Similarly to others, I've thought about making something like this happen, but it always gets bogged down because I'm not patient enough to test. The recent conception I had was just to tie market size to the current population of the team's metro area (1 tick for every 500,000 people). NYC would get two teams and still get a 20 market size. Detroit would be 8-9 or so. All teams in league five would have a market size of 1. I wouldn't want to spend all that time manually adjusting, personally.

The other thing that's always given me pause about starting a save like that is OOTP's lack of detail for association tracking and things like that, and the fact that I'd have to manually assign teams to a Champion's League. I want to start a world, let it run automatically given the parameters I've set, and then jump in to play when there's some established history.

I've also thought about a hyper-regionalized pro/rel world, like in my home state of Michigan, with company teams from Detroit or other realistic stories like that, but I know that I would eventually want that level of detail across the country, which isn't feasible for me.

I guess I have to wait for Tm1861 to advance about 50 more in-game years in his Big Bang sim.
