what the creators of the game have said.

That's not really what I said though.


...and FT-skill cannot drop. I guess the creators - that haven't been seen here for the last few years - have said many things that are somewhat cryptic and from my experience those statements can be a bit misleading too.

But to put my money where my mouth is, I will pay a full year of supporter to anybody who can prove that increasing XP has a significant influence on a players shot quality. This offer is valid until the end of September.

Here's a NT game regarding USA where a player was solely dressed due to his FT and EXP. I think his EXP played a big part in the play.

You made the first claim, though. That's why you were asked for evidence.

Also, there was an "ask a BB day" not so long ago. Maybe they aren't the creators or maybe they are. I don't know. Still a pretty cool idea. Not many games where you get that...

I enjoyed reading the opinions from everyone. Thank you all for your input into my question.

Yeah, this is some good information.

Problem is, where real evidence is concerned, it needs to be based on many sets of data, not one. Probably hundreds of games would be getting to the point where you might be able to take away from anomalies. Presenting one or two or even 5/10 games could very well be useless because of how probability works.

Apologies if I seem condescending; it is truthfully not my intention.

...and gathering the data would be nigh on impossible

I think experience is just a staat saying how long they been playing. Plus how good they were in the past. Just my opinion no backup proof for this.

Heading on the right path so far. Are you?

I think gathering the data is possible
I do, too, but only in a very sloppy way.

to have a meaningful analysis you'd have to compare the same player with the same skills at different levels of Experience, wouldn't you? That's kind of a very difficult task to accomplish and if you do it with only 1 or 2 levels or experience it's unlikely to be noticeable.
Do you disagree with yourself? Haha!

I agree more with your second point of view. In order to do a meaningful analysis, you'd have to have the same players against the same players and the only thing that changes is their experience. Good luck sorting that out!!

I guess we just have to live with conjecture (and what it states in the game manual) for now.
