I thought it wasn't even possible for newbies to make links. I thought there was some automatic restriction to make it impossible in order to reduce spamming. Or does writing them yourself rather than using the button get you around that problem? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I think it actually doesn't affect the proper links. Most spammers tend to just write a bit of text and paste a link.

I guess that fact and a very kind PM from LanguageSponge tip the balance in favour of me applying for membership in Team Sparta. Ellasevia and I were almost together on a Greek team in 2011 but it didn't come about back then. I'll be very busy for the next few days but I will introduce myself in the team thread and create a new log as soon as I can. //aloysius Edited by aloysius on 19 December 2012 at 12:54pm 1 person has voted this message useful | |||||||||

I’ve been thinking about the sign-up deadline. I was asked earlier to move it from the first week in January to further out in January, which I did. However since then many teams have grown much larger than expected and now have a potential second team/waiting list forming. I don’t think it would be fair to those people who are waiting in small groups of perhaps 3 or 4 people to be kept waiting. Since TAC starts on 1 January, I think they should know by then if they are going to have their own team or if they are to join the first team. I haven’t changed it yet, but I think the cut-off date should really be considered 1 January in the cases where there is a waiting list since that is when the challenge starts. After that, people could still join teams that are willing to take new members, but teams that are full are full. I can’t keep a small group of people waiting to find out what team they will be on just so that late-comers have the chance to join. If you come to the station an hour late, you can’t expect the train to be waiting for you. 4 persons have voted this message useful |
