Ummmm, I know this is old-hat, but I just hit 9* for the first time with the "Knights of Eternity" Smile This is my first ever time to hit 9*, so I'm..

Totally..

Crap. Looks like I just went back to 8*, now that I check again :s ((Yes, I went to my team page in mid-sentence)

BUT At least I've got that 9* BADGE!

Hehe Yay! (Maybe it was switching positions? :s I used the Player Optimizer just recently... Does that maen the PO put my guys in WORSE positions? Just curious)

Anyway.. yay

Its possible. =) The thing with SmallBall is there are so many unknowns. The Player Optimizer is not perfect, but it does a pretty good job.

One of the main issues it isn't perfect is there just is not enough data there to do a perfect job. It places the positions based off of rankings. Well, if you only train 1 guys in throw, there will still be #2-12 that have zero skill in throw. That is a bit extreme, but you can see how easily the system can be made false.


Congrats on the 9*. Makes you feel good when you first get it, then you will be bummed for awhile until it sticks. =)

Yes I will congratulate you darmin because I know how it feels.

Your team probably put in players that have less overall skill then the others.

Thanks everyone And Jon2s, I'm still a firm believer in PO, lol Very Happy I'm using it on all of my teams today. (And anyway.. I've been using PO on that team quite often... So even if it DID switch out for worse players, those players were in those positions because I used PO on it. Soooooo... Wink )

I lost that 9* rating.. But I've got the badge.. So my day is stinking MADE!!!!!!
