The MySQL conversion of our registration database had one small glitch on launch, quickly tracked down—I had written a variable name as $lowername instead of $lowerName. On such things do mighty lizard empires reside.

To really give this thing a Texas-style workout, I’m going to open registration to the seething masses, for an indeterminate amount of time.

UPDATE at 3/10/07 5:29:34 pm:

As I was saying ... ahem ... sometimes bugs creep in. If you registered in the last half hour, you’ll have to do it again. The email you received contained an incorrect URL for the validation address. We’re now open again.

UPDATE at 3/10/07 5:52:32 pm:

New registrations are not working for the Lizard Lounge yet, but they will.

UPDATE at 3/10/07 6:14:32 pm:

Now closed, with more than 300 hatchlings in less than an hour. Some will make it, some won’t.

Hatchlings may now access the Lounge.
