How about we get a decent RNG on this damn site? i'm telling you i'm sick of it. how hard is it really? pffffffft!!1!1!
seriously. all i want is a damn decent Random Name Generator!!!
(sorry did you think this was about dice? )
seriously though i was wondering if this feature was possible. are journeymens names randomly generated or is there a short list? if they are done by RNG could this be added as an option to the buy new player pop-up?
i realise most people here are creative but can't the dumb guys like me (who are also too lazy to keep switching back to other off site name generators) just be pampered? what else do i pay my fees for? |

IIRC the reason why none was implemented was because they want you to spend a minimum of effort in giving player names, or at least not actively support you in not doing so... |

i really hate it when people expect me to put in minimum effort into my own leisure time. they're seriously underestimating how lazy i am |

You could always name them 1,2,3 etc and then report them.
Some members of the staff use a RNG to generate the names.
Lorebass and myself have a little bit more fun with these though
Seriously though I do not recommend naming your players 1,2,3 etc |

To me the greater issue is that you can't enter a name without refreshing page.
So you'll end up spending several minutes with the refresh button. The time it takes to enter a name isn't really long but too fast clicking can even result in a double player bug.
It's hard to imagine that it would be that difficult to just offer a form where you can enter players among all 16 positions at once. This way you also wouldn't have to put a player on the next available position but could choose any instead. Much more fluffy. |

Someone needs to shut this down! There's absolutely nothing wrong with the random name generator. It's just the OP's perception bias! Get a life, you moron! |
