Urgent problem!

There was a typo in the email I registered for my character,but i didn't noticed and now i've signed up for everything with a email that doesn't exist. Everything's ruined.

is there anyway to get Yahoo to add a letter to my email? Because I'll have to scrap the whole thing if I can't.

I assume that this is related to Zazaban's ARG, Hell is Not Gone.

I believe he misspellt a characters' email when creating a yahoo email login, and that this is crucial to a part of the story. I believe he is asking if anyone knows how to change that email address without having to create a whole new email address.

I really don't know that much about Yahoo, so can anyone else help?

EDIT: My only suggestion is to create another Yahoo account with the correct email address. Sorry.

Zazaban, two suggestions:

1. It would probably be more helpful if you tried contacting somebody at Yahoo about this.

2. To be honest, I don't think it's a good sign if a typo really "ruins" the whole of your game. I'd say it's strongly advised to have all your resources and materials (including registered email addresses) ready before launching the game. It's not too late to put the game on hold for a little while to get your stuff in order. That way, you'll avoid problems like this one, you'll have plenty of time to take care of everything beforehand and you'll have more room to adjust to unexpected events during the course of the game (IG & OOG).
That said, have you considered rewriting/correcting every reference to the email address? (There ARE ways you can do that in-game, without breaking character.) Or maybe even registering the address you originally intended to, as SirQuady suggested?
