@Brun Ugle - If you saw my reactivated kujichagulia log, please disregard it and do not make any changes. I'm sticking with my Helemano account. My kujichagulia account was reactivated (thanks to the great admininstrator and moderators), however it is now somewhat buggy.
@stifa - Midnight is past my bedtime, so go ahead and enjoy the Skype sessions without me. Besides, I can probably get some Japanese speaking practice here in Japan. :)

How did you get them to reactivate it!? I have a friend who's tried twice to join and each time, his account has been inactive. I wrote to Iversen, and while he did what he could to check, he can't reactivate the account. And my friend wrote twice to the administrator, but he doesn't even answer.

I think the only solution is to vary the times the sessions are held. Some people will be able to come and others won't, but hopefully we can organize it so that everyone can make at least some of the sessions.

There were only three of us, but it was allright. We managed to speak a little bit of
Japanese (or from my part, Gaijinease), but it was kind of awkward at times - perhaps
it'll get better when there are more of us.
We agreed upon having the next meeting in two weeks. |

It is perfectly normal that it is a bit awkward in the beginning. You do not know eachother, you are speaking a foreign language, you can't see eachother and then there is the technical stuff.
It took us at least 5-6 sessions before we were even moderatly relaxed. You have made the first step though, which is half the journey :-)

I didn't get any PM. Did you get a message saying my mailbox was full? It's only about 50%, but I've heard there were problems with that. I did get one from g-bod and from Takato recently though. But there was another PM that I didn't get until a couple weeks after it was sent. Very odd. Maybe you should try again. Then I'll probably get two all of a sudden.

It turns out that my PM situation was due to my having two accounts, so my temporary account (Helemano) was deleted. I'll PM you again in a second.
By the way, because that account was deleted, I'm back to posting in my old kujichagulia thread. Could you change the link in the first post once again? (I'm so sorry!) The direct link to the beginning of my TAC 2013 entries is right here.

@stifa - The 26th is a no-go for me; I have quite a busy weekend coming up. Weekends are usually not as busy as this one, but the main problem is that seldom am I in a situation where I am completely alone in front of the computer and able to chat out loud in Japanese.
