I have completed 35 seasons in my second run league in which I will apply this model for HOF inductions. I have been fired twice ( am currently jobless....won't be managing for a while).

Since I reached the point of inductions, it was finally the time where I HAD to go and do the work for the adjustments based on the RL HOF for this league, and the final analysis of the output.

I have all the RL HOFers entered (those whose entrances I used to determine the number of entrants in this league) into a spreadsheet and can make the true adjustments. Now, I am in the process of putting those adjusters into this HOF. I didn't plan on doing this when I started, so the process is not terribly efficient.

The new modifiers (old modifiers) for each category are:

Pitchers-
Black Ink 42 (40)
Gray Ink 210 (185)
HOF Monitor 164 (100)
HOF Status 49 (50)

Hitters-
Black Ink 26 (27)
Gray Ink 157 (144)
HOF Monitor 152 (100)
HOF Status 47 (50)

These new modifiers are the averages of the actual real life averages of the players that are inducted into the RL HOF. For the Babe Ruth and Bobby Wallace types who have both batting and pitching points in categories, I simply added them together and used that total to contribute to the average for pitchers or hitters, as applicable. So, Ruth's pitching points contributed to the hitting average and Wallace's batting points contributed to the pitching averages.

This is how I handled players in the OOTP world who had tallies for both pitching and hitting to determine their inductions.

I had commented previously that I found the HOFm numbers for the OOTP universe to be higher than expected. I later noted the phrasing on BBREF that indicated the 100 figure was not an average of the HOFers. As you can see from the new modifiers, there is a significant discrepancy between the old and new modifiers in this category. I am now confident that I will get a composite average close to 4 for the players inducted into my HOF, which is the composite average of the RL HOF using the new modifiers.

I was surprised by the discrepency in the Gray Ink modifier numbers. I thought the deviation from what I expected was caused by randomness. It wasn't.
