    Dinos,

    Can I make a suggestion? In the other challenge group that I belong to... instead of just having an enormous thread that no one can track... and from the comments, I'm not the only one who missed your speadsheet post. Heck one person was in it in December and still never saw it... This is an awesome idea, but you might want to do it like the other challenge and actually create a "group" for it. Then, the group in the forum can have multiple topic posts that are separate instead of just this one monster thread. You could have one topic thread be where people post their stats for you to add to the spreadsheet. Have one topic thread where you post notices to the group, such as where you have put the spreadsheet and when it's updated or whatever. And then have other topic threads where the folks can interact on what they're doing or whatever. It's nice because then we can all interact more in a meaningful way. What do you think?

    Here is a link to the other challenge group if you want to see how it is set up: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/10134-15-000-30-day-challenge

    Doberdawn, we all know that a lot of the participants never ever move their butts or read what other people post, never mind opening the 'alleged' spreadsheet. On the other hand, I'm convinced that many people find the thread inspiring and have benefited a great deal from it.... Regarding the current setup, I don't see an urgent need to restructure, however I do like your idea of an @ss-moving group. I'd like to hear what other people think about it.

    Just mho, but the groups i've seen are not very active. They seem to start out strong, lose members (as happens) but rarely attract new ones. I think new people are just more apt to post here.

    If i had a suggestion, i might post a link to the spreadsheet in the month's opening post by Bluitz. I suspect that post is read by new joiners more than others.

    In either cause, i :heart: the effort Bluitz and you make to this group. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
