Being in Div III, u need to invest at least $10K into scouting. However, u wil only see the result of ur scouting at the end of the season which is in 3 months time. Don't invest too much though unless u r sure u will get ur draft pick.

qcs i meant using browser bookmark haha xD cant be pro la as long as u guys still here haha =P

anyway van persie scouting occur when training happen..so in malaysia time b4 friday u can set wat u want to train n how many player u want to scout =D

lol.
I just wasted 40k for that.
I thought i can see something with the scouting.

aiya...

nvm la... luckly is 1st week only... 40k buy a exp.. hehe

The potential is it important?

Important if you plan to train the player. Otherwise it is of no use if you have no plans to train the player anyway.

If you want to train a player, u need to make sure the potential is at least Star

Can i still train them if they are starter/ 6th man potential only?
What is the outcome?

scout is for what actually?what they scout?

Hmm... starter and 6th man potential. Don't really remember but I think the limit for anything less than Star potential will be capped at $30K. Meaning once the salary reaches $30K the training will be very very slow. This is what they mean by soft cap.

How old is old. Well, from what I heard anything above 25 years old cannot be trained as the effectiveness of the training slows down already. In fact the effectiveness of training slows down as your player age towards 25 from 18 yo. Therefore, it is preferable that trainees be 18-19 yo, else their training will slow down before they reach their potential cap.

Added on June 10, 2009, 10:44 pmScout is to scout for potential young players during current season for next season. By allocating a certain amount of money, you are telling your scout to look for potential trainee.

Only at the end of the season you will see the result of your draft list (Every league will have 48 players on the draft list). Once you have the draft list, you can set the order of preference. As you enter the new season, you will then be able to pick your draftee depending on your position in your league. If you are the last place you will get first pick, if you are the number 1 place, you will get last pick.

But from my exp, for Div III or II, don't worry so much about getting last pick as you will most probably be able to get your first few preference as the other managers will either be just recently joined (not enough info to know which draftee is good) or they are inactive (so won't set any draft order).

My advice, spend at least $10K for Div II and III. Personally I still think $40K is an overkill. $40K would equate to $560K in a season. No guarantee that the player you get is going to be worth that much also. $560K already can get 2 decent trainees on the transfer list. $20K still acceptable.

Added on June 11, 2009, 9:28 amhere a little bit about training which copy from BB forum...

==============================================

Stamina and Free Throws do NOT depend on trainer level.

Pressure trains Outside Def, Inside Def, Handling & Driving for positions PG/SG/SF.

ShotBlocking trains Shotblocking, Inside Def and Rebounding for positions C/PF/SF.

Inside Defense trains Inside Def, Driving, Inside Scoring and Shot blocking for positions C/PF/SF.

Rebounding trains Rebounding, Inside Def and Inside Scoring for positions C/PF and team.

Inside Scoring trains Inside Scoring, Inside Def and Jump Shot for positions C/PF/SF.

One on One trains Driving, Handling, Inside Scoring and Jump Shot for positions Guards, Forwards and team.

Outside Shooting trains Jump Shot, Jump Range, Driving and Handling for positions SG/PG and team.

Jump Shot trains Jump Shot, Jump Range, Driving and Handling for position Guards (SG/PG), Jump Shot and Inside Scoring for position Forwards (SF/PF), Jump Shot, Jump Range, Driving and Handling for position Wingmen (SG/SF) and Jump Shot, Jump Range, Driving, Handling and Inside Scoring for team.

Ball Handling trains Handling, Driving and Outside Def for positions PG/SG/SF.

Passing trains Passing, Handling and Driving for positons PG/SG and team.

The underlined skill denotes leveling up time that is generally half the time required for the other skills stated. Also note that training time is also longer for training of more than one positions. For 3 positions and team will generally be even more longer. Players' heights is also considered for training of certain skills for certain positions. An SG with shorter height will train faster as compared to an SG that is taller for skills such as handling. Taller Centers will train faster for Rebounding as compared to shorter Centers.

Ideally you should employ a Level 5 trainer for better training efficiency.

walao 1 player so many skill sibeh tau tua la

Actually that is what makes the game so fun. Well for me anyways. There is no single skill which u must max out for 1 particular position. You need to balance them out and try to juggle it so that you get optimum training while not causing your players to be overpriced (due to 1 skill very very high).

One thing is for sure, it is not a simple game and not something for everyone. The learning curve will take 2-4 weeks depending on whether or not you have a mentor. Also, to establish a good team you will need at least half a year before you can actually expect to have a decent team. I know saying this might deter some people from trying out the game, but better to inform upfront so that you guys know what you are getting into.

But all in all, the game for me is fun and simple to manage. I don't have to pressure myself to commit certain hours everyday to play the game. And at the same time complicated enough to keep my mind thinking constantly.

basketball use hand ma.. bo xiang football, use leg nia..
haha. so need lot of skill..

peng you, lu beh hiao wa lang ka lu... beh tau tua liao....

use hand also no need so many skills gua really headache lolz

ho peng you lu ka wa liao lang ma bo lang pa eh tor liao hahaha

wait i create ma haha i haven't created

Then quickly create it!!!

i create a team and fire everyone. now need to bid and hopefully can get someone before the next game..hahah

??? U fired everyone or fired those below $3K salary? Wat is ur ID? I can prob give u a few pointers once I look at ur roster

his team name is laksarawak, at div III.5

Most of his rosters are foreigner...i just suggested him to decide on training type and get a real potential young roster to train for 1-2 season as i noticed even the purchase he got is not good enough for division II, he should start planning for next 1-2 season now for going into division II...
