CryEngine becomes free

So, Crytek finally sent me an activation email and allowed me to log into my account and download the launcher. I fired up the launcher, to be greeted by this message:

[]
An error occured. Please try again.

That’s Crytek’s misspelling, not mine. It’s been throwing me that error message for the last half hour. I looked in the error logs, and, as if by magic, their login server is still timing out. This is absolutely priceless.
