:Which is precisely why we ask them to register accounts in advance. But you only need an admin on-hand (I might be available, in which case I'll go down in case I need to override it), or if you know the IP address in advance, you can ask the devs to lift the limit for the day—see [[m:Mass_account_creation#Requesting_temporary_lift_of_IP_cap]].

- Which is precisely why we ask them to register accounts in advance. But you only need an admin on-hand (I might be available, in which case I'll go down in case I need to override it), or if you know the IP address in advance, you can ask the devs to lift the limit for the day—see m:Mass_account_creation#Requesting_temporary_lift_of_IP_cap.
