I just tried and indeed there was a database problem with the online
version, which caused registration of a new user to fail.
The cause is not in the software but in the database itself: the hangman
game was migrated (a few years ago) from it's own authentication system to
Wt::Auth / Wt::Dbo, but there was something not quite right in the migrated
user table. It's now been fixed.
1) I've done something wrong

We understand the risk of using a library is being in the dark when
something goes wrong. Therefore we try to give clear errors and logging of
exceptions. In this case it seems you would get an error message in the log
file that hints at what's wrong (a SQL database exception)
