It all goes to next season.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke
Charles: Penn has some good people
A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

Hi. I have a question, and i'm terribly sorry if i've missed the answer previously.

Is the player potential acutally going to show on the player screen when they're transfer listed (or even just normally)?

I've played other games 'sokker' where this really isnt the case. You rely on the person actually proveing their potential (or talent in this case) by showing a SS of training records.

This would open up a whole new can of worms and really make things difficult. Not that i would comlain but if it is not shown, im just gonna snap up all the 'all-stars' i can before the draft.

the potential is here a "cap" if I understand and everyone train the same speed until reach the cap, then it slows

Ok, now i'm confused. I thought the potential ratings went from 1-5 but there are 12 steps of potential ranking listed in the Rules now. How does the following translate into a 1-5 star rating? O_o

announcer
bench warmer
role player
6th man
starter
star
allstar
perennial allstar
superstar
MVP
hall of famer
all-time great

thats a lot of different levels considering the skills have 20 possible achievable levels... if every player in BB is allstar at best it raises the question can a new draft with allstar potential be as good as some of the allstar ones now? there are a few very special players already (i imagine destined to get better) or will this put a cap on them? because with 5 potential categories higher than allstar how can the players we have now go on to be legendary in certain skills? (some players are only 2-3 levels away)

or... is the potential going to be linked to the SPEED in which a player can improve his attributes?

My guess is that the potential does not set a cap on an individual skill, but rather on some kind of weighted some of skills.

I have question on the 5 star players. Say if you have 6 players with 5 stars and only one of them was scouted for a 2nd time. That one player has a A- grade and 3 star potential.

With a 5 star ranking, A- is the worse you can get and 3 star potential is normal. Wouldn't you just rank the guy last out of your six 5 star players. Notwithstanding his 3 star potential, you cannot get any worse than A- with your 5 star guys, no?

Now I am confused...
I thought that potential was up to level 5.
Today I discover that there are 12 diffenret levels!

Does anyone know if we see a 4 potential player in the draft what it means with this 12 level scale?

I think that we will figure it out soon - after a draft

If you draft player with a 5 stars on the potential, it doesn't mean that he has a best potential, but you can be sure that one of the best
