When the GWF gets bigger and has a lot of wrestlwrs, did you use a seperate brand like SD and Raw? If so what did you use for names? Did you have 1 shows per week per brand and do a draft or cross wrestlers on tothe others show?

You know..I never did the first go around, but I'm seriously considering doing it once the War Games editions are done.

Funny you said that! I just split my roster up into Two brands. "Monday Nite Mayhem" (Raw) and "Friday Nite Showdown" (Smackdown). Splitting the roster up has been the best move I'v made!! and I'm loving it. Currently I'm in 2095 and I have 1 show a week per brand.

I plan to split into 2 brands in 2089. I plan to balance the rosters at the start of each game year using Rahl's ratings system. I plan to do 1 show per brand per week but I don't plan to allow wrestlers to cross shows.
For names, I'll probably go with Turbo and Meltdown.

I never did a brand split in my GWF fed but I do have a brand split in my LOW fed Major League Wrestling.
One of my brands is called RAW and one of my brands is called Smackdown and I also just started up a developmental brand last month called Minor League Wrestling that mostly uses the cards from Legends of the Future.
I really like using the brand split because it allows me to maximize the number of LOW cards I use without overloading a single roster while still keeping everything inter-connected under the name Major League Wrestling. And I think those advantages would work for those of you planning a brand split in your GWF feds.
Also, the way I work my brand split is I almost never have wrestlers on one brand show up for a show on another brand but I do have some PPVs like Summer Slam and Wrestlemania that are presented by both brands and in the Royal Rumble of course wrstlers from both brands battle each other too. And I do have an annual draft between my two brands to create new matchup ideas.
And once I get all caught up in all my COTG feds (I think that will happen this year) then I'm actually planning on expanding Major League Wrestling to a third main brand to go with RAW and Smackdown. The new upcoming brand won't be called ECW however- but it will be something sort of close to it.
