Won't accept my login. Sad.

Ranbir, I had this problem, but I just pressed 'cancel' and it still let me proceed (I think). So just press cancel, and see if that helps.

Why am I helping the competition! :-)


Because you are a good fella, and beta testing is all about cooperation, isn't it? [;)]

But the game is about winning, and you're in my way *mwahahahaha*

(I tend to turtle, who am I kidding? Thinking I'm a war mongering zerg-master....)

Thanks @ErikRutins you rock.

Sigh. I'd sign up but I already have my little piddies into too many pies already so wouldn't be able to actually do anything useful past being selfish and getting to play it before anyone else. [:D]

Could someone tell me what username and password I use to sign up for beta testing. I signed in to the matrix site, signed into the forum. Put the details of the forum username and password but told me this was invalid. I tried 3 times.
Am I showing my age here:(

Just left a comment but it disappeared?

Anyway the log in on the beta sign up page was a bit buggy.

I got the drop down notice from the browser to log in but it wouldn't work - So i logged in from the standard log in link at the top of the page and it worked, but i was still receiving the browser drop down notice to log in, even after being logged in and having completed beta sign up.

Those little pop-up windows that keep asking you to log in? I just kept closing them whenever they appeared, and continuing with the process. I think it worked (I got a confirmation email).

Yes, you should be fully logged into your accounts before you sign up.

Hi Erik,

I mentioned this elsewhere but I still get an error "Already applied" from years ago. You might have to dig deep to find me! [:D]
