If you cannot connect to the server, and have logged in via the play game on the forum, this could be because of the new update.
I have noticed with the new update that, since we have a strong increase in new and returning players, that the servers are quite crowded. So please just be patient and if it hasn't calmed down by Monday I am sure we can figure something out for you both!
