I guess it comes down to academies and talents but at a guess spec/wc/excep with excep power and field

Thank you crowie. That helps...

Wow, have there been many all rounders produced to that standard to date across the nation's? He would surely be in the top 1%.

[GM-crowfan65]

Not many, my lad will get there, the outs/outs Aussie AR will get to WC/WC/excep with spec power and field


Right now there is nobody higher then spec/excep/excep

player 1921313 this guy was probably the best of them
Just ahead of these two player 1943615 player 1935843
Floyd player 2036538 is the best at 27

Couple at 26 that need power and field to be top class
My lad at 23 is the best of the younger age group

The last one is easy, form plops and pops are the same as any other level of skill in the game 1000

It is model on fantasy pts which in turn is modelled on runs and wkts plus a few other things
Form for the most part is a gradual thing
3-4 really bad games or really good games and you will start to see some change
In the modelling the first player to hit top form or bottom form was about week 7-8 iirc

And finally yes it will be introduced during EOS as will min wage payments and MKMC increase of teams

Can we expect way more pops than plops? It seems 100 fantasy points is way more likely than 100 demerits.
How does a bowler lose fantasy points? I see batsmen and fielders can but I don't see how a bowler can?

Runs scored against (maybe special penalties for boundaries) and extras conceded?

[boscorp]

Fantasy points for the bowlers economy are only calculated with positive points unlike batting and fielding. I don't think there is currently any negative points accumulated for extras etc.

Bad economy rates then. The very first WC match I clicked on had a bowler with -20 and his economy was 11.xx No batting involvement.

[GM-crowfan65]

Thats right Cynic

[GM-crowfan65]

Also let me say that we can tweak the formula for fantasy pts if we need to as well
IT will be a good way for us to make sure that it is actually doing the job we expect it to

[boscorp]

My mistake. I didn't notice the economy rate penalty allows for up to -40 points for bad economy. I wasn't looking properly.

Sry if this has been answered and I missed it.
With the extra round added to MKMC, do you now have to make round 3 to get a payday or are the wonderful GM and administrative collective going to add, let’s say, $1.5m to the winner and just tack it on as another round, and just adjust the round numbers from quarter to rnd 8, semi to quarter, winner to GF loser then the overall winner with the $1.5m next to it.
ie pay bump for everyone....yeah that sounds like what our glorious leader and his merry men would do...cos you know there awesome and stuff....

[GM-crowfan65]

Thanks for pumping the tyres for us but at this stage no, the idea is you get a bit of gate- takings but like all change we will check to see how it goes and make a decision. Probably after next season when the draw is correct would be a good time to review.

[TM-Cyrus]

So everything moves a level and you need to make rnd 3 to get any prize money now?

[GM-crowfan65]

yeah, reminds me I should make a temp fix to the rules so people dont complain

[TM-Cyrus]

Good call, it was the reason I wanted clarification
