The script executed when I tried it. Have you resolved the problems? See 
below:

1,User1,beans,user2@gamingsolution.com,blank2,User2,beans,2@gamingsolution.com,blank 
(whatever this means!)

And yes, you can run CGI-BIN in the home directories. Just have to modify 
httpd.conf. Just look for Alias /cgi-bin/ in the AddHandler section and add:

<Directory ~ "/home/[a-z]+/public_html/cgi-bin">
  Options ExecCGI
  AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
</Directory>

Newer versions of Apache use <DirectoryMatch>. Substitute <Directory> with 
this and drop the "~".
