Hi again everyone,

[...] if mrwarper can get the Russian "million and Queen" thing in Russian, and an assurance from a Russian that it is not totally inappropriate to say it in public, we could even have that there!

Any other ideas for what we could fill it with? Anyone else who will step forward and assist riff?
Well I guess I can lend a hand with the website. Riff, will you please contact me privately for that?

As for my joking motto proposal, it doesn't take a native to tell you something like that is *not* appropriate for all audiences, does it? I picked up the notes from my desktop last week and all I found is "красть так миллион..." -- "..." in my notes usually translates to either "and you know how it ends" or "don't say this in front of the children -- will nobody think of the children?" ;)

However, for those further interested, a quick google search should give you some ideas about how it goes on.

Christina, I tried PMing you, but it says your inbox is full. I posted the end of year
report on my log. It's the same one, but with an updated name. So you can go ahead and
post the link to my log. I will post the link where my 2013 TAC post starts for easier
access to the 2013 posts as soon as my first post is up in a short while. Thanks!

I have added you to the first page here, and after quite literally wrestling with the computer for half an hour I managed to add you to the voting page as well. What is the matter with the forum these days? There are times when I can barely access it!

Oh, and I have deleted some messages so it should be ok. to send me new messages.

3. READ AND COMMENT IN YOUR TEAM MATES' LOGS

It can feel like heavy work right now, when everyone is eager to write, and there are so many logs, but from March on at least, it will be a piece of cake, because people write less frequently. It is however extremely important that we keep doing that, because it is demotivating when you see that the three last posts are written by yourself and that noone has bothered saying anything. "Keep up the good work", or a question about something you have written is way better than silence.


If you create an email filter for all emails from HTLAL, then sort them by subject, it is much less daunting to deal with lots of logs. I somehow ended up on 4 teams, and both MIR and PAX are super-active. Filtering and sorting HTLAL mail makes it much easier.

Okay, so after getting feedback from espejismo (спасибо тебе большое, если читаешь то сообщение) on the title reward system, I am ready to release the Little Challenges. I'm really sorry they weren't ready for New Year's Day as I originally intended. Shall I just put them all here (there are about 140 of them in total) or does someone have a brighter idea?

Jack

Jack, I'm still trying to get up to speed with everyone's logs (and I hope not to be alone). Could you please give a quick explanation (or a link if it's already somewhere else) about that "title reward system"? What is it?

Put them on the website. Then we'll be able to access them directly instead of having to
browse through 34 pages of text.

mrwarper, I will explain a little later, I'm packing to go back to China.

Meanwhile, tarvos, oh Supreme Technical Guru of Team MIR, do you know of a way we could post audio files to each other without going through email? Some of the challenges are specifically spoken ones and I'd like a way we could all listen to them?

Thanks,
Jack
