Call for newEV data

2012-01-26T16:31:00.000-08:00

Dear all,

the new EV is here, so is the question of what is the new formula between the newEV, age, predicted wage and working rate.
In order to calculate it please submit these data in the form below.

Call for training data

2012-01-13T11:32:00.000-08:00

Dear managers,

The previous call for data resulted in several interesting data points which will be summarized soon in a separate post. As you can see from the older we are in the position to have a relatively clear idea about the training speed for a given age and WR but we do not have yet a closed formula.

We need more data (and believe me I am doing my best with my team since each year we have new data - ages are increased by 1) to have better results, so I prepared an easier way to give me your data.

In the excelsheet that you can find here (in xlsx format) (press here for the xls format and here for the ods format) you see a table with 10 rows and several columns. I am asking - whoever is interested and willing - to provide his training data as follows:

Make sure you are a supporter
Make sure you trained 40h
Edit the green cells:

TEAM: please fill in your manager name (in order to be able to ask you if there is an error for example).
Player: if you want write the player's name (optional)
40h: please fill in your training speed as you see in the players page. (if it is positive omit the "+" and use dot as the decimal symbol).
EV: please fill in the EV of the player (omitting the dots).
PW: please fill in the predicted wage (omitting the dots).
Csenior: please fill in the coach's ability to train senior players.

When you are done please submit your excel.

There is a new update fixing some issues that were brought up recently:

1) Fixed the spacing problems in player page.

Moreover :

4) I finalized the players summary in the right side of the players page.
5) Only for Google Chrome: I added the BSGoodies logo with a link on top in order to be able to go directly to BSgoodies.

Possible features for new Basketfox

2011-09-30T09:47:00.000-07:00

Dear BS managers,

I have been thinking of a new version of Basketfox and I came up with many different features that seem to be very interesting. Unfortunately, I have to prioritize and implement only some of them in order to have it some time soon.

So, I created a poll that you can find in the top of the page that you can select the feature you find the most important. I will try to implement as many features as possible but I will implement first the features that seem to be the most relevant.

The options up to now are:

When in the match report page I can try to calculate some statistics like how many extra free throws were made and how many missed (it was discussed in some forums and its actually fun to have this number). It may be possible to calculate other stats as well so if you have an idea (and an idea how to do it!!) please submit your proposal in this form.
When in the training report page I can present the exact sublevel for each player.
When in the players page I can use the "Training" information to calculate how many weeks are needed to pop a skill (this cannot take into account the sublevel so it will assume that sublevel is 0).
When in the training page or the coach market page I can present the coach's info (workrate, xp, wr with youths) with a numerical number in parenthesis which is currently missing.
In the players page I can enhance on the right hand-side the table with the team averages. I was thinking of presenting the averages of the (i) first 5 players, (ii) second 5 players, (iii) all players for several attributes like: (a) total skill, (b) wage, (c) exp, (d) age
In the arena page I can add the BSGoodies proposal for cheerleaders investment.

Options 2 and 3 can be used only by supporters. If you have another idea please submit it in this form.

Please vote in the poll in the top. Which extensions do you find more relevant. If you have other ideas as well please use the forms and submit them!

Best,

BSGoodies Team

Call for training data

2011-09-24T17:51:00.000-07:00

Dear basketsim managers,

Here at BSGoodies we have been trying to verify and re-engineer the training formula based on age and real WR. We have already collected some data but now we really need the help of basketsim community. Every supporter has every week the detailed information about the training of his players. We would like to collect as much data as possible including:

Training speed (e.g. +1.14)
Training intensity (e.g. 40h)
Player's EV
Player's age
Player's predicted wage
Coach ability to train senior players (1-100)
Coach WR (1-15)
Coach motivation (1-100)

This information per player will help us understand how the training speed varies according to age and WR. We have some preliminary results (see image below) and we wait for you help to have a more conclusive analysis. Please provide your data!

Using your data we can complete the image and be able to calculate the training speed for a variety of ages and WR. This will help us to build a tool which will calculate with absolute accuracy the future skill of your player if you train him for 2,3 or 4 years. As you can see it is really useful!

Basketfox enhanced by BSGoodies

2011-08-30T12:44:00.001-07:00

Current version of Basketfox for Chrome
Current version of Basketfox for Firefox

Dear friends,

I have been thinking of a more complete basketfox for a long time now.
We present Basketfox enhanced by BSGoodies with the following amazing new features:

1) Presentation of player in the (single) player page:
-- Skill per position
-- BMI (next to weight)
-- Numerical values of each skill

Edit: Links updated to support any language. (versions 0.6.5 and 1.6 respectively)

Edit: NEW amazing update! Using current wage as an estimation for predicted wage you can see an estimation of WR for players that are not yours! (versions 0.6.6 and 1.7 respectively) (kudos to wizinjsh for his proposal)

Edit: For details about Basketfox for Chrome 1.11.2 and Basketfox for Firefox 1.1.1 see my new post!

