This looks like an interesting idea. :)
Is there a team that would be willing to take me with just one language?
Language I'm studying: German
Level: Beginner
Goals: To be better at German at the end of the challenge than I am now.

I'm aiming to finally reach basic fluency in German so I'd like to be in a German team along with our Romance+Slavic one.

Languages I'll be Studying/Levels:
German - Current low A1, Goal B1
Slovak - Current A2/B1ish, Goal B2/C1
Ukrainian - Current Beginner, Goal A2
If there's a Slavic/Germanic team I'll join in, but otherwise I don't mind going alone.

You're welcome to join us at Team *jäŋe / *ledús as I'm trying to work out how to fit in some more Slovak while potentially reactivating my Ukrainian so that I can sign up for a course for intermediate students (as opposed to novices) that starts later in 2012 (they'd better be offering the course again as I missed the cutoff this year). Kisfröccs and Volte are also aboard and their fluency in German shouldn't hurt if you run into some rough patches or have questions.
A quick check of the teams so far reveals that there's nothing Slavo-Germanic. How about proposing a Slavo-Germanic team if you decide not to join an existing team or strike out on your own? There's still time for people to join.

Chung, it looks like *jäŋe / *ledús is right up my alley. Cheers!

Your welcome to join Team 德 (German/Sinitic) as there are a couple doing German at the
moment and also quite a range of other languages too!

Language(s) you plan to study: Mandarin Chinese, (Maybe Manchu or Mongolian if I have time.)
Your current level(s):Mid Beginner, but I feel like I don't have a solid enough foundation, so I would like to
start from scratch. Total Beginner in Manchu and Mongolian.
Your goals for the challenge: To be intermediate by the end of the year. To be able to hold a short
conversation in the other two.
Whether you would like to be on a team or an individual participant
Any additional comments, requests, or suggestions: I would love to be on a team of anyone will have me! I
could also do the challenge alone. Perhaps an East Asian team?
I am new here but I have wanted to participate in the TAC since before I registered! I hope we can all
accomplish our goals! Good Luck everyone!!
