Hi.

I have been playing the OOTP games for several years now and I have to say that they are great. The one element that I have wished that could be added is the option to override historical transactions when doing a long term historical simulation.

For example, let’s say I want to play a Yankees simulation starting in 1982. The Yankees made some terrible trades during the 80’s. i.e trading Fred McGriff, Doug Drabek, etc.

If there was a historical transactions override where you could set the simulator to ignore or replace a trade with another one. I know people say that, the easy fix, would be just to run a simulation without the historical transactions. But doing that would create a completely different league as generally speaking the only thing that would have needed to be changed was a few transactions.

Just something maybe the development team could consider incorporating in the future. I think it would add significant enjoyment to the sim.
