True, but it isn't like it would be that hard for them to answer the question either

+1

The issue is that knowing this information makes a big difference in new dots created this season.....it doesn't bother me too much about my old dots. "Woo Hoo....an extra 2% on my skill that is already at 60+" is a lot different than "Woo Hoo...I trained my main skill to 34, so now I can assign my 15 creation SPs and hit the first soft cap before I have to boost."

Yup, and whilst it is pretty insignificant, it's annoying not to know and have it just be a lottery.

wondered this myself.

2 converts to 2 and 4 converts to 4, so 2 would be a safe number to keep I guess...

If we created players last season (s23) then when is the day to retire in order to get 100% payback on them?
Which day is the first day to build a player for new system (42?)

It's just the principle of getting a simple answer to a simple question about game mechanics... I realize this is a small thing and not trying to make a big deal of it, but that's the whole point... why not just answer the damn question? It's been 2.5 weeks since OP and we still can't get a definitive response (I've tried support as well but the person who was going to look into hasn't read my message the last few days).

Yep, and again: why not answer it? It's so obvious that some people are going to lose a couple of TP they didn't expect to, or have not spent TP today that disappear tomorrow, and will be mad about it, however trivial it is. Why not clear the matter up and prevent that happening?

So, will the new system be implemented after Day41-42 rollover?

Will we get our 2 TPs before the conversion or after the conversion?

You can only answer the question if you know the answer. Perhaps they don't know the answer.

Check my math on this but I think you are OK going in either way with almost anything other than 10 TP.


Say you have 8 TP right now. Alot of people are saying to light train in order to get to a point where you do not lose any TP and get BT to convert.

If you do that, you could light train 4 times and on an attribute at 20%, for example, would be 80% trained and have 12 BT.

The 12 BT will convert to 15 BT. (12 x 1.25).

That '8' on conversion would become 6 and allow you to light train on the new system 3 times.

The new training would be at 32% (1.6 x 20%) yielding 96% trained and 18 BT.


So -- still a win to wait.

But looking deeper. If TP is added before conversion, your 8 BT becomes 10 to be converted -- which converts to 8.
If after conversion, your 8 converts to 6 and then the 2 nightly is added -- giving you 8.


The place you do not want to be is 10 going in -- because if the TP is added first, 12 converts to 8. But if after, 10 converts to 8 and then the nightly takes it back to 10. So you run a 50/50 chance of losing if you do not train a Day 40 player once.

Or even trickier, if you have 8 today, multitrain 4 attributes and you get 2 tomorrow (converted or not converted you should end up with 2) wouldn't that be better than hoping that the 2 TP given out is before or after the conversion?

Actually, in terms in TP you are right.

But multi training 4 attributes today give 6 BT so twice would give you 12.

That 12 will convert to 15 tonight. (12 x 1.25)


Multi - training 4 attributes tomorrow gives you 12 BT (twice will give you 24)
