				| Hi!  I was interested in how to go about acquiring a password to get into a game?  It seems that almost all games created these days are asking for that.  Thanks!

				| You can send a private message to the game creator. Use the "Find a User" link above. Or you can simply start your own game. If you password it you can post the password here or on boardgamegeek. You can also open up a non-passworded game and it usually will fill up very quickly. _________________

				| The passworded games usually take longer to fill up, so there are a lot more of them on the list. As a SBW newbie I got a bit frustrated with that as well, and started creating open games myself. That way you can find people you enjoy playing with and can play passworded games with them. |  |

				| Spot on. To a newbie it can seem that this site is a closed shop, because almost all the games are passworded. In fact it's because the non-passworded games fill up very quickly. Start your own non-passworded games and watch them fill up before your eyes!
 
 As an aside, I would be interested if there were stats available for the percentage of games which are passworded?
 I'd be willing to bet it's less than 50%.

				| About 2/3 of the games ever played on the site have NOT been passworded. |  |

				| I wonder if it would be helpful to bold this line. 
 No non-passworded games to join? Then create your own.
 
 Help draw attention to it.
