I'm not going to read all that discussion, seems like an easy topic. There is likely a variable somewhere that defines how often fights occur. The request is to give the user access that value so they can create whichever era they want.

I guess in my eyes I would put randomness in place that says x% of fights become line brawls and y% become bench clearing rock 'em sock 'em brawls. Then I would bump those percentages up a bit after every fight within a single game. That way a game with one fight is far less likely to have a bench clearing brawl than a game with multiple fights. If we wanted to have some real fun perhaps that percentage somehow carries forward from one game to the next to simulate how things can sometimes carry forward between to teams.

Just saying - doesn't matter how you want to play the game, just open the box a bit an give the user some control. Get carried away and you might be simming the QSPHL or the old Federal league from SlapShot. Just don't then complain about the goal totals being out of wack when you have 250 PIMs a game. [/rant]
