...are at the midnight showing of Spider-Man 2, I'm sitting here trying to clean up the site. The latest:
Registration now appears to be working, and is pretty painless.* If you register, you'll be able to post immediately. If not, your posts are going to have to wait until someone here decides to go on a cleaning spree and clean out the inbox. Which, considering Peter and I are both staring at some deadlines, could be hours or days later.
* Unless you don't get the Typekey confirmation mail, as some ISPs have treated them as spam. If you have that problem, post here with "typekey problem" as your first line, along with your ISP, and we'll try to fix it with typekey.
Posted by Glenn Hauman at June 30, 2004 01:29 AM | TrackBack | Other blogs commentingI was one of the first people to post in this new era of registration, and I've seen a couple of my posts. What I HAVEN'T seen is any TypeKey e-mail. Is this unusual?
I hope your registration system gets me.
On the other thing...inasmuch as goofball directors and editors-in-chief of comics companies and actors in Mafia dramas can get bit parts in "Spider-Man 2," I wonder why a man who can so capably perform Marryin' Sam didn't even get a cameo in the film. (Of course, he got a check for the novel adaptation, so I guess it's okay, but still...)
After all, I'll be he could have sung the "Spider-Man" theme song better than that Asian lady...I think her name was Yo-Ma-Ma, wasn't it?
Not even sure what 'TypeKey' is (no e-mail received) but double-checking this is is now letting me post.

haven't had the confirmation email but i normally visit through my work pc - (it's quicker than my home one) - don't know the ISP no - Soz.
it works - hurrah for typekay - boo hiss for the dee types and their low iq brainless barely literate input.
I tried to get a Typekey identity, but the bloody thing doesn't recognise my password. And because I haven't had a chance to set up a Secret hint, I can't recover my password to double check it.
I am not impressed...
Very rarely post but wanted to make sure I can should I chose to....hope this worked, when it comes to these in depth computer thingies I am lost....:)
Hey, it worked! That is very exciting! Thanks so much Glenn and Peter for working so hard on this, just so we can talk to you!
Well, since this is my second attempt to register, if this doesn't work I'll assume that I'm persona non gratis in this forum and go elsewhere.
Ok I don't post too often but I figure one more password to remember won't hurt. Odd thing is though when I tried to preview this message originally it just cleared out my text from the comment screen. So if this appears twice, I apologize.
And now, without further ado:
Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3
Glenn, you are the best!
I've seen my messages posted, but still haven't gotten the confirmation e-mail...
Urm I registered yesterday. Made a comment got a message and my comment never made it to the intended thread? HAALLP!!
OK, lets try again. I did use typekey, & got my confirmation email, so maybe now.

Hopefully, these registration growing pains will soon be a memory. :-)
Looks like it's working. Please pass Go and collect appropriate kudos for all the hard work. :)
i pretty much just lurk, but i figured i'd register anyways.

Just wanted to make sure I could post on future threads. Sorry it had to come to this, but I understand why it did.
Way to go Glenn!
Will buy you TWO drinks at shoreleave now :)
This is a test, so I can let PAD know what I thought of Madrox when it comes out in Sept.
I'm wondering if I'm here, because I'm normally not all there.
Typekey problem...
I never got a message confirmation e-mail.
Do the e-mail addresses really have to be public? They're spam magnets...
God, this is a pain! After a FIFTH try this system finally allowed me to sign in!
Another test...
And as I see now, it seems after each posting you have to sign in all over again.
This is not very user friendly.

Hey! It worked this time!
Now I can go decompress myself for a awhile before I have to return to work.

Spider-Man 2 is the best superhero movie since the first Chris Reeve Superman movie. I saw it last night, right after my company's screening of King Arthur, and my review of it (with spoilers) is at: http://64.33.77.146/discus/messages/8/23462.html?1088772053#POST264017.
I also thought King Arthur was good (and man is Keira Knightley beautiful!), and my review for that movie is at: http://64.33.77.146/discus/messages/8/24495.html?1088758033#POST264014. There's one minor spoiler (not in the review, but in the miscellaneous notes afterwards) visibly marked with a bold red SPOILER WARNING and its SPOILER ENDER.
Worked fine - no problems. I am surprised you didn't go to something like this sooner. :)
