I thought I would start by sending PM's to all team leaders in mid-November to give them a heads-up and to get some suggestions about teams (on the sly sort of, so I have some idea what's going on beforehand). Then I will post in the senior forum to see what everyone thinks about the ideas for teams and if they have any others to suggest, and also to get a core of at least 3-4 experienced members on each team before sign-ups start for real. We would also decide on leaders then and only they will be allowed to start team threads. After that, at the end of November, I would post a sign-up thread here and let the chaos break lose, hopefully in a slightly more controlled form this time.

That sounds like a very solid plan! I'm glad you're willing to handle the chaos again next year, Brun :)

I've never made any secret about the fact that I am insane. However, I do intend to try to contain the chaos a little better. A controlled explosion like a rocket rather than a bomb would be nice.

Edit: I want to see how it goes this year first, but I think it might be a good idea to limit the number of teams each person is allowed to be on. I'm afraid teams might lose members not because the people quit TAC altogether, but because it becomes too much to keep up with so many teams.

I think that would be wise. I tried to ask people what their experiences was with being on several teams this year, but I did not get any answer. I chose to be on just one team in 2012, and that has been quite enough. You still get to study all the languages you want. I did however fall into temptation with the Greek team, but I think I can handle it since it is such a small team, and three of us are already in team MIR. I do not know how people who are on three 15-20 people teams handle it though.

Brun_Ugle, I tend to set up just one log for each language, and so it will be. I have yet to set up a log for
Russian, but I'll explain that to Mir people. Here is the link to my Georgian log:

Here is my log for both Spanish and Esperanto: Cambyses

Also, your link to the Romulan thread is out of date. Here is the new Team Romulan

EDIT:
Argggg...when will I be able to post links? You get the point, though.

Thank you! You'd think I'd at least be able to get the links for my own team right.
