The Participant Roster for Challenge XIV!

Hello Challengers!

Below is the 'Brave 86' who will be taking part in Challenge XIV. We have around a dozen new people this year, which is exciting as I always like seeing fresh victims, er, faces in the ranks. 

As to the daily assignments, I've tried to accommodate any special requests, and have grouped our Australian friends under our antipodean Minion Millsy to better adjust for their time differential from CST (i.e. Challenge Snowlord Time).

In a few days I'll be sending out invites to the blog to those who are not already registered as having 'author' status. Also, in a short while I'll be posting a 'How To' package penned by our very own TamsinP. It's a riveting read, and yes, she will be conducting snap quizzes from time to time, so I highly recommend you do you homework and be very vigilant. The alternative is to risk 'undue unpleasantness' by the 'Auditrix-in-Chief'.  :)

  1. It's great to see so many new people joining. Remember, You don't have to be mad to join the challenge, that's just a common side effect.
    Seriously though, good luck to everyone, the best three months of the year are about to begin.

    1. Being already mad when joining helps a lot though! 😉

    1. Mirth and glee, how auspicious Thor's days posts will be!
      My spouse is correct to suspect, that I am far more excited for start of the painting challenge than for Christmas!
