I haven't been able to duplicate your password problems. At this stage the
only way to reset your count so you can try again is to use JUM to kill your
server and restart it. Please let me know if this works and whether you see
any more funny stuff with the password.

There is a small  chance another person (a bad person) was trying to log
into your account. But more likely it is a logic bug and I'd appreciate any
additional observations.

*** an additional thought
The 29 count is very mysterious. Hard to believe the mythical bad person
keeps hitting enter. Is there any chance that page is in your browser
history and in using your browser back button you are unknowingly doing page
refreshes? The page should be no-chache so this shouldn't happen but this is
an area to look into. I wonder if Chrome does something different here.
