Player Nicknames:

Currently, managers have the option to add a "nickname" for their players. When a game is played and you watch the viewer, the name of the player comes up First name "Nickname" Surname. It seems to be too much and because some names are quite long, the event line isn't easy to read fast before the next event occurs.

My suggestion is that when a manger selects the nickname option, that this nickname replaces their full name in the viewer.

Not sure how easy it would be, but I think it might be 1) Easier to read length wise, and 2) make for a more fun read.

CURRENT example:

Moeaktola "The General" Dunn gets off a great pass to Kostya "Tszyu" Regis. Kostya "Tzsyu" Regis tries a driving layup.

PROPOSED example:

The General gets off a great pass to Tszyu. Tzsyu tries a driving layup.

Good suggestion. Or let us choose/ get us the option to choose what is displayed:

1) „The General“
2) Moeaktola "The General"
3) "The General" Dunn

If it is easy enough to provide options for a manager, then yes! If not, simplify it.

Sure. Would be nice but obviously not a „must have“.

The honest question here is... Are you still watching BB-lives?

The honest answer: yes! (Ok, not every game and sometimes only partially, but I still like the old browser-version…) 😉

To be honest I don't watch any game, but I do miss it. Times when you could go in-game chat... Good old times

Yes, that was great. Those good old times! But I don‘t have that mich time at hand any more, either. But I did watch today‘s
league game for quite a while (and was quite furious at the coach when he didn‘t insert the starters back in the fourth quarter, almost negating a 20+ lead…showing me that it might be healthier for my heart not to watch those games live 😉 But it turned out well, so all‘s good 😉)

I do...

Regularly.

Not all of them, but I am enjoying watching my rookies begin to improve.

So, changing how nicknames are displayed in the viewer would be a cool alteration.
