- Period base: playoff OT escalates indefinitely (P4=600, P5=750…), reg season P4=5-min OT (600), P5=shootout (700) - Time priority range increased (max ~300 vs old ~120), calibrated to period length so 5-min reg season OT reads correctly - Matchup multiplier inverted: higher period = less weight (any OT is exciting regardless of teams) - Replace unconditional score_total with closeness bonus: rewards tight games regardless of goal volume (5-4 == 1-0 at same diff) - Power play bonus: 30 (P1/P2) → 50/100/150 (P3 by time) → 200 (OT) - Comeback bonus: one-time pulse (+50/75/100 by period) when trailing team scores to within 2 goals; keyed on team names, clears after firing, skips intermission Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
