Data Explorer created a new account; issuing an account merge request resulted in an error

I tried to log onto the Data Explorer through my normal OpenID (Google), but I got a brand new account instead. My real account is 4216. Is there some way to ensure that my OpenID goes to that one and not the newer 18473?


I filled the above via the Contact page, but that resulted in

We apologize for any inconvenience, but an unexpected error occurred while you were browsing our site.

It’s not you, it’s us. This is our fault.

Yes, we do look at every error. We even try to fix some of them.

It’s not strictly necessary, but if you’d like to give us additional information about this error, do so at our feedback site, http://meta.stackexchange.com.


So I'm filing two bug reports here.


Update: I just tried this and both are still broken. Any help from ops?
