UPDATE: I noticed however that I NEVER have to check the guestlist. People are always on the guestlist unless I went through all the people on the guestlist.

Hey Erik! They actually are in alphabetical order! Think to yourself — on a real life guest list, how would you order people alphabetically?

Sort by first name unless I have two columns that make it easier to read the last name first (especially if speed is essential for that establishment). In establishments where it is more adequate to refer to the last name rather than the first name I would consider this to be standard and if not I would list the last name first and the first name second. After all how it is sorted is only relevant to the one reading it.

Honestly though I would have never seen this if you didn't point it out as I am hard wired to read left to right and by the time I am through with the first name I don't need the last name anymore except for maybe the first few letters at which point I switch focus to other issues, but then again I quickly realized there was literally no one who was NOT on the checklist after the final upgrade. Which made the guestlist completely moot and if it was intended to switch my thinking from left to right to right to left it just never happened because of that lack of necessity.

I guess this kind of guest list fits into most ingame settings style wise but if you are always sorting by last name I'd prefer to be able to either switch last name and first name for player convenience or sort by first to last name as an option, but again not really relevant if this bug/hidden feature is meant to stay.

If not perhaps it would be fitting to add a few more upgrades that make it either more customizable or something else because trying to find where the first name ends and the last name starts in a hurry is (in my point of view unnecessarily) troublesome at later stages of the game.

Yeah you are right, I would guess majority of people read first sentence first its how logic works.
So yep having surnames first on the list would be logical thing to do. But the names on ID
start with name and then surname so aftermarket EU scorpion remembers! guestlist delux
would sort names from their surnames that would be labeled first following their names.
