I would guess that it didn't.. just another example of the exploding requirements.
* not more than 2 identical characters in a row (e.g., 111 not allowed) * Name/Username in password (Name: Chuck Norris, username: ChuckNorris, Password: ChuckNorris#1)
These are reasons why I don't look forward to doing this and also why I'm leaning towards G+/FB/twitter/etc authentication in an app I'm planning.
For the second, I'd probably just do something like compute the Levenshtein distance between the username and password, and reject it if it passed some threshold.
