TV Ratings System

Here is something I posted about a year or so ago and
thought I would repost it for any newcomers and anyone
else who may have missed it. Basically this is a method
to see how well your TV show or PPV did in the ratings.

I did this based on PIN tokens.Assuming that you use the
blood & guts rule (3 tokens produces blood) this should give
a good measure for your ratings.

Add up all the tokens for all the matches that took place on
your show and divide by the total number of matches.

Example.Thantos beats Star Warrior. Thantos received 3 tokens
and Star Warrior received 5.Your total for this match would
be 8.

Say you have 24 tokens over 10 matches.You currently have
a 2.4 rating.

Now add 1 for every title match with a maximum of 4 points.
If you had 3 title matches your total rating for this scenario
would be a 5.4 rating.

So basically the more pin attempts the higher the rating.
This makes sense to me because most of my best matches
involve alot of pin attempts.

Based on this formula my Clash PPV drew a 6.9 rating.That's
pretty good.The Skinhead/Prodigy match and Chaos/Paragon match
had a LOT of pin attempts that really helped boost the ratings.

In contrast the previous Monday night show drew a dismal 2.0
rating.There were several matches where the pin was made on
the first attempt and no titles were defended.

Ultimate X Match

In this match there are 14 foot high scaffold poles in
each corner of the ring attached to the posts. Steel cables
criss cross the ring at the top of the posts to form an X.
The title belt is hung from the middle. The winner is the
man who can bring the belt down. There are no ladders.

There are two ways to win the match.

The first is by successfully rolling double pin ratings.
After successfully pinning your opponent, just re-roll.

i. If successful you climb the cables, reach the X and
grab the belt, winning the match.

ii. If unsuccessful you fall from the cables. Add 1 to
pin rating. Opponent takes over on Level 2 Offense.

The second way to win the match is through rolling on the
Ultimate X chart. An offensive wrestler can roll on this
chart once he has fatigued his opponent to a Pin rating
of 7 or higher. Note while at that point an offensive
wrestler can use the chart at any time, it comes with
great potential risks and a low probability of success.

Ultimate X Chart

2 You try springboard off the ropes to the belt, but just
miss it. Opponent takes over on Level 2 Offense

3-4 You went across the cables, but are drilled from behind
by a chair to the ribs! Opponent takes over on Level 2
Offense. Add 1 to your pin rating.

5-6 You try a triple jump moonsault to get the belt, but
the opponent catches you in mid air with a springboard
spin kick into the ribs. Add 1 to pin rating. Roll on
Level 3 Defense

7-8 As you ascend the cables, the opponent recovers and
hangs you upside down by the lower part of the X before
blasting you with a vicious chair shot to the head!
Add 2 to pin rating. Roll on Level 3 Defense.

9-10 You try to go hand over hand on the cables to get
the belt, but hit a spectacular spear while your hanging
in the air. Awesome spot! Add 2 to your pin rating.
Opponent takes over on Level 3 Offense

11 In desperation you attempt to bring a ladder into the
ring and viciously drill your opponent in the head
helicopter style. Add 1 to opponents pin rating. The ref
removes the ladder from the ring. Re-roll on this chart!

12 You successfully go hand over hand across the cable and
grab the belt. You pull on it as hard as you can. Roll 1d6

Odd: It finally gave, and you fall to the mat with the belt
in your hand as the new champion.

Even: The belt is stuck and just won't give. The opponent
blasts you from behind, as you take a head first plunge to
the mat. Add 3 to pin rating. Opponent takes over on
level 3 offense.

Unsanctioned Challenge Match

This is a special challenge match. It has no official
bearing with regards to Titles or rankings, but is used
when two guys just want to go at it without official
consequences or waiting for sanctioned approval.

I use it to build angles, cause controversy or simply to
build interest in a future match between the two.

