Strange thing happened this week. One of my guards played 97 minutes this week and then, after this week's training, he dropped from respectable to average stamina. And it's not like he's old - he's 21.

Did one of the editorials say something like this could happen?

I had stamina drops at 73 and 56 minutes of playing time this week.

I'm really quite unhappy with the stamina changes last season (or this season, for that matter), and as I have nothing nice to say at this point, I'm going to shut up before I get Juice all riled up.

Are the stamina drops random? Or are the stamina levels heading towards some equilibrium value? I vaguely remember a news item about stamina changing, but I can't find it.

from the news (offseason changes part 2):
Stamina loss will now happen at a regular, set rate for all players. It will be more difficult to keep high levels of stamina than low levels, but all levels of stamina will drop much more slowly than at present.

i like it this way better. last year you were really screwed if your star player got injured. he lost all of his stamina. at the end of the injury you could decide if you want to train stamina for the whole team. so your star player can play lots of minutes again. but for the rest of the team stamina training was more ore less useless.
the other oppurtunity was not setting the star player to be a starter...

this season everyone is suppossed to train stamina once in a while. No disadvantages for anybody.

I´m still wondering if players still lose more stamina if they play less than 24 minutes. I know that it was like this last year, but I interpret the news that everyone loses stamina no matter how much he play.
Anyways havent had any drops from players with less than 24 min.


edit: ups... second

I was going to say something about the developers' mother's fudge, and I would've been speaking more out of frustration than about the game itself (and I'vve seen how you react to that sort of unfounded potshot on Global). Besides, I love this game.

I've calmed down now, and it doesn't bother me so much that the guy I have with atrocious stamina who has yet to play a single minute this season has not dropped in stamina, while players with some of the best stamina on my team did.

Also, given more consideration to the wording of the stamina changes, this makes more sense. I plan to train it for a decent block of weeks this season anyway.

Edit: "s" makes things plural.

I sorta wish it headed to an equilibrium value with playing time, i.e. guys that are seeing 60 minutes a week would go up to, say, average without further training.
