Voc and I were talking about his Heavy Hitters ROM and we decided to make a similar one to deal with the weight bug. Players have had their weights redistributed based on the amount of checking and aggression they possess. This will make players like Scott Stevens and Ulf Samuelson not worthless but be able to hit like they really should be able to.
The new weights were determined with a simple formula:
(Chk + Agr) / 2 = N
The new N value corresponds with an appropriate weight:
5 = 164 (Only 1 player, Ulf Samuelson)
4.5 = 172 (Very few players, I believe 5 or 6)
4 = 180
3.5 = 188
3 or 2.5 = 196
2 or 1.5 = 204
1 or .5 = 212
For example:
Jeremy Roenick has 2 CHK and 3 AGR. That gives him an N of 2.5. 2.5 = 196 lbs.
Richard Pilon has 3 CHK and 5 AGR. That gives him an N of 4. 4 = 180 lbs.
Pretty simple, but it really balances things out. A draft league with this ROM could be interesting, currently Voc is thinking about it. If anybody wants it I'll post it.
