Excellent! Get all your teams sorted out prior to the list being posted to prevent any disputes down the road. Have ya' got a name in mind for your team?

Bonus points for clever/funny team names and logo's are encouraged, as well.

Still waiting to kick things off, but... it would be cool if most folks could be around when it started so that it's more fair. I figure it's best to kick it off at noon Idaho time, as that's the "home office" time zone.

It's not timed... some tasks will be available on a first come basis, though. These are merely bonuses at this point. If you can't be on as much, it might be more beneficial for you to join a group.

That's a signature... you can still use Horatio, though. The forum uses specific colors relevant to the forum and unique to other forums...

Different Fonts:

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog

In the poll forum there is the option to make a poll when you create a thread... experiment in the test forum if you're unfamiliar with creating polls...

Take a step back and look at this page for forum colors. See 'em? :p

It doesn't have to be an image... you just get more for an image as it's more work. You'll need to play around with image editing software like Photoshop to create images or have a buddy help you out.

That's why it needs to fit within the signature restriction rules. Anyway, this is a scavenger hunt... gotta' do some more scavenging.
