Title: GCCG issues
Post by: Shelobplayer on February 20, 2011, 09:31:12 PM: Hi!

For some reason I can't join the server. There was a blackout here while the client was running, and when I tried to launch it after, the screen stayed black, with only the cursor on it. So, I reinstalled it, and ran update everything. Now at least the program is starting, but it says:

Connecting to lotrtcgd.com port 29120
Server closed connection.
ABNORMAL EXIT!

Is something wrong with the server, or am I banned (if so, then may I ask why?)?

EDIT:
I created a new account and now it works (but I don't have my cards :()

I've been doing a password reset practically every day now.

I did that before reinstalling, but it didn't work for some reason... I guess that random space that was in the PW you sent me today was in that file too, and I missed to notice it.
