It's weird. I sincerely doubt that there is some hidden factor that makes it harder for human teams to win in the playoffs (or at least I hope there isn't), but it's hard to ignore all these anecdotes. Is there anyone with a dominant team that is consistently winning in the playoffs?
If you check earlier in this thread, I speculated that the morale system was a suspect. When I turn morale off I can win 3-5 WS in a row. In fact it is so easy it's boring. With it on I won a couple (none consecutive) over 10 seasons, but never like a dynasty.

I suggest that when posting multi-year results that people indicate morale on or off as I strongly feel that it has a big effect on the results.

On the question of playing style, I sim the regular season rapidly and play out all playoff games.
