BuzzerBeater Forums

Thanks everyone for the comments, gives me something to think about. Probably as Perpete said mostly I'm just unlucky. I don't think this is a case of not managing minutes well as someone suggested.

I'm constantly monitoring minutes. Usually I have much better results than I'm getting and I usually don't get the minutes to land as well as they have so far this season. I guess we're only 2 weeks in though so I should give it time.

Here's the log of my players so far:

I don't feel to bad about where they've landed.

I like the idea from Lemonshine to track the players to get a better feel of how they're being impacted. I track a lot of things in this game so I'll just add this on to the list. Lemonshine, would be cool if you or someone (buzzer-manager) could turn your data into a tool.

Unfortunately in buzzer-manager you can only "easily" track the official GS and for players who are still playing for the same team.

That said I usually ignore the "official" number and use the formula whose coefficient were estimated by Josef Ka. This accounts for sublevels as sometimes you get a very good "respectable" or a very weak "strong" which are actually very similar (the DMI is similar without improvements in the player's skills). Unfortunately the formula uses old salary values so you also need to convert the player's skills into a salary using the old salary estimate. If I ever get the time, I'll simplify the calculation method and share it here (at the moment I have a macro running both the salary and the GS calculation).

Yes, looks much better. The one guy got 86 minutes because my other player got injured and he ended up playing the whole game from the backup spot. But other than that its all good now.