Unsanctioned Challenge Rules

1. There is no referee. The match begins after one wrestler
enters the ring and calls out the other wrestler on the mic.

2. Ignore all DQ, Pin and Submission scenarios.

3. The battle continues on for a total of 20 consecutive
moves. Assume officials from the back eventually charge
the ring and break things up.

4. At the conclusion there is no winner so to speak.
You can however determine the 'consensus' winner
through the following scoring system (Credit Stu Lowery)

1 point for each Dazed

2 points for each Hurt

3 points for each Down

# of Pin tokens added during the 20 moves

Vanity's Beauty Parlor Chart

I was looking through some old things and found a chart I used from 2088-89. It was a beauty parlour stage set-up for Vanity interview guests. Kind of like the old Flower Shop and Piper's Pit style sets I guess. Anyways, Vanity would ask a guest, hero or villain, and The Creeper served as his bodyguard/co-host. It made for some interesting moments at least. Thought I would post it ;D

VANITY'S BEAUTY PARLOUR
Vanity's very own interview segment in his favorite environment, the beauty salon. Vanity calls The Creeper his co-host even though it just drools and stares blinding into space.

HERO CHART (roll on this chart if your wrestler is a face)

ROLL	OUTCOME
2-3	SNEAK ATTACK BY ENEMY! Your enemy enters the parlour set and attacks you from behind. Vanity and The Creeper stand by and watch the brutal beating you receive; obviously it was a planned event! While you are down on the ground, Vanity gives your enemy the microphone who proceeds to badmouth you in front of the crowd. Your ally enters and Vanity and The Creeper sneak out the back, while your enemy trades blows and words with your ally. Your enemy retreats, but unfortunately the damage has been done. You are injured for 3 fight cards.
4-5	VANITY SLAPS YOU! Feeling like you are showing him up on his program, Vanity slaps you right across the face. Before you can retaliate, The Creeper hammers you from behind. Together, they pound you to the floor before fleeing at the site of your ally. You are injured for 2 fight cards.
6	A HEATED DISCUSSION. Vanity proceeds to ask you questions intended to push you over the edge. Yet, you are the bigger individual and manage to remain level-headed. The interview finishes without any physical confrontations.
7-8	YOU CHALLENGE VANITY TO A MATCH! Vanity gets under your skin from the moment you step into the parlour and you can't take it anymore. You get in Vanity's face and the two of you do some finger pointing and exchange fighting words. Before The Creeper can get involved your ally comes onto the set, balancing the scales. You openly challenge Vanity to put his money where is mouth is. A fight card should be set up as soon as possible!
9-10	A NEW HOST? Vanity oversteps his bounds with you once too often, so you punch him square in the jaw. When The Creeper attempts to come to aid his master, you smash their heads together. You then proceed to interview the unconscious, "former" hosts. Imagine the laughs! Vanity is injured 1 fight card.
11-12	TOTAL CHAOS IN BEAUTIFUL LAND! Halfway through the interview, your enemy comes into the parlour and a shouting match ensues. You and your enemy begin to trade blows, while Vanity and The Creeper hide underneath a counter. Before the dust settles, the beauty parlour is left in ruins. Vanity can be found crying underneath the rubble as The Creeper starts to eat something off the floor. Your feud with your enemy intensifies.

VILLAIN CHART (roll on this chart if your wrestler is heel)

ROLL	OUTCOME
2-5	A BENEFITIAL ARRANGEMENT. You call out your enemy who enters the parlour but is immediatlely attacked from behind by The Creeper. Vanity gives commentary to the action as you and The Creeper double-team your enemy. Your enemy's ally enters comes out and a wild brawl erupts before security comes in and breaks things up. Your enemy is injured for 2 fight cards.
6	VILLAIN VERSUS VILLAIN? You take offense to one of Vanity's comments. He immediately recoils and attempts to save himself. The interview finishes without any further altercations. Could animosity still exist between you and the "Beautiful One"?
7-10	A WONDERFUL CHAT SESSION. Vanity proves to be the perfect host and provides the boost you were hoping for in terms of gaining an edge in the word war with your enemies. Together you bad mouth any and all you are currently feuding with!
11-12	BACKFIRED PLAN! With Vanity's willing help, you totally humiliate your enemy. Yet, your enemy isn't one to take it and he comes to the parlour and challenges you. Words turn to shoves and shoves turn to blows. Vanity simply stands back and watches. A fight card should be scheduled between you and your enemy.

