Thanks for the reply and the explanation. Unfortunately when I try it with my code, I'm still not getting the nicks. Also I noticed that the parent item is greyed. I replaced my alias with the one you provided, and made the changes to the parent item line. Aside from that, my code is still the same as before.

I added
Code:
echo 4 -a $1 $hget(Watch,$1).item
to the alias, and it returned
begin 3
1 Notify
end 3

When I manually check the entries in the hash table, I get this
Notify
Notify.RusselB-afk
Notify.Truth-or-Dare-Master

So as you can see there's a problem somewhere...I'm just not sure where or how to fix it...hopefully you can do so, with an explanation (although your posts so far have been great for explanations, so that seems like a redundant request).
