Hello,
im getting a friend of mine to buy SOW. Now we want to start a MP Game, but he cant registrate to the lobby. Its always " the name is already taken"....we've tried 20 different names...names that cant be taken by others...
But always the same Error.
Anyone have a idea???

I'm getting the same error message when trying to set up a PowerLobbies account. Is a server down or something?

As far as I know the server and whatnot has been up continuously, although I admit I wasn't awake and online this early yesterday :silly:

Thanks, Southern Steel.
I've just had another go at creating a user account and have realised what has been happening to me and Bronko40. When you open a user account the system doesn't tell you that you've done it (or I missed something), so you try again & it tells you your user name is already in use.
Now, experimenting, I just clicked 'join' (after typing in my user name & password) and went straight into the lobby.
So, I know how to get in ...
Bronko - have you managed to get in? If not, try this.
