I find I play for like a month and then get bored.. not that I don't enjoy the game it's just I find it gets stale after a while... Any ideas on how I can breathe life into my federation?

I run many fed's...I usually have a couple main storylines and the rest of the time I just do "Ranking" cards once a month. I guess if you think your doing to much, turn it down a notch until you get rid of the burn out factor.

It could be that.. I'm trying to run 16 cards a game month.. I should probably cut it down to 4?

That could help. It moves you quicker to the next year(new wrestlers), but it also gives you time to run the current year. I run 52 cards in a year.

I get like this too, hardcore playing for a month or two than I get burnt . Do you find that after a couple of months off , coming back is hard even if your pumped for it. Like, you take a look at where you were and thik "Shoot ,i feel like starting somewhere else with this" ? This was a Problem for me for a long time but I came up with a solution of sorts. It be kinda long to get in to here , but if you ran into that problem Id love to share.Also,use the fed forum for ideas. Find a promoter that you dig and beg borrow or steal from them if need be. It could just kick start something .

Yeah, I have the same problem from time to time...I try switching feds from either GWF, GWF Legends (2087),aCe...but sometimes the creativity just isn't there and I feel like I am going through the motions...try putting it down and reading something for awhile...always get my creativeness going and WHAM! Idea around 2 in the morning...

You have to *love* it to play it. I go through phases too. Like right now - I have played a couple of cards in the GFITG but haven't posted as I am dead in the middle of Football Fever! This happens every year to me. But as far as losing interest in the game - no way!!!!!!!!

Whenever you get an idea for your fed, write it down. I'm a busy guy so I can't play that much, so whenever I see something on an old wrestling clip, a movie, or someone else's fed, I have a Word doc of cool ideas to use whenever I get around to it. Also, check out the fed histories on Kayfabe Memories. I got a lot of cool storyline ideas from some old feds that I never got to watch as a kid. www.kayfabememories.com/Regions/index.htm

when things get stale....throw in a swerve. thats what i do. remember , you can do what ever you like ....so you shouldnt get bored. If the the feuds are getting boring...create your own. match up two guys you think would create a lot of heat. i've brought in bootlegs ( of actual promoters ). Makes thing real interesting. just a thought. ;D

Try comming up with new storylines and feuds to keep your interest.I find my self sometimes getting the same way but I try to mix things up a little.In my GWF and LWF.In my GWF I had a fed exile match between Galatic Punisher and Bishop Hell and Hell beat Punisher for 10 fight cards and on the verry next card a masked man showed up calling himself MR.G.P. and Bishop Hell has enlisted the help of Mad Jester to try to prove that GP is Galatic Punisher and if thay can then they will try to have him suspended form the GWF. On the last card Bishop Hell beat MR.G.P. and took the mask off only to find Renegade and he Hellfired him twice in the face and said Galatic was the man to Blame for his actions.This is the only time I strayed form Tom's story lines .If I were you I would try out my own storylines or mix things up.

I mix things up. I once lost intrest but thought of cool ways to do different kinds of behind the scenes tournaments that only I could see the brackets and my offical record books, and websites, dont show. It really kept me into it... BTW, what until I do my 2122 updates! IVE GOT A HUGE SHOCKER!!!!
