Why does the HR counter zero itself after hitting 255 HR in one season...
-
Because you are supposed to change the difficulty.

I upped the difficulty and I've still got 38 homers through May. Yet only 67 RBI. Shows you how dog water my team is at getting on base (Oakland)
-
It is rooted in the use of hexadecimal code to count and store numerical values. The Hex code based numbers roll over after 255.

That's not what I asked but thanks anyway.. I don't think the difficulty has anything to do with the home run counter zeroing once it gets to 255

Priorfir is right.
It is a limitation of how they store the number internally. The question comes up multiple times every year because it has been that way probably since the beginning.
Several of us speculate that SDS does not change it as a way to incentivize people to up the difficulty and play a little more realistically. I don't necessarily agree with them but it is what it is.

You specifically wanted to know why the HR counter reverts to zero after 255, and I answered that specific question factually. How on earth can you then claim it was not the question you asked?

I think he was replying to theBlindRhino since he mentioned difficulty

Fair enough, thanks!
