a 2 lvl drop does not actually mean a 2 lvl drop.

if a player drops 1.1 for instance, he could drop 2 visible levels.

for instance, let's asume visible levels are rounded in a mathematical way. then 11.51 would be a visible 12 lvl.
so if this lvl 12 drops 1.1, he ends up at 10.41, which would visible be the rounded 10 lvl. so it looks like they dropped 2, but in reality dropped prety close to 1 level.

The older player get, the larger the drops will become, so if a 50 yr old drops 2 lvls, he will most likely have dropped close to 3 lvls in reality. ;þ

They are not your friends; they dispise you. I am the only one you can count on. Trust me.

I have a theory about skills drop:
Drop and pop-up both have elastic effect...

So if you can give us a full image of your player's skills, we can analize this case better.

I don't know how drops work, but it's not normal for a 33 years old player to decrease in more than 1 level any of his habilities in a week. If this continues the same way means that in 3 weeks will be in respectable?

As someone told you, it could drop from 12.0 to 10.9 (a 1.1 drop, not a 2 lvl drop), so visualy its two levels, but not in reality (remember sub-levels).

I think the surprise is that a player can drop 1.1. Most people were under the assumption that once players are old enough, they have a gradual, and consistent decrease in their skills, which is not the case if a player drops atleast 1.1 one week, and not the next. Drops have to be sporadic & fluctuate wildly (which I don't think is very realistic, and not the best for gameplay imo) but I guess as a community, we have to try to figure out if it's random decreases, or if there is some rhyme and reason behind those drops (eg. minutes played? GS?)
