I am experiencing a technical difficulty right now as I'm unable to link my Atlas account (MiniMike without the space) and my forum account. When I try to do it, I keep getting the error message "user name not found." I tried over the last few days on different devices but it's still not working. Same error message each time. What should I do? Thanks.

Do you mean you are trying to use "MiniMike" (exactly as spelled, without quotes)? Because your account name is "Mini Mike" (no quotes). There is a space.

I made my Atlas account with the username MiniMike because it didn't let me use a space for some reason. I wanted it to be the same as my forum username which does have a space.

Is there another thing I can do to try to link my accounts? Has anyone else had this issue before?

I forget exactly how the linking process goes, but maybe your Atlas account needs to use the exact same name to work properly.

You can contact Dave via the form on this page to ask him to help you:

The main site (uselectionatlas.org) is his, so unfortunately I can't help much with it.

On the subject of linking accounts, I noticed that my Atlas profile says my account is linked, but my forum profile doesn't. Anybody know what gives?

There might be some glitch occurring due to the domain change. When I updated my PM score it changed on my Atlas account but hasn't changed on my forum profile.

Thanks. I've reached out to Dave to sort that out.

I can say it's still not working for my issue - is it possible to unlink my account from the Atlas side then try again?

This is the problem I am currently having.

My Atlas account has a totally different username because I was a stupid 15 year old when I made my account. This could be relevant.

EDIT: My mock vote banner changes perfectly fine as I update it, and the political compass on my forum profile indicates the correct result of -8.64, -1.91, while my forum post sidebar is stuck at -5.55, -3.30.
