well it is dependant on they use weighted random or not

by the looks of mine there is a balanced between 5s,4s,3s,2s
9 - 5s
9 - 4s
12 - 3s
9 - 2s
2 -1s
7 - unknowns

Because there is a low number in the sample the balance will not necessarily be visible.

Mathematically odds with current knowledge of the generation system (which is nothing except some sort of random) gives a 3/5 chance they will be 3stars or more.

if from 5 til 2 is balanced then I might have a great chance of my random ones being 3 or higher, sine i alreayd got 14 2's.

Does eveybody have a very small quantity of 1s?

I do...here is my breakdown:
7-5's
12-4's
9-3's
7-2's
2-1's
11-unknowns

Granted I do have a good amount of unknowns.

I invested $10000 last week (only been playing a week), and I got the following:

7 x 5's
8 x 4's
5 x 3's
3 x 2's
1 x 1

And a huuuge list (23) of -'s! But that's ok, I'd say that's pretty generous for one weeks investment.

Of the above ratings, 5 had grades. 2 A's, 1 B-, 1 C+ and 1 C-.

That seems like a lot of info for one week.

I agree. Especially for only 10K.......
could the prior owners investments carried over??? If there was a prior owner?

It must have, even if it wasn't supposed to. Some options I can think of:

1. The prior owners points carried over (i was told this didn't happen)
2. The scouting works very differently from what we understand in terms of distribution through the various levels.
3. The scouting is somehow wrong?

that is not the only explanation.

The other is that bots teams invest on scouting $10000/w. Something like this I expect is the answer.

Just an inkling because the number of players shown is 24 (8x3 i.e. the number of league games played) + 5 extras from somewhere else... not sure but there are weeks (i think just 1) were teams only get 1 league game.

I was under the impression that bot teams didn't scout, I've asked this before when trying to figure out how much to scout in my own team since I joined late in the season.

Is it only active teams that take part in the draft? I ask because it seems to me that if an A+ player is is in the default No.1 position (or just fairly high) then they would automatically go to a low finishing team even if it is a bot. In my series the lowest human managed team is in 6th place so theoretically it's that team that should get the first choice instead of the 4-5 bots who finished level or below in the series.

The player lists are randomized per team. Player 1 for you would be 12 for someone else and 37 for yet another team etc. My understanding is bots will choose the highest listed player in order when their turn comes up, regardless of whatever their ratings may be. So if you have an A+ player listed first in your list, it's still very possible he'll be available when your turn comes up if you have an inactive series.
