Some time after that, I wrote a message on her Learn Yu Facebook page. No response and I've deleted it just now. Please contact her for us. I don't actually know her, never even interacted with her back on HTLAL.

I've received a message from Sprachprofi (the founder of the 6WC) to let us know she's travelling at the moment, but will be back home on Monday to take a look at the 6WCBot. Fingers crossed, everything will be sorted out soon after, and we'll be able to register for the 24th 6 Week Challenge then.

It looks like the bot is working now. If you already sent a tweet to register, you don't need to resend it. It should have already registered you. Check the list to be sure.

I tried to register for Spanish and removed the dust from my old (never really used) Twitter-account; I am not sure if my attempt was successful... it is still just saying "Just setting up my Twitter. ".

I don't know my exact level of Spanish; I started learning in march last year.

I'm signed up with ASL. It's on, Teango! ;)

(I'm actually rather non-competitive but I like to be playful. So good luck, I hope we both progress a lot!)

That's great news everyone, and a big mahalo to Sprachprofi for getting the 6WCBot back online.

Challenge accepted, arthaey! *Teango pulls a particularly scary New Zealand All Blacks haka face* :P

I have registered as well. Last year I registered with Spanish. I got real good at watching cartoons.

I have registered with Swedish. Both Swedish and Dutch are languages I started to learn for no real reason, but ended up quite fond of.

I've been to my 2 favourite libraries and am now well stocked up for the next 6 weeks - 21cm / 8.5" of books sitting eagerly on my bookshelf.
