Oh, Junior!!!!!

The designation of Jr. (pre- AND post-patch) is being treated as a last name.

In one of my early games, there was a 1B named Bill Jr. Now, post-patch, I have a scout in my league with the name Frank Jr.

Do you have a screen shot?

What nationality?

I'd get a screenshot, if only someone would tell me how! I believe he's Canadian, since I am playing a Canada based major league, and I've already changed his name, but I can show you what it looked like at least!

Shoot, I just wrote up a nice file for battists concerning making a screen shot. Can't seem to find it.

Here is wiki:

To copy the screen to the clipboard, press the Print screen key (normally located in the top row on the right-hand side of the keyboard).

If you wish capture only the active window, press and hold the Alt key, then press the Print screen key.

You may wish to paste (Ctrl-V) the screenshot into a word-processing program, such as Microsoft Word, for inclusion in your document.

However, a standard image format is smaller and generally better for distribution. To save as an image:

Click the "Start" button (normally located in the bottom left of your screen), and then click "Run".

Type "mspaint" (without quotes), and press "Enter." This opens Paint.
Alternatively, you can go to (in Windows XP) Start --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Paint.

Press Ctrl-V to paste the screenshot. (In older versions of Paint, a dialog to resize the image may appear; click "Yes.")

Press Ctrl-S to open the Save As dialog box. Type a filename in the "File name" field.

For "Save as type," select either "24-bit Bitmap", "TIFF", or "PNG". ("GIF" and the other three bitmap types are often not suitable for full-color screenshots because they discard color information; "JPEG" is never suitable for screenshots because it blurs borders.)

Any update on this one, folks?

Haven't been able to replicate this one over here...

Might be related: In names.txt, we have these entries:

Jr.Murimi,1,19
Jr.,1,32

That second one would explain why Jr. turns up as a last name, and that first one is just weird.

This has been fixed, although I'm not 100% certain it will make it into Patch 2.

Nice catch.