*The match can only end by SUBMISSION OR SURRENDER
__________________________________________________

SUBMISSION OR SURRENDER

--ONLY Finisher rolls on offense, PIN instructions on defense, and results on the 'War Games' and 'War Games Double Team' chart can cause a surrender, and only if:

a. The Match Beyond is underway

b. the afflicted wrestler has as many Fatigue Tokens on him as equal to his THRESHOLD

--On the 'Into the Ropes', 'Into the Turnbuckle', 'Pin Save', and 'Wrestler Interference' charts that tell you to ROLL YOUR PIN, do not result in a SURRENDER ROLL, no matter what. Simply Add 1 to the person who should have rolled his PIN, and his most recent opponent rolls on Level 3 Offense

--Also, ONLY the War Games specific charts allow you to attack any opponent with that same instruction. All the other charts in play MUST be rolled against the most recent opponent

--You may not switch attackers off of a chart instruction. For example, if a chart tells you to ROLL ON LEVEL 3 OFFENSE, you must roll on Lvl 3 Off with this wrestler and ONLY this wrestler. Designated attackers must be chosen AFTER a successful offensive roll and BEFORE the next (this applies to switching defenders during offense, unless off of a chart roll)

--If the Match Beyond is underway, and a wrestler is has not yet reached his THRESHOLD, anything that would result in a SURRENDER ROLL is simply an Add 1 situation. A wrestler does not roll for Surrender until his number of Fatigue tokens matches his THRESHOLD

-Before the match begins, look at each wrestler’s CAGE and BASIC PIN RATING

-Add these together and subtract the resulting number from 12

-This final number is the wrestler’s THRESHOLD

-The THRESHOLD number is the amount of Fatigue Tokens that must be placed on a wrestler before he is eligible to SURRENDER

-PIN instructions, Finisher Rolls, and certain chart instructions can all result in having to ROLL FOR SURRENDER, but only AFTER The Match Beyond has begun

-To ROLL YOUR SURRENDER, take your cage rating and the amount of Fatigue Tokens that you have acquired PAST your THRESHOLD and add them together for your SURRENDER number

-Anytime and everytime you are about to ROLL YOUR SURRENDER, roll on the ‘Pin Save’ chart first, following the instructions as rolled. There is no limit to how many possible Surrenders the ‘Pin Save’ chart may be rolled on beforehand.

-Your SURRENDER number now functions like any other PIN (ex. Roll 2 dice, if the result is lower, surrender occurs, if the result is higher, no surrender and the opponent roll on level 3 offense and add 1; add finisher ratings when applicable)

-Remember, a SURRENDER can only occur AFTER The Match Beyond has begun

DOUBLE-TEAM CHART

A wrestler may choose to roll on this chart anytime he rolls a Choice chart instruction on his playing card or if he rolls on an instruction on his playing card followed by (tag), but cannot perform that instruction due to the lack of a partner or for another reason. After he has chosen to roll on this chart, the wrestler must choose on of his teammates inside the cage to temporarily act as his Partner. If there are no teammates within the cage that wrestler can or wishes to select, then he does not roll on this chart and uses the instructed maneuver on his playing card instead. Unless specified otherwise, any subsequent rolls due to the effects of a result on this chart may be rolled against any member of the opposing team. There is no limit to the amount of times a particular team is allowed to roll on this chart.

2: Your partner produces a hidden weapon and hands it to you, taking hold of the woozy opponent and urging you to blast him with it! You wind-up and swing as hard as you can, but the opponent slips away from your partner and you nail your own partner instead!

