Please Note:
1. Even though there is no longer a team choice, there is always a team available.
2. We do our best to keep the teams balanced in number. The more competitive teams fill up faster than those who are more laid-back
3. If you have a team request post, you WILL receive an invitation to a team.
4. There are two reasons you may not be invited to the team you chose. Either you were one of the last few to request that team, or you defaulted in a previous challenge.
5. Teams will be finalized and sent to the team leaders on Wednesday, April 2. Invitations will begin to be sent that day and the next at the convenience of the leaders.
6. VERY IMPORTANT: You MUST pick up your invitation ASAP!! All unaccepted invitations are rescinded on April 6th. In that case, you will need to make a new team request and will be reassigned. (THIS DATE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE DEPENDING ON THE TEAM'S NUMBERS).
7. Practice Week starts on April 5th. Please take advantage of that time to get to know your teammates and ask questions.
8. Challenge Day 1 is April 12th! You are responsible for posting your starting weight according to the instructions on the Weigh-In Topic on your team.
9. Have a fun and successful challenge experience over the next 8 weeks!

    May I ask, on Item 4, does a "missed previous challenge" refer to the weekly prep tasks we've been getting? One was clean the house, another was colored foods, I believe, etc. I didn't do any of those. Am I already out?

    @AnAbsoluteDiva Thank you for asking.

    Quoting from the rules to stay active, "If you miss weigh-ins or fail to post for two consecutive weeks, you become inactive by default and forfeit your team choice in future challenges."

    If you posted something within a two-week period, you are considered active whether you participate in all the activities or not. We suggest you post as often as you can, even if you post zeroes. This is one way we help serious challengers remain accountable to their team.

    @Ceriusly1 Thank you for clarifying. I'm looking forward to participating and meeting and learning from others.

    @Ceriusly1 One more question - are the invites coming into our DMs on MFP? Or are we tagged on the forum? I just need to know what to look for and where. Thanks!

    @AnAbsoluteDiva - I'm a team leader on Mission Slimpossible. You'll need to look for your invitation under My Groups in the MFP Community.

    However, you signed up for my team. If you are placed on my team (and chances are good that you will be), I will be sending out a MFP Mail with a link to our Spring team as soon as invitations have been sent. I've sent you a friend request as message won't be delivered to you unless we are friends.

    @DNjoys I received the invite and accepted but I have no friend requests from you or anyone at this time.

    @AnAbsoluteDiva - I've sent you one twice - once when you signed up for MS and again when I saw your post here. I'll send you another one. If that doesn't show up, can you look on our team's Announcements - either the member list on the "Bulletin Board" or the list of leaders in the "Welcome to MS" and there's a link to my profile - and send me a request? Thanks! Glad you've made it to the team!

    @AnAbsoluteDiva You have accepted my Friend request, and perhaps you have also accepted Dee's. Please check your friend list.

    @Ceriusly1 I do remember receiving and accepting your friend request. DNJoys has a private profile and I can't seem to ask to friend her. I'll try what she suggested.

    When I go back to the original thread, this is what I get:

    Discussion Not Found

    The page you were looking for could not be found.

    @AnAbsoluteDiva - It's my understanding that even with a private profile, you should still have access to send message and send friend requests (not when clicking on their user icon, but when using the Profile Link). Whatever you just did though, it worked. You're now on my friend's list and should also be able to see my Profile.

    @DNjoys @Ceriusly1 I found Dee and added her as a friend and I think I'm all set now. Disregard anything else I may have posted and thank you both for helping me find my way. Much appreciated.
