Did they actually READ my message? Quote:

Gmail should definitely work, I've had no problems at all and I've helped quite a few people sign their accounts up, including my dad and sister, and all of them have come through. My brother used yahoo and his came through as well, but that was after an announcement that said they HAD been having issues with yahoo, but they're fixed now.

Gmail, but when that email didn't come right away and still hasn't I used Hotmail. Immediate response. My husband used gmail and his came right away though.  I hate that! I get the same with other feedbacks from other websites. Asking for me to do the same thing I explained I did!
I use gmail and I got it in 30 mins. And I hadn't heard anyone with that problem. Could be they put in their email wrong in all the excitement. I know I had to triple check mine! |

I'm getting really excited for everyone. As of 1 minute ago, the 7th Magic Quill Challenge was still open. To those who still haven't managed to register keep trying.
Hmmmm....I wonder what's going to happen once this excitement is over? I know!! The excitement and anticipation of receiving those welcome emails. SS needs to start up a thread once this thread is over, so that we can share the excitement with everyone once everyone starts receiving our welcome emails.

Whew! Made it in just in time I think.
I couldn't figure it out because I couldn't see anything. That's when I came by here and found out about the adblocker thingy. I disabled it and was able to get registered.

PLEASE HELP PLEASEE! Refresh your screen. When the Parseltongue Translator vid comes on, select Skip Intro. You should see the ad block appear at the top of your screen. You could try clearing your cookies but do it fast because you may not have much time left.
Good Luck!! Quote:

I hope I helped, it SHOULD take you directly to the translator, then of course, as said before, skip the intro, then look at the quills in the upper "ad" and click the right one, it'll sparkle/glow blue.
