I chose this data since BBB KO games are high level games, played at 12 TS / same attitude since s34 and does not suffer from HCA influence. I think this is the best data available to analyze. Indeed GDP influence the output data, but this is also a present reality of BB : you have way more chances to be predicted inside.

This data should be compared to England first division data to be validated since the number of occurences of some tactics are low and uncertainties about them are probably high. I will try to find some interesting outside offense BBB round robin games to add to the database in order to reduce these uncertainties.


I just want to share an idea, not so sure how good/bad it is but I'm confident you and Lemonshine can :-)

do you think it could be useful taking a new set of data from games bewteen BOT teams only? It is true that there is the HCA influence, but you will have a huge set of data, and the low level of the players can give you minimal variance from the medium values.
I don't know if there are series made of BOT teams only. You can also use only data from matches with few points of difference in the final result. And these data can be a sort of "reference" for % values of interesting parameters.

there are 450-500 lines of play-by-play on average. this means 100 games = 45,000 lines, 200 games = 90,000. The more games you use the slower the code gets, until you have 800k+ lines and you really need to use a database software like SQL or Access, because in Excel it will be hard to run.

My code was always meant to be a scouting tool (with more sophisticated defensive and offensive stats than Buzzer Manager provides) or an advanced stats generator (I thought it would be cool to compile this data for the top 5 leagues in England and my league in Utopia). I did this analysis just to start the conversation.

If we wanted to investigate baseline numbers we could just get some d4 (fully human) and look at that. I'm thinking it's always better to do a whole league rather than a cup like the B3 because everyone plays everyone which should average out a lot of things, while in the B3 the best teams play more games. But yes, recent B3 games don't have the influence of Enth and HCA, which makes them valuable because of it.

yes! and that's why you can use these data as a reference for different tactics measurements

right, I'm not an expert, and these numbers are huge for sure
but the size of the data depends not only by the number of rows, it's also a matter of how long a single line is, I mean you don't need to store all that text, you just need to identify each sentence by a number

about Enth it is always the same for BOTs and the HCA is leveled in home and away games in a whole regular season

however we're always talking about millions of rows so yes, it's becoming a professional thing, too much for a game!
don't we want to perform a reverse engineering of the engine don't we?

Tinypic stopped working and caused me to lose a lot of this information as well as information from previous USA U21 NT teams as well. The only person that might still have this information to repost is Lemonshine.
