thanks.

HWA has jumped up to national, and AAA back over 10% PI, making this war a three-way dance now.

Is there any point in giving money to other promotions and/or to charity?

Give money to other promotions if you find that the talent they produce is pretty good, and you can hire them away when you feel like it. I did that with CHIKARA when they were going down.

But giving money to charity? I don't have a clue.

from the official FAQ in the game

(Q) What's the point of donating to charity?
(A) It gives you a nice warm glow inside.

I forgot where I read it (I think over at ewbattleground) that if you give money to charity it increases your chances of getting a T.V. timeslot.

[JMA]

Giving to charity SHOULD increase your public image. I don't think it does, but it should.

Here's a quick question: Were Banks and Ferrara still working for WCW when it closed? I found out that Sullivan was fired before the company closed, so I need some new WCW writers for my scenario. I also added Terry Taylor as a road agent.

[Andrew is Good]

I'm new to EWR, but it's pretty fun right now. I guess it would probably be more of a challenge if I started with a company from scratch.

[JMA]

I've added Russ Haas, M.I. Smooth, and Miss Jones to my 2001 scenario. Sometimes editing can get a bit tedious, but it's worth it.

How unethical would it be to do this? Sign AAA's(my nearest competitor) most talented worker to an open deal(can't sign him exclusivly) and book him in ladder matches that he constantly loses via sick bump, hoping he gets hurt?

Hey I did it with Vince Russo. I booked him for three straight cards in every match and he would lose and get hurt.


Too bad there isn't a 2/3 falls match seeing as how I'm putting the Briscoes in the spotlight

The thing about EWR is that you really can't "win" per se since it's not a traditional game with a purpose and an ending. It's basically just an open ended game where you make your own goals and see if you can accomplish them. For example i always like to start out as a small-ish fed, and see how far you can take them. If you are new to EWR, it's usually a good idea to play as WWE since you can get a feel for booking matches and everything without needing to worry too much about money and stuff.



Question - What is the purpose of giving money to smaller promotions? Is there a benefit?

is a developmental camp really worth the $500,000? And is improving my training camp from Good to Superb worth the $4,000,000?

D-camps are worth while since they take Stiffness away and add some overness to guys who were lingering. IE in my game Akeem and Hacksaw are down in my D-Camp with young y2j, Stevie, and 19 y/o Chris Daniels

So, Jim Duggan retired and became an announcer...with talent of 82. Guess who ROH's new announcer is.

another random stat from my game.

I have raised the ROH World and ROH World Tag titles from 50 and 40 respectivley to 93 and 80 respectivley.

Wow. In the game, I went to the internet section and went to grapplefanatics.net. There I went to Scott Keith's postbag. One of the questions was "Which wrestler has gotton the furthest on the least amount of skill?" Now, this is an updated roster from about two months ago. So, really,you probably have a good few in mind someone would say, right? Scott's response was "Thanks to certain promotion's obsessions with steroid freaks there's a big list to choose from, but I'm going to go with Candice Michelle."

It usually does for me too, just this time it said Candice, and I found it strange.
