How do you create a login and register?
Here's a more in-depth explanation:
The program, on startup, checks the player's username. If the player's username is on a list of registered names (parsed from a cloud variable that contains all the players that have played the game), it asks for a set password (also parsed from a different cloud variable.) If the player's name isn't on the list, the program asks the user for a password that will be used to get in, adds it to the other variable, and the player is registered.
If you do not wish to have passwords, you can just skip those steps in the code. It isn't needed, but would be cooler.

That's how I would do it, but you would have to know their password first.

Lists are on one machine only and aren't cloud(yet?). Every time you reset the project, so does the list. @Kandymations solution won't work.(Sorry!)
Plus, to make cloud variables, you need to be a full scratcher, which you aren't. Just be active and it will be only a matter of time before you are a full scratcher!

I would ask people to comment when they join, and then add their names onto something like this:
