1. i've seen the salary updates, and read lots of the related forum material. that being said, i'm interested in the net effect; rather, is the salary universe inflationary as the limited data seems to suggest (the top 100 + vs top 100-), or perhaps there are a substantially larger set of minuses... do the reductions and additions net out to $0.?

2. i've been trying to pull up the old decision engine discussions, and alot of the links are broken. In the new era of adjustable salaries, i'd like to revisit the source material about how WIS works thru the process, especially the pitching vs. hitting %, and the decision tree bout strikes vs balls...

any feedback would be welcome. if someone has recently answered/re-answered these queries, i apologize in advance.

1. The net is close to 0. schwarze documented this in a thread after both the first and second updates. I do not have a link for it handy but you should be able to find it if you search.

My understanding is that this is a net zero overall impact with many more very small incremental reductions and very few large increases. The more frequently a player is used the greater the increase in salary, generally speaking.

So i just wanna confirm, if a player is used, their salary is gonna increase, even if they're used once? Cuz, if that's true, I'd rather go back to the old system

That might happen only if there are very few leagues run in a period, because that would be imply the "average usage" is between 0 and 1 use. A player's salary remains flat if their usage is equal to the average usage for a player, increases with above-average use, and decreases with below-average use.
