Wobbly WOBBLE: Pre-Challenge chat
10am EST is approximately 11:30pm here so I'll be sleeping when it's listed! Wonder how many of the Aussies and neighbours will be up waiting for it
It MAY be a little earlier than 10. So if y'all in Australia and Asia wanna stay up a little late, I can get up early. :D
I can manage that :) I think a lot of people here will be thrilled with an earlier release! (Even if it's just minutes)
All the Captains have checked in!! See y'all in the morning (well my morning) for the team reveal! I'll get up early and we'll put teams up before 10am my time ~ just not promising when.
I hope everyone has a great Wobble!

OMG when I wake up tomorrow I will know what team I'm on!! That's so crazy. I'm so excited

Was he nice in person and is he as cute as he looks on TV? ;)

Yes it is, but I'm at home most of the day helping take care of my mom so I have a lot of time on my hands. Plus, having all my books organized makes feel all warm and tingly inside :) My room, on the other hand........

LOL! Love the memes! I still remember my first big challenge and it was so much fun! I'm pretty sure Karsyn was my captain. We had a BLAST!

I can't wait! Just a few more hours and I get to find out what team I am on!!
I know the waiting has been really tough this time! I love all the excitement over this challenge. It's going to keep things fun! Hopefully it won't be too much longer... : )
@ Becky - You are so funny! I love that meme :):)@ Ella - I have classes all throughout the summer but the craziness will be done by the end of June :) It is difficult sometimes to balance school, work, and reading when all I want to do it read!
It's 9:00 EST - can't be too much longer! Not like I'm compulsively refreshing this thread or anything. No, definitely not. Ahem.

I was thinking that there was more hype after the spreadsheet was posting. Glad to see some conversation get started.

If you do not check in with your team by Wobble start date (June 17th) you WILL BE replaced. You must check in with your teams prior to event start! You must also be able to check in with your team at least once a week, though more would be better!
If you do not see your name on the teams list and signed up after June 1st, you are on the reserve list. A few reserves have already been put on teams, so just keep an eye out!
Message this account or Karsyn with any comments, questions or concerns!
I think I'm missing from the spreadsheet. I signed up about 3 weeks ago when the message was sent out to the group. My user ID is 41747956-amanda. I was hoping someone could check on this as I was really excited for WOBBLE!
Well, Amanda, I feel like a great loser. I have you on both of my master lists, and have what classification you are on, but then you aren't on any of the teams there. :( You somehow must have gotten erased. I'm so sorry. I'll let you know your team in just a minute. It'll be one of the Endangered teams. Again, I'm very sorry!
Again Amanda, I am sorry!You are on team Markhors. Will get you added once I go to Mod account.
Thanks, sorry for the double message. I freaked out a bit and posted here before I saw your message below to message you directly. Again thanks for looking into it! Go team Markhors!
Iam Harpy Eagles and I was lucky in looking for my name. My team was the very first team on the spread sheet.lol smile
