Big brain move is going to reset your password, seeing what their obscure password requirements are, then remembering your password and going back to the login screen to log in.

I really wish sites with those stupid restricted complexity requirements would just say what they are on the login screen.

"We only allow '&#@!()' because we don't understand password security, you're welcome."
