Just throwing this out to all you programmery-types out there who build and maintain larp web sites (which may just be [info]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?

That's.... unfortunate. If I've signed up for a game, I've made a commitment to play that game, even if someone I don't like is also in the game. Still, unfortunate things happen all the time, and I'm not sure relationships are something that should be dictating technological changes. There are good reasons for and against the disclosure of names.

Maybe the player could find a different channel for learning what games the ex is in.
