I know for myself, I enjoy entrances(and I'm sure others do as well). I also realize that its a bit more work for the simmers. Thus, I am proposing this idea: PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT I AM NOT ON STAFF(shocker) AND THAT THIS IS A SUGGESTION ONLY A BASE FOUNDATION FOR ADDING ENTRANCES BACK INTO THE EVENTS! If you can create the caw yourself: You're allowed 1 update per week. This way it won't tie down the simmers for redownloading the caw. If you can't create the caw yourself: You're allowed 1 update per MONTH. If you havent' been a simmer then you can't possibly understand what it's like for simmers to dedicate their time into getting the card up. Having to take 30-1hour getting your update done every week would put them behind. Like me for example, Myke created Cabal(with some suggestions on me ). He also has 3 attires and tat's coming(attire 1 was shown in the tag match). I don't plan on doing anymore updates with Cabal for a good while(or at least until I obtain the game myself). so post your thoughts/suggestions/recommendations and let's get this back into the events!

A lot of it is to do with re-downloading CAWs/getting CAW updates like you said, and micro-managing the 50 caw slots which is nowhere near enough. Right now I am working with 3 sets of save data:
1. IW/VP actives-only savedata. This changes as different character's activity rise and fall. At one point I had Benson Dane and Christian Goodchild downloaded with their entrance themes set ready for crossover storylines, but now they both occupy a spot on the...
2. IW/VP inactives savedata. This is a CAW dump where I shuttle people off to just in case I need them later and THQ/2K have done a CC server clean up.
One I have the IW/VP actives-only savedata up-to-date in terms of characters, areas, titlebelts etc. I plan to talk to Myke/Mr Silva about entrances. I think perhaps only title matches will get entrances; or PPV matches only, but at least either one of those will be better than how it is currently.

This is why I was thinking of limiting the amount of updates that are submitted. If the amount of updates are low enough, then it won't take that much time to edit in the entrances. Heck, you could even pre-record the entrances and then edit them just before the matches.

Don't care about the entrances. If I had to nit-pick, I'd say I'd like separate vids for the matches, mostly because I lack so much time that scrubbing a match for mine doesn't really happen. I think I've seen maybe 3 matches since we changed the coding, with the last one having been the Opportunity Knocks 3-way.

Works to an extent, but you still have to record them when they have titles, also they would not matchup to the arenas having a pre-recorded intro from another arena coming out to the arena being used at that moment is an issue too.

Too bad it sucks trying to put music on 360 to use as in game music. Ps3 wins in that regard.

Yea, you have a point there.
