# Logging In and Naming a Train

### Logging In

![](/files/vVV3iiwmwCZ7o1DQBQoR)

When you click the "LOGIN" button, you'll be asked to connect a WAX Wallet or and Anchor wallet account. Either option is perfectly fine.

**If you don't have one yet**, we suggest visiting the [<mark style="color:blue;">WAX Cloud Wallet</mark>](https://wallet.wax.io) website to create an account.

Once you're logged in, you'll be prompted to name your very first train.

### Naming Your First Train

**You can name your train whatever you like**, as long as the string of characters you enter meets these criteria:

* The train name must contain **more than 3** and **less than 13 characters**
* The train name must **not contain capital letters**
* The train name must **not contain numerals greater than 5**
* The train name must **not contain any spaces or special characters other than a period**

This means acceptable characters for a train name are:

<mark style="background-color:blue;">**.**</mark>**&#x20;1 2 3 4 5 a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z**

Here are some examples of acceptable and unacceptable train names:

|  Acceptable  |     Unacceptable    |
| :----------: | :-----------------: |
|  justice4ned | ConnorMcSweeneyStan |
|   wasd1234   |    OHNO\_OURTABLE   |
| poopoopoopoo | c h o o...v i b e s |

**After your train is named**, you'll be taken to the Centuryverse map, where you'll be greeted by our friend, the Stranger. We've asked him to give you a rundown on how to play our game, but if you'd rather skip the tutorial, you can find all the pertinent info on the next few pages.