Edit: For details about Basketfox for Chrome 1.12.9 and Basketfox for Firefox 1.1.7 see my new post!

New Tool: Financial Tool

2011-08-24T22:19:00.000-07:00

While still in beta BSGoodies made this tool available to help managers organize in season 14.

This tool works as follows:
A manager gives:
-- current financial situation
-- current number of fans
-- average weekly fan increase
-- number of weeks to give 50.000 for youth (first weeks like that)
-- number of weeks to give 25.000 for youth (if any, after the above weeks)
-- amount of money that cheerleaders get
-- amount of money planned to be invested by the end of the year to college (if any)
-- expected cup matches (after cup matches friendly matches are assumed, also used to calculate cup rewards if any)
-- arena size which will be full during league match and half during cup matches (obviously this is just an estimation)
-- tickets during friendly matches
-- league level and estimated final position (to calculate rewards)

Please insert only digits in the textboxes: no dots and no euro symbols.

Enjoy the tool here

More details soon!

Best,
BSGoodies

Major revision in Cheerleaders Investment Formula

2011-08-07T01:21:00.000-07:00

BSGoodies announce a brand new formula, a result which exists only because more than 150 basketsim managers shared their data with us. After careful analysis, cleaning and processing of the data we concluded that the new BSGoodies Cheerleaders Weekly Investment formula is:

Investment = 1100 + 1.25 * ArenaSize

For people who are curious, and want to see some math, more details about the formula and the analysis can be found in this document.

More data is always welcome. Your participation in this form will help augment the quality of this result.

Edit: From the feedback we are getting it seems that the old formula is a better approximation for "small" arenas (up to ~26000). Apparently, the new formula overestimates the desirable amount of investment for "small" arenas. So we decided to post both formulae in the tool, along with this information, and leave the more arbitrary element of compromise between the two to the users.

Is there a way to fix this? Can we have one formula that we believe in for "all" arenas? YES: If you have a blossoming cheerleader squad, especially one ranked high in your country, please send us data using this form. [We need more high-ranked datapoints from the "small" arenas in particular -- but all data is welcome and useful].

New update for Tiredness Tool

2011-08-06T12:15:00.000-07:00

Today BSGoodies announce a major update for BSGoodies Tiredness Tool incorporating all recent changes.

The impact of tactics and the night rest have been changed and the change is reflected on BS Goodies Tiredness Tool following adiego's statement and the comprehensive wiki entry at BSwiki.

So, when a player is starter in a game, he gets tired. His tiredness depends on the tactics that the team has chosen. To be exact the tiredness is a sum of three parts of tiredness:

trd = c + dt + ot

where trd: tiredness, c: constant, dt: defense tiredness, ot: offense tiredness.

c is always equal to 3%, where dt and ot depends on the tactics chosen, as follows:

Defense: dt		Offense: ot
normal	2%	normal	2%
sprint back on defense	2%	read the defense	3%
contest every shot	2%	fast early breaks	1%
block out and rebound	2%	distance shooting	2%
protect power zone	2%	try to penetrate	2%
wear out opponents	1%	crash the boards	1%
half court trap	2%	inside shooting	2%

Tactics tiredness can be summarized in the following table:

	NO	RTD	FEB	DS	TTP	CTB	IS
ND	7%	8%	6%	7%	7%	6%	7%
SPOD	7%	8%	6%	7%	7%	6%	7%

WOΤO	6%	7%	5%	6%	6%	5%	6%
HCT	7%	8%	6%	7%	7%	6%	7%

The tiredness is also affected from training, physical training, medical center and everyday rest as follows:

Training (weekly tiredness, every Thursday):

Level	Tired%
Leisure (15h)	-5%
Normal (25h)	0%
Intense (30h)	6%

Dear basketsim managers,
Dear friends,

Due to other engagements I have minimize the time I give to the game. BSGoodies though, play a very important role for so many of us and I really want to keep it working.

Because I do not have time to look often all forums please let me know if some calculations are not correct any more. Moreover, please let me know how I can make them correct if the information is available.

I will try to validate the site as often as I can, but with your feedback this will be much more efficient.

Tiredness tool updated

2010-01-20T04:59:00.000-08:00

The impact of tactics and training has been changed on BS Goodies Tiredness Tool following adiego's statement and the comprehensive wiki entry at BSwiki.

The first change is for training. Intense training results in 6% (from 5% in the past) tiredness for all players that get trained and Immense training results in 12% (from 10% in the past).

