i had the same problem.
don't log out because until the account is verified by clicking a link in the e-mail you will receive (according to irc messaging with MagicalTux tomorrow) there is no way to log into your account...
Also, the lost password feature is broken...
But the *original* account I had created DID receive the confirmation email. I had been logging into it since 6/20. Today, when the login stopped redirecting to the support page, I could no longer log in.

So I decided to create another account. Which I did. I had it generate a btc address for me to send funds to. It did. I sent the funds. Now I can't log into that account either.

Just for fun, I thought I'd see if this were still the case. It is. There is no message when I log into a new account that I need to wait for verification. Nor does it send an email before I can log in. It logs in automatically.

Guess I need to get on IRC ...
