PlayerListGui troubles...

ok, i have a kinda unusual bug... i have searched and searched but cannot find the root of it.
The problem is in my PlayerListGui, which i have modified to support 2 different teams and team scores
it works perfectly for the server, but the client side has a bug that they can only see their score and the scores of people that joined teh game after them.
i.e. all players can only see their score and the scores of the people that joined the game after they joined...
This creates a problem as the endGame scores just take the text from the PlayerListGui and puts it on the new canvas for all players to see. if they are missing some player scores in game then they can't see the scores endGame.
any insight in this... i have put up the PlayerList.gui file so you can review it, and in the function GameConnection::onClientEnterGame i added in PlayerListGui.update to try and get them to see the other players too... but even just reviewing the standard starter.fps functions, they don't come across this problem and the functions already look extremely similar.
