I'm trying to link up to everybody's logs on the team thread, but the links generated
don't work. What am I doing wrong?


If the link has a question mark in it, you have to use a link-shortening service (eg, bit.ly) first. (Yes, it's
annoying.)

Thanks for the advice, Arthaey. I'll try it out and see. Not all of them have question
marks, though. Anyone up for any other suggestions before I attempt this? I've been
trying to fix the links on the thread for over an hour. It IS annoying :s

EDIT: It worked! Thanks a bunch, Arthaey. However my attempt at adding an image is
failing. I don't understand it, especially since I was able to add two images before it
with no problems whatsoever. I tried shortening the link, but that isn't doing anything
either. Could really use the advice.

Hi all,

This is my first TAC. I've added my name to the wiki for French and Polish which puts me
into the french team and the Finno-Ugric and Balto-Slavonic languages. I'll add in my log
over the coming days.

If I've forgotten anything please let me know :)

I would appreciate having a Chinese-only Team, too. We are five who learn only Mandarin and no J or K.

Luso, please go on as our captain for Team Rare!

Thanks for the vote of confidence.

I wouldn't mind doing that (which is not saying that I want to).

As you all know, motivating a team with multiple, non-related languages is not easy. In addition, it seems that this year one or two traditional teams won't gather enough members for a lift-off. So, organising it will have its own challenges.

With this in mind, I propose the following:
1. We keep the rules from 2014.
2. We must have a new thread.
3. No observers, lurkers or whatever. Everyone can watch and comment, but the structure will be complicated enough as it is. Whether you are on the team or you aren't.
4. I have a couple of new (still half-baked) ideas to implement. I'll be glad to share them if someone else wants to lead. It's not like I'd keep them to myself.
5. We keep the name.
6. No limit to the number of teammates. As to remaining in the team, check the rules in point 1.

Once again, if someone else wants to lead, I'd be more than happy to follow. Just say the word, if that's the case.

What browser are you using? I only use Firefox on HTLAL because other browsers have caused me problems.
