One Small Change
by raidergreg69 @ 9/12/2019 7:19 am
I don't know if anyone besides myself cares, but I changed the uniform # rule. We used to have restricted numbers based on a player's assigned position, for example OL only had numbers in the 50-79 range. Way back in the day, I had wanted to give Fluty #22 but QB's weren't allowed numbers higher than 19 and he couldn't be made a RB so he could have #22.

Now, any player can have any number.

Is there a rule to guide the spelling of a player's name?

I have no control over the spelling of the MFN generated names but our naming machine is set to allow names not in the database. Gotta keep the names clean though.

I was just curious why his name isn't Flutie

The first year or two of this league we had the database limitations in place. I had asked tribewriter to switch year 2 or 3, and he did, provided I didn't let Booger know.

Personally I don't mind whatever, I'm hard to offend. Ben Dover seems harmless and nobody complained about this guy https://ufa.myfootballnow.com/player/4095 in UFA. If you don't click the link, his name is Hugh Jass.

That's probably about where the decency line is drawn.

As long as I don't get any complaints, or pm's from JDB, you can name them anything without curse words. Hugh Jass sounds bad but looks fine in the play by play.
