Too early to post a thread? Nah...

39.5 HOURS REMAIN
http://doz.digitalmzx.com/

November 24, 2005
The DoZ has been pushed back an hour. It will now begin at 1PM EST/6PM GMT on December 26.

November 20, 2005
Judges chosen: Wervyn, ShloobeR, wildweasel, seven. #doz canned due to lack of interest.

October 2, 2005
NO ANONYMITY RULE. See the DoZ page for more details.

September 20, 2005
Hey, good news for people who are banned from and/or hate #mzx: I have a channel set aside for DoZ announcements. That channel is, appropriately, #doz on Espernet. Though the channel is moderated, you can seek out and /msg your team members there if you have to form a channel at the last minute or anything. People who are looking for a team beforehand can go there too I guess. I'll also post hourly notices stating how much time is left in the DoZ while it's in progress. What more could you ask for?

Judges will be chosen and announced by Monday, December 5, 2005
Signup form goes online on Monday, December 12, 2005
Topics will be announced on Monday, December 26, 2005 @ 1PM EST/6PM GMT
Deadline for judging results is Tuesday, January 11, 2006

<@Tixus> Anyway, I set the year to 1988 for some reason.
<@Tixus> And set the microwave to run for a minute and 28 seconds.
<@Tixus> But it failed to send me back in time, and I was disappointed.
<Insidious> Tixus accidentally microwaved the 80s
<Insidious> that is my takeaway from this

If I'm going to join again I should really have a team mate to spare my sleep... I'm free December anyway so I guess I might give it a shot again. (And actually try and win this time)

Dr_Dos, you can join Team Ultra Mega Mega Man X2. (me, micah, and ler) as an alternate, for the sadly possible case ler's house hasnt recovered enough from Katrina/Rita by then.

<lolilover> I notice alot of Japanese fiction involving kemono-mimi characters always has the main character saving an innocent animal and then the animal returns as a girl to reward him for his kindness.

Hey I suck a DoZ too, heck I suck at all MZX contests and yet I sign up anyway... O_o;

Although the only reason why I cannot stand the last one was because I needed my sleep... Zzzz.... maybe I should get someone to attend to the topic announcement for me or e-mail me the topic or something...

I definitely won't be able to enter, but I'll be happy to judge... actually, I'm quite keen to have a go at judging (though afterwards I might be whistling a different tune from what I've heard about judging).
