Card Names

[Bob Sneidar]

Yup. Cards with no name... well... have no name. LC is faking it. I'm trying to think how this would be useful, but I cannot. I think cards are the only thing this happens with. Odd huh? Wanna know what is even odder? If you delete the 2 in the name, then type it back in again, it now has a name.
