The 6WC has already started in some countries, and will start in 2.5 hours in mine.
I will do Portuguese again. I have this plan of studying Portuguese only during 6WCs, say, every other 6WC. My goal is to understand the gist of spoken Portuguese, to catch half of the words, maybe. I use newscasts with transcript. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

I will sign up for Icelandic. I plan on getting through and digesting Hippocrene Beginner
´s Icelandic and Teach Yourself Icelandic (both are short). I want to get the gist of radio and written news stories. EDIT: Not signing up through Twitter, so it'll just be for myself! Edited by solocricket on 01 February 2015 at 12:23am 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I would be very disappointed if you don't join in, PM. The rules clearly state "B1 or below". You are B1, so you fit the letter of the law. I tend to be one of the people on here who looks sticks to the rules and looks for fair participation (e.g. I objected when someone tweeted 6 hours of music per day), but at the end of the day it is a big fun event. Go on, go on go on. You will, you will, you will. In other news, I was all geared up to sign up for French. Then today I got a message from a friend in India inviting me to do some research with him this summer before he leaves, so .... I've signed up for Hindi! 6 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Okay i'm in then... if people have an issue with this then disqualify or ignore my results, but i would love to join in for this 6wc, so I am based on the support of a few :) Edit I work around 36 hrs on avg a week. I put myself down as part time for two reasons. 1.My main job allows often for some French study. 2. My main job begins late in the afternoon usually so I can study a lot in the mornings Edited by PeterMollenburg on 01 February 2015 at 4:01am 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

The bot isn't recognising my latest tweets. I can see the one confirming my registration
and then another for my first entry but the last few haven't worked. Initially tried putting in decimal hours (3.5 hours) and deleted those tweets and retried with "3 hours and 30 minutes". Any suggestions? 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Are you putting the tag for your language in there? Even though I'm only studying one language it wouldn't count the ones when I forgot to put the #French tag in. You don't have to on the Super Challenge bot, and there isn't as good of documentation on the linked site for the 6WC, so I was initially confused. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

I wrote: "@6WCBot #Spanish 30 minutes of..."
I'll try putting #spanish at the end and posting in number of minutes only. "@6WCBot 180 mins #class #Spanish" Something along those lines. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||
