    Brief Description: lwc is dumb and making stuff up

    Instructions:
    1. Type "/cmodify" followed by some random crap ie "/cmodify $!@#REFwefwferer23"
    2. Click a chest to add it
    3. Successfully registers the fake name with some random UUID
    4. UUID does not belong to any player
    How many times did you recreate this bug?: a bunch

    Result: LWC pretends to know what it's doing

    Expected Result: LWC admits it doesn't know of such a player

    Evidence:

    Is there a formula to turn names into uuids? It'd be nice if it was checking them against somewhere!

    Maybe it's based on the original name of the account idk.

    But what if someone creates a new account with someone's old name?
