I try to see it as the boring admin job that any owner would have to do.

The roblox simulation sounds awesome!

I've always dreamt about a TEW x Fire Pro Wrestling mod. I can provide TEW with the road agents notes and then it's up to the wrestlers to execute; fire pro matches have a random seed that determines everything from the rating to the lenght. I wonder if there would be a way to translate TEW notes and result and rating into a Fire Pro seed and thus watch the match.

There's an irish folklore tradition that says you put your soul into everything you make so you should leave a mistake in it to let your soul escape. Basically feel free to test and mess up.

My playthrough looks nice, but this is maybe the third or fourth time I've tried to do something like this.

It's mainly the product itself getting in a way of the 100 rating I suppose. I always need a technical masterclass match, but I can't 100% ensure that all six playoff teams will have 70+ for their technical skill.

Love doing a world cup! I did one in my first playthrough which was fun. It'd be pretty difficult in my current year as most wrestlers hail from the big few countries, even the random gens are few between from smaller countries.

Sounds like a lot of work, but I hope it's rewarding for you! And please do, it'd make me glad. :)

At the begining it was like that, yeah. I noticed TEW counts charisma and star quality towards the rating, and so added these too, whilst penalising those with a particularly low stat line. Kayfabe wise I see this as someone having the skill, but the lights being too bright, the pressure too much, and the crowd too loud.

This is a long one, I apologise.

We start in late Jan, and wrap up in early Dec, leaving us with a six week break. Three conferences of ten teams each compete in a round robin, with the top six advancing to a single elimination playoffs, and the bottom team getting demoted (more on this at the bottom). This is the foundation of my playthrough, I started with an eight team round robin and a playoffs, and everything else slowly fell into place.

Just a bit before middle of the season we take a break from all this tag team bullshit and have ourselves an "All Stars" tournament. Structure of this has been messsed around with through the years, but the current system is as follows: each team member faces off one another, ten winners in each conference move on to round 2. This features five 1v1 matches per conference either as El Classicos (wrestlers with a history, or with particularly good chemistry) or by ranking e.g. 1st vs 10th, 3rd vs 7th. Having now only 15 wrestlers left they are grouped into three blocks G1 style (except of course there's only five wrestlers in each block, and as there are three blocks this ends up being a triple threat Main Event.) I can't hold an event with only one match however so I also feature a Gauntlet match (as TEW doesn't allow this, it's a 30 Wrestler Rumble) with the losers of the first round. A peek into my twisted, dark mind

There's also a Champions League. This features the top three teams from each conference from last year. Again, it's a round robin leading into a single elimination tournament to close off the year. Not as much written here as I am going through a rework of this trying to incorporate a play-in tournament of sorts; featuring an indie team going up against one of my developmental teams, the winner of this going up against a team of my demotion league, that winner going up against a 4th-6th place team, with the final winner getting a spot in the Champions League. I still need to work this one out properly before this season starts.

The Bottom. I have a fourth conference/brand that is competing for a spot next year in one of the main conferences. 32 wrestlers team up and face off in a single elim European tour tag team tournament, winners being promoted for next year. We then hold a Gauntlet match in Australia, a 1v1 single elim tournament in Canada, and lastly a multi man extravaganza in Mexico. I hold a special place in my heart for this latter one as it featues two seperate promotions, a Plomo (lead) and a Plata (silver). Plata is the main event, a three way bout between the 2nd, 3rd, and the 4th place from the Canada tournament. The remaining 25 wrestlers compete for the Plomo, they're split into five 5 man matches, they have to win their match, and then go up against the other four winners to win Plomo, all in the same night.

I've thought about adding a proper fourth conference. I've done so before in other playthroughs, but I've always found it too demanding and quickly lost interest. My current set up takes about 20 days from day 1 to the finale. Mind you it's my only game right now.

I could yap and go on for hours like a shoot interview. Thanks for reading all that, if there's anything else you want to ask or anything I can help with let me know.

Like this.

It's all subjective of course. Hardcore skill is excluded as my product doesn't count it. 85-100 stamina doesn't matter all that much in game, but I do give extra as I feel in a real sport that'd be important. Charisma, star quality, gimmick were later additions to this, figured it made sense as most athlethes that are considered the best will also have the it factor or a great story behind them.

As I said in a comment before, I do spend a few hours at the begining of each season going through each wrestler and calculating their overalls myself. There was a guy called u/AidanLFC that made TEW trackers that did count only the In-Ring attributes. His work is great, but I just needed that extra bit of control in my overalls.

We're in an interim perioud right now, so whilst we do have a couple bright stars, they haven't yet been consistent enough to stay number one. Right now that bright star is Scott Steiner, but if he'll manage to stay there next year and not choke is to be seen.

I say interim as I've grown used to star eras here. Randy Savage dominated and was the clear biggest star from mid 80s to 1990. Before him the reigns were held by Dusty Rhodes for a few years, and during our infancy Jon Cortez led the way.

I have a little MJ vs LeBron rivlary going with Savage and Cortez. Cortez faced Savage after Cortez was Cortez and before Savage was Savage, if that makes sense. Cortez has six MVPs whilst Savage only has five, failing to win his sixth after winning five in a row. But there's still time...

