Roster limits

are you guys happy with them or are you still wanting them increased? I was thinking when booking my long term storylines that without upping the limit it would be very hard to have a legit tag team division.

IF we were to change it what would you want it reasonably changed to.


Also if we do change it I say we agree we may have to drop it if more people show up and return.

I'm skeptical about upping the limit because I feel it will lead to a way of just hoarding talent even when you don't have ideas for them like the first iteration of FBL.

Also, you're one over the roster limit with Davey Boy Smith Jr. :P

Oh, right. Forgot about the trade and that he's on loan. My bad. But yeah while I like the idea of adding more tag teams, I'm just concerned about the hoarding aspect.

Valid points CJ and I do agree with that the hoarding part.

30 seems alright, though I wish the female talent number was a bit higher, like even have it at 7 instead of 5. Managers I'd like to see go up to 4 or 5 (I remember we spoke a while back about Rusev and Lana but my manager spots are filled up) since I feel that it could spark for a few more ideas with the right person in that spot.

I miss the idea of having a small development roster but I can live without it. Or if we did have it have one again have it be a small number like 5.


The concept of a flex spot is a good one, but what if it behaved something like it was a general overflow spot. For example you can have 7 slots but they can be for anything, like another authority figure, an extra manager or two, an extra female talent and two spots left over for guys that you would say want to use in a tag team but not singles. I'd toss Reck in there since I'm not much of a fan of his singles work (it's the gimmick) but they are great as a team (at least up in my neck of the woods anyway).

Another thought what if we had a legend slot? That would be somewhere where a retired name would be part of who over's company and do promotional stuff, shows up from time to time backstage, could serve as a road agent too and maybe get thrown in a match or two if they're able.

I kinda like your ideas Maxy. A Legends spot is useful for guys who don't deserve to take a full time spot but will be used to advance the occasional storyline. Also upping the flex from one to a few more isn't bad.

Another solution is to have a stack of "short term contracts" where you can sign a few guys for a limited run like a month, 3 months or something. This would be for if you came up with an idea for a cool storyline and you need a certain person or tag team and you don't want anybody else snagging them until the storyline is over and then you don't care anymore about them.

let's keep this discussion alive

That's a good idea as well (the short term thing). As you can tell if that were an active spot I'd have a couple of guys in there already and I actually turned down the thought of an angle or two because of spacing (not a big deal though).
