Otherwise if they are before the player it appears correct like this.

If a person signs up for an event and then they go back and change their main character name or alternate name, it will pull the information from the previous person because there isn't any information updated for them yet. As an example:

• I have Drabin, Tyllarik, and Luttiano as my Main, Alternate1, Alternate2.
• I signup for 4 events with Drabin.
• I go into my usercp and swap my main character out to Angello.
• If I visit the calendar, Drabin is signed up but there isn't any information for him because he is no longer listed in the armorydata table.
• The only way to update the information is to signup with Angello, in which case Drabin is completely removed and replaced with the correct main signup name.

This is not a bug but rather an underdeveloped result of the newness of the armorydata features. The only way it occurs is if someone is signed up to an event that never had armorydata pulled. In the interim, the easiest solution is to make sure you uninstall the product and reinstall the product when upgrading to any version that introduced the armory data and alternates system (i.e. version 1.1.3 upgrading to 1.2.6 you would have to do this) and re-edit the events and force new signups if you have a lot of events already signed up to. The second easiest solution is to tell your members to visit "any event" - even events they haven't signed up to and it will forceably update the information.

As a new feature, I'm working on a way to manually update all currently signed up names via an admin button for certain groups. This would ensure that you could forceably fix any db issues right away, without having to wait for members to come visit.

This issue should not occur for "most people". It usually occurs for people who upgraded from a very old version to a very new version.
