I'm not sure if this is a coding problem, as on my computer when you input the player name it is fine, but when my buddy does it he says it cuts off the first character he typed in. When he selects 'no' as a response to if his name is correct the next time around it cuts of the first two characters he types in.

I'm like a week into programming so I'm a baby and I could use some help with this, and anything else messed up with my code.
Is there one I should prefer over the other? That still doesn't explain why it would show up on my computer and clip on his computer though, although I understand what you just said.
