Okay, I discovered what's wrong with some of your accounts. The new system is no longer case sensitive, As a result, lower-case accounts have taken precidence over uppercase accounts.

I'm currently working on a possible solution to the problem. As there aren't many situations where there's two -currently active- accounts with the same name, I'm thinking of making one that was actually accessed in 2005 the active account instead of simply the one that was converted last.

Okay, if you try logging in now, and you couldnt before because of an old account, and that other account was not accessed since 2004, it should copy your old account from the text backup folder into the new folder. I'll come up with a better solution soon, but this should cover most people (it does cover Dreamer, Charon, and Hello for instance)

I guess I'll make a brute force list of all duplicate account names, and go through and restore the ones that ought to be restored.
