HOF Monitor Bug

[Hal_10000]

I've discovered another slight discrepancy between my calculations of the HOF monitor and OOTP's. I'm still trying to pin it down and have come up with a possible candidate. There is a 15 point bonus for a player who piles up 1500 games as a middle infielder or catcher while maintaing a .275 BA. The game seems to have missed this with one of my players who has 1483 games at second ... but also 309 games at short. Does the game combine 2B/SS/C games or just take the most at one position? Thanks.

We go position by position for the calculations, so in your case unfortunately the player would have missed the bonus by a handful of games.

Also, our calculations attempt to follow the standard rules, however there are cases where we deviate slightly, for various reasons, mostly to account for leagues of varying schedule lengths but also based on what information we have readily available. Our numbers will generally be close to what you would get off of BB-ref, for example, but may not always line up.
