choowee, the login is for Slitherine's PBEM and is unique to that system. Is the serial number test coming back with an error?

We will elevate this to Matrix.

Yes, I'm getting error 3-Serial number is non-existent. I have an active account as I was gaming other pbem++ titles as well as beta testing this one pbem++. Thanks for any assistance!

I don't know if it's related with the update of our ftp servers tonight. Anyway I have notified our web admins about the issue.
We will update this thread once the issue is fixed.
Our apologies for all the inconveniences.

Retraction: it worked, I registered the serial number and user name, then when I logged in a second time, message stated that my serial number is registered to another username..............[&:]

It sounds like you accidentally created two accounts with different names and registered the serial to one and then logged in with the other.

If you can't get it working, mail support@slitherine.co.uk with your username and email address they'll work it out.

Hexagon you should not have to register your serial manually - that should happen automatically in the game. Can you let me know exactly what happened so we can check things are working as intended?

Using the in-game panels, you can register the game's serial number in your Slitherine account or even create a new account without having to register the game manually.


Step 1: Create or Update Slitherine account

Step 2: Register

Step 3: Log in

JesterEFC,

Two things. First, it needs to be a Slitherine PBEM++ account. This is different from the Matrix Club Account. Secondly, can you get us a screen shot or more information on where it is saying to use a Matrix Club Account?

Thanks and we'll get you going as fast as we can.
