again if we cant train multiskilled players to 500k or more whats the point of the higher potentials


Potential does not directly depend on salary levels. You can still train an all time great to his maximum potential, although he just won't reach the salary he would have reached before.

you are confusing an issue here... when we started retuning the salary formula we broke the fixed relationship between salary and skill, meaning you can't say that a potential corresponds to a fixed cap in salary, because the conversion from overall skill to salary is being tuned season to seaosn (in fact that was never strictly the case but that is a simplification people have been using). ...potential caps are fundamentally on skill not on salary.

Salary is determined by market forces. It depends upon the player skill and the skills of everybody else in BuzzerBeater


Thank you so much for this comment as I think I have a much better understanding now that I understand that absolute skill sets have been decoupled from salary. How does that relate to the accuracy of salary calculators, however ?

Thanks Joseph and Charles for your reply. I will make a probably reasonable assumption that the accuracy of the calculator has some pretty interesting and complex reverse engineering. Although I am not quite sure how a static algorithm can predict the certainly dynamic changing entirety of the Buzzerbeater world. But I am very thankful for it :) and your entire spreadsheet Joseph.
