   As I understand it, maskreet recently migrated some portion of Doorparty to   
   Mystic, fuck knows why exactly.   
      
   My old doorparty.js script does this when connecting:   
      
   - Use a system-wide password for all users if defined in modopts [doorparty]   
   - If not, use a per-user password from data/user/####.ini [doorparty]   
   - If not, generate password, store in ####.ini, and use it   
      
   When the user account is created on Doorparty, the password as selected above   
   is used, and is reused on subsequent connections.   
      
   My best guess is he didn't migrate users to the new system, or he didn't   
   migrate them with the possibility of unique passwords in mind and gave them   
   all a common password, or something like that.   
      
   For the users who are complaining, look for data/user/####.ini according to   
   their user number, see if there's a [doorparty] section in the file, delete   
   that entire section, save the file. Have them try connecting again. If that   
   doesn't help, get in touch with maskreet and have him look at one of the user   
   accounts on his end, see what the password is and why what your system sends   
   is different.
