It isn't possible to negotiate additional networks to carry an alrerady existing show once u have the max number of shows?

Also I thought the limit was 3 shows, and I am currently running 4.

Networks will assume you are trying to negotiate for a new show. If you are currently holding too many shows (by the AI logic) then you will not be able to expand your current shows. From past experience TEW won't allow you to negotiate for more than 3 shows so if you already have more than that then you won't be able to improve any of the shows you currently have.

This if for a number of reasons. Most importantly tho, it's because TEW doesn't deal with "B" shows and all shows are treated as being main shows like RAW and Smackdown. Since the game uses that logic, and since WWF/E has always treated Velocity/Heat/Metal/etc as being worthless then those shows don't really exist within the game, at least from a technical standpoint.

okay, thank you very much. I think I ended up with 4 because i negotiated for the 3rd and 4th at the same time. I was just curious about that.

Well, instead of starting a new thread, I figured I would ask here.

I don't want to start a new show, so, how can I get an exsisting show to be shown on another network? Every time I try, I get "Network A are a competitor of Network B, who already have a contract blah blah blah."

How can I change that to get 1 show to be broadcast on two networks?

Basically, what are competative networks?

Never mind. I figured out what I was doing wrong

Just so that anyone will also know the answer, a competitive network is any network that shows in the same area (Tri-State, Scotland, whichever) as the other. So no overlapping coverage for one show altho you can obviously have the same area being covered by different shows (RAW and SD! on different networks that cover the same area, for example.)
