"count me in" should be "create account"

There are many times where Syphon chooses to be more playful with language when in English.
I'd prefer it remain "count me in" when in English, but perhaps we could mark the button as create-account-playful or create-account-informal so other translations could identify something similar to maintain the cheerful / playful language Syphon aims to convey in every language. This is something Discord and other modern apps do much more extensively than Syphon already.
Let me know your thoughts on this with this context and thanks for the feedback!
While personally I don't really mind either way, perhaps "sign me up!" (exclamation mark optional) could be considered a good middle ground? It keeps the playful tone but has more meaning when read literally.
"count me in" is not intuitive, because the meaning depends on context
- wanna sell your soul?
- count me in!
a button saying "sell my soul" is intuitive
there is probably some aria spec for this
just like dialog buttons should not be "yes" or "not"
but should name an action like "save" or "delete"

makes sense, happy to change it to sign me up for now if that would help with clarity and what you're going for here @milahu
Just for more context, Windows uses got it a lot and I think I actually got count me in from a system confirmation from Windows iirc
