Officially it's a metal club but for now it doesn't have any genre yet.
Anyone willing to play in during my grand opening??

Also, Justin Ramsay offered me a job as CEO at Plutonium Metal Records. Things are going on real fast.

Minty: How do we manage to raise genre and club rating??

To start with, congrats on the club and job. Justin's a great guy and a good businessman as well. That's a great opportunity for ya.

As for the club TDG are all scheduled out for through to NY Fest actually and then were off on Hydra Tour for a few months so we can't make the opening

For a club to determine it's genre people just have to play there and as long as the majority of the bands that play your club are metal it will become a metal club. The wattage and ratings will all raise when you've been established, so get your workers asap. The real key to a club is having a good CEO that's why Punks in the Hall is a revoultionary club and one of the top clubs in NY

It also really helps that we have so many TDG peeps that have been working there for a long time, employees coming and going will knock your club from revolutionary/perfect ever time.

As for invites yeah, check their upcoming shows and make sure they don't have a booking for that day or are in say Melbourne and you send them an invite for Montreal the next day... watch the Company Forum for metal bands looking for invites. Then send the band leader a 'we're not worthy' type message like "We'd just love to have you honor us by playing at our Club [Club Name] on [date and time of invite]. If you have a certain ticket price you'd prefer let me know. Hope to see you in Montreal!" and then in a week or so you can send them a follow up "I know bands get tons of invites every day but I just wanted to remind you that we've sent you an invite to play [Club] at [invite time] and hope you can still make it. If a different date is better let me know. I won't bother you with another message."

That how I book my competitions and for NY Fest I booked half the Top 10 in punk.

Forums Yeah their system is realllly trash

but I had to kind of get used to it as a Club CEO as people post open invites for bookings

Also, I like to pain at the devs about what their latest f'up is and how things SHOULD be run

But yeah it's a freakin nightmare.

Yup, getting working is a reaaaaal pain in the butt in Montreal. Yesterday I got 3 John Does but they're now gone...

If any TBLer you are still with rubbishy job wants to be paid 900$ as barman, tell me! It's the max I can.

How the Electric capacity goes up??

BTW: Nice work with the Banner Minty!!

If you're a bit idle, can you make one for "Keating Entertainement Group"

Update: There's now 16 show booked

But still no ticket sold for now....

I have a Punk Rock club in Montreal call "Le Metropolis".

By the way Holydogg, if you want to be major we can team but as i told you: You name me vice-mayor and we're working together to make that city a bilingual city French and English!

Note: I study irl in politics, might be fun to team with me... The name of our party could be: Le parti socio-culturel de Montréal and in english: Social-Cultural party of Montreal.

I like you named your place Metropolis, mine is called Medley (both are R.L. club in MTL) but I wonder if "foufounes électriques" (electric buns r.l. legend club too) wasn't better for a punk club??

Let's team up!!

There are only so many Does in each city and they can move daily (they are day workers) so you need to pay them well to get them to stick around. With so many new locales being opened up it's going to be tough for a while.

Electricity has to do with the city's infrastructure as for getting to the perfect 100,000 W but in general it also increases with your condition/rating numbers.

Also, there is one or two ticket updates a day so make sure you lower your prices for tickets as soon as you can so you don't miss out on any. Also, no tickets sell before 56 days. To save yourself money raise from 500->1000 when they reach 450+, 1000->2000 at 1900+.

You condition will fall from 'perfect' fairly quickly but wait until it falls to 'wonderful' to order repairs or you'll pay a fortune on unneeded repairs.

Stock only fancy meals, birthday cakes and heart shaped boxes of chocolates as those are the biggest sellers.

Got my latest song coming up in a bit. I keep on signing in every 30 minutes seeing if it's finished yet

No seeds but I'm using my 5* basic lyrics, 5* composing singalongs and splendid musical talents so it better be a good one!

Looks like it's coming at the right time as some of our older songs are dropping down into the red for popularity. I'll try and get another one out after this one I think

Post by **Minstrel** » Thu Jun 14, 2007 11:01 pm

Yeah, we will be fine once we get out ahead of it again and then I'll be able to help too. They don't take too terribly wrong to write up we just didn't think the "wear" on our songs would increase that fast so we're a bit down at the moment. I'd guess my Hydra we're fine.

My currrent plan is to contribute four songs, my first when I get to 3 stars in lyrics, then I'll switch to composing/melody side and do one when I get that to 3 stars, then I go back and get my lyrics to 5 and do one then composing to 5 and do one and see how the four look in comparison... not sure how long that who process will take but I'm aiming to provide our 'early on in the set' songs while I'm skilling up and you craft the hits

I remember when I started my character, I was in Toronto initially and the mayor has restricted one company's bank running in the down. The mayor was really determined to stop racketing.

Also, my bank CEO Justin Ramsay got the decence telling me how much interest will cost and put my loan on hold until I got a better paycheck (then he offered me my current CEO job where half my pay go back to the boss

)

April's got you covered...

But yeah, Justin Ramsey is a great guy... he's the mayor of New York. April is also buying his NY tat parlor from him and he gave her money to help place a higher bid so other people couldn't outbid her. And his are one of the few banks that are legit...
