I can't make a new account!

I've been trying to make a new account for ages, It just won't let me. I clicked on sign up, then this thing came up saying I created a multiple of accounts allready, so I clicked on the "create account" button. It just keeps sending me back to the same "multiple accounts" page! How can I make a new acount?

Yeah, it just brings me to the same place. And I've logged out. (well not at the moment or else i'd be unable to post this!)

Re: I can't make a new account!

That's really weird.

Try it in a different browser, you might have more luck. I can get to the signup page easily...


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: I can't make a new account!

How many accounts do you have? I doubt it matters, but if you have like 1000 or something it may not let you.

I don't think the amount of accounts matter. What does the page look like? Screenshot?

Hmm - that page is really just a warning - it should be possible to setup a new account just by clicking past it.  Do you see any other messages / notifications?

If you didn't see the warning then you must have a dynamic IP like mine.