The second change is about tactics tiredness. So, when a player is starter in a game, he gets tired. His tiredness depends on the tactics that the team has chosen. To be exact the tiredness is a sum of three parts of tiredness:

trd = c + dt + ot

where trd: tiredness, c: constant, dt: defense tiredness, ot: offense tiredness.

c is always equal to 4%, where dt and ot depends on the tactics chosen, as follows:

Re-evaluating Cheerleaders tool (cont'd)

2009-11-21T05:11:00.000-08:00

Dear Basketsim Managers,

First of all, I would like to thank all of you for your participation in this effort!!

After the 1st week of the re-evaluation of cheerleaders formula we have received a lot of interesting data and we have some first conclusions. We need however much more data. So, I would like to extend the invitation to add your data once again during this week.

In order to do that just fill in your data in this form.

Status: Unique verified entries: 35

In the image you can see all the data point corresponding to blossoming cheerleaders. I tried to verify that all data comes from existing users and that the data is real.

In order to come up with conclusive results we need much more data. Moreover, the majority of the data is concentrated between 25000 and 35000 so it is still difficult to evaluate the formula for arena sizes outside this interval.

So, please add your data in the form. We need more data for any available size!

Re-evaluating Cheerleaders tool

2009-11-14T07:37:00.001-08:00

Dear Basketsim Managers,

I am trying to evaluate the accuracy of the tool proposing Cheerleaders contribution. To that end I want to gather as much information as possible from managers who have blossoming cheerleaders. In order to have meaningful results it is important that all data used come from managers who:

Have blossoming cheerleaders (imperative!!)
Have the same arena size for the current season
If possible have the same investment per week for the current season

I am asking to give the data with your username but if somebody wants his/her anonymity of course this will be respected. When I have an important number of data I will start making public the results (and update them as more data come).

All managers who are interested in contributing, please write directly your data in form you can find in this link (if you have any questions send me a private me: Athens Kokoi home page). The data needed are the following:

Manager username (the only reason I ask for it is in order to verify that each data point is unique it will be kept privately)
Arena Size
Current Investment
Total Investment
A verification that you have Blossoming (it is just a reminder!)
Cheerleader squad position and country

When enough data are gathered, firstly I will publish the statistics and I can provide my assessment for all managers that need some tweak to their weekly contribution!

BS goodies present the new, integrated "Arena Tool"

2008-09-11T03:56:00.000-07:00

The new integrated "Arena Tool" was completed yesterday. With this tool a BS manager can make a lot of computations! In this post the functionality of "Arena Tool" will be explained.

The BS manager fills in the information of his current arena, as well as, the desired number of new arena size or the available budget.

By pressing the "Size" button, a new arena is calculated according to the "perfect" seat ratio. If the current arena setup has very bad seat ratio, then, it is possible that the proposed arena setup will have some irregularities, that is, it can propose more seats than the desired seats number.

By pressing the "Budget" button, a new arena is calculated according to the "perfect" seat ratio, but always the budget is not exceeded. If the current arena setup has very bad seat ratio, then, it is possible that the proposed arena setup will have some irregularities, that is, the ratio may not be exactly the "perfect" seat ratio.

By pressing the "Tick's" button, a new arena is calculated according to the "perfect" seat ratio. This arena has the desired revenue (in case it is full). If the current arena setup has very bad seat ratio, then, it is possible that the proposed arena setup will have some irregularities, that is, the ratio may not be exactly the "perfect" seat ratio.

By pressing the "Fanclub" button, a new arena is calculated according to the "perfect" seat ratio. This arena is designed according to a given Fanclub, in a way that the arena will be full of fans. If the current arena setup has very bad seat ratio, then, it is possible that the proposed arena setup will have some irregularities, that is, the ratio may not be exactly the "perfect" seat ratio.

If the BS manager selects the add/sub choice, then there is a possibility that the tool may propose to destroy a few seats in order to create a perfectly balanced arena. If not (and the add only choice is selcted) then it is possible to have seat ratio irrgularities.

By pressing the "Copy" button, the proposed seat setup is copied into the current seat setup textboxes, for further calulations.

When a new arena is proposed, along with the new seats, the total seats and the costs, the following arena-dependent calculations are made:

The minimum size of funclub needed to fill this arena, which is [arena size]/17 and is true only when cheerleders are blossoming and the team has a few entertaining players.
The weekly compenasation for cheerleaders in order to be blosslomg.
The maximum tickets income, which happens only if arena is full, which can be done according to the two previous calculations.
The home games needed in order to get all the new-arena-investment-money returned from tickets.
The duarion of the contstruction in days.

