Agreed. A manager should have to think and work for results.

If I go by this standard, given the choice, I'd choose the current system over yours or hrudey's 100 times out of 100.

If I was opposing any change, as I'm sure others are, I'd say both of you just want to make it much easier for managers, especially those in higher level leagues, by removing part of the complexity of the game.

If you actually understood either his suggestion or mine, you would see we both prefer to retain the challenge of training, possibly even make it harder but clearer. Of course, if you don't understand what either of us are suggesting, you can't see a thing, as is the case.

I believe I do understand your proposal and hrudey's ...

Are you seriously claiming that you are proposing something harsher than playing each trainee 1 or 2 games a week out of position for several seasons?

Your problem seem to actually be with managers who are able to obtain good results with the current system. I'd say it's pretty safe to assume you don't consider yourself one of those who have figured it out...

The next time I see you say anything that accurately reflected my suggestions will be the first time. That's why I say you don't understand. It's very evident.

What I would like to see is a training system just as challenging for managers if not moreso, but logical.

I don't really know or care which managers are "good" at the current system, actually. I consider myself a relative newbie at BB who recognizes a contorted, illogical mess (such as training) when he sees it. There is no logic whatsoever to training a "position" instead of a player, no logic whatsoever to having to train a player "out of position" for optimal results, no logic whatsoever to having to play minutes in a competitive game in order to get any benefit from training at all, etc. If only Hattrick had had a simple, logical system of training when BB spun off from it, we would be blessed with one, too.

By the way, I am pretty much done with anyone who simply wants to blindly argue rather than elevating the discourse on the merits of the subject (hint, hint).
