Keep working on it Bob, you need the forum email you use to log in to the registration page besides your password.
Pretty sure this is why the emails came out early this year, so everyone can see it and have a week to get ready.
Duane is right - we learn each year and what we learned last year is that it's a bad idea to send an email out the moment registration is opened. So this year, we sent it out 1-week before registration opens, allowing everyone to prepare and have the registration link in advance.
Here's a link to a copy of the email that went out.
Bob got all squared away yesterday. He'd changed his email address and could not log into the forum. As an anti-hacking measure, many online services require a confirmation anytime the email address is changed. Bob was able to go to his previous email system and click the confirmation link in the email sent to him by the forum system.
Bob changed his email address in an effort to use one that he can get emails from RegOnline from. It's possible the IP address of mail server used used by RegOnline (our rally registration system) is blacklisted by some email providers.
