I’ve definitely noticed that when I’m playing 5-6 teams at a time that some sessions I’ll have 4 out of 5 or 5 out of 6 teams play extra inning games or there will be 4 shutouts out of six games etc. It’s all random, there’s at least hundreds of thousands of games simmed on this site a day and sometimes weird results happen. You’re not being “targeted” or anything like that.

never said it was, my question, if you had bothered to read it, was does this happen to other people on the regular. i will take your "advice" for what is it worth, which is well.... nothing.. thanks for stopping by.
It's worth about as much as your "observations"

The funny thing is, if these strings were 7-2 instead of 3-6, you wouldn't have a problem with it.

Let's say you flip a coin 3 times, and do that a whole bunch of times. 1 out of every 8 times, it'll come up heads heads heads. Another 1 out of 8 times it will come up tails tails tails. So 2 out of 8 times, or 25% of the time, you'll have something that looks like a definite trend but is in fact just random variation.

Sometimes randomness doesn't look random. That doesn't mean it's not.
