PlanetCricket Premier League 3 - Discussion Thread

Yea, I've realised that too. Actually, that was the reason I sent myself in at 3. To see if I could stick tailenders early up and let them get out, and then let the main batsmen score runs...

Still some work to be done on the sim by KI, and now we have a bit of a break to do the average upgrades, so maybe he'll get some tweaking done now.
 
I think another problem could be the aggressiveness of the nats, I mean TT have Tier A nats but there aggression is like 94. Which obviously means they are going to be overly aggressive and are more likely to get out earlier? No?
 
Maybe. All KI told me is that Aggression + Skill give a total value of how good a batsman is. He won't tell me anything about how the sim works. I had to go by mostly guesswork and the few clues he left me when coming up with the averages.
 
I appreciate the feedback. This is the first full fledged league that CS09 has been used in, and therefore the first time I'm seeing it in mass action and real time scenarios. CS09 is also the first such project I've undertaken, so I feel no shame in acknowledging any problems / bugs / irregularities in the sim.

We've talked about some of these and I'll be looking into solving these in the break we now have between the matches. Keep the feedback coming, however it is, so that I can fix them once and for all. :)

I feel that if you'd have kept option of Average and Strike Rate options in place of Skill and Aggression while creating teams, It'd have been out standing and I reckon now its too late complaining it as everything is now based on Aggression and Skill.
If you can fix it, your sim will be the one crossing the older sim (By Syedur Rehman).

Would hardly make a difference to the gameplay, regarding to what player attribute I accept from the user. Anyways, Strike Rate and Average are two things that are actually calculated on career performances, and not feeded in the program. I'd done a lot of research and only came out with the result that Ability and Aggression are the main two parameters which define a batsman / bowler in terms of overall skill.

Thanks anyways. :)

Anyways, I think VV's positioned nicely in the table and we still stand a very sound chance to be in the finals, we're only 2 points away from the second place and our NRR is going pretty strong as well.
 
On what basis is the money decided in the popularity thread?
 
Average ranking of the two teams playing in the match. So a match between the two most popular sides will draw more cash than a match between the two least popular sides.
 
Yea, I noticed it as I was starting the third thread. It's changed now. DD vs. VV, Beijing vs. Man D, and CC vs. TT coming up...
 
They'll be coming as soon as Shalin gets them done. I mentioned this in the announcements thread.
 
Hello, I'm Simon, I used to run this competition but due to University etc. It seems to have become Zorax's lovechild!

I just thought i'd pop in and say hello, and assure you guys that currently behind closed doors (to some of you atleast) we are discussing this whole "cheating," allegation stuff. Personally I don't feel there is foulplay but if people do, then its our job to sort it out. Keep checking back to see whats being done.

As always, Enjoy the rest of PCPL, you'll probably not hear from me till towards the end now,

Simon.
 
Dont worry, there isnt any foulplay going on...ehehehehehehe...ehehehe... Yet we still lose..
