Hello.

Like in the "Romanian Names" thread http://www.buzzerbeater.org/BBWeb/Forum/read.aspx?thread=... ... all slovak players have arab names, wich is NOT right. If you have problem with acquiring list of common slovak names and surnames, i can help you get those.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention. We'll correct the names shortly.

I believe we already have a good list of common Slovak names, but I'll let you know if we need any more. This is probably simply a typo in our name generation code that we'll be able to correct without a hitch.

One more question though...

We have a letter "č" in our alphabet, wich i did not see in any name, but in some of them, it would fit (instead of letter "c")

for example: in my team (58435), player (2367842) Katrencík would sound better Katrenčík for a slovak person, or (2367843) Kurca could be Kurča. (i can point more examples thoughout all our teams).

Finally, my quesion: is it possible to change these names to "proper" version? is it technical diffictulty that caused "č" not being displayed now? (sometimes database encodings can do unpleasant things ;] )

i know it's just a "cosmetic" change, but i felt like i should ask... thanks for reading this ;]

That is a character set problem common to all Slavic nations that have the letter C with a diacritic. I'm sure it will be fixed eventually.
