I wanted to implement the GECK not to feel guilty about the teams' stadium pictures being full of grass. I was hoping to play more with OOTP 21's ballpark editor and actually added this story from the beginning of planning out the dynasty.

For the actual GECK in game, even the lore does not seem to have a full grasp of what it is supposed to be. I guess that's why we don't truly see it in action (at least, I don't remember). It is more like a MacGuffin in the game, it seems.

In this Fallout 4 AU, I want everything to be potentially dangerous: a drink at a bar, a swim, opening a can of Cram, operating a GECK. There will be a roll of the dice or a random number generated for every event, so someone might die with these mGecks, though as far as I have heard from the Institute crew, none of the test models ever exploded a human into a Harold or another event, so the 0.199% chance of death will likely keep all operators safe.

That's good logic. TBH when you mentioned a while back the attendance numbers were a bit wonky I thought about mentioning messing with the ballpark editor (though it'd take time to do *all* the teams) as a way to actually cap attendance, if the parks actually had a max. Though, if every game is a sellout, I'm not sure if that's what you'd be going for either or if that counts as "solving" the problem. Never got around to making that comment though.
