Subject: Questions & Answers

while i agree with the first part of your analysis about starting from 80-80-30 and adding 20-0-20 is better than 0-0-50 or 50-0-0 i dont agree with the next assumption though it is probably correct.

"Then, at some point between 50 and 80, adding strength to the third atribute becomes non-optimal. You would rather add some strength to the first atribute."

You have assumed that the optimal point is above 50. It is very possible based solely on the guide that the optimal point could be below 50 but closer to it that to 30.

Additionally we are all assuming that the optimal points are all based on linear functions which is unfounded.

Yes indeed, the assumption is probably but not necessarily correct. Put in other words, it´s not impossible to have

119-80-31 > 100-80-50

according to the guide.

This would require a really exotic (but it could still be injective) function.

My two euro cents on the topic

Good write up - solidifies my decisions - I build a players "specialty" based on their q's.

fyi... i'm fully addicted to your blog!

How the hell do you react to this...

The game goes through OT to a shootout... where only ONE shooter from each team shoots????

In a shootout you are supposed to have 3 shooters, that's why i took the time to set them up on the bloody line setup

What a load of BS that is! Very very p*ssed off right now!

My friend, altough I agree with you, it has been like that since I first entered PPM, some 6 months ago. So I guess it´s really important for us to set very carefully our penalty shooters.

Now that´s a nice article!

But I must say I disagee with the maths for beta and gamma.

I know figured out why I disagree with certain folks here! LOL Your a group of economist! ROFL I/m an accounting guy! hehehe We just don't mix well! LOL

Have a great week.

@ eagles.

Loved the blog as well. But wouldn't put to much into the Latvian goalie thing. 1/2 season, tactics, importance, defensive build, ect., ect, ect. Though that said It's very clear a large number of successful managers use 2:1:1. Or could it be some are 1 atty junk sellers that gained thier advantage in the game through a practice I personally dislike. Though certainly allowed.

Again maybe 2:1:1 is the BEST build. I'm giving it a few more seasons to evolve. Building a few 2:1:1 guys to use next season. Never had any luck with the build but I'll give it another try. Can't hurt. If thier ineffective it's an easy fix.

Curious question!

What is the distribution of your players handedness?

Mine is 18L 17R 13U

21L 25R 11U

You are well endowed on universal huh?

Haha thanks. I counted goalies in there too.

19L 13R and 3U (two of which are goalies).

While we're on the topic:
What are your CL distributions?
6/6= 19
5/6= 23
4/6= 5 (All my C's and A's are in here)
3/6= 1
