No Friction – Bad Earthquake

So, results were discarded previously when they were against one of those hard-coded limits of the simulation?

It's kind of funny, because if a simulation produces some results, I'd expect it to be analyzed, and eventual odds would result in new discoveries or in optimizations of the model with input parameters being better analyzed.
