Signup lists?
Nov. 20th, 2009 09:12 amJust throwing this out to all you programmery-types out there who build and maintain larp web sites (which may just be
natbudin, but to any possible others there may be):
Is there any particular reason why players aren't allowed to see the lists of everyone who's signed up for each game? I know I'm always interested to see who else will be playing in the games I'm in, and it might even help me decide which one to choose if I know lots of fun people will be in one but not another. Players shouldn't have access to GM-only functions relating to sign up lists, like changing role gender or anything like that, but I don't think it would hurt if they could at least SEE who's in. I know I would like that. Is that possible to do?

I don't know if there have ever been any actual incidents of this, though.
