Hello, Can anyone please give me relationships for Lance Storm and Michael Cole? I want to use them as workers in a new game. While I can create stats off the top of my head, I'm clueless about relationships. Thank you

I like having TNA on Global, good call. Thanks for the help!

Hey Bill, thanks as always for what you do, yadda yadda. I've been looking at WWE's active roster and had some ideas for potential gimmick changes. Throw 'em around and do with them what you will. Hope everybody's well.. -Jack Swagger from Legitimate Athlete to Cocky- LA to me seems more suited for someone like Goldberg when he first debuted, or Taz as the human suplex machine. Or someone like Shelton Benjamin as a face early in his career..basically, they should let their wrestling do the talking. I think cocky suits Swagger a little better as his whole promo is him talking about his own accomplishments; thats what he's all about. -The Miz from Cocky to Obnoxious- The reason we're meant to dislike Miz is simple: he's annoying! -MVP from Legitimate Athlete to Cool- again, not sure he fits the legit athlete mold -Chris Masters to Fun Babyface- the dancing pecs seems to be the basis for his act right now -William Regal from Royalty to Arrogant- He's not meant to be an actual king, and he doesn't do the king get-up like Booker did. Its not the main part of his character. -Batista from Man Beast to Egomaniac- the guy is obsessed with his own image, thats what the heel turn and the beef with Cena is all about, Batista deciding he hasn't been getting his props as the #1 man. Its all he talks about. Its an ego trip. And he doesn't mind walking away from matches and attacking people to eventually get his way, because he's obsessed with it now. MB worked for him as a face but this sticks out as one that needs updating to me. -Linda McMahon from Authority Figure to Unique- When I loaded my new game, the writers said AF wasn't working. Besides, should we EVER have to worry about Linda McMahon's gimmick "going stale?" Thats crazy. -Heath Slater from Rock Star to Cool- The writers also had a problem with this one. He doesn't fit the gimmick description anyway, where Chris Jericho during the King of the World days is the example. Also, I'm not sure if you know that Primo currently has higher overness than Carlito? Maybe bring Carlito up from 67 to around 73? Primo is at 70.

Wireless remotes are such a pain in the ass. I kinda wish wired remotes were still the standard.

Auror

Do we know when it'll be back up? A couple rounds of CoD4 has sort of become my nightly ritual..

Labeouf (god knows if I spelled that right) is a funny dude. He'll never win best actor, but yeah...he fit the role. And Van Helsing was good.

Really? There are Burton trademarks in there, similar to what you see in Nightmare, Corpse Bride, Ed Scissorhands, etc. The white faces and the dark eyes, the white contrasting with black everywhere in the film, and whatnot. All things considered it looks incredibly similar to Batman Returns, its like they take place around the corner from each other.

As LGM alluded to, Sweeney Todd is excellent on Blu-Ray. Seeing Burton's cinematography, lighting, and makeup in BR is just awesome. He's really a master at using color and lighting to make his films intriguing visually and the format obviously brings that out. Can't recommend it enough.

I'm glad the show is continuing...I'll assume it won't be as good as the Scrubs we remember, but what does that really matter? It'll still probably be one of the best shows on TV. I wonder if they'll have an actual main character (the young black intern?), or if they'll make it a true ensemble cast. Too much attention on Turk, Carla and Cox might get old after awhile without JD, and I don't wanna see this become the That 70s Show episodes after Topher left. Should be interesting.

Awesome! I'll be hella interested in this when you put out the update with more names. The name generators I find through Google always give me the shittiest names, they're no help at all. Good work.

Gotta second Heat of Gold by Neil Young, great song, great harmonica.

I don't know fellas, I don't think I want Scrubs without JD and Turk. The show is their journey, and without them, the spirit of it is lost. Makes me think of the That 70s Show episodes after Topher left. Scrubs wouldn't be that bad because the interns are interesting...but there's no way they could make it feel quite right, in my opinion.

Good. It would've been pretty lame if they tried to convince us that Gordon and Batman can't tell whether or not a person is dead.

Justice League Unlimited is greatness.

The guy commits. Gotta give him that.

Well I'd rather not upload any more data...I trust enough has been shown that nobody thinks this is some kinda hoax. Potter, LOTR and Pirates can be found elsewhere in this thread (sans some minor changes/additions/subtractions). The Star Wars characters have already been created in the editor, and the list has been deleted, so you'll just have to wait to see that one. DC Comics (which is finished) and Marvel Comics (which I'm just starting) are in spoiler tags below. Characters from Incredible Hulk and Iron Man will be added when those films are released on DVD, as with my job at a video store, I didn't bother to see 'em in the theatre. The workers are seperated by their specific film series.

