Hello. I've been trying to start a new game for an upcoming Pathfinder group, but every time I click the button to start a new game I get the same error message. The message reads as follows: ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8 What does this mean? I tried to make a new account and that didn't work either.  Thank you all in advance!

Seconded, I am also having the same issue when trying to create a campaign. Identical error message. ArgumentError: invalid byte sequence in UTF-8

Getting same error - Same version of Chome as Chase S. listed. As it's not just something I'm doing, I'll take this as a sign to go and make some food instead :)

We're looking into this now. Edit: This should now be fixed. There was an issue with a foreign language character sheet that had characters that conflicted with our system. Let us know if you're still having trouble.

Somewhat late, but yes it's working just fine now. Good response, SteveK!
