That's correct.

...I suggest that you append their table number to be their nickname if not being used, and show that as part of the name on your screens and award points manually. ...
I think you and I are on the same train of thought. As a test, I have used the "nickname" field to enter in the "Team Name" of some individuals. Then, when I look at the Rankings or Seating Chart screens, I can clearly identify which players belong to which team. ...Now, if I can somehow get the scoring system to recognize these characteristics, that would be absolutely fantastic!
Perhaps in the points formula, if there is a way to distinguish each "table" and then use the internal variables (ie: rank, position, etc.) along with the "table" info, then we may be onto something. Oh well, this is a work in progress but I am encouraged to know that someone (Magic_fubu) understands what I am trying to accomplish. Thanks for your suggestions. -Al
