CJ54 - Duplicate Faction Names in B4B Winners List

[SomersetGuy]

CJ54,

I don't think you saw my reply in your B4B winners list post. You stated that " "Dark Lords Of The Sith" is 708th. You guys are "Dark Lords of the Sith" in 3228. Faction names are one of a kind, but they are case sensitive (i.e. capitalization can be different)." I copied and pasted the top 6000 factions into Excel and sorted by name. This is the list of duplicates that I found:

I'm sure that these factions were set up before you guys put code in place to disallow duplicate names and that a lot of the I didn't get my rewards were caused by this. Is there a way that this can be fixed so that we don't have problems going forward?

I am a member of United States Marine Corp our invite code is 566036501 and we still would like to know where we placed.
