for some reason if I close the site or log out all my info gets lost or
something. I try to log back in and it says there's no such user... I've
checked my user name and password about 100 times now so I know I'm not doing
it wrong. even got fed up and registered again, starting a new town. and
I've never seen this behavior.
I've started a new town as well to test this, and I'm not seeing this problem.
What was your town name, and how far did you get before logging out or closing
the browser?
It shouldn't matter what you do to exit, either log out or close browser, it
will time out