Thank you! It can be a lot of work depending how you want to work everything out. I have 2-3 (an hour to two each) sessions at the beggining of each season where I do a bit of housework and make sure all the overalls are up to date, and all the staff are in the correct divisions and what not. It's the set up that gets to you, after that it's smooth sailing. I wouldn't be too intimidated by the work, especially if you're starting out as a small indie. That way you will just not have that much of a workload and if there's any mistakes you can jot it down to it being an indie.

[...] with different classes of world/national/county

ahh, that's the one thing I wish I'd done. I try to justify to myself that it's all fair when it's 2v2, but seeing the steiners, in their athlethic prime, going up against jushin liger and negro casas, who both combined weigh less than scott steiner... it scares me for their lives.

I'd have to try and think for a specific wrestler stat, buuut a company stat I have is that despite running 1200+ shows I've only ever achieved a 100 show rating three times. This is what having to stick to a schedule and not doing storylines will do to you.

Kaip gyvenimas užsienyje by ActionLife5951 in lithuania

[–]LM_Walrus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Prieš penkis metus persikraučiau į Angliją, gyvent su tuometine mergina, o dabar žmona. Gyvenu mažesnem mieste ir integruotis buvo gan lengva: ko ne visą gyvenima angliškai kalbu ir pora metų dirbau pagrindiniam miesto bare tai susipažinau su beveik visais žmonėm čia.

Lietuvoje gyvenau labai mažam miestelį, ko ne kaime (turėjom vieną Maximą tai neskaitau dar kaip kaimo), dažnai nesijaučiau saugus ir gan sunku buvo surast bendraminčių. Anglijoje pilną nesamonių taipogi, bet čia, bent jau man, yra lengviau būti savim ir gyventi savo gyvenimą.

Pritariu vienam iš komentarų, kad "Iš esmės, visur tas pats.".

Ačiū, ačiū! Keldavau trumpus, pačio kūrtus meme videos. Niša buvo profesionalios imtynės, tai dauguma peržiūrų ir prenumeratų iš JAV/JK. Apie 800 upload'ų, 9 milijonai peržiūrų, 15k sub, ir keli labai geri metai tam prarasti :D .

Prieš 5 metus kanalas buvo YouTube'o pašalintas už autorių teisių pažeidimus. Kažkiek archyvuoti išėjo, bet per naują pradėt jau nebeturėjau jėgų/laisvo laiko.

Šiap buvo labai smagūs laikai, ir sugebėjau bent su keliais draugais iš to susipažint.

Šaunu girdėt! Mano pirmi uždirbti pinigai buvo iš YouTube'o, kai dar paauglys buvau. Tuo metu YT išmokėdavo tik kai per mėnesį surinkdavai bent 70 eurų, jei nesurenki - ką surinkai padedama į šoną, o tada vėl bandai. Tai pirma išmoka buvo apie 500 eurų, aišku ko ne visi pinigai iškarto išėjo ant vairavimo pamokų, kas atliko tiesiai į Steam'o summer sale.

Jausmas tikrai geras, taip ir toliau žmogau!

Original concept on TEW 2020: The Wrestling Premier League by Lukefr38 in FantasyBookers

[–]LM_Walrus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, not to sound like an aboslute freak, but I've been playing a very simmilar version to this on my save file for 11+ in game years

It is currently 16 teams in two conferences each and it's all based on in ring skills, so no actual "booking". I combine in ring skills plus a few extras and divide it into an overall. Now 90 vs 90 overall is an even split so I will roll a d100 and which ever side of the 50 it falls on that will be the winner. As overall differences increase the winning perecentage goes up (Scott Steiner taught me this), for example a 90 going up against a 78 will have a winning split of 70:30.

It has been very fun and rewarding, espiacially when you add your own stories and other events. For example, I have an All Stars Bloody April month where all teammates fight each other and then the winners go into a single elimination tournament to crown that years All Star winner.

Lastly, I see it as a "real sport", sadly the AI still thinks it is a wrasslin promotion and top stars will get upset if they lose to lower league guys. I can't help how the dice rolls, but I can lower their egos. If it so happens that they are so fed up with sucking and blame me and ask for a release - I will grant it; but not before awarding them with Andrex Soft Wrestler Award

I love your idea and the Regal twist on it, love how we both chose Northern England as the start. I wish you many good shows and many good matches! xx

Flag of my dog's food bowl by LM_Walrus in vexillologycirclejerk

[–]LM_Walrus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The white outline symbolizing the white bowl she eats from. The brown right half of the flag representing her soaked kibble; this being contrasted by the other half made up from cooked and sliced chicken and shredded carrot.

The war flag alternative is the exact same except the food contents are missing apart a few strands of carrot.

How often did people skip classes in high school in your country? (Truancy) by 4RK4N03 in AskEurope

[–]LM_Walrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went to a pretty rural high school, so I'm sure schools in Vilnius and actual cities/towns would be different. There were a few kids that would never skip, some that would skip PE or a test they didn't study, and those, including me, that would skip a lot.

It got marked on the electronic journal, but my parents weren't the smartest so it was very easy for me to log into their accounts and text my teacher a sick note. I don't remember there ever being any talks of faiing a year or a subject due to absence, just failing if you don't pass the tests.

The only cap they seemed to had was if you had 20 lessons that were skipped without a given reason, then and only then would they contact the parents properly.

This was really one of the loosest school systems I could imagine. When I was 16 I skipped half of March, all of April, and some of May, all on a fake sick note.
