Last year more than 140 teams signed up for the WCG Christmas Race. And as Sekerob proved with some very interesting statistics, the participants really have been able to make a difference and set a good number of new global records for WCG.
----------------------------------------Time to say welcome to the very early signing teams: Rechenkraft.net Team GDB GraffChevrolet Vulture Central III STUDIO Mia Ukraine Team China Team Pohtas shorepower piotrekjw # A better world # --> SWECO Let's look forward piling up even more records this year.  |

Mad Matt,
----------------------------------------You know that for open challenges you can during set up still send invitations to the captains that participated last year (but you have to pick them one by one)... 2011 is your next chance ;-) We wish you of course break the billion points in this race :P Happy racing
WCG
Please help to make the Forums an enjoyable experience for All! |

Almost 20 days to go until the race starts, and already more than 30 teams have signed in. Welcome all! Also good luck & have fun to all teams who participate in the 6th anniversary challenge first.

What happens when the Founder of a team is no longer available to
sign up the team? What happens if the founder is "offline for the duration"? How can a team get signed up to this challenge then? I for one would like to see my team get signed up, but how can we do this if our founder it not available? I have not been able to run WCG for a while, due to two computers down for repair and the others are need to do their "non-Boinc" work and well as the two that are down. But if we can get Seti.USA signed up for this challenge, I know that there are members that would like to join the challenge for the Christmas Race. So, how can we join without our founder, since he is not available for the near future. Hopefully he does not go "offline for the duration", but it could happen to any of us just crossing the street, or driving a car and having another one fail to stop at a red light. That has happened to me and I nearly did go "offline" permanently. So any answers on how we can join? |

I will try to find out. But if you can not be done before the race and if the intention is to participate, you can do it through a team friend ... the important thing to help.
