I currently have 29 messages yet my inbox is displayed as empty. Odd, but I've sent a few cfhs in and want to make sure I can read what they say since they're about my username not changing from 'guest' to 'Julez'. Any advice?

I am trying to make a trivia game and want to do like the HOST games where instructions pop up in a window upon entering the room. Any idea how I can do this? I appreciate any help.
