Hello and welcome to a new modern-day TEW LP thread for 2015. If you've never seen one of these before, well, it's quite simple really – I play the wrestling management simulator Total Extreme Wrestling 2013, as the owner or booker of the WWE, and you help me out at key points. I decided to start this up because I greatly missed Rarity's Zero Buys LP, which was great. There is another longstanding and active TEW LP thread featuring teams booking the major feds of the Monday Night Wars here, and it rules for any number of reasons. In terms of format, this will be simple for you all – one option is to play it the way the MNW LP is played, with every aspect of a fed, from hiring and salary negotiation to show booking and storyline writing, delegated to player-committees. But I don't have the organizational skills to keep that together and besides, the WWE in the modern day is a superpower that is essentially impossible to challenge. From a more practical standpoint, opening up all those aspects of the game to forum decision will slow it down. So I'm following Rarity's loose format, which has me playing and writing up the game and pitching certain key decisions to the thread. ---------- So a few things first: I play TEW in my free time, but I am by no means a master. To make things easier for myself, I'll probably play with Perfect Show Theory turned off. And if you don't think something's working or you'd like to see a change in booking or write-ups, let me know. Second thing is, ----------- So with all that established, there are some things we need to establish before we begin: 1) Should we play as an owner or a booker? We chose to play as booker under company owner Vince McMahon's Raging Id! 2) Who should the player avatar be? We chose The Mystery Box, which turned out to contain Kurt Angle!

We should be a booker dealing with whatever craziness the Eater of Ketchup demands. It's Time to play The Game.

Can we not have JoMo win Money in the Bank and then immediately retcon it this time?

Let's have our Avatar be Vince, as a Booker, taking orders from the smaller angrier Vince that lives in his head.

Finally, I can fantasy book and nobody can be mad at me for it! Owner with insane mandates. TRIPLE H. ON YA KNEES, DOUG! The box must have a severed head in it, so I assume Al Snow will be involved.

Triple H, prepare for real life- No wait! We have to play as Vince McMahon, but still only play as the booker, subject to the whims of our own insane Psyche!

We need to be the booker because catering to the insane whims of Vince McMahon sounds more entertaining. Also, I want to play the Game. But The Box, it beckons. SyntheticPolygon fucked around with this message at 07:05 on Jan 22, 2015 |

Play as HHH, the booker. Playing as Vince is too easy because we couldn't be as insane as him if we tried.

Booker and Triple H. Quick question? I have an up to date this very month mod. The challenge would be harder with it being this very month...but that sort is the point.

Do you have a link to where you got it? I prefer Cpt Charisma's stuff cuz it's generally thorough and the stat spreads are pretty reasonable, but EWWarehouse doesn't have anything past, like, April (which provokes the question of where I got the August version from - the answer is that I have no idea).

Here's to score so far (+1 to Mystery Box since I took the screenshot) Also I checked and, much like a man cannot be his own father, a man cannot be a booker subject to himself. If we play as Vince it will be as owner.

Stat it exactly like Vince to work as Booker? I'm sorry but the idea of Vinnie Mac screaming at himself for how his product is turning out is too hilarious.

Settle down people, we will figure out pushes when and only when Vince has inspected the roster's quadsOnmi posted:Couldn't you just create a custom character named Vince McMahons Sanity or something? Stat it exactly like Vince to work as Booker? *e also my other computer has an October 2014 database?? I am really confused now. We can just use that one I guess Basic Chunnel fucked around with this message at 09:31 on Jan 22, 2015 |

Basic Chunnel posted:Settle down people, we will figure out pushes when and only when Vince has inspected the roster's quads As much as a desperately want to be THE KING OF KINGS, being Vince beholden to Vince's insane subconscious would actually be a great gimmick. I'm not changing my vote though, because if we were truly in character as Vince we'd never put the belt on Ambrose Also if you do get a "literally right now," mod for this so our very first booking assignment can be the Royal Rumble I will mark the gently caress out because ours will probably be better than the real one.

Ah, I was in the wrong forum apparently! Thank you for the link, I'll plug this into TEW and see how things look. If it checks out I'll just revise the OP to say that we're starting from January.
