hits after the match happens, not when the finish they dislike is booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SanX Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Are jobbers useless? I am still not able to completely grasp how momentum works, a recognizable guy won't get positive momentum if he beats an unidentified guy? For reference, the recognizable guy is on 5 match winning streak and still has very chilly momentum. It's a new save, so no past fortunes, he has gimmick rating as very good, he is getting decent enough ratings on angles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Trask Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 If they'd been losing with poor momentum before, what happens is that their long term booking hasn't yet caught up to their recent booking. It's sort of an elastic band - continue to book them strong and the long term losses will wear off/be weighted less heavily and they'll ping into positive momentum and start shooting up into the warm. If they started chilly that effect is still there even in a new save. It's not hard to dig people out of poor momentum but it does take concerted effort once they're deep in the cold.

SanX Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Thank you for responding. So, to use the said wrestler now, my options are to either a turn or keep giving him wins until his momentum is in green. Does the level of opponents affect momentum? Ex beating a Recognizable/well known wrestler Vs beating jobbers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Trask Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Good segments and winning matches (having major successes in angles might I think also contribute but I'm not sure). Not completely certain about the level of opponents. I book small companies so you can be recognisable just by showing up and I don't have unknowns around very often. I don't think it matters hugely. The big thing I've found with momentum is for people who aren't going to just be jobbers, starting them off with a couple of wins tends to be prudent because an early loss streak is surprisingly hard to elastic back from - seems to take a while whereas if they win a couple first they stay warm for longer.

Self Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 I'm six years into my current game, and I haven't found beating unknown job guys to be a very effective way of getting guys over/raising momentum. It's a fine way to maintain positive momentum, but the easiest way to get someone hot is to beat someone who actually matters. More popular than them, with positive momentum, and once is rarely enough. As mentioned, turning can be a good, if drastic, solution.

clemenceko Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 A question on creating title. Saw the title have the following levels: 1. Primary 2. Secondary 3. Tertiary 4. Floating I try looking in the handbook on the explanation for each level. Seems there is nothing. What does no 3 and no 4 means? Primary i understand is something like the main title and secondary is like a second title which maybe something like cruiser weight champ? Can anyone advise?

Self Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 To use 1999 WWF as an example... Primary is your biggest belt, the WWF World Title. Secondary is one step below that. Prestigious, but not the most important, the WWF Intercontinental Title. Tertiary is the third step down, the WWF European or WWF Light Heavyweight Title.... and Floating depends on who holds it. The WWF Hardcore Title. Means something in the hands of Mankind or Kane. Means nothing in the hands of Steve Blackman or Gerald Briscoe. These categories just set the base prestige score for the belt, which will move up or down based on booking anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dynamite Sid Posted December 20, 2021 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Is it possible to (in effect) recall someone from excursion early? By convincing them to work in Japan and then signing them to a deal would that essentially end the excursion early and bring the worker home or would there be some sort of issue caused by trying to override the excursion in this way?

Changing them in the editor only changes their default pictures.

Not sure if you'll be able to sign them again when they eventually leave you around the end of their excursion, but I <em>think</em> they'd consider you again....</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
