Some less than obvious things that can be done with a quickstart with history like this could be: marketing (look what the game can do!), playtesting (publish it before release, and watch the OOTP community pick it apart for bugs) documentation (nicer screen caps could be taken for use in manuals, how to's would be more clear), and advertising (Markus could post new feature screenshots without using copyrighted content of Major League Basbeall).
I mean if 1961 wins the vote, you start it in 1951 and sim 10 years to 1961.
If 1994 wins, you start it in 1984 and sim 10 years to 1994.
