Spungella On-Site Email Instructions for Sign-Up - Update

_________________________________________________________________________

[update:]

Well, this is very weird, looks like people got error messages, but I got all of your emails on that account. Maybe my host had a hiccup and sent out that error? But since so many had problems, what if some didn't go through?

I'm really sorry for that, no idea what happened. I changed the email and tested it, and just like the other one, it works.

In order to keep it fair for everybody, I will cancel this sign-up and re-open it for tomorrow, 12:30pm. Feel free to email me on the new address as a test today.
_________________________________________________________________________

ok got it.

Tomorrow 1 PM :D

May be it's because a lot of people send you emails at the almost same time so it's fail. Could that happen?

Hammy said...

I sent you a test mail before 1pm though and it also bounced. Then my friends and I got worried and decided to send to both email accounts of yours. Let the game begin again tomorrow. Haha, hope you are getting a lot of people signing up because it means it's a good sign.

Jean-Denis Haas said...

Hard to say, very weird, sorry again.

Hammy said...

A test mail has been sent to your latest email and it worked for me. Just wanted to let you know that. Hope tomorrow nothing goes crazy.. Haha! Thanks again JD. Sorry for the troubles. :) Now I will leave you to work.

Jean-Denis Haas said...

Thanks Ting! Good to know.

I got some emails asking for a different, since at 1pm some people are in classes for instances. What do you guys think would be a good time for everybody? Maybe late at night, like 10pm?

Meghana Gupte said...

would do but not quite sure if we have the make up class tomorrow ...7 to 10 pm

Yeah, good point. I guess either way it's tricky for some people. Maybe 12:30 is better, so it's lunch time and people should have no classes or commitments, besides eating lunch. :)

I hope one day to reach a level where I can teach others.

It seems so rewarding!

Too bad I can't attend the classe's since I am no where near where they are held.

Tricky thing about online for me is that I get face to face time with students for 3 hours. If I add a lot of online people it takes up a lot more time, due to all the writing. I'm looking into some webcam stuff for that. It's in the works, but not yet.
