Have you registered for the 2021 Source-a-Thon yet? [closed]

Question

October 1 - October 4 is our sixth annual "Source-a-Thon"!

This three-day event is for a good cause (sourced genealogy!), there will be lots of door prizes donated from around the genealogy community, and it will be lots of fun.

The marathon starts Friday, October 1 at 8 AM (EDT) and ends Monday, October 4, 8 AM (EDT) but you don't need to participate the whole time! If you can join for any of it, please post an ANSWER below saying either the team you'd like to be on (see the team list) or your genealogical interests or geographic location and we'll assign a team before the start of the event.

Comments

Great Francis! Have fun!

---

Thanks, Mindy!

---

Welcome aboard Francis! You are the Greeter and Steward so we have a special cabin for you.

I hope you brought your "sealegs". Not sure that Dutch word can be translated rigth. Well, whatever, hop on board after you signed in all at the passengers list and show them their berths.

Happy to have you with us again Francis!

---

Thanks, Astrid,

I'm just happy I finally got my Sea Legs. A special cabin... Astrid, I swear if I'm staying in that disgusting thing where the water drips into. You do need to take care of the steward, too.

Astrid, I'll send you a message on Hangouts, I have another joke. Till then, Davy Jones, don't look for seagulls.

---

I found you a better cabin. It just smells a little!

---

Wow! A better cabin. Oh wait, it smells. I'm sleeping next to the toilets aren't I, better bring some nose plugs, I can only imagine the stench. Maybe, if I keep the ice cream in my stinky room no one will want it anymore and I can go back to the writing of our adventurous journeys. 

I think that soon enough I'm going to lock you in the bathroom for a whole night because everywhere I sleep is disgusting. Maybe, Michel will help me overthrow the ship. Beware, me Hearty! (I reckon I'm too literate to know how to spell that word.) Keep your cutlass near you or there will be a new end to Davy Jones. Bwahahaha!

---

Yes, that is how much the toilet smells!
