what's the point in joining as an individual? Isn't it all about the team?

I don't know. However, if you really want to be on a team you might want to ask druckfehler (the leader of the Asian team) about it. What can you lose? Or you could create a Thai team if you have good belief there will be a dozen people wanting to learn Thai in TAC '13.
You could consider this:

1. Click on "My Profile" near the top of the page.

2. Then click on "Logbook" in your personal profile.

3. Scroll to the bottom of your personal logbooks area, and click on "new entry to your learning Logbook" .

4. Choose "Journal Entry" from the drop-down menu for logbook "Type".

5. Enter the name of your logbook in the "Subject" field, in this case ideally indicating the challenge (i.e. TAC), year, team, and your username and/or a fun phrase connected to your studies somewhere in the title (keeping in mind that the maximum number of characters allowed in the Subject field is 41 or thereabouts).

6. Write an introductory post in the large textbox below.

7. Publish this in the "Language Learning Log" section of the Forum by simply clicking on "Post New Topic" at the bottom.

8. Optional: Edit the tags for this thread by clicking on "Add Tags" at the top of the first page of your logbook, clicking on a suitable tag or two, and then clicking on "Add Tags" again to complete the process.

9. Optional: Celebrate with a cup of tea and a choccie biscuit (if British), or any fine beverage of your choice from your own home country. ;)

many thanks for this! REALLY appreciate it!

cheers

Sorry but I have another technical question...

how do connect hyperlink to text in this forum and on learning log posts? I can't seem to figure that one out. (Is it HTML code that I use?...do I hardcode hyperlinks?)

thx
niels

I would like to join one of the romance teams if either of them are still accepting new members. My main focus will be Portuguese, but I will be studying French at school as well. My other focus will be Tagalog and possibly Cree, but I don't imagine there is anyone else learning those languages.

(Remove the "s - I put them there so it will display the code instead of making a

It's good ol' BBCode.

Really delighted that so many people want to learn Irish! Go n-éirí libh (good luck!). If I can help at all let me know. I
grew up speaking equal amounts of English and Irish.
