    I do have one question…it appears that someone traded AA in and got a C-level sire? My understanding was that if you exchange cards in, you would get at least that level or better. In that case, there was a drop in level.

    Overall, it appears that players have approximately a 20% chance to get a bump in the level of the trade-in value. Nice job!

      Thanks for catching that, it’s likely a mistake.

      Maybe CC for A and it was inverted or CC for C or AA for A.

      There shouldn’t be a possibility of a drop.

        I think that was my getting Forte–the “algorithm’ describes him as an A sire–he may get to A in the future, but he barely makes it to B at this stage

      Mystery solved, Glenmore thought he was being funny and marked his Forte exchange as AA cards for a C tier sire.

      I’ve corrected it to an A tier sire share.
