flanman, There are a long, long list of factors that could impact or influence statistical results. The year of your association (remember, in the past, 50+, 60+ or even 70+ HR seasons were not normal) will play a role. Which parks you used (accurate parks tend to generate more accurate results) also has an effect. Sometimes too, just plain randomness will make an appearance-- it's a simulator, not a replicator-- you won't get perfect results each time. In a 14-year fictional association I play, it wasn't until the 3rd (or 2nd, I can't remember) year that someone broke the 50 HR mark. Currently our record is only 57.
