I think the salary is somewhat random and fits in a particular range.

I also think the drop periods are random as well, but all staff with the same name drop at the same time.

There's no sublevels in Staff at all.

This has been confirmed by the BBs.

Also, a LVL 10 is not 10% better than a LVL 9. The more staff skill rises, the less of a rise there is between levels.

The BBs may not have been asked the right question.

It doesn't matter whether a level 10 is 10% better than a level 9 as far a whether those differences are quantized or not.

I'm guaranteeing you that there are no sublevels in Staff.

Most of what I post on these forums is couched with "as far as I know", or "I believe".

In this case it's an unequivocal "this is a fact".

EDIT: I just called a BB and he confirmed this to be the case.

Might be illogical, but I think Juice is right on this one. I think there are no sublevels. The salaries are just to provide you with an incentive to change staff.

Clearly salaries are not directly related to staff level, since Alan Dubois is getting paid the same even though he has dropped at least a full level.

Salaries are related to the initial Staff level.

Once they drop, the salary stays the same - that's the incentive to not just keep the staff member for a really long time.

Some people may thing there is a "sublevel" because the player skills are "real" numbers and not "integer" numbers, and people expect it to be the same for the Staff. But as JuicePats said, it is not. The level of coaches are integers, they don't drop slowly to fractional values through time, they remain the same every week until they drop by exactly 1 at some RANDOM point.

So to sum up, when you want to have a level 10 trainer always, you keep him until he drops to 9, and only then you switch to the next level 10 that comes around. Nothing else makes any logical sense.

Salaries for different coaches who were originally "10" are not the same.

And this would naturally lead people to question whether a 10 coach with a higher salary was better than a 10 coach with a lower salary. But the BB's have said that there is no difference. One advantage of not having a fixed salary is that they can use the salary to regulate the number of "10" coaches in the game.
