A few words about Basketfox 1.20.9

Recently, I updated Basketfox to version 1.20.9 with some interesting changes.The update log can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/basketfox/wiki/UpdateLog and the download (for those who don't update automatically) can be done from here http://code.google.com/p/basketfox/downloads/list. 

One thing that was bothering me lately was to know how many weeks each youth team member has without having to sit down and calculate with my head. Once I built the season calendar (notice the S16, W7 by your team's name on the top left corner?) it was easy to calculate the maximum remaining weeks so if you go to the page of a player from your youth team you will see in orange his remaining training weeks.

Another important feature is the prompt to submit your training data! I know that it looks a bit funny but your data are more than needed to have a clear image about how fast our players train. The plan is to gather enough data so the inaccuracy of WR does not affect us any more (remember? we used to have exact WR with the previous forumla!). Up to now, only in a few days of operation I have gathered more than 300 players data but we need more data! That's why the submit button is located in a way that with two clicks you can submit your data and help BSGoodies. With future updates I will keep you posted about these results. Let me remind you that this is a continuation of this effort a while back: http://bsgoodies.blogspot.ch/2011/09/call-for-training-data.html. Back then it was really difficult to gather data and in fact only a handful of managers copied-pasted all their team's data, which lead me to think how I can help this process. So, that's why I came up with an easier way to submit your data through the "Submit" button! Let me finish this paragraph with a big Thanks! to all managers who support my effort!

I would like to finish this post by mentioning the last cool new feature of BF 1.20.9 which is the maximum differences in a match report. If you see the entire report of any match you will notice a new box on the right hand-side entitled "Max differences". There you can see the maximum difference each team managed during the game (and if there several times that a team had the max difference, you see the most recent).

Enjoy BasketFox and, again, a big Thanks! for your support!
