ahhh. Of course. Not sure why that didnt cross my mind.
Nevertheless, we know the minute distribution is all screwed. :-(

No it wasn't the distribution's fault >.> I thought my scrimmage was the night of my day so I'd set it up a few hours ahead of time, but because of time zone differences it was actually the morning of my day and I missed the set up deadline. As a result, my starters got a lot of extra minutes, and the subs didn't get enough :(

Quick question.

In the Training Site, how do I read these two lines from the Partial skill level log:

Driving
2013-05-10: Pressure PG (48 mins), +0.23 (of 0.23), total=1.62

Handling
2013-05-10: Pressure PG (48 mins), +0.19 (of 0.19), total=0.19

So here's the breakdown of what it's giving you:

[Skill where training has occurred]
[date of training]: [training regimen] ([minutes of training received that week]), [full week equivalent training received] (full week equivalent with 48+ minutes of training], total=[full week equivalents since last pop]

A full week equivalent is what you would get with training 48+ at the regimen that specifically trains that skill. So, the 0.19 handling you get when you give a player 48+ and train Pressure PG means that you get they received 19% of what they would have gotten if you had given them 48+ and trained Ball Handling PG.

Hence a full week of Pressure PG training got you 1 "week" of Outside Defense training as well as 0.19 "weeks" of Handling training and 0.23 "weeks" of Driving training.

Thanks for that,

So should I have had a POP at the 1.0 mark? Or will it register next time I train 1on1?

Because this player has not seen a pop in Driving since I have had him.

You're welcome!

The answer is no, you don't necessarily get a pop when it gets to 1. Getting to 1 means your player has had a full week's worth of training focused on that skill. Most often skills take at least two weeks to pop (depending on age/elastic effect/etc...)

I do apologize. It's a little confusing because people also talk about skills in terms of "level + sublevel." (The Training Simulator does this, for example.) But the BB-Training Site talks about skills in terms of "level + wks of training" because that is more concrete, and sublevels are always an estimate based on weeks of training past the last pop.
