Pottermore

Ok, so, clue 5 is open right now. And unless the Order moved from number 12, Grimmauld Place to some other house number, I'm sure I have the right numerical answer. But when I plug it in to the URL like you're supposed to I just get redirected to the Scholastic website. Am I missing something? Or is this maybe like the second question on the "Insider" page:

I solved the clue for Day 4 but I couldn't find The Magical Quill. What happened?
Due to huge demand today, not everyone who solved the Day 4 clue was able to find The Magical Quill. To ensure no one missed out on the chance to register for early access to Pottermore, we decided to direct people who successfully solved the clue straight to the Pottermore registration page, where they were able to register as normal.

Do I just need coffee?

eta: Too late now, it's closed again. I would be interested to hear from those who have successfully registered, though, what they saw or did next when they entered the solution address.

This happened to me. I have Firefox, which blocks ads, and right at the last moment, someone told me to access Pottermore using IE, and that solved the problem. I was furious - it is a pain, but using Internet Explorer worked for me. Good luck tomorrow. I was being such a biatch about it, and got through and feel even more silly about it. Geez, you'd think I was about 10 the way I was nattering on.

Oh now that I know this I'll just turn off the Adblock Plus extension next time I try. But it's not normally a solution I think of.
