Github won't link to UE4

So, I’ve been trying to connect my unreal account to github for about a day now. I’ve followed all the instructions and suggestions: made a github account, copied my github name and put it into the Github Account Name section of my UE4 Account page and saved it, gotten a confirmation email from epic about linking to github, but I’ve gotten no email or anything from github itself allowing me to join the UE4 organization. I’ve tried the suggestions on Github linking difficulties - Programming & Scripting - Unreal Engine Forums to try and do a workaround for getting the email from github, but it always returns to the 404 page, whether logged in beforehand or logged out when clicking the link with the mail=1 at the end. I saw that that question thread was a year ago, so maybe something else has gone wrong this time?

nvm, feel really stupid. Misspelled my usual username when creating my github acount. Only realized this when it wouldn’t let me delete the github account. lol
