I suppose I should end this on a positive note, so I'm going to point out that Forrest's HOOPSWORLD article using the BB sim did an incredible job on our first article, Hornets-Blazers last night. Feel free to send him a nice BB-mail for when he finally wakes up after putting in a late night of effort to get the article out followed by all of his help yesterday.

Yeah that one was incredible. I even got some questions whether the article was made before or after the game, since he was that close hehe.

when you say "originally" do you mean after the first run of training, or after the second? what did you do on friday morning? did you change your training on friday or not? and if so what did you turn it to?

checking our backup records it seems to me that you changed your training to type pressure (PG/SG) on friday morning and so when you selected keep it the same, you were keeping pressure. I can give you the option to change again.. but there is no bug... you just misunderstood what we meant by keep it the same. note that the text said that we werent positive what your training method was at the time it ran...

my guess as to pressure is based upon what it was 4 hours after we ran training the first time... which when we spot checked with some of the users who were complaining was clearly a bad guess of what training was 4 hours before.. because our users can't seem to help themselves but change training types on an hourly basis ;)

so let me know if you would like me to give you the box again so you can change your training to rebounding.

Hello from me, I would be very thankful if you or someone else from BB staff could explain to me what happened today with my team's training.
Here are the facts: I was training inside defense for P.F. and C. During the first training no pops for my team and only one stamina drop for my player ( let's call him player A ). After the training was repeated from you ( I think it was a magnificent idea, maybe the best you could have offered us ) I had again no pops, but player A had gotten back his stamina while another player ( player B ) has dropped one level in stamina.
Everything seemed fine so far. I must tell you that I hadn't changed my training type in the time between the training happened again, so I received ( at least that's what I thought ) the proper training for this week.
Today we had the option to choose between two offers. As i already told you I had not changed my type of training so I chose the offer: take training in inside defense. And then the most strange thing happened.
Both players A and B dropped one level in stamina!!!! How is this possible? Is it a bug? Is it normal?
Thank you very much. I hope to have a reply as soon as possible from you.

In my case it had a positive effect but here you can find an answer: (61865.104)

there is a small random factor in stamina.. so when you chose to rerun training.. even though it was the same training the stamina came out slightly different..


from last week to this week
player 3110763 went from 7.56 to 7.49
player 2667966 went from 4.52 to 4.48

i dont know what stamina was for these players after the second run of training.

i can imagine on the original run of training that 7.49 might have been a 7.50 and you would not see a drop in stamina.. but in reality is the difference is really really really small.

Yes, it was definitely a misunderstanding in that case. I wanted rebounding last week, pressure this week. Can I have the screen back?

Thanks.

ok you should have the screen back

Well Forrest did a great job, I think that you can use that button everytime this mess happen or use as a new suggestion for changing the training to stamina if I forget and mess training normally? :-)

Anyway Is good to see now how things happens there. I hope that your hardwork will have a good finantial feedback I think that training is on a good way now and doesn't have to be changed for very very long time, so you can focus on details like site speed and so. If I could do programming, I would work for you for free too, it is worth of it:). I wish you very great patience.

You are one of our oldest players (only 2310 are older)

And thanks for telling me how old I'm, heh
