8 | Before today I had never made repairs to my academy and over the last two and a bit seasons it had dropped right down to worthless. | ||
9 | |||
10 | So as I had saved up 100 ITS to use today, I decided that instead of just upgrading from worthless to superb as quickly as possible, that I would stop after each upgrade and record the number of ITS that I could allocate at each level and for each age group. | ||
11 | |||
12 | The results of this research can be found in the table on the following sheet. | ||
13 | |||
14 | The table shows the starting condition of my academy (worthless) and then the status after each of the 11 upgrades required to get it to superb. | ||
15 | |||
16 | On the table, there is a column that I have labelled sub-levels. As we know, each upgrade is slightly less than one level*. This column attempts to show the approximate sub-level after each upgrade. | ||
17 | *Note: Since this study was done, the rate of academy improvement has changed. Each upgrade now gives exactly one level of improvement. | ||
18 | |||
19 | For example, my academy started at worthless and after one upgrade it was still worthless. This happened again at strong. This indicates two key findings for my academy: | ||
20 | |||
21 | # That the starting position for my academy was 1. I'm not sure, but this may be as low as you can go. (If it was any higher than this, then I would not have been able to have two upgrades at Strong). | ||
22 | # A single repair upgrades by just under 0.9 of a level - ie it is 0.89999999 etc of a level. On the table I have rounded to two decimal places but the pattern is the same when using more decimal places. | ||
23 | |||
24 | Also, if you try to do another upgrade after reaching Superb, you get a message saying: | ||
25 | |||
26 | Your youth academy is already in superb condition, which is the best that it can be. | ||
27 | |||
28 | So I found this to be a very interesting exercise and I hope that my recording of this information proves to be of some use to others. | ||
29 | |||

31 | Note: zinc carried out the same exercise at the same time, although his academy started from a high level of Abysmal. His findings are also recorded here. | ||
