What error message are you hitting when you try to register?

I had two problems, which may be related.

First, I appear to have been able to register, but when I tried to assign myself a user name, it rejected it saying that it needed to consist of only letters, numbers and a few punctuation characters. That was strange because it was only letters. It didn't allow "beroset" but it let me use "eberoset" which suggests there may be a duplicate account from a previous attempt.

Second, I tried to associate an email address. I got the confirmation email clicked on the link and then it gave a cryptic error message at first, but after my second attempt it now says "Error: Identity in use by another account."

I imagine that it might be possible for an admin to delete one or both accounts and I could try again.
