The concept of training centres may have changed, but the implementation obviously hasn't. Gateway has no training centre you can click on. That is where the Chrome training interface is accessed.

Therefore you cannot set Chrome training from Gateway.

Or perhaps it's a wild conclusion to think all the other factors for our two gangs are equal...

Very nearly every member of my gang trained 2-3 points more 4 weeks ago versus the last 3 weeks...

All my gangers in the past 2 weeks who I paid chrome for performed 5 points better than previously.

Sounds great if you want to spend chrome every week. We were just commenting on the steep drop in the subscriber based training that coincided with its price increase. Based on Sam's comments that wasn't even intended... But there it is.

Is that with 10CHR or 5CHR? For 10, it seems somewhat to be expected assuming the gangers are in the upper half of training form.

The way training works at the moment, paying CHR will always get you better training for that ganger than not paying CHR. The questions is how much better, since at the lower end of training form, it may not even be enough to be noticeable in whole numbers, while at high training form it can more than double it.

I've already said my piece on why I think CHR should result in set amounts of training which fall somewhere within the DW$ Premium spectrum. It would make CHR training a way for non-subscribers to get training, while still being something a subscriber might choose to do if/when they have someone in bad training form or want a consistent training as opposed to the variable training which can occur with using a training center for DW$.

The way it is now, anyone wanting the best training for their gangers has to be paying 10CHR.

I noticed this before the addition of chrome.  I noticed it when he said he was flattening the variability, but I had 4-5 people getting 8 points in drive or mech in SS, TX and SF, so it was very noticeable when they dropped to 3-4 points.  I am kind of wondering if training form randomly resets when Sam makes changes to the code.  Would explain some of the more abrupt changes I have seen.

I am only spending 5 Chrome, I spent 10 Chrome on one ganger in week 1 but he only got a few points and it didn't seem a useful expenditure of a limited resource.

That might explain it... if guys who'd been training with a motivator 9 for months were all pegged at max training form and they suddenly got reset to 'zero'...

For me the training on Sep 5th (sam announced changes later that day) had a lot of the expected 3-5's with driver/cyclist (in SS) getting up to 7, and the training on Sep 12th and 19th was 0-3 with some driver/cyclist (in SS) getting 4.
