1st IC: Counting to 2000

[Cecil]

I'll be here for a little while at 10. I'm going to hit my PMs and then nap so I can be here.

[Zidane]

I think it might still be too early... since hardly anyone is here. Is another time okay?

[Cecil]

Shall we try noon, instead?

[Terra]

Yeah I guess noon sounds better. I'll try to go back to sleep I guess.

[Vivi]

Noon sounds good. I'm here for that.

Just a think I think we should do is as the hosts have already created challenge thread that we can each prepare a section to post in advance for when taking over, so can post as many as possible in shortish time?

So say if we have numbers here already to go then we can just copy an paste over into the OFFICIAL challenge thread. This way we minimize any chance of mistakes - or if we make a 'PRACTICE' thread for this.

Advantages -
when challenge starts or whatnot we can potentially post every 10 seconds (damn no chance to turn off flood control).
less chance of making mistakes in the official thread

Thats way mind is working for me? Sound good. Hope so!

[Cecil]

We also need to decide who is going to be the one saving our progress along the way. Selphie said we have unlimited saves... I would recommend saving every 20 to 25, just in case we have an accident and mis-post something. I don't believe that costs us anything, does it? I don't recall reading any sort of penalty for saving.

[Terra]

Yeah saving often is definitely important you never know what can happen.

[Vivi]

Is god to save often, it is said and god things are god, so lets do that. Unlimitied save there are but at least head start we have for when we post I try to give.

Damn we cvant just post 10 at 1 post, that would be mch quicker, but easy enough to c&p as was already created in practice, is that good?

[Vivi]

Spoke with host and we need to post... host/post. funny. It sings.. I like...


Need to post 1 number at a time, butat least we can just copy&paste the numbers I have already created into challenge thread, so literally every 10 seconds we have a number ready to post in challenge thread. So we be as speedy as possible in OFFICIAL challenge, yes? This be good thing I think. Hope you agree?

This gives us 100 that can be posted very fast, with 2 people jsut a few seconds apart and so long as they can time their posts and co-ordinate with each other, yes?

Also host said though there can be space between number tiles, so this is good idea as am finding easier to edit that way fi there is an error when checking in preview stge before posting in the practice thread ones I had done thatt are ready to post in official thread.

[Tifa]

Sorry for the late arrival, you guys. So it sounds like you guys think we only need a few people to participate, and I think a few of you have already agreed to show up for this? I am willing to sit out this one, and prepare to throw some punches during our 2nd challenge next week.

[Vivi]

Anyone can help Tifa, team effort is good for team, yes?

Just in case anyone notr sure what I am doing, have prepped the numbers 1-110 so far.

When we decide to start doing this for realsy in OFFICIAL thread go to the thread I have created.

For the numbers needed to post, go to QUOTE
Then at bottom of the window, hit BBCode.

This will show the sequence in the form of the codes rather than as the image.

Copy these codes to the OFFICIAL thread - 1 sequence per post, yes?

That should be all that is needed to do to give us over 100 headstart as soon as we decide to start. yes?

[Terra]

Yeah thanks for clearing that up Vivi I was being a bit of an idiot and didn't really know how to use all of your hard work.

[Rikku]

Hey guys! Did any of you guys experienced the pro boards crashing this morning? I tried getting here earlier, but that happened.

[Terra]

Sucks to here that Rikku but I didn't experience anything.

[Cecil]

I didn't have any issues this morning either. What time did you try to get on, Rikku?
