Can't log into gamesas.com, well sorta....

... better tell the story from the start.

When the Crysis 2 Demo came out, I created an account with the Username: Untamed, using my standard email address.
Problem was I couldn't log in and play the demo with the gamesas.com account. so I left it be...
Now with the full game I had the same problem... couldn't log in.
So I went ahead and wanted to create a new account ingame, using the same standard email address as before... just it kept telling me that the username "Untamed" is already in use.... so what did I do?
I logged into gamesas.com, went under account settings, and deleted my "Untamed" account... well sorta!
Because after I did this, I still couldn't use the username "Untamed" ingame to create a new account, so I went ahead and used a different one: "UNT@M3D"...
Now here comes the funny part, which I don't understand.. I used the same email address as always, also when creating the new ingame account...
Result is, when I try to use the username UNT@M3D to log into the gamesas.com start page, it tells me the account doesn't exist, now... (its getting tricky) if I try my old username "Untamed", it saids the same thing, BUT(!!) when I head into the forum it clearly shows i'm logged in (as you can see I'm using it to post this).. I can even go into the edit profil area... and this is where it gets really weird!!
If I change the password of the account Untamed.... it affects the password of my ingame created account UNT@M3D.... ha?!
Another negative side effect is, that I can't redeem my LE stuff (which is probably useless to me by now anyway, since I'm lvl 17 ingame by now ;P), because wenn I use the link, there it tells me I'm then again not logged in...!

So basically what I think is that there must be more than one Database, where they are linked per email address, and I may have "broke it" because I tried to delete my first account?!...

I'm clueless...

I just noticed something new under the "edit profile" area, account settings....
"Your gamesas username and your Crysis 2 nickname differ. Do you want to take for gamesas username the Crysis 2 nickname (UNT@M3D)?"

Tried it! didn't work :( still can't login properly....

I have seen something very similar happen with my account, you didn't break it, it was broken to begin with. There do indeed appear to be multiple accounts that are supposed to link to each-other somehow but they don't do it correctly.

Just wait for them to fix it.
