An hour of time wasted. · 4:56am May 17th, 2022
So I tried to make an account on fanfiction.net and while it was successful, somehow the email and password combination is invalid, even passwords the sent to that same email when I reset it several times. I'm not a computer person, but I fail to see how the combination is invalid when everything else seems to work just fine. To my understanding, it can't be invalid when the passwords are being sent to the email in question, which is the same exact email I used when I created the account not even 2 hours ago. So now I have an account on a website I can't even log into because what I'm understanding is a problem on their end, nor can I make another account because it will be registered as a duplicate account.
As for why I was trying to do this, I wanted to write a Re:Zero fic replacing Subaru with Manus from Low Level Mage. I would have done that on here by now, but if I'm understanding the rules on this site, I can't just add or switch a few characters with MLP characters, and while what Manus has done so far could essentially allow him to skip over half of Subaru's deaths and other troubles like his duel with Julius, I'm pretty sure it would be a no if I'm understanding the second bullet on that list of "don'ts".
On a side note, Embrace is close to the next chapter, it's at almost 2k words, and there will only be I think 2 or 3 more chapters in the Nobody arc. After that, the next worlds will be (in whichever order they're voted in) Overlord, Avatar TLAB, and Black Clover. After checking back with chapter 63, the votes are as follows (unless people commented their votes, in which case, I skimmed over those):
Avatar-9
Overlord-5
Black Clover-3
Like the comment with the world you want next to vote.
Avatar
Black Clover
Overlord
hello, don't get into fanfiction.net, the page is dead

Avatar feels the most fitting for the next crossover. But I have to say I am curious over what you could do with Overlord and what character interaction he’ll have with the recidents of the Great Tomb of Nazarick.

The question is though, where is a good point for him to join? There are a lot of episodes compared to the previous worlds, a lot of episodes are almost filler episodes (I say almost because the Freedom Fighters for example were practically irrelevant in the long run), and considering the Fire Nation is basically Nazi Germany, he would be less than merciful. Then there's moments that would almost, if not actually need to be re-written because of how he is.

Yeah, I can see how that would be an issue. You could have it be the crossover were he learns a bit more compassion or you could place him in the more darker episodes. Like the Bloodbending arc or something.
But ultimately, if you feel that it becomes too difficult to write. You should go with what you feel is easier. Overlord would be the better option, he could join early with Ainz when he’s being an adventurer.

Yeah, I was thinking either the (no idea if I'm spelling it right) Bah Sing Se arc starting at the library, after they enter the Fire Nation, or after Zuko joins. Probably the latter would be easier to write.

Yeah, after Zuko joins would be the easiest. Though I’m not sure how he would gain the groups trust.
Hey Knight! With Fanfiction you need to make sure that if you use a letter at the beginning of a password that if you capitalized it you you NEED to capitalize it when you try to sign in.

I did, and even when I reset that PSW, I copied and pasted the temp they gave me, but even those didn't work. So from what I understand, the login just won't work. It keeps saying invalid email and password combination, but that can't be the case for the simple fact that the account is linked to my email which is what has received the several PSWs they sent me. At this point, it would make more sense to run it by the fimfic staff and see how much I'd have to change for it to be allowed on here.

What about Archive of our own? That could work as an alternative!
Also did you get a message saying your account has been approved? If I remember right new accounts have to be approved due to DDoS attacks in the past.

It was approved. As for Archive? Never heard of it until now.
