I'm attempting to create a new game account (so glad to see this game back; so many fond memories, thank you), but I keep getting an error saying that it could not connect to the Account Server Gateway. I've searched the forums and found others have had this issue, but I don't see any clear solutions. Some suggested trying a different browser (I've tried chrome, firefox, and even safari on my phone). Another said they think it was because they used symbols in their PW; I tried creating a PW with only letters and numbers, but again, no luck.
The error message does say to try again in a few minutes, but so far I've been having the problem for almost an hour. I'll try again later, but wanted to post in case there is an issue that can be resolved.
