Creating an account with the wrong email | Username is now taken

When I made my account I named it Pathevo, but accidentally forgot one number from my E-Mail, thus making it belong to a different E-Mail I do not access. So I made my Account with and since my name was taken I tried the original writing with the é and it got acceppted
However, I actually want the Name with the normal e but since its taken through my stupidity I can’t change my Name to it. What can I do to fix this?

If the email is not confirmed after around 48 hours the account would be deleted from our system which means the username should be free again.

After this time and you could register with it once again.

I tried it and the name is still taken.

I’ve just checked again and it seems to be 48 hours. Sorry for the confusion, if that then still does not work let me know.

I’m in a similar situation. it’s been over 48 hours for me.

Which username are you currently waiting on to time out?

I just tried to create the account again and I retrieved the name!

After the 48 hours passed, I went ahead and made an additional account to post on this forum with an alternate email address and added an “" to my username at the end, but the "” doesn’t should up here in the forums.

While responding to this message, I thought to try one more time and got the account locked in.
I wish there was a confirmation email input box to minimize typos, but thanks to this post for the helpful insight.

All set here, thanks!
