    I was noticing that it appears that for some initial letters, the list seems incomplete. I was trying to track down a user (Doffa) who made some games I liked and couldn't find it. True, I wasn't sure quite how to spell it, but I was pretty sure it started with "D", and nothing seemed close. Realizing that my "D" person would have some well-rated games, I checked geography games by rating, and did find Doffa, who does not appear in the page.

    I looked at the "Who's here" line and found the name "braddon2" there. But clicking on the B, I get only entries up to "bloossucker". Nothing close to Br*.

    This happens for several letters (not q, x, y and z, of course.) It seems like a number of them cut off with the second letter being about mid-alphabet. Oddly, it doesn't always look cut off because there are open spaces in the last column.

    I assume that the reason is that this site has become more popular -- somewhat beyond what was planned. (Congrats on that, BTW).

    I can find the profiles of these members by clicking on the links from their games, comments, or the "Who's here" section.

    Not a big thing, but if you do look for games made by members who produce quality games, it might make a difference.

    Tickman,

    Good eye. I caught this once before and mentioned it to David before. There is room for 85 names for each letter. It's probably one of his lists of a million things to do to make this site even better.

    If you can do your best to remember someone's name, you can search for them and link to their profile from the search results.

    Famisamis is right I'm afraid.

    It's on my todo list but it will not come as a separate patch, rather a part of the next general update.
