Here's one:

I don't recall if I ever ended up actually testing it with ADFS, despite 
the comment at the top, but it works fine (as I recall) with DFS and 
Challenger. And looking at it again, 10 years on, you'd probably be best 
off removing the sorting, and just specify the games already sorted by 
name in the DATA statements.
