So, I was hanging around Ficho Tunnel when someone mentioned that registration was open.
It seemed too good to be true, since I'd been looking to make an account with a more meaningful username (I'm not leaving this forum account behind). It wasn't, and registration was working. I was super excited and made an account, ~ ^ New Perspective ^ ~.
Now, I don't know why, but I have literally no trouble (aside from slow internet connection) with logging in on the forum. The game, however, will not just accept my account. It'll say "Failed to connect to main server" or, more commonly, the incorrect username/password return.
I've tried everything from restarting FH to double-checking the username/password in the boxes, even taking the care to re-type the username/password verrrrry slowly, just in case I'd missed something. But nope, nothing was fixed.
Is it because of the game being a derp? Is it the username, with its confusing characters? Or is it my Internet, which seems to be working perfectly enough to allow me to type this?
(I decided to put this under "Game Help" because there's no issue with the forum/site with the account - if it's in the wrong area, could someone with the power to please move it? I'm not sure which board.)
