The background is that by now I've gathered enough information for identifying most important attributes for DCs, DLs and GKs for not conceding team goals. I also have a fairly good overview of which attributes are needed for FCs to score goals (GPG).
The second thing I've done is to sort all players in Voller based on these attributes, screen grabbed from FML, and used OCR to get all the data into a SQL database I set up.
So there we are. On one side I know the weighting of attributes, on the other side I have the actual player data from Voller. Perfect.
By combining the data, I've got a weighted list of best players in Voller for each respective position. I've now started purchasing some of the top (cheap) guys based on my weighted list. So far I've bought two DCs and three FCs.
Well, my FCs are technically not FCs. They are 2xDMs and 1xAM. They still came quite high up on my FC GPG-test though, so I think they will do quite well even though they play in a bit of an akward position.
The results so far, including where the players rank in my weighted GPG system:
My target man FCC (AM - £26k AF - 63rd) has scored 1 in 7 matches
My poacher FCL (DM - £35k AF - 170th) has scored 4 in 6 matches
My poacher FCR (DM - £16k AF - 120th) has scored 3 in 6 matches
More to follow on my progress. I don't expect to build a top team by playing DMs as strikers and there are still many players out there better than mine. But I do think my team will end up stronger than many others, plus I'll get the bonus of a much lower wage bill..
Come have a look at my team in Voller. It's called Golden Retrievers.
How do you make these databases ? :)
ReplyDeleteShort version: Screen grabs with timer, crop images, OCR, import to MySQL.
ReplyDeleteWhat program do you use for OCR? I've tried a couple different ones but none work to the point that I have workable data.
