shenanigains Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 This may be a silly question but please forgive me as I still have that new rebel smell... What are these squads and teams and such? Hoe does one join or get on to a team amd contribute? Quote The only difference between a rut and a grave is depth. Link to comment
Morrigainz Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 The squads and challenges are for the current 6 week challenge that is going on (March 5 - April...um...12?). Basically you pick a few goals (3 health/fitness, 1 life...more if you want) and work towards them during the 6 weeks.This is my first challenge so I don't know if it was like this before, but we are all in squads (Spezzy split us up) and so in addition to our own goals we also have squad challenges...last week was planks, this week is jump rope...that everyone participates in. I don't know if you can still join since the current challenge is about half over; you might ask Spezzy on that one Also...IT'S AWESOME Quote Level ?

XenatheWarriorPrincess Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Interesting...I never knew about squads or challenges!! I signed up for the challenge but I was never given any additional information...I just assumed that I was supposed to update my blog and continue on by myself. I'm not sure why I wasn't included in a squad, but I'll be sure to look for it during the next challenge. I'm still going to continue this challenge, even though I wasn't given a squad!

Morrigainz Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Aw Maybe you missed your name, or maybe Spezzy missed you. There's a lot going on here. Anyway...keep trucking along! You're doing awesome! Quote Level ? Half-Dwarf/Half-Amazon Warrior STR:21.25 STA:15 DEX: 10.95 CON: 14 WIS:15.5 CHA:17 SWOLE BUCKS: 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Link to comment

I guess you missed the squad assignment thread too? Quote I lift heavy things. Current Challenge Between Challenges Workout Log Sassafrass: a capella folk fantasy mythology Link to comment

Yeah, you probably just overlooked the Squad check in. Thats what happened with me Np though, do the challenge anyway! If for nothing else it is great motivation to keep on track!

And yep, I'm going to keep trucking along with this challenge. Quote Link to comment
Loren Wade Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 Xena. I just double checked for you, but I'm not seeing your check-in here: http://nerdfitness.com/community/showthread.php?8460-next-6-week-challenge-march-5-april-16That's where you would have needed to check in for your squad assignment. Everything is kind of confusing right now because the forums have been in transition for a couple months. Quote lobro's a druid? twitter | fb Link to comment

I thought I had checked in by replying to the Challenge Rules post.I'm a total n00b - I'll just make sure to check with other members next time. I've been here for several weeks now, so I'm starting to get the hang of things (I lurk in the forum and blog section).Thanks for all the help, folks! Quote Link to comment
Loren Wade Posted March 30, 2012 Report Share Posted March 30, 2012 It's okay! Everything takes a while to get used to. In fact, I did the same thing you did and ended up not being assigned to a squad cause I didn't reply to the new thread.Everything is changing for us as well, haha.
