Mind the Cones Registration Problems Options

[HarryB]

Want to go play in Marana.

Mind the cones won't let me register.

Says my SCCA Registration is invalid

Card in my wallet says otherwise.

The yahoo mail link to notify of the problem crashed my phone with 94 notices of an unexpected sign in attempt.

WTF

It let me register even thought it said my card was not valid. I see 48 other people registered. Ignore the card part and just submit. Jeff has been notified.

My guess is the SCCA process to validate a license has changed but they did not tell anyone or in our case tell Jeff.

It's a problem I'm chasing, Scott emailed me earlier in the week about it.

It should not prevent you from registering though. If it is, please send me (jeff@mindthecones.com) a screen cap of what you're seeing with what browser you are using.

Can't help much with the Yahoo thing, the email link on the help page is a standard email link going to info@mindthecones.com (ends up in the same place as the email above)

Not me I must be extra special.
Stops me deader than a doornail.
Loops back and says invalid data.
Hammering the keyboard repeatedly yields no changes.
May result in gunfire.
The yahoo email dump was exciting.

my bad.

i was wrapped around the axle about the invalid membership,
i completely forgot it doesnt populate the competition category automatically.

Duh.

Surprised I remembered my name.

The membership issue seems to stem from the SCCA killing off the set of services (or moving them) that MTC is using. I finally stumbled upon this notice: https://www.scca.com/articles/2006140-scca-...ance-and-update

So I'll have to figure out an alternative. I have an email into memberships@scca to see what I can do.

For now, I disabled SCCA verification so that the error doesn't appear and confuse people.

I found this same thing out last Sunday when I registered. Alerted Jeff at that time, he was just getting back into town. Mine says invalid, but I could register anyway. I also have my SCCA re-registration sitting here, it's due by the end of June. I also emailed SCCA just to be sure all was correct there, and it is.

The problem is with MTC.

If it's doing this to us, it's doing it to others.

I'm curious, how could it deny anyone? Many non-members sign up and handle the temp membership after the fact at the event. No one should be denied entry based upon membership, right?

EDIT - I see now that Jeff has found the issue and is fixing it. Good. Given my last sentence above, is this feature even necessary for Registration? Maybe when one pre-pays....

The feature will be re-enabled as soon as the SCCA gets back to me on what MTC should be using to validate memberships since they sunset the prior service. It is useful for knowing what entrants have valid memberships so that positions that require this, such as waiver, can be assigned. It also helps with displaying the correct entry fees for an entrant on the confirmation page.

[SMeyers]

That makes sense. Thanks.

Resolved and working again. Since there are no events currently open for registration, you can go to Account > Basic Information and should see it.

Thanks for your patience.
