I want to create a site on Neocities. I fill out the signup form, solve the captcha, but when I click the "Create My Site" button, nothing happens. I click it again, and after a delay it starts loading something, but then just says "The captcha was not valid, please try again."

This happens regardless of the browser, machine or IP address I'm using.

Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem, and hopefully how to solve it? Is it just me or does anyone else have the same issue? I've sent an email to the admins two days ago, but still have gotten no reply, and I can find no info on this elsewhere online.

EDIT (20-8-2024): It's working now, probably they fixed it, woo! :D

You can always try the 'Contact' form on the site, it's not likely anyone here is going to be able to give you good advice

I know, as I've said, I've sent them an email through that form two days ago but have still gotten no response.

2 days ago was Friday, it's likely they don't work the weekends.

Could be so, though it doesn't look like a site where the devs have a fixed time schedule. (Not that I know much about managing a website, just my impression.)
