Renaming Clones

Post by false9 »

We've had a few instances with the college draft files that have resulted in clones. Off the top of my head, there had been clone Ted Adams, Douglas Barber, and Barrett Reyes. I know some GMs have been burned in UFA with this, as well as recently with uhhhhh a GM recently who shall remain nameless (but is totally a great guy). What I'm proposing is pretty straight forward:

Give commissioner (or volunteer) authority to rename these guys- whether it's flipping their first and last name, changing their first name to Clone, or whatever unique generic name they see fit. The only reasoning I'm throwing volunteer out there is I don't know how much of a PITA it is to edit these files; hell I'm willing to do to this if it is cumbersome work.

Thoughts?

Oh, I totally agree with you. I'd love to help volunteer to help rename clones! I've always been pretty good at that, ever since the good ol' days of NBA 2k. lol

Not to add on to the commishs duties but this is a rather quick and easy thing to rename a few players. I doubt it requires paying someone. At least I don't think it does. I think the commish "group" can handle this.
