Has anyone else experienced the following? In simming a season, at the end of the season if there are two teams tied they play one game to determine the division winner. However, the game simmed boxscore and gamelog is recorded as game #1, effectively overwriting the boxscore and gamelog for the first game of the season in the league. Thereafter, boxscores and game logs are recorded/saved in a similar fashion (game #2, game #3, etc.) for the playoffs and World Series, wiping out the boxscores/game logs for some of the early season league games.

Also, does the game automatically save the post-season and World Series boxscores/gamelogs by the same renumbering sequence (starts at game 1), regardless of the tie-breaker game? I hadn't noticed this overwrite problem before.

I haven't tried this yet, but I hope it will work as a workaround: If two teams are tied for a division lead, go to the saved boxscores/gamelogs and rename the boxscores/game logs as "1a", "2a", "3a", etc. to about boxscore/gamelog 25 or so. This (I hope) should prevent the overwriting problem for the tie-breaker game and the subsequent post-season.

Any comments or suggestions are appreciated.
