There's more support than I thought for rolling back the birthdates. Putting it to a vote seems like the most democratic thing to do, so I'll create a poll.
I'd prefer not to eliminate Freestyle Superstars as I feel it's something we can work with. I'd rather leave it up to the user to disable FSS if they don't want it, but I suppose we could do a version where that's already done. I'll keep that in mind since it's easy enough to do but I don't think FSS should be eliminated completely by the project.

The file rebalances the frequency of rookie names turning up, and also has 1000+ added names, mostly surnames. I have also tried to address the lack of names in some areas (especially Asia where the names became similar very fast).
In addition to this I have also updated birth town/country files.
Let me know if you would like me to make these available for you.
That definitely sounds interesting. Whatever can be done to enhance the game.

That would be a bit fiddly, but seems doable. It would be great if we could get it to work properly since we could also do a career stats update in addition to getting the right ages without editing birthdates.
