While we're in full clusterfuck recovery mode - there is an "unnamed" player whose second name and b-r.com reference code do not correspond. His B-R.com code reflects his original name (which he had until 2018), while his "new" legal name has a different letter (from 2018).
Should we:
(1) Use his original name / letter and actual B-R.com reference
OR
(2) Use the letter from the name that he now legally uses.
-----------
Personally I think (2) given the spirit of the rule and the fact that he legally changed his name.
Again, please comment.

Again, please comment.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

I need enough people to agree or disagree with this, or it'll be poll time.I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert...

That's 6 for 2004 and nothing for the alternative. So let's just continue and be vigilant with the spreadsheet classification until I get it updated.
AND ... the Ranking sheet I published earlier is showing 1999-2005 also in case anyone is using that for sorting / ranking etc

I mean since no one else has picked and Jake already received the benefit of Zimmermann, we could classify EE as "contemporary" and let Jake repick if he wanted. Of course it doesn't make any logical sense from a consistency standpoint, but at least in terms of fairness it doesn't give Jake two extra picks that most of us would've valued higher.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it.