ADD 2 TO YOUR PARTNER (PARTNER ROLLS SURRENDER) AND OPPONENT ROLLS ON LEVEL 3 OFFENSE AGAINST YOUR PARTNER.

3: You and your partner both grab hold of the opponent and attempt to drive him into the steel! But, your opponent suddenly puts on the brakes and slips away from both of you, using your momentum against you and allowing him to rocket both you and your partner into the cage instead!

12: Your partner locks the opponent in a torturous submission maneuver! The opponent is left wide open, and you take the opportunity to attack, dropping knees and fists onto the head and torso of the opponent, and then grinding his face into the canvas!
ADD 1 TO THE OPPONENT (OPPONENT ROLLS SURRENDER) AND ROLL ON LEVEL 3 OFFENSE OR ON THIS CHART AGAIN

*IF THE MATCH BEYOND IS UNDERWAY, THE UNDERLINED AND PARANTHESED INSTRUCTIONS ARE USED IN ADDITION TO THE NORMAL INSTRUCTIONS

War Games The Match Beyond

MATCH BEYOND RULES AND CHART:

This match is commonly known as "The WarGames", and was a WCW special event match held on several occasions. I loved watching the matches on TV, so I invented some rules to help bring it into the GWF. Of course, I couldn't very well call it The WarGames, now could I? The
rules are as follows:

***Cosmic Cage Rules Apply. Teams of 3 to 5 compete against one
another.

***To start off the match, a representative from each team enters
the cage. The two wrestlers fight for a total of 25 offensive moves.
No pinfalls or submissions count. All finishers add 1 to pin.

***After the initial 25 moves, a coin flip is held. The team who
wins the coin flip sends in a representative for a 2 on 1 advantage.
After another 15 offensive moves, the other team sends in a
representatiive. The coin flip is then repeated after another
15 moves, and the process continues until every man from every
team has entered the cage.

***The first wrestler to be pinned after his or her PIN counter
has reached 13 or higher loses the match for his team. This can
only occur after all men have entered the ring. Finisher bonuses
are considered at the time the pin attempt is made.

*Thanks to Shazaam for the initial rules*

***Use this chart in place of out of the ring. Because of the
fatigue associated with this type of match, you use the modified
cage rating (initial cage rating+PIN tokens) to determine what
happens.

***Of course, there will be injuries. Each wrestler involved in
"The Match Beyond" must roll one die for injuries and add their
PIN tokens to determine the length of the injury. For example if
Star Warrior had 6 PIN tokens and rolled a 3, then he would be
injured for 9 cards.

Cage 1-3 Cage 4-7 Cage 8-12

3-5 3-4 3

The opponent comes at you with a charge but you pick him up and

10 8 6

Your opponent places you between the two rings and throws you into
the cage but at the last second you clutch the top rope stopping
the move. Then you send your opponent into the cage-ADD 1 to cage
rating.

violently whips you into the cage. your head bounces off of
the cage and slams into the turnbuckle.- ADD 2 to cage rating.

*When your fatigue reaches a 13 or higher, the next time you roll
an out of ring on your players card, you roll two dice. Your
wrestler is only saved by a roll of 12.

War Games Triple Threat Match

Credit Sheila

This match is designed to combine the War Games components of a
double ring, steel cage, multi wrestler team match, with-in the
context of three way competition. It's an effective way of massing a
large group of wrestlers together, in a match that is both fast
paced & unique unto itself. Although it is similar to War Games, you
will notice some sharp distinctions. This is done both due to both
my personal preferences & for the sake of efficient game-play.

I've used this match in the past with a maximum of 15 wrestlers
(three teams of five), but the only limitations are your own
imagination. By way of these rules, there is always enough action,
mixed with unpredictability, to make this one of my favorite "stand
alone" style events. I've decided to share it with my fellow CotG
players ;0)

Rules:

1. Visually, the match takes place in a double ring, steel cage.
Note that the Cage Ratings are used in lieu of pin ratings. Before
starting, designate each team either as Team 1, 2 & 3. The match
begins in triple threat style, with each team sending in a wrestler
to start the match.

