Re: [s-b] Multiple names, part two.

[Jeff Gitchel <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I was waiting for this. Are we going to find out what the "etc" stands for?

Request for CFI: what does the "etc" in Rule 46 encompass?

Arg: it stands for whatever you want it to stand for. It therefore means "the number of names a player may have." So, unless there's a Rule, a player is limited to the number of names they came in with.

CFI:  The player generally known as teucer has the name "Murphy".

Arguments:  Rule 46 says "No player's information (name, score, etc) may
be changed except as the rules explicitly allow."  Rule 47 says "A
player may change eir own name" etc., but no rule allows a player to add
names to emself.  Also, it arguably violates Rule 2 because "Murphy" is
my unique name, even if it would be a non-unique name for teucer.
