I'm still waiting for an answer about faceoff distribution question in post I'm replying to.
of course it is improved. Why dont you post the thousands of other games where it is clear to see?
you need to chill out now. When there are 20,000 games a day, you cannot possibly expect that these kinds of games will not happen. In 20,000 games you can get all sorts of freaky results. We cant control every single game. We just set the conditions. I dont need to explain you why in 1 game you lost more faceoffs than you won. It happened and that means its possible. its not a bug, its just a freaky accident.
Playing very low importance or very high importance? Very high uses 15 times more energy, but what are the gains?
Look at this and tell your thoughts:

He's playing defensive, that likely is one reason why there isn't a major increase in shots.
But wouldn't you expect major decrease in number of my shots then?
Mrk1 is right here.
The Argentine team changed from very low to very high importance and the result was less shots made, more shots suffered, less face-offs won and much more face-offs lost..
I no it's just 1 example, but it makes no sense

taking just the shooting strength of teams is way too simplistic.
You would need to divide the pp goals and even strength goals, you would need to factor in goalie strength of opposing teams for those goals (including confidence), also the tactics and im sure there are others variables.
Also 9 games is not a large enough sample to draw conclusions from.

That's the key. The short sightedness of some is staggering. In poker you need to play tens of thousands of hands for the probabilities to even out. You can't focus on one hand where your AA loses to 34o. Basically there's no way to accurately look at stats this way on a micro level and comes up with causations or really even correlations. It's no diffrent in PPM. I'm sure if you had access to a tool to run thousands of simulations on PPM matches you'd find the answers you were looking for.
And I don't mean "you" cavaelen. I just responded to your post for your accuracy in saying 9 games is an insanely small sample size.

A non-game question, but is the chit-chat thread still in existence?
Vlady keeps telling us that this is a question thread, but as i see it, there are no other good general discussion areas to talk.
So this is a question and suggestion...
where can we chat about the game and if there is none, can a few new threads on the forum be created?

A: The chit chat thread is still there - people just dont use it for some reason. I personally would love for it to be used again
Weird, i can't find it. Guess i have to look back further.
The problem is most the discussion stems from the questions... which is why this thread is so "busy".
What PPM need is an actual support system, not a forum for their questions.