2. Note that there are two distinct phases to this match:

i. War Games Phase: each team randomly sends a team member into the match until all members are accounted for.

ii. Elimination Phase: Once all teams are fully represented, the
match now assumes the role of a Triple Threat Tag Elimination match.
Once all the members of two complete teams are eliminated, the
surviving team members are the winners.

3. The Trion Triple Threat rules (as found in Ringside Companion
2112) are used throughout this match, with the
following "modifications":

a. ALL chart situations (into ropes, into turnbuckle, death jump &
out of ring) are AUTOMATICALLY rolled through the Trion Triple
Threat charts.

b.Additionally, the outcome results in an increase of "add one" to
the "attacked" wrestlers cage rating (as reflected in the Trion roll
outcome. An example attack would be: Wrestler 1 attacks Wrestler 3
by slamming him face first into the steel cage. Add one to Wrestler
3 cage rating) This rule remains in effect UNTIL one team has been
completely eliminated. At this point, with only two teams remaining,
the rules of a normal Kronos Strong Style tag match are then
utilized.

4. The "One Man Advantage" rule: After the initial 7 "successful"
offensive moves have passed, roll to see which team sends in the
next wrestler & gains the "one man advantage". Just roll TWO dice,
with the combined roll being the outcome. The highest score wins.

Note that with a "one man advantage", the following occurs:

a. The advantaged team AUTOMATICALLY takes over on offensive. Add
one to cage rating of the wrestler they chose to initially attack.
The content of the attack is up to your own imagination. They also
have the ability to "switch off" on who they are attacking at will.

b. The extra man stands in a corner of the ring, just as any partner
would in a tag match. There is never a point when more than one team
member can "legally" be in the ring.

c. The advantaged team has all the advantages of any normal tag
team. They can "tag chain wrestle", tag in & out, AND...

d. "Team mate Attacks From Behind" Option: If on defense, the extra
man can attempt to successfully attack an "out manned" team member,
WHILE they have the one man advantage:

Rolls of 8 or lower: the advantaged team has the inactive partner
successfully slam the offensive wrestler head first into the steel
cage, add one to offensive wrestlers cage rating. The advantaged
team on defense retakes control on level two offense. Note that this
attack can never be made against a wrestler on a team with the same
# of teammates in the match.

Rolls above 8: the out manned offensive wrestler meets the charging
attacker by slamming him head first into the steel cage. Add one to
the attackers cage rating. Resume offensive level.

5. After the next 7 "successful" moves elapse, the next highest
rolling team sends in a member. Although they now have a one man
advantage over the third team, that wrestler is NOT officially in
the match UNTIL he is tagged in. In other words, he enters the cage
& stands on the ring apron in the corner, but is NOT in the match
yet. Should he be tagged in, they now have all the rights (defensive
tag wrestling, tag chain wrestling, etc.) as a normal tag team. They
also have the advantage of attacking from behind a wrestler on the
team that is short a team mate, IF the short handed team should take
offense.

6. After the completion of seven additional moves, the third team
sends in their next man. He takes the ring apron & awaits to be
tagged into the match. At this point, the sides are all even, & the
match assumes the standard tag & Trion Triple Threat rules.

7. After the next seven successful moves have passed, re-roll once
again to determine which team will gain the crucial "one man
advantage." Use the same rules as outlined above. Repeat this cycle
until all the wrestlers involved in War Games are in the match.

8. Once all teams are fully represented, the "elimination phase"
begins. It is at this point that pin-falls & submissions may be
attempted. When a wrestler is either pinned or submits, he leaves
the match. The team who's member scores the pin starts the next fall
on level 2 offense against either the losing teams next member, or
the other team if the losing team is completely eliminated.

