I just checked my VGPS lists and wondered about a name of one list, I couldn't remember to have done:
[email protected]...
Another list shows only up as [email protected] — it's analysis takes the same reason, but ending in a geocachers nickname.
While discovering its name closer, I found that the @ in its name leads to this name display, although the top toolbar tells name correctly.
When the list name starts with @, it's not scrambled!
