I am not in the IBC playoffs ... no surprise.

I am retired and have some extra time to address this issue ... after I finish preparing for winter (stack fire wood, clean gardens, plant bulbs, etc.) I will even more time.

I would happy to work on this if provided instructions. I know some others (though they may have have as much "free" time as I do and will) who would also help.

Yeah it is an issue. I did wait out the 24hr waiver period before signing White and chose to sign the non 0 version so the other one could eventually be deleted. There are a ton of duplicates and I have no idea how to get rid of them, but am also willing to help.

Not complaining about the signing Ken ... M. White was/is just a good relatively recent (easy visual) example.

I didn’t think you were complaining about the signing. It was a good example.

By the way, White tied a Seasonal Statistical Record for my franchise this year allowing 37 HRs ...

Can we expand access to delete duplicate players, even just clean up the Player List in OOPSS in general? Seems like it keeps coming up, might be good if everyone in ExCo had access so we'd always have someone available to fix duplicates as they happen and clean up the Player List.

Since cleaning up the duplicate players and player list in general seems to be getting no traction at all for some reason, can we check if there is a way to make the search function for players a little smarter so typing in a name gets you all results that include that language (i.e. jr etc)? I am sure there is some IT language for what I am saying, keyword search or something but I am more than IT illiterate so trying to get my point across.
