Robochallenge questions

Can anyone participate?

Do you need to do anything special to become a participant?

Is there a specific format other than starting/current/goal that needs
to be included in a post for the robot to pick it up?

Is there a faq somewhere that covers all these things?

Think of the robochallenge as an excuse to post often :)

Would there be any benefit to having the robochallenge post any of its
information here? I'm thinking, weekly summaries, start-of-month
reminders, and end-of-month results.

It will also give people something legitimate to piggyback on :)
 
In the olden days (of 2003 ;-),

the person who ran the challenge that has been replaced by the
robo-challenge would do a start of month signup post, and end of month
result request post, and I think some kind of post that summarized.

I don't know if all that is neccessary, but a start-of-month and an
end-of-month would be cool, IMHO.

So far, others have managed that for me :)

I'll add it to my to do list, but at the moment it's nowhere near the
top :p
