How is the character selection screen sorted?

[nubeees]

Title says it all. I can tell its not by date, nor is it alphabetical... How is it sorted? Ideas?

I'm honestly at a loss for this myself sir. Perhaps it's situated at random? If not that, then perhaps by what character ye' use the most. Although the second suggestion seems a bit doubtful, ehheh, it's still a general idea.
Again, mainly I perceive it be utterly random via organization and order. I could be wrong however.

I noticed when I made new characters (and I had a total from 1-7, roughly) that whatever the front character is for now (Lets say.... F) is sittin there for 2 more charries. A and Z (Next to charries) go on either side of F. A on the left, Z on the right, and then Q (our third) will replace F and F will be behind A?

I kinda noticed this. ... I pay too much attentionish.

I am actually stumped on how its done.  Though Ocean's idea, Though a bit crazy, sounds close...?

Most of my new Characters end up on the left of the first character when I log on. But, it is actually sorted randomly, no pacific way.

I've tried to figure this out before.
And really, I couldn't.
It seems however, the majority of the characters I make end up right behind my first character (like, if you click the arrow once to the left after the first character you see the new character).
I really have no idea, though. It would be nice if we could sort our characters using the character control panel on this site, but without the source code I don't think that will be happening.

I've noticed that my 3 wolf characters are all on the left side of my character selection, and then all my feline characters on the right... I don't know how it came to that though XD And when I make a new wolf character it goes on the left....weird.

I had to delete a character one time and make an exact copy...doesn't seem to be random though because when I finish the clone, it's in the same place as the old character. This may just be for my game but who knows.

(I think) Its like this....
Newest | 2nd Newest| 3rd Newest | 4th Newest
And so on.
Now, because it run in a loop, your oldest character is the 1st on the left, so you could also say
4th Oldest | 3rd Oldest | 2nd Oldest | Oldest | Newest | 2nd Newest| 3rd Newest | 4th Newest
Until they meet in the middle.

BUT, if you click "create a character" anywhere but the first one, it will be placed before the character you where just on. EXAMPLE: (if you had been looking at 3rd newest when creating the charcaterer)
 2nd Newest | Newest | 3rd Newest | 4th Newest

Over time the order can get really messed up due to that^^

It seems completely random on mine.

I think this might be it!
