i just thought id post again since its been around 11 hours since my first post, does anyone know why in the public beta, i click to login, but yet it stays at validating key...?
Also, all the following versions do the same thing...

Version 400.951
Version 400.962

Sometimes connection failed message shows....

Been another 9-10 hours or so, so i thought id edit my post to say the following....i tried deleting everything that has to do with byond on my computer, but yet, once i install it again, it still dont work, also, i tried to delete folders that would remake themselves and such, but that didnt make it work either.

Please wait at least one day for a bump.

Did you make sure to unblock BYOND from your firewalls.
