If yall haven't already agreed on stats for the Record Label here's what I propose. Anyone have ideas for limitations for the artists?
Record Label:
-Name won't matter & Description Won't matter
-2013
-Any Style
-USA
-Start with 25m
-Starting with 30% in all locations WW (unrestricted releases too)
-Starting with only that main artist we choose to observe the progress of throughout the challenge, we can add a new artist later to the roster.

What will the settings be?
Do we keep it as the default real life mod, or would you like to edit certain things e.g. Sales, media, festivals, awards, skills etc. (not major things, we can adjust some skills on artists we think need changing, but not over the top)
Also, I was thinking, because we all have different types of computers and some might be slower, to make it fair on those who might suffer 6 years into the game when loading, every game year at the end or start of the year (up to you guys) you need to archive old records that are selling less than (insert appropriate number here)
???
Or just leave it as it is? |

Import Genre, Media and Venues from RL mod to Default file. It doesn't make sense importing award shows since they don't really improve sales.
Also, keep 30k as the archive number.
Everyone will create a label with the same name, popularity with the Any Genre option.
Create an artist and everyone must have the same stats. (screen shots as proof)

Artist: Create an artist (name, age, e.g)Stats must be the same no matter the genre.However, we should at least have an option to make one stat at least 95%
Locations/Economy: (Someone can do that or I think we have settings for it a few pages back  ) |

No. Unrestricted releases don't work for everyone, especially when using a US label. Turn it off.

Azealia Banks' new album debuts on the charts
XL Recordings has released Azealia Banks' third studio album That Static Channel, an ode to the 90s, an infusion of hardcore hip-hop with euphoric club anthems. Critically, it was well-received, with an MW-Score of 73; commercially, it has already achieved outstanding success domestically.
US: #1 with 1.86M copies sold, Azealia's biggest first week to date.
In Europe, it sold 158K copies in its first week, attaining a #2 position on the official chart.
However, Azealia did not obtain said success in the UK, where it flopped with 5.5K sold and a #23 position, despite heavy promotion. It was an improvement, however, over Business & Pleasure's sales in that region (a #51 peak).
Total: 2.04M WW

Right, the only probably I have with not having international releases, is that I feel like it's so easy to get a #1 in the USA.
Unless we play on a higher difficulty.

To make it easier on everyone, I'll import/change everything and upload it as a new file.
Instead of everyone having to change everything themselves.
Is that okay?
I'll probably do this tomorrow night/Saturday morning.
Before then, we need an official list of what's being imported/changed

I have a few questions if anyone could answer that would be <3
1) Does the Ai ever sign artists ? After a few years there's so many without labels it's weird
2) does theme actually matter ? If so how do I pick a good one ?
3) my artist single always flop first week in states but their albums sell 2m+ why is this?
4) Do Collobs help sale?
5) why do I never get invited to perform anywhere ?

I want to participate but I could only do it for 7 months because of the bug my game has.
Could creating a new database get rid of it?

I like it.
Do we make a special act to begin or do we begin without acts. I know it's not working for I always end up with the three acts they give me or do we build create a label via the editor (in this case you should make it with the money and everything and call it ATRL or "insert the name here")

NSYNC's debut (outside of Europe) album just debuted with 1.8M WW 
They're local though, 1.75M was sold in the US 
They were so close to a second week above 1M too. I guess No Strings Attached will have to do that.
Edit: OMG THEY CAN'T RECORD A NEW ALBUM AT ALL, a song is glitching and saying it's not released as a single when I released it twice.

Changes:
Import Themes (RL)
Import Music Video Themes (RL)
Import Media (RL)
Import Genre (RL)
Import Venues (RL)
Create a Label (ATRL) with set popularity for everyone, 50 everywhere?
That's it. Then everyone just has to create an artist and sign it. We should have a list for their qualities though to be the same, how about 75 for everything? and 25 for reputation WW?
EDIT: oh and we need to come up with the sales economy etc.
