Two quick questions for you:

2. Do you include reserves/jobbers/etc.?

Two quick questions for you: 1. How many wrestlers do you keep on your active GWF roster? I run a multi event/genre driven game year with a number of different events marking specific periods of time with-in a season. The number of wrestlers it takes to execute an event equals those currently 'active full time'. For example with NB my 2119 Team Challenge Series has six three man teams with 18 wrestlers in total that are active 'full time' over the course of the 5 week event. That would be the structure I'd be working with-in when using those specific wrestlers over the course of that time frame (ie. no double booking, having a specific payout formula, knowing who they can/can't be programmed with near term, etc.). This helps me to keep a focus on the key points I want to hit each year while also building a detailed history for my Fed along the way. 2. Do you include reserves/jobbers/etc.? Absolutely. I'll book bonus matches involving others from the official 2119 roster that aren't involved in a specific event at the time. I'll also pull from stars of the past (especially when running venues associated with a particular theme or superstar) to spice up a show. This offers a lot of creative latitude which at times can be very rewarding. I put my system first as a guide to what I want to accomplish in a specific part of the year...but I think it's also important to allow yourself to be dynamic in terms of using other talent and exploring new approaches that can enhance things from the outside in. |

Currently I use the standard roster, adding a few people from GWFZ as necessary. Personally I think Tom is keepign the roster a bit small for my tastes (I would love another Sudden Death, but the fed can't support that right now)

My Gwf fed is big around 70 wrestlers. I am slowing trimming it down but I like having a balance of high/mid/low level wrestlers.
