This Sunday (midnight) The WPL will do a preseason test to validate all calculation and to make sure the site will update correctly. It will be based on week one of the regular season. So if you want to see how well your team will do enter as many valid challenges you can this upcoming week. This preseason test will NOT count toward the season.

Challenges:
Members: Shadows III
Open: Framing II
Open: Indulgence

The results will be posted on Wednesday, June 14th, 2006. If everything goes well the results should be posted within 1 hour after Tuesday midnight.

Crossing Fingers,
SDW

Remember this is a test run of the WPL site and will NOT count for the season. If anyone finds an error on the site after the results are posted please contact me, thanks.

Because this is a test to make sure all calculations work and update everything properly. And by doing it in mid June it will give me time to correct any problems.

No kidding. Watching 2 out of 3 games a day is going to take up 3 hours. Plus I'm starting my training for a marathon which will take up more time. Egad! When am I going to find time to shoot?

so to make sure this is right- if this were NOT a test I would have to enter one of the three challenges?

You are not required to enter but yes if you want to help your team you would need to enter one of the challenges posted for the week when the season starts. Last year we had several photographers skip out on entering for weeks at a time and that's fine since only 4 photographer scores per team will count out of a possible 7.

Thanks!

That's what I figured from the rules. But the more who enter, the better your chance is for a higher score :0)

Thats right oOWonderBreadOo. The more challenge you enter and the more team mates that enter as many challenges as they can, the better off the team is.

OHH and btw, thanks for the comment on one of my challenge entries today. Straight to the point, a good critique comment. Thanks

Ok I clicked the WPL page and saw all the stats and freaked. I thought we start the seaon in July? Well now that I know I am much better now.

Also I can get to this page fine:

//www.knology.net/~scottwhid/allteams.htm

but when I clcik the links at the top such as "Schedule" and "WPL Rules"

I get an error:

The web server returned a 404 error. This means that the page requested could not be found. The most likely cause is that the address was typed incorrectly. If this problem persists, please contact Knology technical support (support@knology.net).

I did what you suggested in a pm to me about clearing my cache but that didn't work. Is anyone else getting the same errors?