The thing is, I kind of have my mind set on finishing these 15 promotions that have been chosen, and getting this thing released. I may end up continuing to work on the scenario after its finished, eventually releasing some sort of second edition with more promotions and a free agent pool. But for now I want to get this thing done and get it out there, cause by the looks of it there are some people who really want to play it as soon as possible. Along those lines, regarding ideas for promotions in general: unless there's something out there nobody's thought of that this game just needs, new ideas will have a tough time getting into the game (or at least the initial release). The only way they'll get in is if we run into some problem while creating one of the 15 promotions already chosen (such as not having enough workers or not having a face/heel ratio even close to even, either of which could happen with promotions like Terminator and Matrix). Glad to see the enthusiasm. I'm doing what I can to get this scenario out there for you. (Y) You certainly may make a suggestion, and thats a good one. That change may well be made if there are no objections. I really wanted to give him the Guru gimmick. The description seems to fit him perfectly: "This worker portrays a guru, whose fast-talking and persuasive tongue get him what he wants." Thats exactly how Jack gets what he wants. And on top of that, one of the requirements of the gimmick is 80+ charisma, so you know his high charisma would be utilized. Alas, the gimmick requires a Heel or Tweener disposition, and it would have been a bit of a stretch to make Jack a Tweener as he's pretty clearly a Face in the 2nd and 3rd movies. Unable to think of anything else, I went with Unique, but Fun Drunk could work well also. DC Comics is just about finished, meaning 5 down and 10 to go. Marvel is likely next. Hopefully promotions will be banged out quicker as as we get to the franchises with smaller rosters. DC went pretty quickly. I'll keep ya guys posted.

Well...huh. Its sure been a long time. I see the board this was posted on doesn't even exist anymore... Anybody out there still interested in this? I apologize for my abrupt disappearance, to those of you who were excited about it. I actually ended up traveling through Israel (and unexpectedly India) for the last 2 months or so. Great trip, lot of fun, some amazing experiences...unfortunately, EWR wasn't the first thing on my mind. I really wish I could've gotten a post up before I left explaining the situation, but plans for the trip only became concrete a couple of weeks before I left, and that unfortunately didn't happen. I've been back for about two weeks or so, and have picked up work on this again. I finished up Star Wars (something like 74 workers), and I'm about halfway through DC Comics. I'd like to reiterate that I'm certain this will be finished sooner or later. I hope there's still some interest out there. Just thought I'd let you guys know this is still going ahead. Anybody still listening? Regarding smaller feds, I do remember I planned out what level each of the 15 promotions currently planned would be, and a few of them were as low as Cult. Not sure anything smaller than that is needed? Regarding money, you're right. We'll have to figure out a way to implement that. Again, sorry for the abrupt disappearance...hope people are still interested.

And as a New Jerseyan, saying something bad about Kevin Smith gives me the liberty to stab him... ^_^

Great to see someone interested, as by the time this is done with, I'll have put an immense amount of effort into it. Thanks for reading all my nonsense... ^_^ Regarding promotions, I'm going to have a strict rule that all promotions must include at least 2 films. The idea is to have the biggest movie franchises up against each other, so stand-alone films don't really have a place. Bit of an update with promotions, the Tarantino/Rodriguez promotion has been split into a Tarantino compilation (which will include Pulp Fiction, Rez Dogs, Kill Bill, and probably From Dusk Till Dawn), and an El Mariachi promotion to represent Rodriguez. The Ocean's Series and The Terminator have tentatively been added to the promotions list, bringing us to a total of 15 at the moment: Blade DC Comics El Mariachi Harry Potter Lord of the Rings Marvel Comics The Matrix Mortal Kombat The Mummy Ocean's Trilogy Pirates of the Caribbean Quentin Tarantino Compilation Star Wars The Terminator Underworld Progress had slowed down for awhile due to my taking about a month off from this as I began my college career this semester, but its been picked up again. Star Wars (with its annoyingly big roster) is almost complete, haven't yet decided which one I'll take on next. By the way, I've just about knocked out most of the biggest franchises, and my main sources have been Wikipedia pages devoted to listing the characters that appear in the films...if there are any big fans of some of these other ones (Pirates, LOTR, Star Wars and Potter are okay) who know where I might find a list of characters, it'd be great if you could share a link...I haven't yet checked how well Wikipedia covers all of these. Regarding staff, still undecided on how it will be handled. I could just pull off random names of people who worked on the movies, but I'd have no idea what their stats should look like. I'm also thinking more and more that the promotions should be made to look like actual wrestling companies, with the Titles and Events being named as such. Someone had an idea that Titles could be achievements characters can get in their movies, which would work great for something like Lord of the Rings (titles could be Ringbearer, Ruler of Gondor, Ruler of Rohan, etc.) but it would be hard to decide what to use for some of the other promotions, like the Comics, Matrix, Mummy, Tarantino, Underworld, Blade, etc. Don't hesitate to post your thoughts.

Not sure about some of your others, but that would be incredible. (Y)

Even though I agree with you that it isn't even close to what it used to be, new Scrubs is better than no Scrubs.

My father and I made the drive up to Buffalo for a weekend in early September (I remember because it was for the Bills opener), and I went to the Falls for the first time. It was a bit strange, because there was all this mist surrounding the area to the point where you couldn't see the bottom of the waterfall, where the water fell to, that is...it took away from the sight a bit. My father remarked he didn't remember it being that way, and that picture is a much clearer view. Any idea why it was different when I went?
