So after I put in the totals and modifiers that are the same as 1923, what would I have to do in each future season to change the league as I see fit.
Also, what PCM's do I put in?
Very confused on this, which has hampered me many times in trying to create and run an ever-changing fictional league.
Would really appreciate any help!!!!!!

Part of the problem you face is that league totals simply allow OOTP to maintain somewhat the rate of occurrence of statistical output of the year in question. The available talent pool may or may not be the same as the real life players. It's still the best starting point.
You ask what you should do in the future. Only you can answer that because we cant read your mind. Another problem is that a shorter season may affect rest and injuries in such a way as to affect league totals. Put that aside for a moment.
I'm a little confused because you don't actually state what you want other than 1923, with shorter schedule and that you will make unspecified changes going forward. Are you going to have player development on? A draft, free agency, financials, full minors, a reserve roster, feeder leagues, international players, coaches and scouts, player morale, league evolution. Sorry but that's a lot of guesswork.
As for PCM's use the game default settings unless you have a really good reason not to.
Not sure this is helpful and no criticism intended.
