Making a request to `PUT /runs/{id}/players` always returns 500 #119

I tried a bunch of different ways of sending my request, but whenever I make a request that seems fully valid to me I get back 500 Internal Server Error.

Is there something wrong with this endpoint?

Are you trying to submit runs on behalf of another user? If so, i think this is a duplicate of #87. Currently, a workaround is to submit the run, unverified, on your behalf, via the API and then manually edit the player name on the site.

I'm not trying to do that. I'm writing an API wrapper and I was simply trying to test the endpoint. No matter if it's on an unverified or already verified run, as soon as I try to change the player to anyone but myself on one of my runs via the API (being a game moderator for the game the run was done in) I get a 500. Having a workaround for an API wrapper be actually going on the site and performing an action manually is not exactly what I'm after.

87 has been open for over 2 years now. If this endpoint isn't working (along with submitting on someone else's behalf) it should at the very least be documented by now.
