I spent $40K a week since I started a few weeks ago. I scouted 43 people once and 19 twice. I started about 11/8 (month)/09. Now cut back to $5K for next year.

Yeah. I know I will at least get one good player, hopefully 2 as my league doesn't invest too much in
scouting.

I got 28 pieces of info (22 + 6) from investing 5k each week.

A season has this amount of weeks to pay for scouting:

2 weeks during PO games + 3.5 weeks for the first part of the competition + 4 weeks for the middle part + 3.5 weeks for the final part
Together this is 13 weeks. there also is 0,5 week extra for the All-star, and an other 0,5 week at the start of the season, totalling 14 weeks you get a chance to pay for scouting, right?

This indeed means we all get 14 pieces of free info...

hm

maybe I SHOULD set my scouting to 0 , ... but then again... 70k isn't all that much to spend on 1 season.

i am starting to think the opposite i spent 10G all year and dont have enuf info

considering you can sell a good draft pick for somewhere between 200g and 2mil it prob is a good idea to spend more to make sure you dont stuff up

if i spent another 10g a week total 140g and just one of my picks went from dud to stud i would be well ahead

what do peeps think

Yes, 14 (12 + 2 scouted twice) is about right. Does anyone know the system determines when a player is scouted twice? For example, if I put $5K more, will my scouts look at new player or bring in someone for a second look?

well, everything depends on where your team ends at the end of the year.

I spend 5k for a long time now, just to not be completely clueless, but I didn't have any decent player drafted for the past 5 seasons now.

If I would spend 40 k each week it would be a waste, since I get 16th pick, and I don't think chances for a stud are very high, even if you get ALL the info there is...

As long as I keep making play-offs, I'm going to keep my amount at 5k. I might get a player I can sell for 100k, and my investment is 70k, so it pays off that way.

Hi CrazyEye, I dont know if this will help you, but I always thought that each scout were 14 more views (one for each scout during the 14 weeks).

This is how it should work.

No views - 14 views
1 scout (5k) - 28 views
2 scouts (10k) - 42 views (this is sure, as this year I invested 10k and I had 32+10)
3 scouts (20k) - 56 views
4 scouts (30k) - 70 views

Take care that some people dont invest the same during the year. So maby some of the datas you get can be confusing.
