My question was transferred here from stackoverflow. My visible name is Pete Alvin. I tried logging in using Google Open ID and it can't find it. So how in the world to I authenticate or claim Pete Alvin?

The weirdest thing is that serverfault.com "half" knows who I am... see it's using my picture from stackoverflow.com but I haven't logged into serverfault.com yet!– Pete AlvinCommented May 22, 2010 at 16:08

2This question should be on meta - so you've got another site to go to :-).– Douglas LeederCommented May 22, 2010 at 17:10

If you use the same Open ID to create account at multiple sites, you should be told that the new account will be joined to the preexisting one. For example, I only had to enter my display name on the first site I registered on (this one).
