imageOctober 4 - October 7 — the start of Family History Month — is our fourth annual "Source-a-Thon"!

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

The marathon starts Friday, October 4 at 8 AM (ET) and ends Monday, October 7, 8 AM (ET) 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.

Hi I would love to joint the Wizards of Aus for the source-a-thon if it is not too late! Thanks
Hi anonymous Karen. Thanks for signing in and answering below.

Carrie, you need to ANSWER, not comment or reply.

And just what was so bad about my saying someone needed to answer, not reply or comment, that it needed to be hidden?

You would rather the person missed out?
Now, Melanie, you know no good deed goes unpunished! Shame about that, love your helpful attitude.
Melanie, I think something went wrong with the "show 30something previous responses".  I saw where the profiler involved has found her way into the answered list.   Later
as I was clearing my unwanted email list I came across the comment notice I had given her and your comment followed mine.
I couldn't remember what I had said so went back to see what was there and the "see"  line was so tiny I could hardly read it and all three of the comments were not there.
I couldn't find it and think they disappeared in the "see" contents.  Since she was registered I cleared my email and also the trash so I can't give you  anymore information.  I
remember being confused about why my comment was gone.  I don't feel your comment was singled out for being hidden although I can understand why you might think so.
If I hadn't been looking for my comment I wouldn't know all of this.  You and I have both given the same information about having to ANSWER and none of them were hidden
before.
Just my guess as to what may have glitched if no one else
has a better explanation.
Edit: added before
No. I am newby, not sure what it is?
Hi, Donna!

The Source-a-Thon is one of our quarterly marathons. This post is for the one that took place last fall.

We have a number of challenges occurring throughout the year. You can read about them here: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Challenges

I hope you'll join us! :-)
Thank you!

Donna

 Hi Carol

Thanks for joining us once again, our page is https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Sandringham_Strollers updating the page later this week

Thanks, Carol! You're #31.  Badge coming soon.

WOW, Eowyn! That was fast! Thanks! Except can I be 32? For me, after living in Asia for 3 years, 31 is unlucky (3+1=4, not a good number!).
Janet, the Strollers are my England family. How can I refuse the kind invitation?! Thanks!
My post seems to have been hi-jacked. I'm really happy with number 31, thank you Eowyn.
