GKTurnBasedParticipant information

Question

Is there any way of retrieving the player's name from a GKTurnBasedParticipant object? It appears that there is no way of displaying relevant information about the game player apart from an ugly playerID according to the class reference. Or am I missing something?

Thanks...

Use loadPlayersForIdentifiers:withCompletionHandler: class method of GKPlayer. You pass an array of player ids as NSString and get an array of full GKPlayer objects. Read GKPlayer Class Reference for more information.
