No, he is bound to get injured because injuries are more based on games played than minutes played, so even if you play him at the rate he would have played over 82 games, he's still going to get injured. The system needs fixing still because injuries are still pretty random

Lol, as opposed to those non-random injuries.

Injuries are completely based on total minutes, not games played. This is the fairest method because salaries are basically a player's value multiplied by his minutes. So with injuries based on total minutes, and with the new fatigue being based on total minutes, you should get pretty much what you pay for.

You mean they aren't planned?

I just think if you draft a guy, he should be able to play the amount of minutes he did IRL without penalty, as long as he is not going over his 82 game pace.
If you play that 64-65 split Wilt at 20MPG, HE'S GOING TO GET INJURED...no MAYBES...no PROBABLYS, its going to happen...and that is the problem with the sim.
I would rather have no injuries and stricter fatigue penalties

I love your answers..."should pretty much" "essentially" he says.

That first sentence is a steaming line of ****. In terms of lower minute, half season guys, THEY WILL ALWAYS UNDERPERFORM in the sim

I said pretty much because there is still randomness built in. So you might get lucky and get some extra minutes or you might not. But with the new fatigue formula, even if you are lucky enough to avoid injuries, you'll see some fatigue if they're exceeding minutes.

Every player is treated the same way, by looking at total minutes. So why would half season guys underperform. You're just making wild claims with no evidence whatsoever.

EXTREMELY VAGUE

Every player is treated the same way, by looking at total minutes. So why would half season guys underperform. You're just making wild claims with no evidence whatsoever.

My 51 game Nate Thurmond is getting injured and right. He played 2100+ minutes IRL...am I going to get that out of him this season...nope...thus he's underperforming.

Again, you're NOW saying that GP has NO AFFECT on injuries...you're double speaking again.

Here's what you should do, instead of having MPG on the draft board...have MPG/82, basically dividing a player's minutes by 82 games to give users an idea of how often/much they should play their split season players. If games played don't matter...like you said...then eliminate them.

Where did I say that injuries were based on games played?
4/24/2006 12:23 PM
If games played don't matter
Why do guys that play 2000 minutes in 82 games get injured less than guys that played 2000 minutes in 50 games?

Edit: Some things are better unsaid.

I guess what bothers me most about you Seble is that you and Tinman dance around main points like you're in a damned ballroom. You seem to think that if you put actual facts and figures (numbers) into what you're saying that you're somehow giving the "secrets" of the game away and that someone would master the game and everyone would stop playing.
Everything seems like, or should pretty much, or just might, or essentially, or some fatigue...what do you really have to hide?
Whenever I suggest/have suggested something to you..you've always said..."That's ESSENTIALLY how it works".
If you want to see my fatigue work, I will show you. There is too much randomness in this game
