You missed the point. The point I was making was that you can get a pop multiple weeks in a row for a single skill, however you cannot get a pop every week for a single skill.

No skill, regardless of 1 position training, level 7 trainer and optimal height and age, will ever receive a pop every single week that it is trained.

Therefore no single training can add 1.0+ to a skill.

But, you need to look at the time when the zeros are removed from the board. That's when the weekly clear happens.

You don't think that IS or ID single position trains faster than RB? I don't have hard proof or anything, but I would be willing to bet that they do. And I din't even have a level7 trainer. So, that would give an additional small boost. In addition if the skill is a revers runaway that would give even more of a boost on top of that.

Still won't ever allow a skill to pop every single week.

When did I ever say that it would? Your logic is flowed. Just because a skill isn't likely to keep popping every single week doesn't mean that it can't. Don't forget that there is still a luck factor involved. You could have enough of a variance just on that alone to account for that happening once in a while.

What luck factor? Are you saying that the amount received by training each week is random within reason? I disagree.

Well the whole point of this thread was to find out if a skill can pop twice in the same week. i.e. can a skill go from Respectable to Proficient.

This means that a skill must be able to receive more than 1.0 training. Which is not possible at any time regardless of circumstance.

How do you know this, again. You are just guessing. I have heared it from experienced managers who had it happen to them. And as far as the "luck factor" is concerned it's the same thing. Just because you are not aware of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Name 1 experienced manager that claims it has happened to.

As for the luck factor, I can't prove it doesn't exist. Can you prove it does?

Lol. You are just being childish. I don't have to prove anything to you. And are you now backtracking. A second ago you were sure of yourself. You really should stop trying to pass your own opinion for a fact. That's why I don't have to prove it to you. Because it is not hard fact but just my experience and experience of many others. Just because you believe it to be true doesn't mean it is. As for the manager it wasn't just one, but the one in particular that I can recall I believe was GM-JohnnyB.

How am I backtracking? I am still sure. Nothing in my post indicates that I am any less sure.
So what you are saying is that you have a different opinion, but with no proof to back it up?
Okay I'll ask the GM and see what he says, or if he read this hopefully he can provide his experience.

Perhaps the illusion of luck comes from varying sublevels.
