== Table Naming Convention ==
== Table Naming Convention ==


Tables are usually named in lower case, they use the underscore as a word separator and the first word is usually the name of the user that created the table or who owns the database. Most tables in the tgs database are called erro_X, because 'erro' was the user who made them. The last common thing is to always use singular. So 'user_reports' is not a good name, 'user_report' is. These naming conventions are there to help you down the road, so you will not be in doubt whether a table is called 'erro_players' or 'erro_player', etc. Examples: erro_player, erro_connection_log, erro_poll_question, etc.
