I have one GWF fed, and one Legends "Territory System" fed that has 6ish small feds embedded into it that I rotate through. I tend to bounce between legends and CotG depending on my mood and where I have ideas/momentum. At some point I'd like to run a Kronos style fed, and a "vintage" LOW fed that focuses on older era cards that I currently dont use in my Territory fed.

Great question! I have 1 COTG Fed, 2 Legends (1 Online & 1 Physical Cards) and 9 Indy Feds. For all my Feds it's all about winning championships. For each game month I run a singles and a tag team tournament with the top performers earning title matches. I do this for several reasons: 1. The unpredictable nature of a tournament adds an extra layer of fun and excitement to the game for me. 2. When I play I don't want to spend time thinking up angles and storylines. I just want to roll out matches. 3. I have nary a creative bone in my body so even if I did want come up with storylines and angles they would probably get pretty repetitive or would be so outlandish that some of Vince Russo's ideas would look great by comparison. I rotate through all my Feds one at a time so they all get equal attention. Once I add in more COTG and Legends sets I will likely have to split those rosters into multiple Promotions though. I'm the same way as Paul is. My month is made up of a single elimination tournament with the winners getting a shot at the championship at Supercard at the end of the month. More drama, more surprises and any matches that end in doubles can be added to the Supercard if they don't win the tournament. Alot of times the tournaments write themselves. I agree. In my COTG Fed Star Warrior and Havoc have ended up facing each other numerous times for various championships. Next time they meet up I will likely make it a specialty match to up the ante a bit.

If you include the ones I have rolled and posted on over the last year it would be 7-11 depending on how you look at it. The break down goes like this.
COTG feds:
GWF which is two shows with their own rosters, GWF Adrenaline and Castilex Glory. There is crossover in regard to titles and sometimes on PPVs.
CLAW which is two shows with mostly their own rosters, CLAW which is the main roster and PAW which is the development fed. People on the PAW roster sometimes show up on CLAW shows and on CLAW PPVs.
GWF-DL (Development league) which is the development for GWF. I use mostly GWFZ cards for these five separate rosters. (I guess that changes number to 11-15 depending on how you look at it). None of these guys have appeared on main roster but a few main roster people have appeared here.
Classic which is using the reimagined color original sets. This is the one fed that I run that is closest to canon.
LOW/Indie:
Its' a Mad, Mad World where I run a WWF, a WCW and an ECW like fed. I also list champions for six other feds in the shared universe.
XXWW which is a female only fed. It is in the same universe as Mad, Mad World.
Other:
RCW which uses the 80's Mania cards.
In addition to the above about a year ago I ran a sports-oriented league, thinks teams and drafts and trades and playoff each season. That one was the only one I ran using online rosters. I started with the original set and added years in order.
As far as how I do it, I would say mostly by the seat of my pants. Nah, I usually have a rough plan of which direction I want things to go and let the dice fill in the rest. I only run a few at a time. Mostly it is COTG rosters or real rosters. I am currently taking a break from COTG, CLAW and GWF-DL while playing Mad, Mad World plus XXWW, Classic and RCW. Not sure when I will get back into my sports-oriented league. I will play the ones I am playing now until I start to get burned out and/or want to get back to the COTG feds.

I think I have 18 or 19 active feds (I would have to recount all of my Indie feds to know for sure) 1 LOW fed (with a 3-brand split) 2 COTG feds (Centra and GWF, my GWF has 4 separate fed threads/chapters but they are all the same fed Ring of Vega) 15 or 16 Indie feds (all part of my Vegas Indie Universe or VIU) I rotate them. For example, Tuesday through Thrusday this week I am playing Ring of England (ROE) and then on Froday I am olaying Ring of Vegas (ROV.) We all make typos. The greats make typos that work in a different way. I know it is not Friday, er Froday, but I want to start olaying ROV now. Oley, oley, oley, oley...oley, oley. Oley, oley, oley, oley...oley, oley. Oley, oley, oley, oley...lucha, lucha.

Got to love the Flintstones. Of course, I took their vitamins as a kid so they may be mind controlling me now.

1. GWF 2. CWF 3. Legendary Women's Federation 4. Tennessee Wrestling - Memphis and Knoxville but I rotate weeks. 5. NDW 6. GoFightPow
So honestly I started a YouTube channel to keep me focused and on point with it and it's helped a lot. Having some subscribers who comment and even suggest matches at times keeps me focused on keeping up with them.

My COTG fed has been on hold for quite some time only due to me not having enough time for more than two feds at the moment.
I run a Maple Leaf Legends of Wrestling fed, which is mostly Legends but Indy wrestlers pop onto the roster from time to time. I also run a ROH: Canada fed which is mostly Indy wrestlers but Legends show up there as well. Both feds use the same method which is seasons. So each month of game time I run four cards to equal each week of programming whether its house shows or TV. Then a fifth card at the end of each month to represent the big supercard/PPV.
I break the roster up into House Show A and B and then have a main roster of talent that is on the TV shows and PPV. I don't look to book storylines I let them form organically based on who how the matches finish and if there is a feud outcome that is worth pursuing.
Pretty much it and it seems to work alright. Gives me the right amount of variety and straight forward old school storylines when needed.
After a Season is done. I see who stays on and who leaves then fill in the holes of the roster with free agent talent as needed to keep things fresh.

With both Legends or COTG use tournaments or battle royals and occasional 6/8 man tags to build rivalries or spark new ones.
Have basic COTG fed and will spark a new contenders as do not roll many matches during the summer months.
With Legends have one fed but 3 divisions to spark up contenders. Use an overall top 20 where a wrestler , say Larry Zbyszko wrestled for the American title in typical AWA or Midwest cities. Magnum TA recently won the title over Curt Hennig. Road Warriors top this divisions tag titles.
The National division covers Florida, Texas and some Southern cities as far north as Baltimore and Cincinnati. Texas or Oklahoma is the west boundary. Lou Thesz recently turned back challenges from Wladek Z and Mark Fleming. Thesz dropped the first fall in each but rallied back to retain! Again I try and use wrestlers of that era or geography. Fantastics are the National champs.
The Federal division is the Northeast with Andre reigning supreme and Bulldogs tag champs. Andre defeated Pat Patterson to win the belt and has turned back challengers from long time champ Randy Savage along with destroying fellow big men, Angelo Mosca, John Studd and Don Leo Jonathan.
I plan to hold a World Series of Wrestling to determine one World Champ for singles and tags since the 3 divisions are a bit much and would prefer to use a Top 10 to move contenders in and out. Easier to track and focus on quality of game play.