9. The match continues, under Trion Triple threat rules, until one
team is completely eliminated. After that point, the match assumes
standard tag elimination rules among the two remaining teams.

10. Once two teams have been completely eliminated, the survivors of
the remaining team are the winners!

War Zone Match

This is the single biggest match I hold anually, and marks
the #2 PPV for my fed each year.

The match requires a special, 3-level ring, built in a pyramid
shape (the top ring - Zone I - smallerthan the second ring
- Zone II - which is smaller than the bottom ring - Zone III.

All wrestlers start the match in Zone I, and a Battle Royal
ensues from there. When each wrestler is eliminated, he falls
into Zone II. When a wrestler is eliminated from Zone II, he
falls to Zone 3, and when he is eliminated from Zone III, he
is out.

There are 3 winners of the Main part of the event, Zone I winner,
Zone II winner and Zne III winner. I have Zone II and Zone III
wrestler (same night, so iron man rules apply, meaning all tokens
carry over) and that winner faces the Zone I winner to crown the
winner of the event.

The winner gets a number of kudos for this accomplishment.
First, he earns a Universal Title shot at the next PPV.
Second, he is automatically entered into the Year End Tourney,
which is my #1 PPV eachyear (iron man tourney). Third, His
name is forever inscribed on the trophy. This is a MAJOR
accomplishment in my fed.

I have only run this match twice, as it takes probably 5 hours
to complete. The First time I ran it was a few years back,
when I was in 2109, and Enigma won it (from Zone III) over
Pegasus (Zone I) and Mandrill (Zone II). Enigma went on to
lose his title shot, but he won the CW Belt the next night.

I than took a few years off from the game and restarted my fed
when I cam back in 2074. 2074 was just a set up season, with
no PPV except for the End of Year Tourney, so I did not hold
the WarZone. in 2076 (I skipped 2075) I ran the match again,
and Mangus won (again from Zone III) over Rafaki (Zone I)
and Omega (Zone II). Mangus had been struggling mightily
until this when he really stepped up and became a top level
heel just below Morpheus. It wasimportant for my fed as well,
as 3 of the top 4 wrestlers (Omega, Caelum, Cosmos vs Morpheus)
at the time were faces and a good, new heel was needed.

This makes the PPV defenses mean more, as there is a better
chance of a change.

Wheel of Humiliation

Before a grudge match, you can use this match to add a
humiliating stipulation to the encounter. I imagine that
there is a wheel that is spun with the stipulation being
chanced by fate.

The conditions are mandatory and are backed with fierce
enforcement through threat of termination. In other
words, the loser MUST fulfill his obligation.

Use 2D6

Wheel of Humiliation

2 Loser gets Tar & Feathered

3 Loser must wear a dress

4 Loser must be powdered & diapered

5 Loser has a yellow streak painted down his back

6 Loser must give up a prized possession

7 Loser must take a stink face

8 Loser must kiss the winners feet

9 Loser must be the winners servant for a day

10 Loser must receive 10 lashes

11 Loser must leave town for 2D6 cards

12 Loser must have his head shaved

Widowmaker Match

DESCRIPTION: Believe it or not, this match was created
by Mayhem to have a one-upsmanship in his feud with former
Gladiator Spike back in 2091, but now he uses it on anyone
feels likeusing it on. The wrestling ring is disassem-
bled except for the ringposts, turnbuckle and ropes,
which are placed at floor level. The "ring" is surrounded
by a 15 ft. high steel cage with 1/2" spikes welded on
the crossbars. Weapons are placed in the corners near
the top. The turnbuckle pads are replaced by ones filled
with very coarse gravel.

RULES:

1. OUT OF THE RING becomes INTO THE SPIKED CAGE. OPPONENT
ROLLS PIN (+1)

2. If (c) is rolled, you have the choice of either rolling
again or substituting HEAD INTO TURNBUCKLE-3

3. All offensive rolls are increased by one level.
(Level 1 becomes Level 2, Level 2 becomes Level 3,
Level 3 becomes PIN attempts with a rating of 0.)
There are no modifiers for defensive results.

