My confirmation email arrived about 10s after I clicked to register my email yesterday.
My notification issue is still present and account for. I can’t get that mail icon off my player avatar and the notification “!” on Promo is still hanging in there.
I uninstalled the game, cleared any remnants and did a fresh install/update of the game. It didn’t help.
It’s probably already been spoken for, but I get the “Sound hangs and repeats a 1 second loop endlessly” bug quite often since I began playing this game a couple months ago. The only solution so far is restarting the game.
