For a young player, it's very difficult to find people to play bridge with (live), and it doesn't help when he walks into a local bridge club and find that everyone inside are old enough to be his grandparents... people like to associate with others of their own age; when this and playing bridge just doesn't mix, the normal action is probably stop playing it.

I wonder if it would be possible to NOT load the full player list at the software's start up? As there could possibly be more than 12,000 players around at a time, loading the massive list takes a long time. Instead, the player list can be loaded in parallel to the main program. If you are just going into a bridge game, I don't see why the player list is necessary.
