Also a big fan of obscure TC's w/ cool names - just to fill out the universe.
Look forward to this project!

I'm not guaranteeing "historical accuracy" either since I'm using the templates with a tweak or two, but I'm looking for cool names and trying for a mix of locations. Since most of the TC candidates in box rec have only a smattering of fights the templates come in handy since most of these guys have losing records against really poor competition. I am trying to verify the existence of guys I'm not finding in boxrec in another record source before converting the file into a "real" fighter.
As far as names go, I don't know if I'll ever beat Pappa Wood Alcohol. Couldn't resisit adding him even though I didn't have a weight for him or for his opponent.
If I find interesting looking guys that are better than the TC templates, solid one rated guys, I'm keeping a record of their name and boxrec info and will spend a little more time creating them at a later point. Right now I'm trying to rush, but the pace of the census is slow. The TC conversion is a bit of a break from the tedium of my census and database clean-up work. Hope to finish the complete project around the time that the new game is released since the new group and note features should simplify work with the planned universe.
