I want to loop though a circular list, on each occasion i randomly generate either a 1, or a 0, if it's a 0, I delete that user from the list, if it's a 1 I continue on, leaving that user logged in, essentially mimicing logging on and off. How do I do this? Every time I try it seems to come very close but not quite work, what am I doing wrong??
