Board 8 > Phoenix-verse TEW mod Topic 2: first we need to talk about parallel universes

(+) Yeah! (+)

I left myself a lot of wiggle room I wound up not needing. Fine with that lol.
22: TV/Figurehead testing
23: General fixes
24: TV/Figurehead implementation
25: Dojos/Training/Future Feds (old and MEX)
26-27: 7+8 FA (13 Cosmere, 2 new)
28-29?: Bankruptcy experimentation (or working ahead)
30?-31: MEX prep
Apr: Fate, Dangan Ronpa
May: When They Cry, Ciconia, Ace+Aviary Attorney
Jun: Gen FA, Cosmetics, Cleanup

...Mexico's gonna be super chill compared to Japan. This time of year is USUALLY pretty hectic, so I planned accordingly and then we had a pandemic instead. Might try to sneak in some working ahead, since even with the power of summer on my side the US block is going to be A Lot.

Forgot today existed, apparently. Make that:
21: 8 Cosmere FA
22: General Fixes
23: TV/Figurehead testing
24: TV/Figurehead implementation
25: Dojos/Training Future (old+MEX)
26: 7 FA (Cosmere+ENA+Nina)
27-29?: Bankruptcy experimentation
30?-31: MEX prep

For the bankruptcy thing, I'm going to start by seeing if there are easier product settings that would fit for the target feds, because I think a lot of the strugglers have really weird products (because they are/would be really weird feds >_>). Also might ask GDS forums if there's a specific issue with India. Will also look into raising the starting budget, but I think if a fed is going to burn through like 5mil, they'll also burn through like 50mil, y'know? I'm not sure it's a type of contract issue, but that's also possible.

Feds I'm looking at for this: All of India (except nL), WWF, WCW, TNA, DGMN, SnK, SG-1, WoT

bankruptcy really feels like it shouldn't have a t

Cutting: Ashweather Cett

putting us at 7/7, had to fight my brain for each of those but we won this round

---

YEH (huuug)

Way to go Tom!

Success!

....Not gonna lie, Bam Bam/Kenny and Ultimo/Punk do sound kinda rad in terms of matches I had never even considered before. (Even though I have a *bit* of an issue with Punk right now (just a NL thing nothin' serious this time))

...And I don't know why this sticks out as surreal considering the mod but Jarrett ad Egbert next to each other is *bwaaaaaaah*.

---

Rocky vs Galad would be a legit feud.

Galad makes a great foil for the imperfect Rocky.

---

Kinda drawing blanks on future fed/school ideas for Mexico (VNs), what am I forgetting or missing?

Fate, all of When They Cry, Ace (and Aviary) Attorney, and Dangan Ronpa have full rep
Have DDLC and Katawa Shoujo and Clannad down
Haven't played enough of Vallhalla or any of Uta Ray Romano
Don't really wanna put in E17 or Steins;gate
Homestuck-related stuff would make more sense in India

Still feel like I'm missing something, any thoughts? Will probably take DDLC and Clannad as the future feds.

---

Hatoful Boyfriend... apparently Corpse Party counts, but I'm actually not a fan of that series and do't believe they have reps as is... G-Senjou no Maou? Not familiar with that one's content beyond the premise, though... Mystic Messenger.... checking TvTropes says Sakuya Izayoi Gives You Advice And Dabs is a thing and that just upsets me, and Raging Loop is the last that actually comes to mind.


---

I actually came up with G-Senjou too lol (is good!), and I suppose Hatoful wouldn't be a bad idea lol. Raging Loop I probably need to get and I am oddly tempted by whatever the Sakuya thing is lol.

---

I love blank slate feds

Eked out another win over brain last night, but turned out it was one of those surprise gauntlet matches, and sleep pinned me in a couple seconds after a chair shot. 1.5/7 but that'll be easy to make up over the next few days so I ain't worried.

---

hecking brain chairs ;-----; (huuuug)

In other news it's time to try to figure out why some of these companies are consistently going out of business! My first guess is product settings, so I'm going to change to more sponsor-friendly settings. I'm open to suggestions on some of these.

MSPA: Performance Art > No-Style Style
UTDR: Monster Battle > Guerilla Warfare
OotS is already very attractive to sponsors, but they seem to be short on cash so I gave them x10.
UCA is neutral, gave them x10
B8WL is positive, gave them x10
WWF is positive, gave them more money but not x10
TNA I am okay if they fizzle
DGMN is neutral, doubled their money
SNK is positive, gave them x5
WoT is neutral and has a lot of money, increased their Merchandising

Product was not the consistently big deal I expected it to be. I'll see how this goes. I think next steps are maybe just overhauling starting money and production values for everybody?

