An unexpected error occurred! IllegalStateException: Couldn't find an account with the username ozymandiaswept in the selected forum. Please double-check: 1) The selected forum 2) The spelling of your username 3) If your account is correctly registered at the selected forum
Lol I added that error message to the game. It is supposed to be more clear for users how to fix the problem. Did you check option 2?
Either way, it does not matter as PBF on the TripleA server does not work at the moment. You either have to choose PBEM and manually post the turn summary as pointed out by @beelee above, or you'd have to move to the Axis and Allies forum where you can use PBF.

Hi Ozzy
Stick with us
Some of the stuff doesn't work right now. This is how @victoryfirst taught me to do it and I have done the same ever sense. 2-3 years now and it works for me. I'm on ubuntu fwiw but everyone else on windows. Idk if you on mac will bring in ubernaut but it should work regardless.
this should show you what to do pretty much. disregard the clutter

but you start pbem
make sure both emails registered to the Dice server hit register takes you here https://dice.triplea-game.org/
Ignore all the other bullshit and fire up a game
So select game do the email shit make sure both emails registered and o h yea hit "test server" only need to do it once at game start, then you good to go.
Most people do a test turn in local mode then hit PBEM or Forum, they're basically interchangeable and do their final turn in pbem.
It'll say "Dice Server On "bottom right. When your turn is done you hit "Turn Summary" then ctrla ctrlc
Then save game ctrls
post the turn sumarry and saved game to your opponent at your game thread, we create a Game Thread here https://forums.triplea-game.org/category/45/play-by-forum
or you can send emails to each other
Edit
ask if you get stuck. I struggled hard trying to figure it out first time fwiw lolThen @victoryfirst clued me in
Edit 2
As far as the above error, make sure you had a capital "O" in your name. Idk but the error has it in lower case. Maybe it doesn't matter. Idk. Triplea will @ some names with upper case and then sometimes it comes up all in lower case
