D001 - 2008-06-12 2:15 PM kaqphin - 2008-06-12 12:09 AM Dee - how soon do you need me to decide on the Tour De France challenge... I mean you got started for this months challenge VERY EARLY... Yes, I got started early this month. I was having withdrawal symptoms. LOL And no, you don't need to decide "early." If you want to run the TdF challenge, I'm sure everyone will love it and will have a lot of fun. If you decide that you don't have time for it, I'm sure someone will come up with a different idea. (It may not be as creative or fun, but it'll be a challenge.) Do what's best for you. Do not stress yourself out. no stress... what else am I going to do up til 3am? I mean its not as if there are a lot of options... just need to go look at laptops as Id like to have one by July... I just dont feel qualified to select one... Do you have an IT department at work? Ask them for some advice.... |

Champion 23360 Taser-World | Subject: RE: Nibbs XIX Actually, you know the number of teams right? So even if you don't know the names, just use numbers at first, and assign people randomly to those numbers.... You can fill in the team names later. So "BTer #1" goes on "Team 1" etc. That is, assuming that you have time to run a challenge next month! |

Actually last year I didnt do ALL the teams as that would have been way to complicated... there are uysually about 20 teams in the tour... but I would need like 200 people in the challenge minimum to handle that... if it got that big I think it would be all over... too many! |

Champion 6107 Out running or enjoying a fine glass of red... | Subject: RE: Nibbs XIX Morning, Nibbs... Just popping in with a quick update. Thanks for all of your prayers and thoughts - they must've worked. Dad's surgery went well - or as well as a triple-bypass can go. At least it was only 3. Tuesday he was in surgery most of the day. Saw him Tuesday night in recovery and he looked god-awful, but he was sleeping. Wednesday we got to see him every couple hours for a few minutes ( silly ICU rules...no, I know they're good, but it sucks after you drive so far) - he looked much better. They had him eating and walking and he was alert for all the visits. I'm headed home today after the first visiting period. Not only do I have the 13 hour drive ahead of me, but I'm going to lose the hour coming east. But I'm starting early and the monkeys can keep me company. He's going to need to make some changes in his life. I hope he's willing to. My brothers and I need to make some changes too. It's good to get a wakeup call. Thanks again. I'll probably be back, in regular fashion, tomorrow. |
