Market Size movement? - Page 2

Sorry, didn’t know there was a rule on how many could be in each group.

Agree, I would move WAS down a notch. They are not a larger market than STL.

On CIN, the issue I have is their market is better than TB. Likely better than MIA. When the Reds win, that town is baseball nuts. I know this is only market size so maybe the modification should be in fan level, not market size. I get that.

End of day, it’s your list and I think it’s pretty good as is. Would definitely recommended the STL/WAS switch, then just leave the rest. Good job.

you have an average of ~6.x mkt size... you could lower one and be fine without increasing one. i think the game does strive for some balance over time.

usually a ~5-to-6 average exists in any long-term run i've done after natural forces take over. i also start aroudn that figure, so may be my own doing too. i have not fleshed it out completely and guessing a bit on details.
