Knight just started recruiting session 1. I have a preference that is changing from good to neutral on a game to game basis. Because this is a turbo world I want to make sure I understand when effort is processed. As of 11am I'm going to have said preference as 'good.' So let's say I send my HV/CV/promises at noon while the preference is good-the actions won't process until 5pm which is AFTER the next game is going to sim. What happens if that preference changes to neutral after the 2 PM game? Does my effort still get the 'good' multiplier or will it go to the neutral multiplier?

FWIW, I would not mind seeing preferences freeze once recruiting starts to avoid confusion like this.

That is an interesting question. I don't know the answer but it makes sense in my head that the effort will be processed with whatever your preference is at 5 as opposed to when you submit the effort.

It's whenever it's processed, not when you put it in.

But keep in mind that there is a gradient for preferences. Not all neutrals are worth the same and not all goods are worth the same- etc etc.

So you're probably teetering on the edge between the good/neutral from a naming standpoint but the actual difference is very minimal. It's like when a rating changes colors but the whole number doesn't change. You just hit a certain threshold to change name/colors but the change itself is small.

I think you're probably overthinking this one a little bit in this particular example. It's not a night and day difference.

I think Benis is right....your neutrals can give you a -1.49 to +1.49 (I am making those numbers up) modifier and good could be 1.5 to 3.4. You are probably going back and forth between a hundreth of a percent.

Thanks for the info guys. Didn't realize there were levels within good and neutral, which sort of makes my initial question moot as you pointed out.
