Subject: Beginner question about attributes

I don't understand why my model (attached) isn't working.

I generated a scaffold for my 'player' data.  If I uncomment the
:validates_presence_of check in my model, the save on the 'new' page
compalins about those fields, and re-displays them without the data I've
typed in (along with the red surrounding and error messages, of course).

If I run the model as is, the save goes through, but none of the fields
except hashed_password get saved.  Or, another way to put it is, the
*only* field that gets saved is the one I set manually in the
before_create handler.

I don't understand what I did.  I haven't changed the generated view for
new.html.erb, the column names haven't changed in the database.  I don't
see what's missing to reconnect those elements.
