Have I missed something?

[pressslam]

Hi I've been away and if anyone takes any notice it's been a usual pattern with me. This time I want to get back into LOW, I will use the stat tracker to keep my stats in.
I did want to start it earlier but I had plans that were a little too big and wouldn't have worked well until the fed had really got under way. This time I just want to satify the urge of playing by keeing it small and manageable.
I figure if I have 22 singles wrestlers that would allow 11 for the LWF Championship, 1 Champ and 10 contenders and the same for an Intercontinental belt.
For tag teams I'll have 5-6 teams and I'll also have Sherri and Ida Mei involved along with several managers and finally 5-6 wrestlers who will act as jobbers and won't be a regular feature.
Doing things this way I can cover the whole roster with 2-3 shows max and have Pay Per Views involving all the stars without it being excessively long. Of course if you have any opinions please share them.
Getting to the question, I see that in another thread there is talk of a Create A Wrestler feature, does this mean we have or will soon have the ability to add stats and create wrestlers?
I know I haven't been on Online much but that is not because it isn't great it's just that other things have taken priority, I certainly will continue to subscribe to the stat tracker because that is where I intend to put all my LOW fed info into, if we can add our own LOW wrestlers in then that would be fantastic and I certainly would continue to get the game table.
I would like to use the GWF too, but it's either one or the other and LOW is my favourite even though the GWF is amazingly written and only seems to get better. I know one of the great things about this game is how it gives complete control to the promoter but I do think for people like me who don't have that much time or would like to run 2 feds so has limited time it would be great to have a match generator, maybe like 2 hats where you can put 'Heels' in 1 and 'Faces' in the other and the computer could generate and determine who faces who and maybe throw in a special match etc.
Anyway to all those who put there time effort and ideas as well as those who support those people keep up the good work!!

The Create-a-Wrestler feature is actually very near completion. What's in progress now is the creation by Werner Mueck and myself of a vast library of a very diverse selection of stock art pieces for Create-a-Wrestler card fronts.

Card backs (meaning moves, stats, ratings, names, etc) will be totally customizable and usable within all features of COTGonline.

It's a big project, but it's coming along amazingly well. I don't want to speculate on an exact release date, but we're shooting for 2008.

Osk, if you want a copy of any of my Werner drawn bootlegs for submission to the database, let me know they're already loaded.

It sounds great, I certainly will look forward to it.
On a different subject without starting a new thread, if I want to have 2 different rankings for different divisions, in this case a LWF Heavyweight division and an Intercontinental division how can I achieve that?
I think someone did answer it before however I can't remember how it is done, I think it involved entering something on the match tag.

[squire]

Use the tags when creating the match. When you do your rankings you can specify to count only matches with a specific tag. For example, if you tag your main events with "main event", you could then see who is top ranked when it comes to main event matches.

Thanks for your advice squire but I tried it and it didn't work. It's frustrating because now I need to memorise who wrestling in what category.
Also I noticed that my Champ Buddy Rogers is ranked second because he has had less matches. I would have thought that if he was Champ he wouldn't be in the rankings but listed at the top.
