Why not sign up for a (free) account?
 
...really? I don't think I fixed anything besides what I broke. Maybe I accidentally did.

It's working fine for me too.

If you don't know how you broke it, how would you know if you fixed it?

EDIT: I should add that I didn't do any cookie/browser history/temporary internet file deleting or file shredding of any kind. It just brought me to the login screen instead of some whacky error message

Well, I know what I was working on and where when things got sketchy, and then I just start troubleshooting those pages, basically trying to follow all of the potential paths people could be taking to get logged in (since, obviously, it was working for some and not others.) But there are a lot of variables (I mean, literally, programming variables) so sometimes you only know that you finally fixed something when... it works consistently. Really that is what "bugs" are 9 times out of 10 is some obscure combination of variables/routines in code that no one realized would cause an issue because no one actually had that combination during testing.

This wasn't that obscure, but you know what I mean.
