Wait, Does this provide a clue to the error of my ways? This is the template (user.tt) that I am using for the form.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Get in the game.</h1>
<form>
First name:<br>
<input type="text" name="firstname">
<br>
Last name:<br>
<input type="text" name="lastname">
<br>
Email Address:<br>
<input type="text" name="email">
<br>
User Password:<br>
<input type="password" name="psw">
<br>
User Confirm Password:<br>
<input type="password" name="psw2">
<br>
Terms & Conditions
<input type="checkbox" name="terms"> I agree with terms and conditions.<br>
<br>
<input type="submit" value="Go" />
</form>
<p>Note that the form itself is not visible.</p>
<p>Also note that the default width of a text field is 20 characters.</p>
</body>

You need to build a web page with a FORM first, then submit the data
that way to the /user URL, so it can get handled.
Try using git to clone this repository and use that as a base for your
playing around:

I don't have any working examples handy right this second...
