You can start logging at midnight! The contest runs from midnight to midnight using
whatever time zone you're in.

Also, registration will remain open throughout the 6 weeks. A lot of people drop out in
the first week, so if you can only start on week 3, you will probably still beat them.

Thanks for setting this up Judith. The timing for me is perfect and I look forward to bringing my Chinese from A1 to A2. I have a week in China during this challenge which can't hurt but I will waste at least a few hours in Wangfu Jing bookstore to pick up some new books.

Why this challenge always happens when I have some life problems? :(


Oh... not to be mean or anything, but this challenge happens 4 times a year...

Maybe you are sabotaging it deliberately?

Maybe it could do some good for you to get your mind from your problems to something neutral and harmless, like studying languages? Perhaps you could give this just an hour every day? It worked for me.

I've signed up for the first time (Afrikaans). I find it hard to get motivated, so
hopefully this helps. :D

First time I'm participating,I'm really excited, really hoping that 6WC will give me
motivation to study French again (I'm probably at A2 level).

Is there a way to change a tag once you've already submitted it? I'd like to change
"Schritte" to "Schritte1_Arbeitsbuch" but it's ok if I can't.

Hi I signed up for French. I'm currently around A2. This is my first time doing this and
I don't necessarily
remember how Twitter works, but I can try... I'm excited and hopefully I can get my
French to B1 or B2.