Finally, in the textarea a BS manager can see explanation about the proposed arena and costs.

* This tool is inspired by bs-helpdesk and bsimvndv.com and it, also, introduces new features!

BS goodies present the new "Coach & Training Tool"

2008-09-07T14:43:00.000-07:00

The first part of the Tool is the same Coach Tool that was described previously. The only difference is that when the button "Coach Tool" is pressed the "Coach TB" of the Training Tool is also gettting the coach training bonus as value.

This value will be used in order to compuer the weekly Training increase of the player. The provided web interface implements both the fast and the slow (and exact way). In other words, a user can fill just the "Age" and the "Workrate" and get the training speed of a player (the coach training bonus is used automatically from the textbox "Coach TB", nevertheless the user may change the value in that box"). Alternatively, if a user chooses to fill in "Age", "Pr. Wage", "EV" then the "Workrate" is computed more accurately and the computed Workrate is used in order to provide more accurate results.

Enjoy!

Tactics Tiredness

2008-07-03T06:11:00.000-07:00

When a player is starter in a game, he gets tired. His tiredness depends on the tactics that the team has chosen. To be exact the tiredness is a sum of three parts of tiredness:

trd = c + dt + ot

where trd: tiredness, c: constant, dt: defense tiredness, ot: offense tiredness.

c is always equal to 5%, where dt and ot depends on the tactics chosen, as follows:

Defense: dt		Offense: ot
normal	0%	normal	0%
sprint back on defense	2%	read the defense	2%
contest every shot	1%	fast early breaks	1%
block out and rebound	2%	distance shooting	1%
protect power zone	1%	try to penetrate	2%
wear out opponents	1%	crash the boards	2%

Tactics tiredness can be summarized in the following table:

The tiredness tool

2008-07-02T11:53:00.001-07:00

After a few days of research and development (ok simple development!!!), I announce the new Tiredness Tool (TT). This tool aims to help the BS manager to compute fast and accurately the tiredness of his players.

Firstly, you choose the current tiredness, the starting day (which is assumed to be before any events on this day) and the finishing day. Moreover you choose the intensity of training, the kind of physical training, the level of medical center and the tactics of any game the player may play in this period. The current version of TT, supports a period of up to two weeks and in the Info about games section, firstly you select if your games are played during Saturday and Tuesday or Sunday and Wednesday. Moreover, you select the corresponding tactics of the game during which the current player was starter. If the player was not a starter in the game you leave the option "--" in order to signify that the player did not participate in that game!

Feel free to ask me any questions!

Edit: Adding a table showing physical training tiredness and weight impact

Training	Weight	Tired
Jogging Agility	-0.2	+1%
Jogging Power	-0.3	+1%
ShortSp Agility	-0.3	+1%
ShortSp Power	-0.5	+2%
Pushup Agility	+0.2	+1%
Pushup Power	+0.4	+1%
Weight Lifting Agility	+0.2	+1%
Weight Liftin Power	+0.5	+2%

The agent tool

2008-06-20T03:12:00.000-07:00

The agent tool is just finished. This tool is needed in order to find out how much money the agents take from us when we sell a player in less than 61 days. There have been implemented two ways of using it.

If you leave the dates as they are (with "--") and you fill in the prices and the days between the trasnfers yourself then the net income and the agent fees are computed based on the days you provided. If you set specific dates then any value in the "days between" box is dicarded and the difference in days betweeb transfers is calculated based on the dates. You can leave blank the year for both dates if the transfers occured in the sane year.

The calculation is done as follows:

If the difference in days between transfers is 1 to 61 days then:
The agents take: (salePrice-purchasePrice)*(61-diffDays)/60
You take: the rest (!)

The coach tool

2008-06-19T02:46:00.000-07:00

The coach tool computes the contribution of a coach in two areas:

Training
Freethrows

Moreover it computes how fast does the motivation drop in the end of the current season.

When a team has no coach, the training that every player get depends only on his skills/age, but when a coach is hired the training bonus he offers is added to every player Training rise. This number is sublevels of a skill. Each level of skill has 8 sublevels and the maximum coach training bonus is 0.5 sublevels which is 1/16 of a level.

Freethorows bonus is the increase of Freethrows skill for every player on court during the fourth period of a game.

The motivation of a coach drops at the end of every season by 4% to 8%. The exact number depends on his age and character.

The curve of financial support by sponsors

2008-06-14T10:25:00.000-07:00

I haven't seen any team with more than 2000 fans, so I ended the curve at this number! If someone has seen any bigger fan number please let me know!

The forumla to compute the sponsor support is

S = 7000 * sqrt(f)

where
S: Sponsor support
sqrt: square root
f: total number of fans
