Easy feature to re-add
Playing in a 6.5 league I realize how much I miss this seemingly simple feature...

Please let gamers enter/edit nicknames for players. Its nothing major, but it helps me personalize fictional players in fictional leagues. Plus it can just be fun.

I think you can edit/enter nicknames in 2006

I think we can do that in 2007?

Hmm, I'll check.

Don't understand. You could do that in 2006 as the commissioner in the player edit mode.

EDIT: OK, I guess we established this was true for 2006; we'll wait for Raidergoo's verdict for 2007.

OK, but it was just a check option on the manager home page to go into commissioner mode; it's not like you needed a separate identity. In that case, what's the diff?

Hey, we're starting to think alike here. We already look alike (assuming your avatar is representative).

You're right. I'm starting to look like lewis31lewis52's avatar* now.

EDIT: * PeeWee Herman, before he changed it. Hopefully not on our account!

Even in commish mode, if it works at all like '06, you can't tab out of it. You have to hit enter for the "stick." But I defer to your judgment. You're the one looking at it.

Just tested this and as long as you are in Commish mode you can edit the nickname and it sticks no matter what, or at least no matter what I tried to prevent it from sticking. Enter, tab, back arrow, different drop down all do not prevent the nickname from sticking.
