I had all in 48~ 80~ and one drop to 6 and one pop to 8... the rest stayed at 7

You have only one player in mediocre (=5) game shape, so, if you're talking about this week, that can't be true.

...and that player played 0 minutes last week.

Sorry, my bad I meant from 7 to 6. The one with mediocre GS wasnt in my team last week thats why he didnt play at all.

Doesn't matter... the game shape reset, so you're taking the average of one week.

Are you sure about that? First training update after GS reset the GS calculation does not consider minutes from week before current although it's said in the manual:

changes are gradual, and will build up over a few weeks' time

. I have asked this several times and haven't received any answer but for me it's pretty important- do I need to play my stars last week of ending season for better GS at the start of next season or not?
In my team I had perfect minutes around 60 for most players but 5 starters stayed anyway at 7. I guess I was just expecting little bit too much like BB-Patrick said?

I interpreted the game manual as saying that game shape, in the case of someone with mediocre or less, is not going to jump to proficient just because they played 60 mins the last week, but will gradually build to average, respectable, strong, then proficient over a several weeks time (and on occassion skip a level or not go up a level with good minutes).

It would be nice to receive some official clarification, definitely, and I think this is something that the highers-up should be able to tell us since it doesn't give any insight into the game engine itself.

However, I'm fairly certain that the last week before the reset doesn't factor into training minutes. It wouldn't be fair to call it a reset if everything wasn't reset, and with some teams having two games and others three in the week before the reset.

I had three games in that last week (finals 2 and 3, and a scrimmage), and I played one of my players 135 minutes in those three games. He played 57 minutes this past week and popped to strong.

As BBs yet explained in the past posts,there are no difference between a training in the first and in the other weeks of the season;I could say you that's true,because we see randomic movements of the game shape also in the other weeks ;D

But what needs some kind of explanation is an other fact.After the first week,we see the shape that continue to be heavily affected from what could be the randomic movement of the start of the season,while towards the middle and the end of the season the randomic movements of the shape,linked to the minutes played in a week,offset themselves during all the season.At this point,what I would know,and I asked in a previous post,is if in the first week(s) the movement of the shape is purely randomic,or if in the season there are periodic trends of the shape,and the increased numbers of the strange things we see could be explained as a moment of "downward" or "upward" shape that happens for a certain player in that period(all of this surely together with the range of minutes played in a week,that will amplify or diminuish the "upward-downward shape trend")

anyone can give better answeR?
