Okay. But if you only seek to maximize SCORE there are many BC, PE, IC results to consider. Is there some type of qualifier? For instance the HiLO is 970 BC and 511 PE 760 IC. Should one never go below those figures? Because you can. But it may be a more volatile game. Hard to determine from Sims alone. Thus why I'm asking tough questions on a forum.
Moses, don't buy into that nonsense that higher SCORE equals less variance or volatility. That is some of the nonsense that T3 has pushed for several years and it is just not true. It has been thoroughly debunked by Don Schlesinger.
RS_ is completely correct, in my opinion. There comes a point that maximizing SCORE just is NOT worth the additional effort. It is a classic exercise in "diminishing returns". You put in XXX amount of extra work, for a very tiny benefit. Just not worth it in most cases.
