Steroid Influx?

I'm just wondering if I basically screwed myself or maybe there's a way to fix this.

I set up a 24-team league, starting it in 2004, but I imported Strategies & Financial settings for 1977.

I ran 2 seasons of play. Top HR hitters had hits 30-35 home runs.

Pre-season 2006, I was examing the Game Setup and I was considering the checkbox for "Automatically adjust league totals modifiers after each season for historical accuracy" -- I clicked on it and it seemed like something changed on the page (not sure what). I unchecked it and moved on...

Entering August 2006, the top HR hitters are current in the 40-50 HR range.

Would something change because I checked and unchecked that box? Is this just the invasion of steriods into my league? What's happening (and can I fix it)???

Thanks for any advice.

I *think* what happened was that the game recalculated the league totals so that they would track the actual stats for 2006 when you checked the box. Unchecking it didn't do anything at that point. I think you can reset the league totals after the season, but your 2006 season is going to look a little odd, going forward.

Actually...you may be using 2006 era style stats for the rest of that leagues history unless you change it. I would consider modifying 2007s values to your desired values(1977?) and checking that box again.
