Think of ActiveRecord as magic. It constructs the class and all
attributes from the DB at runtime. When working with ActiveRecord
never use attr_accessor and its like for DB attributes. Also, always
use the automatically created ActiveRecord accessors, eg name = "1234"
rather than @name = "1234".

I suspect that player might be used by ActiveRecord, try using
new_player as the variable name instead.
