Chat Tonight!!

Will be in the DST chat room! Thanks so much to DST for allowing us to use it!

See you there!

Almost Time!

We're putting the finishing touches on the details of the race which will slowly be revealed over the 6-week race. But, the festivities kick off tonight with a fun chat. Attendance is not required, but if you're dying to chit chat about the race, and pick up a freebie in the process, then come check it out. The chat will be at 10:00 PM EST (7:00 PM PST) in a to be named chatroom.

We hope to host it at NDISB, but are having some issues with our chat software right now. So stay tuned to the blog for the location. We'll let you know as soon as possible.

For those of you who cannot make it, I'll do my best to post the transcript in the ADSR private prize forum. But this may be subject to the chat software we'll be using, depending on where we end up going. regardless, I'll make sure everyone has the code to download the kit. I created this kit, Vintage Getaway, specifically for the chat.

Hope to see everyone tonight!

Over 200 Teams and Counting

Today is the last day to register, so as long as you get it in by midnight PST, you're safe. I still have about a dozen or so e-mails in my inbox to process. Those were all sent in the last 24 hours or so. If you sent in your application prior to February 14 and have NOT heard from me, please e-mail it again. And just to be safe, copy my other e-mail address:

We're getting close! There will be a kick-off chat next Friday and the first challenge will be posted sometime next Sunday. So keep your eyes peeled on the blog!

We're almost there!

February 13th, and 195 teams registered!

Oh, and did I mention there might be another little surprise? One due to happen any day now? Even before the start of the race? Stay tuned...

Only four days left!

All of you procrastinators out there who've been saying "One of these days..." are starting to run out of days!

We are approaching 200 teams for ADSR3! How exciting! Remember, the cutoff for registering is this Friday, February 15 midnight pacific standard time to have your application in. You should send it to racehost at ndisb dot com. Make sure you send in all of the necessary information per the rules below.

Also, if you haven't checked out the ndisb home page lately, you might want to take a look. We have five new layouts in our online digital scrapbook. (What better way to show off digital images, than in a digital scrapbook!) And if you've ever wondered what it takes to get your layout on the Natural Designs home page, you can check out the guidelines here. You can also check out the current, and former, layouts that have been featured on our home page. Who knows... yours might be next!

The deadline is fast approaching!

Just a reminder - per the official rules below:

The Official ADSR3 Blinkie is HERE!

For all of those wishing to sport the latest in blinkie fashion, you can snag the official ADSR3 blinkie from the column on the left. Scroll down to where you see the "Race Teams" banner. The first blinkie under that is the ADSR3 blinkie for you to show off to all of your friends, neighbors and co-workers.

See, we're already giving things away! Enjoy it in good health!

Also, the quickest way to see if we have processed your application is to look down that list of race teams. As the applications are processed, the team blinkie (or name) is inserted in the blog. There may be a slight delay, but usually not much.
