Yikes I've done appallingly so far :(
I'm going to try and get back to studying (well as hard as I can allow myself after a near
mental breakdown O.o").

I'm not sure if this has been reported yet but I recently made my twitter private (for
employment reasons) and I just realized the past week or so of me logging it hasn't
recorded my times, so I am going to unprotect my tweets for a small window of time and
resubmit my summarized times of the past week. I'm not sure if this is a bug or not.

Not a bug. If you make your Twitter private, that means that nobody can read what you
write there. Not even the bot. Hence it can't count what you write.

Hi Sprachprofi, I have two suggestions for graphs for the 6wc that I think would be quite useful. I know you are busy, especially starting your amazing new Mandarin course, but I thought I'd float the ideas anyway.
1. A line graph which shows cumulative time. It would be like what we see on the Date graph, but it would just keep going up and up. I think it would be really encouraging to see. Even if a person just does a bit here and there, they'd still see a climing chart.
2. A line or column graph which shows the highest rank achieved each day. For the more competitive among us, it would be nice to see what rank we got each day.
Thanks for all of the work you have done running the 6wc!

So... looks like the end is in sight. I just wanted to check the closing date: is it the end of the say on the 11th of Sept or the 12th of Sept?

The challenge started on a Thursday, so it ends Wednesday night, the 11th of September,
end of the day.

I just wanted to say I"m quite happy with my first involvement with challenges here on the website and I ended up
coming 4th in this 6wc.
I wanted to say thanks to everyone else that competed for providing me with the motivation to try and spend some
consistent time with the language.
I'm looking forward to the next 6wc and a new language which I will use for it.
Thanks once again everyone.

Likewise! I found the 6wc not long after finding HTLAL - great introduction to both! And csidler, I ended up
coming in third - you and I were neck and neck for a while! ;)
