1.Build up your songwriting a bunch.For every ` time you train ability train songwriting twice, you build ability by touring. 2.Don't write songs until you have around 75-80 songwriting and around 90 ability.It's a waste of points to write crappy songs and not get much money. 3.Make yourself popular!Try getting at least 70 popularity in your home country/continent before make a single/album. 4.Save points!Try to save around 10 points every day, that way with updates you have more than spending them all. 5.If you write songs don't write them in bulk,they get worse with each song.Instead write 1,rest until creativity is up to 100,rest,write another,repeat. 6.Buy other countries when you can,this builds up your world popularity. That's all for now feel free to add your own advice,these are opinionated and worked for me but might not for you.However back in the old game I was pretty successful.

All sticky for ya. Aren't I nice?
Tip from me, everyone knows what I'm going to say - be a dirty multi-accounter. Save points on some, spend on others. When you're getting low on points on one, swap. I had something like 120,000 points combined on all mine when the game went down. |

How do you send your points to other bands You dont, what ya do is you make a ton of accounts then leave one to gather dust (dont forget pass & login). depending on how many points you want, go check up on the one you've left for ages and there should be loads of points for you to play with. however, try not to leave bands on their own if youve already worked on them because then they go down hill and then you have to do it again |

Try keeping your health high when you do things like train ability (Training or Touring) or songwriting. It builds up faster this way |
Mine: Grinning Serpent - Industrial/Industrial Metal (like NIN / Rammstein) |

Hmm. You'll perform better with higher h/h/c, but I think that just going for it without resting has its merits, in terms of point-saving. |

Um quick question, are you only allowed to have 10 songs on an album? Im trying to release mines and i have 12 songs but it won't show the other two. |
Do you like reading reviews on anime? Manga? Games? Do you wanna support a fellow black nerd? Then click above.

The fact that we write entire albums all on our own while the biggest stars in the world have 45 co-writers on ONE track?? Where the hell are OUR record deals and GRAMMYS?" -BrownSugar |
