yer basically someone from that league needs to scout or do some kind of draft-point spending to reveal to the box scores.

Obviously the more box scores i get, AND then subsequently, the more player stats i get, the more data i have at the end of the day.

But even if you only spend 1 point on the draft, AND i can guarantee that that player matches a player in the draft, then the data is good.

I meant that someone sitting on 200+ scouting points could have used 48 of them to help out the project. I wasted a few extra ones so that I had scouted every single player in the ABBL draft.

about time you trained a 21 NT player ;)

There are a couple of ok draftees in the ABBL draft this season, low potential but good starting skills, but also some of the best were the 19 year olds. We shall see who I get.

HOLD THE PHONE

*********BREAKING NEWS BREAKING NEWS***********

No seriously, this is ground breaking stuff. And the draft lists are removed so I can reveal this with safety.

Ive checked it all thrice now, (thrice?... hmmm)..... and im not wrong.

So ive managed to collect box score data from several sources, some of which are from the same league. ie: two users from same league give me data

guess... effin.... what?!?!?!

Player X - you know that 7'4" 5 star A+ grade 5-potential player that you scouted and Interviewed? So, two bits of news. Yes im afraid someone else scouted them. but the other piece of news?

His box score's are different.

Yep - you heard me. The box score that is given to Player X is different across users.

WHAT
THE
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDGE

ok ok calm down, its alright. Deep breaths. in out in out.

So - for the moment, please continue to collect user data. From what I can tell, the box scores are SIMILAR, but definately not THE SAME. So this study is still valid I believe.

I think BB have implimented this deliberately, to help prevent collusion between players. (ie: Box score allows players to be identified easily). So if the box scores where the same, then people would be able to spend less points in order to get and collude data with other users. Kinda clever really.
Does it suggest that its more likely the box scores are randomly generated? Not sure.

It means ill have 2 box scores to use for some of the players, which is fine, it will give me extra data. which is nice.

but how's about that!!!!!!!!!

PS: First person who says 'Oh I already knew that' - I will be hunting you down and sticking a fork up ur pee pee.

i knew that..... youd find something worthwhile ;)
