Failbot!mod is actually being responsible leader on time.Good morning, afternoon, evening, dear citizens of Shiritori-land!
I hope you have all been keeping well these last few days, whilst eagerly anticipating the end of the previous round and the release of the upcoming round's line-up~
Well, you shall need to wait no more, for the new line-up is here!
Before we get to the main point, though: a few notes from your friendly Failbot!Mod. (The most important pieces of information have been bolded for convenience.)
Firstly, there was unprecedented number of sign ups this time round! A total of 27 people signed up for this upcoming round - the highest number since I took over the running of this community. Many thanks to all of those who enticed new people to join us, and cookies all round to everyone for signing up~ As I always say: the more the merrier, and with many people, we shall certainly be a very happy bunch of people!
Secondly, because of the record number of people who signed up, a fourth and fifth team will be introduced into this round to keep the teams at a reasonable size.
Please pay close attention to which team you're in so that you don't use the wrong team tag. Additionally, if everyone could specify which team they're in, it would make a team leader's job that tiny bit easier; historically, you've all been very good about doing this though so I'm not too worried.
Thirdly, team leaders are being reintroduced starting from this round (27 of you is entirely too many for me to handle by myself) so in addition to knowing which team you're in,
please note who your team leader is! They will be demarcated with a little crown next to their name, both in the list below and also in the sidebar. Their role is to make sure each team doesn't start dragging out. If you've passed your three day mark and you haven't posted a skip post, they (or I) will automatically post a skip post and notify the person after you. Of course, it would be much better if you could either post the skip post yourself, or notify your team leader or myself ahead of time if you can't make it.
That's all the general notices; now,
to the team line-ups!( New Team Line-Up, Effective 22nd September 2014 )Because of the addition of an extra team, each team leader is free to start their team off with whatever word they wish. Once this post goes live, you will have three days to get the ball rolling!
With that, I shall now sign out. I wish you all happy writing!
