For those who do TV Shows...

[CanadianPitbull]

For TV Tapings I do about 10 matches plus segments. House shows I do 6 matches and an interview or two. Supercards/PPV's I do up to 12 matches and interviews/segments.

Gorillasrus How long does it take for me to play matches ? If its say 0min17 match about 2 minutes .

How do I enjoy matches ? I do enjoy them 31 years now . Get more frustrated when say Andre v Buddy Rogers wasn't as good a match and shorter time than say a match between S.D Jones v Lanny Poffo . Or when a champion can't get a title run going and loses the belt .

How long do I play for . Everyday its very rare I miss a day . If I do its usually because I'm feeling ill .How long do I play for ? It depends whenever I watch the telly at home I play the card game . Like the wife says are you only watching 50% of a film / tv programme though ? . I try to play as much as I can . How long for ? Varies on and off about 2-3 hours a day . I am also doing other things checking Ipad , probably falling asleep (days I get up at 0500hrs for work on early starts) etc

Hi Bazzy 🙂
Im just curious to ask you that.
How do you come up with that 0m17 for 2 min of real time?
Do you somehow count the Moves or something like that?

[Bazzy]

Walkswithwolf Every move I do is a second in time , so roll two dices see who starts a match is 0min01 etc . Plus I'm also watching the telly at the same time . If something interesting is on and happening . Good chance I may stop playing the game and look at it .

We have so many different ways to measure match times.
Almost every Promoter has his own way to do it.
I think that would never saw something official by Filsinger Games.
With maybe a few things.
I checked out the Rules to a Fray Match.The Rules are in the Evolve Starter Handbook.
Im im right,then there is written that each 3 min a new Wrestler comes in.
And 15 Moves should be good for that.
Im not sure just Offense counts?So 20 Minutes would be 100 Offense Moves

Here's a little reference chart I made a while back to put together a TV show.

Each TV Show is allotted a specific number of points.

Weekly TV Shows
1-Hour (ex: WWF Superstars, ) - 4
2-Hour (ex: WCW 7:05, AEW) - 8
3-Hour (ex: Raw) - 12
*these shows have a leeway of +/- 0.25 points

TV Specials
1 1/2-Hour (ex: SNME, Clash) - 6
*these shows have a leeway of +/- 0.50 points

Each of the following four 'segments' take up points to fill the time
Squash Match (0.5) - Any match involving a wrestler with an "*If the opponent uses his finisher, this wrestler loses automatically"

In-Ring Event (1) - Promo or interview, contract signing, talk show, arm wrestling match etc.

Filler (0.25) - Backstage angle or interview, video package, vignette etc.

Regular Match (1) - Any match that doesn't involve a jobber.

Sample 1-Hour TV Show
1. Squash (0.5)
backstage interview (0.25)
2. Squash (0.5)
video hyping rivalry (0.25)
Piper's Pit interview (1)
3. Squash (0.5)
backstage angle (0.25)
4. Main Event (1)

Total - 4.25

This is just a quick reference guide I use when putting together TV shows. It's not perfect and there a ton of variables that could be incorporated (such as length of matches/segments etc.) but I just wanted something simple to somewhat replicate them.

This is really good stuff.

For my MLW Fusion cards (one-hour TV episodes, I almost always have two singles matches, one tag team match, and one interview segment. If I am running long on time, I might roll on Ian Riccaboni’s card to add some drama.

But I really like your system. Very cool!

Thanks homie. It sounds like the format you're using works perfectly and is also very realistic. I need to read up on your fed.

Really like the format and structure here. Think it helps give me some ideas to continue developing the parts of my fed with plenty of room for specifics I enjoy. Thanks, Slymm.
