I also like that I'm able to give nicknames that are as minimal as Coop, Bart, Russ, Whit, Campy, Dino, Gil etc. Simple mutations of given names. This is what I've used it for mostly so far. But there are a few other nicknames that I never would have been able to do before. Like... Sam "I Am" Conners Kenny "Push" Pulliam Martin "Milo" Lopez Art "AR" Rowland (as in AR14, he's got a bullet arm) Peter "Dock" Ellis "Comrade" Boris Novikov Reid "Hard Out" Hardin Updated Thursday, June 9 2016 @ 6:58:53 pm PDT Updated Thursday, June 9 2016 @ 7:02:57 pm PDT Updated Thursday, June 9 2016 @ 7:05:30 pm PDT

Although he still hasn't figured out how to do air deliveries

Mine was Doc until now that I could change it to Dock. At one time I had my own SS Peewee Reese but unlike the real one, mine couldn't hit. Adding to my list in my previous post, I also now have Andy "Blitz" Krieg. Too bad he likes to give up too many home runs.

I now changed him to "Teach" This might sound like a downgrade, but it's actually a Tales of Legendia reference :x (too bad his real name wasn't Will...)
