Once you strike the balance, you can take those prized possessions with you. I won't question that unless it starts happening every game or something.
But ever since sliders became a thing, I began having fun in authenticity. Back in the day, you wouldn't want to know how I liked to play sports games, but basically even if I beat my opponent 100-0, I wouldn't care (and yes, I'm talking about baseball video games haha).
I've scored so many runs on games in MLB 99, that I lost. That's right, my run total turned negative! I think it was after scoring 128 runs or something like that. It has to do with computational storage (and powers of 2).
