ATW: Ongoing Team Challenge: SIGN UPs

[Marmie7]

Hello! I'm Annie. I read a bit of everything, with my current favorite being fantasy.

[PNJ]

Hi everyone! I'm Janet and I would like to sign up to play. I am recovering from multiple strokes, and while i read fast, I sometimes need a little extra help getting the things posted right. I also do better if you PM me so I know what I need to do, as seeing out of only one eye makes missing things almost a guarantee! I'm a happy gonlucky person though, and I am excited to be playing along with you all and sharing the love of reading. :-$

[Johanna]

Hello, I'm Johanna, 33 years old and from Germany, and would really like to try out this challenge.

[Misha]

Is this still going on?
If so, I would like to join again.

[NBRC Travel Agent]

We have 4 people so far for a new team - would you all like to wait for a few more players to start?

Annie
Janet
Johanna
Misha

[Zuzana]

I would like to sign up.

My name is Zuzana and I'm 35. I like reading any kind of books that catch my attention. My reading speed is about 1 book per week. This is going to be my first team challenge ever and I can't wait. :)

I think I'd rather go and find another challenge because I found out that there is no competition between the teams. Wouldn't be that exciting for me then, sorry.

@ NBRC Travel Agent Without Johanna there are still 4 of us. If I get an o.k. from Annie, Janet and Misha, do you think it possible to start a smaller team and add the rest of the players later?

[Moderators of NBRC, Challenger-in-Chief]

Yes, that's fine Zuzana. We can either wait for a few more players, or start a new team now, whatever you'd all prefer

[Cynthia]

I would like to play if possible. I am 37 years old from arizona. I usually read anything but Sci fi. Aliens aren't my thing. I usually read about 2 to 4 books a week.

[Zuzana]

I'm waiting to hear from Janet, Annie & Misha. I PMed them yesterday.

[Zuzana]

Cynthia, would you like to start early or wait till the team is full?

[Cynthia]

I am good either way. I am easy going

[Zuzana]

Still no reply from Janet, Annie & Misha. Looks like there's only two of us, Cynthia. :(

[Cynthia]

Want to do just us two and hope others join?

[Zuzana]

I'm fine with that, Janet, Annie & Misha can hop on board later if they still want to play. :)

I really hope that somebody joins us or we'll have to read 7 books between the two of us for each destination. Good thing we can spend quite a lot of time in one place before we move on to another. :D

I am happy either way. Start now or wait, I will leave that decision up to the others.
