this is related to the recent game engine bug ... which wasn't actually a game engine bug at all. What it was was this... There was a bug in the new team creation code, that forgot to reset the default depth chart for abandoned teams. And so, if someone signed up for a team but never set their depth chart, they had nobody on the depth chart.. and so all the players that played were lucky fans... this caused the GE to crash in some weird cases when two teams of all lucky fans met.. and do wierd things such as this when only one team had all lucky fans.
this bug has been fixed.. and no more further games will be simulated in this fashion.
forrest
