Not sure... my GM expert is out of town this week, so I'll check in with him when he's back.

As for the question up thread about salary dropping... it shouldn't really happen, since salary is chosen as the max of the salary calculated for each position. The problem is with the "salary-monster adjustment", since that's applied *after* the max() is taken. But the adjustment that i found for this season's data was very, very small (to the point where i should probably just exclude it), so while you can see a drop, it shouldn't be very substantial.

To the other question up thread, I'm getting close to a solution to putting all the analyses back online. The probably won't update in real-time, but that shouldn't matter too much since most of the data is pretty stable at this point. Work has gotten in the way of me making more progress on this, but hopefully it won't be too much longer.

Ok, I've managed to shift a lot of the processing off-site, so I've re-linked a bunch of the analysis pages. There's a possibility there's still too much being done on this server, though, so we'll have to monitor things for a little while before I commit that these are 'permanent'.

Btw, the trade-off for shifting processing off-site is that it means the analysis is being done based on a cache of the data. Which means that it won't update automatically to reflect each week's data. That shouldn't really be a huge issue, as the data is relatively stable at this point, but I don't want people frantically checking every Friday and getting worried when nothing changes. The process of updating the cached version is a bit involved, so I'm guessing I'll do it once or twice per season.

Speaking of the data being relatively stable, in building the cache today, I saw that we now have over 111,000 player-weeks of data (that is, >111,000 entries in which a player received at least 1 minute at a trained position). That's a HUGE amount of data, so kudos to everyone who's participated, and thanks!

As a reminder, there are 4 analysis pages available (a summary one, which shows the rate of training as a function of height, a table that shows everything for players within the age/height range you select, and decline-with-age plot which is VERY stable, and a trainer-level plot which somehow still sucks). There's also a blog post up on the elastic effect.

So enjoy, and if you haven't participated yet and want to see the data we've been collecting, check out the front page on the link in the first post of this thread for instructions on how to contribute!

uploads have failed all day for me. How is this with others? Last week everything went smooth.

Not a problem

Please reply only if you REALLY know the answer
When you look at analysis for JS for wingmen there is no data for IS, however:
When you check individual players partuial skill level logs it gives credit each time for IS
which is it, yes or no?
For what its worth, my last IS pop from one of my players came after a week of JS for WM,
Cross training pop? Been bugging me for awhile.

I'll double check with wozzvt on whether the skill level logs fully reflect the crowdsourced training data.

I believe he set the skill level logs before the data from the crowdsourcing project was firmed up. As such, I think he may have gone from the original Training Speed Analysis thread.

But the actual data are probably best to follow. In that case, IS isn't trained by JS wingmen, other than the very low rate that reflects cross-training pops.

Well, it would be good if it was fixed, it kind of throws off the totals
Other than that it's just a great place to go

I have been adding my training on my desktop for months now. No problems.

But I just bought a new laptop and I can't seem to make it work. I have installed everything correctly and am using Firefox.

When the "send to BB training' button it says, "Failed. Log in to BB training". But I am logged in..... It works on desktop just fine.....no idea what to try here on my laptop.....

Do you have any pop up blockers or whatnot installed on the laptop browser? Are the browsers identical on each?

And you tried the desktop today? There have been some on and off glitches on the offsite today.
