I may type out a diary of my most succsessful EWR game to date. The only problem is that I haven't kept any records really of what happened, so I'll have to everything from memory, which may be a problem.

I only have documented shows and what not from the last 6 months, so most of my 'talking about the past' will be on memory too. The best part of these will probably be whats current in the game though, so youll be fine.

OK. Thanks. I'll probably wait a while, just to get the form and style down and everything.

OK. Thanks. I'll probably wait a while, just to get the form and style down and everything. Im basing mine pretty much directly off of how Jed Shaffer is doing his on WC, but im adding my companies past just to add to the story. So, if you need inspiration, his is very good.

Yeah, I'll probably start reading his.
We should try and get him here.

I think I can help bring him here. Jed Shaffer ~I'll be doing my past from memory, too, so don't feel bad.

I just realized that a diary would probably be stupid,as I book the same 8 matches every show for about a month or two. It makes the game way easier(but would never, ever work in real life)

You could just say whats going on, and post your PPV's, business info, talent moves, PI position, all that good stuff, and it would be just as good.

OK. I'll just give the basic run-down at this point:
-Monday, May 11, 2009(Game started September 1st 2007).
-Two Prime Time Shows, both on Fox, on Monday and Wednesday.
-Running 12 PPVs a year.
-100% PI Global
-#1 Company. WWE is #2 at anywhere from 95-99%
-$111,638,115 in the bank, and am making $10M+ a month profit.
-The industry is at 87%, and waning.
-68 workers on the roster.
-My Main eventers are as follows: Danielson:Face Castagnoli:Face Kevin Steen:Face;ROH World Champ Quackenbush:Face Samoa Joe:Face Jimmy Jacobs:Heel Rocky Romero:Heel;#1 contender Roderick Strong:Heel
-My Upper Midcarders are as follows: Aries:Face Kendrick:Face Sabu:Face Shelley:Heel Albright:Heel Daniels:Heel El Generico:Heel E. Burke:Heel Jimmy Rave:Heel Mike Mondo: Heel

Thats all I'm gonna go into right now(because I'm lazy), unless you guys would like to know more.

Good lord you went to the top fast. And you are rich as hell. I havent lost money in a month since 07, i believe, and I still only have $58M.
When did you first reach 100% PI?
Also, damn you for being able to grab Joe. When his deal with TNA was coming up in my game, TNA was 100% global and i was around 40%, and TNA matched by 300k/mo with creative control deal. Sigh.

I tried to steal Joe, but he wouldn't come to me, but then TNA didn't resign him, so he became a free agent. Same thing happened with Low Ki. Good luck on my part.
I just got to 100% this month. WWE was beating me, but I got my 2nd show(my monday night show to compat Raw) and now I am finally beating WWE.
I was lucky because when my game started, the industry was at around 80% and rising, so I made a killing of house shows, and because I only had about 10-15 guys signed on written deals, my expenses were down big time.
I also have many "self-made stars". When I started, most of my guys were in the 60's-70's, and now I think I have 7 or 8 guys who have 90+ overness, and none of those were gotten by cheating.
3 great programs that will get you 4* to 5* matches every night that you might not think of are:
Jimmy Jacobs vs. Kevin Steen Rocky Romero vs. Claudio Castagnoli The Briscoes vs. Cabana/Steel

Ace Steel retired in my game, so no go there. Ive been trying like hell for a year to push Jacobs but its just not happening! Jacobs/Steen is an interesting pairing though. My biggest self made star has to be Joey Ryan. I forget how over he was at the beginning, but it wasnt much. Hes the only person who has held both my TV Title, and my World Title, and he Main Evented my Wreslemania, so hes been solid. Do you have Danielson on a written deal? Because he and Nigel both left my company when I went global. Those whores. The only thing I seem to have over you is CM Punk, but im sure youll be able to steal him sooner or later.

Danielson was the first person I signed to a written deal. Thats what I did within the first month. I signed everyone I used to a written deal. But I still only have 20-25 guys to written deals, thus cutting my costs.

Yea, so did I, but Danielson and Nigel had japanese commitments throughout my entire game, still do, actually. I kept them around on open deals cause they were freakin Danielson and Nigel
