Would like to add playoff stats as an option to view in the player records section.

It'd be nice, but they are quite limited on the space required to expand on the things they store for 200+ worlds.

How do you know that?

<cough><bullshit><choke>

Lets say that there are 200 records to be maintained (way high).
For each record, you need a player name, team name, and value. Lets say thats 100 characters of data combined (again, way high).
And you have to do this for 200 worlds.

200 records * 100 characters each * 200 worlds = about 4 MB of disk space. Add in extra space for indexes, future growth, whatever... its still a miniscule amount of data.

In WIS' defense, they tend to only roll over 3-4 worlds a day, and claim that this is a very processor-intensive process. If thats the case, the overhead from adding this extra process might be more than they're willing to take on. But its certainly not "space."

Maybe that is more accurate.

I have seen them reject these types of ideas repeatedly due to some sort of limit. 

If it isn't space its something like what you describe.
