Well, I talked to Christer about it some months ago when a similar problem arose. He said that it was a grey area, but in his oppinion we shouldn´t disallow historical correct names. That´s why I posted what I did. Maybe that has changed?

And yet, I whole-heartedly approve. I'm a bigger fan of the no swearing in forums rule, but in general am happy to play the game without risk of viewing/reading offensive material.

Uranus:

In British English the traditional pronunciation [yer-eh-nus] is giving way to a pronunciation with the stress on the first syllable [yure-ernus]. The US pronunciation is [yure-eh-nus].

Thus all this "schoolboy" humour will one day be lost to the Earth.

Sad.

Yes, it works. This has to be the least offensive, most family friendly internet game site that I've come across. It's a nice change.

I think the name Wuhan should be censored for crimes against innocent bb players.

I have a question about names.

Can I have a team where all the players have the same name?

For instance, I want a skryre team where all the slaves are just called "Slave". Why? Fluff. Rat slaves shouldn't have names.

Give them a fluffy bio and they might let you (there is a Malkovich Undead team all called Malkovich someplace). Giving them numbers too, and a bio and you'll probably be okay.
