new to the game, and having browsed around a bit, I have been unable to find the answers to these questions. hopefully someone out there can help shed some light on them for me.

A) do injured players receive training for the minutes played?

B) which ratings are effected by enthusiasm, and to which extent?

C) the effect on TIE/CT on enthusiasm are very transparent, but I cant quite work out what the impact is on the court, i.e. once again, which ratings are effected and to which extent?

edit: oops. seems I posted this in bugs instead of questions. could a mod move this, please?

I read somewhere that playing "normal" with enthusiasm 8 is roughly the same as playing CT with enthusiasm 5.

Pretty much everything is effected by both Ent and Effort.

that is indeed also the impression I got from the empirical evidence seen on my own team for the 1 season I have played, but that is hardly a statistically relevant sample, and I was wondering if there were actually any studies done (from a larger data sample), e.g. through the use of private league games which from the look of things seem ideally suited for such a purpose, which would enable at least an approximation of the extent of the effect, and indeed also confirm if all skills are involved (whereas e.g. the home field advantage seems to effect only defense and rebounding ?)

though that obviously leaves the question whether that says more about the CT- or enthusiasm impact, it does at least give some kind of quantitative idea. thanks.

Some people say that high enthusiasm will make the defense better and using CT will make the offense better. Is this necesarrily true?

CT=better offense could make sense but high enthusiasm can only make the defense better???

Not according to coach Parrot, it says that everything improves and I trust it.

now I'm confused. My Coach Parrot sheet applies a rating impact for both enthusiasm and home court advantage only on PD, ID, and rebounding. no offensive impact whatsoever - and it does not seem to have any option to select PIE/CT for the ratings estimate. could I have an old version, or am I overlooking something here?

edit: just checked. running v 2.01. is there a newer one out there?

oh - and for the record, I must based on my limited knowledge of the game at this point say that I find CP to be an amazing tool. I wish I had such a profound understanding of this game - let alone that level of excel skill...

I can't give you stats but I since I have got my enthusiasm up to a 9-10 every game I am dominating my opponents. In two games:

Against rivals on their home court TIE won by 8 with about a 7 enthusiasm.

Against #2(at the time) team on their home court TV game TIE and won by 13 with about 9 enthusiasm.

It is very beneficial. Once you get it up keep TIE and its like playing CT every time. Great advantage over teams that have no idea about it.
