Whats in a name?

played a game with new characters of the same name
appearing later. was debated and decided that there
was a certain number of turns when the character is
still in the database (as "dead"..?) but then the 5
digit id is cleared for use again.

Baranor, Baranishnikov, Baranhisbestfriend.....

Meanwhile...why do allies have allied char's as
VC's anyway?

Baranor, Baranishnikov, Baranhisbestfriend.....

One way to annoy the DS is to name your chars after one that's been
killed, like Imrahil, Imrahil's avenger, Imrahil's son (or Imrahil
II), Imrahil's grandson (or Imrahil III)----->Imrahil's last cousine!

And regarding using your wife's name, I once accidentally used a team
mates's girlfriends name! He he... Imagine that Niels Just, your
girlfriend and a bunch of agents with no morals whatsoever camping in
the wilderness! :wink: I've at least managed to keep her alive for about
35 turns...
