That was my suspicion at first because only a couple of people had the problem. This time I know of 5 who had problems and 2 who didn't. I ziped up the full league file and that solved the problem, but it is very time consuming on both ends.

We are on 2007/8 and the current patch level.


My only "guess" is that it has something to do with the names.dat file. When I look at the CSV files you can see references player ID in several places. If these got out of sync somehow, that would explain the results being seen. It has to be in the export, because if they go back to a provious version (I always keep one posted on the site) and then import, then problem still exists.

There are two possibilities as I see it. The export is partially bad or someone's import corrupts the information and that is pushed back out via the export. The game never indicates any errors, so you are led to believe everything is fine.