4. Finisher rates are increased by 2. [Mayhem loves this
because his LEAP OF DOOM (+6) becomes LEAP OF DOOM (+8).

5. When (ch) is rolled, you have the choice of using the
Choice Situations Chart or climbing the cage and grabbing
a weapon. If you attempt to grab a weapon, roll both dice.
A roll of 7 or lower results in your opponent preventing you
from climbing the cage. A roll of 8 or higher results in a
successful climb and a grab of a weapon. Roll 1d4 to
determine what weapon was grabbed:

1. War Hammer (+2)
2. Cattle Prod (+1)
3. Morning Star (+1)
4. Cat-O-Nine-Tails (+2

6. If you have a weapon and roll (c) or (ch) substitute
HIT OPPONENT WITH WEAPON. OPPONENT ADDS (+1) OR (+2) TO
HIS WIDOWMAKER RATING AND ROLLS ON LEVEL 3 DEFENSE.

7. Use CAGE ratings for WIDOWMAKER ratings. All Gladiators,
including Mayhem and Wolf, have a WIDOWMAKER rating
of 1. Each time you are pinned, add 1 to your WIDOWMAKER
rating. If your WIDOWMAKER rating reaches 12 or higher,
you can no longer continue the match, and your opponent wins.

8. Losing wrestlers are automatically injured. Roll 1d6 x 5
to determine length.

Wraith of the Gods Match

Here's a match I'm debuting on my next card, I figured you guys
would like to see it, it SEEMS fun(haven't tested it yet) kinda
sorta got the idea from CMLL's Blue Demon memorial tournament's
wacky rules.

I'm currently running Wargames 2091 and that year, the Supreme Gods
are feuding with the Galactic Rebels. The Rebels relentlessly
attacked the Ani Men after a TV title match between Comrade Terror
and Iron Mane, and the Gods made the save, setting up the match,
which the Gods call the punishment of the Galactic Rebels.

The matches are between two teams, elimination style, BUT-
Use Hydra Lumberjack Rules

Two wrestlers fight in the ring. They don't tag out. They fight
until a wrestler is pinned, and the next partner enters.

Wrestlers on the winning team can switch with a partner between
falls if they want. All fatigue carries over between matches.
This keeps going until one team doesn't have anyone left.

Here are the modifications to the Lumberjack chart-

Ignore both of the Double DQ options. Re-roll if you get those. If
a team doesn't have anyone on the outside, ignore that part. If
both teams don't, then roll on the regular out of the ring chart.

Also, managers are barred from ringside. There's already too many
freakin people out there!

Wrestler of the Year Formula

Credit Kaz

I just wanted to share another formula, this
one is for year end rankings/ratings. This is
pretty involving and took me in the
neighborhood of a 1 1/2 to 2 hours to do,
unless you have all of this on a spreadsheet
somewhere.

What I did was subtract the years wins from the years losses,
excluding all losses by disqualification.

Then I went back and checked out title wins.
2 points for Heavyweight
1 point for a secondary title.
0.5 or 1/2 a point for tag title victory
0.5 pt for a battle royal win

Add these points to an individual wrestlers' win/loss subtraction
number.

Then I went back and added:

1 point for each heavyweight title defense
0.5 point for each secondary title defense
0.5 point for each tag title defense

This gave me my magic number.

Incredibly, Amazing Mann came out on top for the year without
ever winning the Heavyweight title. He scored a 21.5 while
runner up Disaster scored a 19.5

I found this to be an interesting tool if for nothing else to
see who's really top dog for the year in your fed.

It also works with tag teams

On two sides of the ring, there are 8 tables (4 on each side). standing upright, soaked with gasoline and set on fire! Then, on the other two sides of the ring are 15 rows of coiled barbed-wire rigged with small explosives and on the last side of the ring is a GIANT bed of razors. Use Titan Death Match rules.
