I have received all the confirmations and preferences. Thus... it begins!
The next message you receive will tell you your country assigment. I was able to give out three top choices, two second choices, one third choice and one fourth choice. Not too bad.
Deadline:
I had intended to have our first deadline next week on Tuesday, but it seems to me that we're all pretty eager to get started. Perhaps we can get up and going right away?
I propose that our first year deadlines be slightly accelerated:
WINTER 1900/SPRING 1901: Wednesday 4/28, 8 pm Eastern US time
SUMMER 1901 (if needed): Thursday 4/29, 12 noon
FALL 1901: Friday 4/30, 8 pm
If anyone has a problem with these let me know and I'll bump out the deadlines, but this is going to be the easiest season for you and me, so I think we can do it.
Good luck, and have fun!
Chris
