How many shows per week (game time) do you guys run?
I play to an actual calendar, rather than a made up "stardate", with a weekly Raw/Nitro esque show on a Monday, and the monthly PPV on the last Sunday of each month. Now I'm wondering if this is enough. Should I step it up to two shows a week?
I'm currently playing 2088, and was going to wait until 2119 "New Beginning" to bump to two shows a week, and a monthly PPV...but now I'm wondering if I should do it sooner.
I'm away it's "Up to you, Promoter", but I'm interested to hear how you guys run things.

It really depends on what you want to do.The roster starts really getting big in 2091 and that's when you're going to start needing to find space for guys. I would say if you really want to run a second show 2092-2118 are the years you'll want to run two shows. 2119 sees the roster shrink down a lot and running two shows would mean you're going to be running the same matches over and over again.
I would advise against running two shows a week. Two shows plus a monthly PPV means you'll be running 116 cards per year. You're going to burn through a lot of feuds and match ups and it's going to be tedious at times.
My standard is 1 show a week. If I run a second show it's a B show with squash matches so I'm not burning through regular matches.

I think maddog said it best in his first sentence. It depends on what you want to do. If you feel you can run two shows a week and want to then go for it.
Right now I am focusing on LoW but in doing so I am doing the same as when I was playing more GWF. I run 4 feds with a weekly show and a few PPV's but I did not do monthly ones. Just find your comfort zone where you get as much action in and enjoy it without it becoming a chore.

I run one show a week, for 52 cards. Each show is 7 matches.

With my reboot fed starting in 2074 I started with 12 cards per year. I am bumping up to 18 now that I'm in 2076.
By 2085 I will be up to 26 per year. And I believe 2090 will be up to 52 a year, following the way I had my old fed.

For my GWF - Into the NOW, I run 50 cards per year... 8 supershows (1 to start the year and 1 to finish) with 6 regular cards between each... Each regular card has 8 matches...
