Historical database issues go here

The database has a handful of early 20th century players with first names that you really don't want appearing in the game. These guys have real first names that you could easily use instead. List in the link below.

We'd fixed most of these up, but looks like two were left. Fixed them both now.

I'm sure this is going to get fixed at some point, but since it's a fairly prominent current player...

Rob Refsnyder is listed correctly as being born in Seoul, but the country is listed as the US instead of South Korea.

It's actually correct in the db as Seoul, South Korea as a city of birth. The US flag means he is given primary US nationality and a secondary ROK nationality. Per wikipedia: "Refsnyder was born in Seoul, South Korea, and was adopted by a couple from Southern California when he was five months old." I have no idea which he would regard as "primary" but he is shown in-game as a dual-citizen, which mostly matters for WBC kinda stuff.

That's odd, because when I open up Master.csv in Excel from the recently posted patch, it shows "The United States" in the birthCountry field with "Seoul" in both birthCounty and birthCity. Importing him into an existing game in OOTP26 shows him with Nationality American and no Second Nationality with a blank City of Birth. This is all in Build 70.

It is because "birth country" isn't actually a field. It's all tied to together when you select the city from the available options. The output for that column is likely "Nationality". Surprised the 2nd nationality doesn't show though. It's easy enough to reverse them if that allows both nationalities to show.

I can reverse them and see if it likes that better. The most important things is that he gets eligibility for leagues/teams with both of those nations. I'll dig into it after work

fwiw, in a standard game has the second nationality as South Korea, but the city of birth is still unknown

Maybe cause it's Seoul and his first nationality is US?

I can flip them. That should align it,

Not the biggest deal but Pretzels Getzien is listed as Pretzels Getzein in the game... just a small typo. id is getzie001pre
