I haven't been around as much as I would have liked over the last few months, but I would like to say thank you to Mooby for his great leadership! Your log is always entertaining and informative, and you have done an excellent job in motivating everyone.
As for next year, I can't promise that I will have all the time I'd like for Polish, but if Team Żubr continues into 2014, I would love to be a part of it.
I will be posting in my log at some point before the end of the week to give a massive update/summary. Now I have to go deal with all of my homework . . .

Mooby has been a wonderful leader--I had a lot of inactive periods throughout the year, but very often something that I would read in his logs (and Amerykanka and Chung's) would motivate me to start studying again. You guys have been a great team!

IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
With the new TAC just a couple of weeks away, let's talk about the future of the European bison; aka us!
Having mulled long enough I've decided that I'm going to break away from the herd in 2014, and give the whole TAC thing a rest. I'll start a new log and continue to read yours of course. Whilst I may be entering into TAC-exile, don't worry: I'll still be around to harass (sorry, "encourage") any stray bison !!
So if anyone wants to continue with a Polish team, now's the time to get recruiting. Advertise your intentions here and in the TAC sign-up thread, and hopefully there'll be enough interest to attrat a nucleus.
The other suggestion would be to join/propose a Slavic Team; there was talk of a Warsaw Pact team but I don't know if that's going to happen.
All suggestions welcome.
Do you want to continue with a Polish Team?
I've declared my hand, hopefully in time for other to re-organise if they so wish.
Please declare your intent, so that everyone knows what's happening, and can plan accordingly.

Sorry to see you leaving us, Mooby! Your logs were always helpful (but every so often I'm sure it's good to take a break)
I would really like to continue with a Polish team for 2014 (and will probably be giving my final 2013 update pretty soon). I hope there's enough interest!

I don't mind either way when it comes to the existence of a team since I've pretty much established a pattern of working on my own pace and will continue that indefinitely.

I've been thinking about TAC 2014 and unfortunately, I don't think that I can make the commitment. I haven't
had enough time to be a proper part of this team for the last few months, and even though I keep on trying to
convince myself that I will be less busy next year, I know that won't be the case. I would feel bad about joining
a team and then barely participating.
That said, I will drop by from time to time and if there does end up being a Polish team, I will watch its
progress with interest.
I may end up doing an individual TAC, but I will probably just open a new log for 2014 and update it whenever
I have the chance. It would be great to hear from you guys from time to time and hopefully in 2015 I will be
able to play a more active role.
