Would have to search, but I think Pstrickert gives some settings that work for real lineups/real transaction replays.

It would just be so cool if the game simply displayed the best option. User's could still use their own if they choose to do so. I agree 100% that it shouldn't be a one time option. If we know we made a mistake, starting over sometimes isn't the fun thing to do.
Yep, you nailed it... There was some discussion about exactly what you describe for the adjust/weaken settings. Pretty sure the manual itself say that defaults of 300, etc... are not recommended for historical replays. So why not have that default change to some other number if we're doing a historical replay? I think - but do not know for sure - that the developers would be open to this suggestion, but when it was discussed before I don't think we ever came to a conclusion about whose recommended settings should be used...

Personally, I'd be fine with Garlon and pstrickert getting together and coming up with recommended settings based upon 1-year, 3-year, 5-year and whatever else... and going with that... Can't see how that would not be an improvement.
