[14:57] <peer> I cant.. create an account/login to lp, and to file a bug about it requires me to login
[14:57] <peer> does it take some time to populate a new user?
[15:00] <cjwatson> peer: Is it giving you an OOPS ID?
[15:01] <cjwatson> peer: if so, ilasc is help contact today and should be able to fix that sort of thing for you given the OOPS ID
[15:01] <peer> many. OOPS-1adb15b78e11a8a89d365eb4885e28a0
[15:01] <cjwatson> ilasc: ^
[15:02] <ilasc> cool, peer: looking into it now 
[15:02] <peer> np, no rush
[15:12] <ilasc> peer: that's solved now for you 
[15:12] <peer> out of curiosity, what went wrong?
[15:13] <peer> oh, i can see what went wrong
[15:14] <ilasc> you ended up with 2 accounts (historical migration issue)
[15:14] <peer> yeah, i can see that, wow
[15:14] <cjwatson> and https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/1607242 is about LP needing manual babysitting by staff to handle this
[15:14] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1607242 in Launchpad itself "Logging into a placeholder person OOPSes if email address already on another person" [Critical, Triaged]
[15:14] <cjwatson> but at least it's a routine thing we can deal with quickly when it happens
[15:15] <peer> this feels like the time i broke bugcrowd with a username, hah
[15:15] <peer> thanks, folks
[15:16] <ilasc> :-) no problem, glad we could help
