I can't remember the site ever requesting the email address to log in with so I'm guessing it was that your password didn't match. "Or maybe I forgot my password and couldn't have it emailed to me because the password could only be mailed to the old email address." That would make sense, yes - in a case like that you could always email Admin and they could try to reset your account manually :-)
