Here are the year-end summaries for The Japanese Team い. There are a lot more of us who survived the year, but so far, not many have done summaries. I guess they are waiting till the absolute end of the year, or perhaps they are too exhausted after a whole year of TACing, or are too busy thinking about starting next year’s TAC to think about ending this one.

It’s embarrassing.) kraemder Woodsei mrwarper Sunja Takato Edit: I figured I could add the names of everyone who seems still to be around and just add links as they write their summaries, assuming they do. Edit: I'm gradually collecting links as people complete their summaries. EDIT: That's everyone, I think. I've linked to summaries for all the logs.

Message 128 on page 16, I've sort of spliced my summary in where my new TAC begins. (My new online class started on Dec. 8 so I ended TAC 2012 early.)
In the course of my learning this past year there were a lot more hills than there were valleys, so there's not much to read in terms of a summary. A dotted line is the only thing separating TAC 2012 from TAC 2013. And so the journey continues! 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

These are the threads of the German Team for TAC 2012. My link leads to my 2012 language report.

I didn't wrap up 2012 too formally, and I did so quite early over my 'final' (but not last) post on my TAc'12 log and the second one on my TAC'13 log, so just in case anyone is interested I'll spare you the work to go through my log and I'll just put an excerpt with the relevant parts here:

Ok. This thread has been up for a month, and we have usually voted at mid - end of December, so I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I will be giving my vote now.
The difficulty of voting is however as present as ever. Most of us do not actually read all the logs, we read the ones of our team mates (for whom we cannot vote) and then we may read some for languages we are interested in, or by people we generally find interesting, and whose logs turn out to be good fun. Traditionally, votes have been given based on the strength of the individual logs of the team, whether they have been informative, fun, or whatever you consider a good log and how they as a team have inspired others and supported each other. This year we have also added the end of the year reports, to measure participation. I will therefore try to base my assessment on those criteria, all while I lament that I can not vote for more than one team, as there are good contestants on several teams. However my vote for team TAC 2012 goes to : THE ROMANTICS Individual logs There are several good ones, in particular those of Kanewai, Kerrie, Songlines and garyb. Kanewai's one has actually been on the verge of getting me in trouble for laughing at inappropriate places and times, and I have been inspired to read literature that I have been shunning for decades. Kerrie is an ongoing inspiration juggling two kids and tons of languages. Being a mom myself I know exactly how hard that is. She has also done an amazing job in the Super Challenge, where she has consistently been one of the top three, and thereby inspired others. Team effort As far as I have seen, they have been there for each other when they have needed a friendly nudge, and Kanewai has in addition started the Assimil challenge, which has contributed to making people going after fresh languages. Participation I do not remember how many members they had to begin with, but several members have made it to the end. --------------- As to the individual TAC my vote for 2012 goes to FASULYE. She has a work ethic which is inspiring, and she has been one of the more consistent participants I know - team or individual. --------------- So this is my vote, I will be looking forward to seeing the others :-) Edited by Solfrid Cristin on 06 January 2013 at 5:42pm 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||
