Maybe I'm misinformed, but I thought I read somewhere that the skills we see, for example: prominent=10. You can take it as a 10 exact for calculation purposes, but I thought we only see the skill pops, and the skill is rounded for the public. Even though you have a 9.5 for example, you see a 10 on your screen. I'm just guessing here, but doesn't that somehow influence your calculations a little bit? Or are you just setting the threshhold on 10 instead of 9.5?

I think a 9.5 is still proficient. You only break in to prominent when you get to 10. Enthusiasm and (probably) game shape on the other is rounded off.

Well, you don´t know the exact rating of your potential either. So the margin of error or "fantasy" is still there nevertheless.

I think Josef does not consider the decimals in the formula,but if you know that the player has some training you can adjust it by your self( a player that have respectable in a skill should count as 7,but if he has a pair of training in that skill you can count as 7.6 for example )

In potential? Or the sub of his skills?

You can of course try to apply a 10.6 instead of a 10 for a skill, but the sub of his potential remains an intangible.

I mean in the sub of the skill. As far as I know is impossible to predict the sub of the potential until is too late...

If I apply Josef Ka´s potential formulas including sublevels (i.e: 9.5 instead of 9 ) , I would be closer to the real cap number of that player (whatever it is) than if I just put the entire number (no decimals). Is that right?

but you should consider that the formula is made with average values, so when you have low respectable is should be more like 6,5 then 7.

Now I´m confused... I don´t underestand what you mean. Why a low respectable sould be closer than 6.5 than to 7? even considering that the formula is made with average values I don´t get it. Could you explain it a little bit more?

I have players close to their cap and I´m trying to make a non intensive trainiing to make them last a little bit longer, that´s why I want to be really precise stimating where they are (18,56 or 18, 67, etc...)

No,because respectable is among 7 and 7.9
The formula is made with average value,but when a player reach respectable level,his skill is always superior to 7,at max you could consider a value more like 7.5 than 7
