AssertionError

I added two custom logs to show the value of 'cookie_username' and 'self.username' just before the assertion.

Describe your issue

When using an account name that contains an "uppercase", the cookie loading fails and throws an assertion error (api_login.py:200). I have just investigate on this issue, using the last version of the scripts, and I found that the username cookie loaded is stored in lowercase, and when checking that it equals my username it fails because there is an uppercase in my username. A simple fix is to force the username to be lower just for the comparison, it's not the best solution but it's still better than the existing code.
