Just a comment, we have a standard way of representing dates unambiguously:

That's my point: many countries have their own, but ISO 8601 is an international standard. And a well-designed one: other than the timezone (which is probably impossible to do intuitivel), it is completely obvious to anyone who looks at it.

Anyway, I didn't really mean to derail your event thread. Good luck.

Nice, I will be of the party then.

possibly nothing will happens, noone registered yet.

Players are in game, not lurking in the forum.
Just ask a GM for a global announcement some minute before and when the event will start, it sound fairer.

Edit: I join, register, whatever.

I let me surprise... i join...

I hope i can join at this time - so can you also jot me on down?

Thank you

Is it possible to take part in multiple paths?

Also, how is a word search going to work in the context of TMW?

Is CRC Nootrade the one taking the donations??

Please register Techron for the event

Thank you,

I'll try it, but a few questions about the word search since apparently it's not being judged on guide words:

Is there a minimum word length for words to count, or are the grids going to be chock full of 3, 2, and even 1-letter words that would have to be found for a chance at the top score?
Do words count if they're entirely contained in other words? (e.g. if "angelic" is in the grid, could you get additional credit for "angel", "gel", and in the reverse direction "leg" depending on whether 3-letter words count?)
What dictionary is going to serve as the authority for whether a word is allowed or not?

I would like to try it
