  Tried to register a domain for my blog. The domain is “republicofcrania.com”. At the end of the whole procedure I got the message, “An error occured processing your payment, please try again later”. Repeated attempts got same result. Went to support and it indicated that the domain need to be mapped. I tried to map the domain and got the message, “Sorry but republicofcrania.com has not been registered yet therefore cannot be mapped”.
  What is going on and what can I do to successfully register this domain?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’m not seeing republicofcrania.com as being a registered domain. I’m also not seeing it as being mapped to any WordPress.com site. Finally, I’m not seeing any transaction failures on your account. So, I’m unsure what has gone wrong.

  Can I encourage you to give it another try?
