Some technical notes
I've implemented the dropdown list in an attempt to avoid some of the confusion with names. This means:

*Donut4* When logging an assignment, please remember the first five letters of your Prep username (not WDC username or NaNoWriMo name). This is what will appear in the dropdown on the logging page.

*Donut4* If you have logged an assignment (or assignments) already, please check to see that it (they) has (have) been registered on the spreadsheet. If not, go ahead and log it again using the dropdown.

*Donut4* Anyone newly signing up will have to wait before logging their first assignment. I have to populate the dropdown list manually; it's not automatic. Sometimes I'm not online; sometimes I've been drinking. Sometimes both. We have other people to do this, too, but I'm on point for it.

Signups are still open until October 3, and I plan to check regularly for new signups to repopulate the form. But if you've signed up and haven't seen your name appear in the dropdown list after, say, an hour or two, feel free to post here or email me directly. (There still might be a delay for the above reasons, but at least I'll know to do the work.) We will not penalize you for any delays on our part.

That last bit doesn't apply to anyone who has already signed up; you should be in the dropdown list now.
