For some reason, in my surivvor pool a few people did not use their main entry to make picks, but they do have clones with picks.  So I have the weird situation where a player and his clones does not show up on the "player accounts" page.  

 

I'm a little afraid to change the main entry from Inactive to either Active or Out of Lives.  Is that the only way to make this work so they show up (and I'd have to make one entry inactive to have the money owed correct), or is there a way to make a clone the main entry?

 

Thanks.

Hi Stuart,

There isn't a way to make a clone the main player, but you shouldn't have to. Can you let me know the name of the player who isn't showing up on the page but has active clones? This is something we should fix for you.

Well, I checked the software and we do only show the active parent on that page, then its clones. If you set the parent to out-of-lives,  it will include the player in the total player count. Let me fix the accounts page to get around this problem. Probably have it ready tonight.