---

Results:
MSPA: Alive, but in the red
UTDR: Alive
OotS: Alive
UCA: Alive and doing well
B8WL: Alive
WWF: Dead
DGMN: Alive, but in the red
SnK: Alive, but deep in the red
WoT: Dead

That's a pretty good start I think. Would like to figure out WoT's deal because they're like 0 for 5 now, but WWF I might be willing to write off as the most frequent victim of OCN's volatility and I'm not all that worried about feds that go bankrupt AFTER the five year mark, y'know?

---

Gonna let a second sim run today and work on MEX names and stuff. Feel free to pull up the sheet (company overview tab) if you wanna give feedback

---

MSPA: Dead
UTDR: Alive and doing well
OotS: Alive
UCA: Alive, but in the red
B8WL: Alive
WWF: Dead
DGMN: Dead
SnK: Dead
WoT: Dead

I think I'll call UTDR, OotS, UCA, and B8WL fixed for now and keep buffing the others.

I'm not deep diving trivia for these but I did notice that Sweeney is wrestler of the year 2026, heck yea

---

MSPA: Moneyx2, Merch+1
WWF: Moneyx2, Crash TV -> Attitude Entertainment
DGMN: Merch+1, Lucharesu Amped Up -> Episodic Entertainment
SnK: Moneyx5, Merch+1
WoT: Lucharesu -> Classic Mainstream Puroresu, Elayne's roster size Very Large -> Large, which might require me to boot four wrestlers if it sticks

---

Woo Sweeney!

---

MSPA: Alive but dying
WWF: Alive but dying
DGMN: Alive
SnK: Alive and doing well
WoT: Dead

dark one got hands


---

WoT: Elayne's roster pref back to V Large, +10 Prestige, x5 Money, +10% revenue split from broadcaster
DQ (which has died in all these recent runs): Moneyx10

Late entry: ENA

---

WoT: STILL DEAD
DQ: Good

TNA: Moneyx10
WoT: +1 Merch, +10 Prestige, PPV carrier now gives them $10k a show for no reason, IDK I am kinda out of ideas man
BR: Moneyx4

Late entry: Nina Saotome (the indy vtuber pile does not stop from getting taller)

Next is MEXICO and we are starting with F/GO. Mexico is a pretty chill area, so I'm going to try to get a lot of the "third month" stuff done ahead of time, and then maybe in June I'll be able to get a bit of a headstart on the headache that will be the US.

Lemme know if you disagree with Mordred being female, or having Family Feud with Arturia

I feel like both of those points are a bit more complex than any options TEW gives but that's my best shot at workin em out

while we're on Apocrypha I think we already decided Astolfo is male, right?

---

y'know what I'm just gonna go ahead and do Jack from memory rather than looking her up on work internet >_>

---

Those first two seem about as right as can be handled by 2020, yeh. ^___^''

And yes on the last bit aye ^_^.

...Annnnd that is very, very fair ^____^'''''

---

Man Fate Arthur stuff is weird

---

to be entirely fair most other Fate stuff is equally weird!

---

Fate is an odd thing in general really ^_^'

---

Probably why I only made it through Fate/Zero

---

so hey now I know about beast vii so that's fun

frickin' not even quite done with shimousa

---

According to the wiki, Quetzalcoatl's favorite luchador is Mistico. Y'know, Sin Cara.

I don't know what I am going to do with this information but I feel like there's gotta be something

---

I do remember hearing she really likes his theme, too. ^_^''

---

Got through today fine but I had noooothing left in the tank for TEW, we're at about 0.25/6. Will spread that over the next three days, shouldn't be a huge deal.

---

I'm amused at how many "flashy technicians" I'm making. It's not a thing you really see much in the real world, but I think it fits a lot of mage-y types for this.

https://gyazo.com/0f8175e49cd22b282aa8e0febcc19753
lol shiki, first time I've seen that

---

going with female for d'Eon if that's cool with everybody

brain is kicking my butt today but at 9 pm it is time for the hope spot perhaps

---

That's a-okay on my end at least, yeh ^_^

---

F/GO keeps introducing trios titles. I'm okay with that I think.

Q has the Holy Grail. We're all screwed.

WoT and TNA are still dying every time :\

Somehow Show v. Venis got MotY

---

Stuff went quickly and it's a very slow work day so I knocked out "tomorrow" as well. Fate done, Dangan Ronpa coming up!
