I run a rather unique fed with guys like Chaos, Star Warrior & Thantos active and wrestling. The following questions are making me hesitate to purchase CotGOnline at this time:
1. If I input information for wrestlers like Star Warrior before they are released into CotGOnline..what impact will their later subsequent release have upon my fed?
2. Will the information that I input for them now be able to be transferred to their cards once they are released in some fasion so that their history in my fed can be connected? Or will I have to reinput everything when the cards are later released?
3. Has a monthly/yearly subscription fee been determined at this point? If so, what will it be?
I have more questions but this will hopefully settle the ones impairing me from making the purchase.
Thank you in advance.

1. If I input information for wrestlers like Star Warrior before they are released into CotGOnline..what impact will their later subsequent release have upon my fed? When we finally get around to them, it won't affect the data that you've entered in any way. Your "Thantos" will be treated as a completely independent entity from the official Thantos when he finally makes his evil presence felt in COTGonline. 2. Will the information that I input for them now be able to be transferred to their cards once they are released in some fasion so that their history in my fed can be connected? Or will I have to reinput everything when the cards are later released? Transferring all of the data over to the official guys when they come out isn't an option I'm planning on exploring at this time. It would involve the kind of enormous, hard core data changes to a production database that I like to avoid wherever possible. So, you're left with the choice of reinputting your data or not. You don't have to reinput all of your data, of course, but if you're anal like me, you'll want to. Fortunately, my special brand of OCD is not shared by many. By not reinputting your data with the official guys when they come around, here are going to be the big differences you'll see: 1.) No simulating matches with your user created guys. 2.) Your guys won't have a power ranking in the database. This means that when ranking them, none of the ranking personalities will take their natural ability into account. In a fed of all "bootlegs," this isn't too big of a deal, though; they'll still get ranked using the rest of the formula, Thantos just won't get any preferential treatment over Mutant for not stinking. 3.) You'll miss some little graphical enhancements in the database, like seeing the wrestler's picture in appropriate spots while looking at results. 4.) No cross-referencing between wrestler personas. So if you ever decide that Star Warrior wants to run a stint as Avenging Warrior, they're going to be treated as two separate wrestlers with two separate match histories. With the official guys, there'd still just be one long match history for the Son of Omega. You could change Star Warrior's name to sort of approximate this, but that would retroactively change every Star Warrior match to be an Avenging Warrior match. 3. Has a monthly/yearly subscription fee been determined at this point? If so, what will it be? I'll defer to Osk or TM on this one. I just make things work.

Osk and I are finalizing the fee structure and Kris should be making an announcement shortly. There will be options to subscribe to Stat Tracker and the Game Table separately and as a discounted bundle together. There will also be 6 month and 12 month options (with 12 month most likely at a discount to 6 month on a per month basis).
More details soon...
