Thanks ellasevia!

Alexander.Stoma, you're now placed on Team Ж along with Solfrid
Cristin, nogoodnik, geordie, and snovymgodom. Originally the teams were made by grouping
people together who are learning the same language(s), but since Solfrid Cristin has
already invited you to her team I've made an exception. Don't forget to create your own
log though.

EDIT: This reminds me... I think I shall make an updated list of everyone who's still in every few months, since many people seem to have been dropping out and some have not started their logs at all yet (the Icelandic Team Þ, for example).

Good idea. How long does a log have to be abandoned before the writer is thrown out of the competition?

I was thinking that there should be at least one post in the past month detailing any progress (unless there are extenuating circumstances). But I would only make a check-up list once every three months or so, although from time to time I do drop into some inactive logs to "wake up" its owner. The person wouldn't be thrown out of the competition of course, just no longer considered part of it until they come back. I believe Buttons did something similar last year, and if she mistakenly listed someone as disappeared but they were still there they could just correct her. See here for example.

That seems fair, as it would prevent them from bombing the entire team (for those who are interested in the competition), but still not exclude them completely.

I'd like to (re)join TAC '11. This is Magdalene, formerly thephantomgoat. I can't
remember or find my password for the life of me (which is part of the reason I haven't
posted on the forum in over a month; the other reason: school occupying much of my time),
so I created a new account. I'm still interested in being a part of Team Ł for the
challenge, but I'm willing to do the individual TAC as well if that's no longer an
option.

I'll start my new log later tonight. So excited to get back into this!

There's a Japanese Team going, but it has five people already. However, since most of its members have either disappeared or updated very infrequently, I suppose I could add you to Team あ if you like.

Good to see you back! Ruskivyetr was getting worried that his team had abandoned him. There's no real need to create a new log unless you really want to; just continue with your old one and explain what happened.

@ellasevia: Thank you! I'll drop by ruskivyetr's log and let him know what's up. Could
you post the link to my new log on the "index page" of this thread once it's created?
