    There are lots of accounts around. Get into the group, I'm currently taking stock. Those that want to give out an account, post it in the topic.




    Edit:
    There are lots of new pictures out. I personally think they look quite awesome, for example Gringotts:

    Good to see so many DLP members got accounts. Hopefully, I'll get one from the day 3 clue.
    It will be posted on here when it opens up again, won't it?

    Is that just a wall on the right side or are those fireplaces for easy floo access?

    Pretty awesome pictures btw.

    I thought mayhaps they were elevators to the carts, or something.

    I registered, but have yet to receive an e-mail (And I checked like three times that I spelled my e-mail correctly and it's not in my junk mail). Anyone else having this issue?

    Oh, yeah, yesterday yahoo was a problem, too. Though Sesc and someone else eventually got the mail - several hours later.

    Saw this early yesterday. What was I doing up at this ungodly hour, you might ask? Getting my ass kicked by strep throat, that's what. Hot and cold and hot and cold and hot and cold and... you get the picture. All that was enhanced by a really terrible sore throat and flu-like aches and dizziness.

    I HATE being sick. I don't think I left the recliner on Saturday, tbh.

    Anyway, went to the magical quill and got in in no time.

    Portus is AKA WolfThorn9, IIRC. Got a confirmation email pretty quickly but I was too sick to fuck with it yesterday. Luckily I realized it was time-sensitive and activated it today. I thought that would be the last step, but apparently NOW is when I'll have to wait for the Welcome email.

    Ah well. I'm only really interested in the extra content, not any of the games or what-have-you. I suppose another avenue of connecting with DLPers or recruiting new (and potentially worthy) blood to DLP is a plus as well.

    ShadowQueen. Quoted for posterity, right there. Anything you wanna tell us? Because that immediately makes me think of you as a closeted drag queen. Perhaps we could get your DLP name changed to Taurina? Taura? Taury-Anne? No, no, I got it - Queen Taurine.

    Actually, I'm wondering why so many folks here are registering for multiple accounts. Is it over the usernames, which I think would be a terribly vain reason and a waste of time. If, however, it's about securing accounts for other DLPers - or to have more "leverage in setting the direction of the site," or whatever the betas do - then I can see the use in multiple accounts.

    Well, if one happened to be German, for example, one for each language. Also, don't forget different accounts can be given different access times. And yeah, there were some who didn't get one themselves, and now have been given one.

    However, I really do think that the first multiple accounts happened because the communication on Pottermore's end was quite bad and no one knew if getting an account meant you were actually in. Especially as the mails didn't come, at first. It's a lot more clear now.


    Anyway, some news.

    That's 4 AM to 8 AM EST, as far as I am aware. "Different time", yeah -- +/- minutes. That's the exact span when the first two went live as well. They keep fucking you Americans over, lol.

    It's a bit of a mixture of all of that, along with Sesc's reason. Also, everyone will be let in at different times. So, hopefully one of my three is accepted right away....that will be the one I use.

    Apparently you can register without having to find the quill by using the URL 'pottermore.com/en/register/1'.

    I haven't got an account yet. Hopefully I won't get a shitty name.

    I feel like I'm never going to get an account.

    ...and my chances just got even slimmer. Are there any unclaimed accounts left?

    Sign up to Sesc's group, linked earlier in the thread. You can ask for a spare account there.
