Under Team History/Finances it shows the 'average' for several things including Revenue and Profit. It takes the average of all seasons in the history of the franchise, however, there is only data for the seasons played in Mogul. This renders the averages meaningless.

I think that should be changed so that that data would be useful.

This still really bugs me. As the data displayed is completely useless.

As you can see in the first picture, there is no way that the 'average' revenues or attendence figures are correct.

The second picture shows why. It's averaging a bunch of 0's into the final number.

For people who are interested in fighting against the mogul engine to keep a balanced league being able to easily access and assess league attendance and revenue numbers is pretty important.

I think that mogul should only use the data from years played in mogul to compute the average in the team histories.

I think there is more going on in there than averaging a bunch of Zero years.

I have one custom made league which has gone 246 seasons. The league was equalized (cities) after about one hundred years. Also the league progressed from BM2009 to BM2010 at the same time.

There is only one Zero year (the base year).

The average attendance shows 275,123. I always thought there was a decimal point error since 2,751,230 seems about right in actuality.

Same with revenue since it reports 36.3 million when 363 million seems about right.

I have no clue about profit since there are positive years and negative years. However I tend to think it is wrong because it reports -225K. Since it is an average that means that I would have lost $55,350,000 over 246 years. I currently have $237,372,859 in cash and have abitrarily taken $400,000,000 out of my cash number so that it does not affect my attendance.

I might have suspected that the profit number excluded cash involved in trades but the difference is much too large to be that. Especially since one of my house rules is not to trade for straight cash.

Bump

I'd REALLY like to see two things happen with this

1) Make this data correct so it is useful

2) Make this useful data copyable to Excel.

Never paid much attention to this, but I'm seeing similar nonsense. Report as a bug.
