2 questions:

Are 0 and 20 absolute hard caps?
-If I have a player with a low skill and a very low consistency, and he plays below average (due to consistency), can he have a negative value?
-The same on the other end, can a player with a 20 stat that has a consistency of 1 that plays better than average have above a 20 that game for that stat?

Are the physical stats that have hidden, predetermined limits (strength and speed) are they hard caps (cannot improve once you maxed out) or soft caps (subject to the X% chance to level once you have maxed up to 4 levels above max like in the FAQ for normal stats)

A to the person that answers this one

In other words, it is unknown. My belief, due to what I believe the programming behind the game is, is that 0 and 20 are hard caps.

But, I believe the examples from the second part of your question are soft caps...up to 20, which is the hard cap. But that's just what I believe...I didn't program the game.

I'd consider going 0-15 with 2 pics negative. Just a soda, I'm 11!

You can't go to 0 so 1-20 are hard caps.

No negative value is not possible, 1 is the lowest he can go.

20 is the max.

If I understand this correctly, speed and strength limits are soft caps until they're maxed out then they become hard caps

theoretically my answer becomes right due to the Admin clearing this up. Double drink obligation from shaft!

Actually, my answer was the most correct before the admin posted. I just didn't know that 1 was the low cap instead of 0.

So you were STILL wrong, as you said 0 and not 1 mate

this does bring the interesting situation up that low consistency players are CRAP when at really high levels. no chance to go above your stat but a chance to play %x worse
