Fall [in love with the] sP Sprint
Replies
Hi everyone! , and I are continuing to care-take the Sprint this season. Our lovely is tied up heavily with real life (but we have a rope tied around her waist, we can pull her back when she gets too far away!) and ... Hope will always be in our hearts. I know I miss her dearly. ❤
That being said, we'd love to thank them both for all the hard work that they've put into the sprint, season after season. They've managed to bring us all together to achieve our goals, failsave and have fun together while we're at it. We're so grateful for what they have done and encouraged us to do. That's great you say, but:
What is the Sprint? An sP Sprint is a 3-month period where we, the Sprinters, make an sP-related goal for ourselves to achieve by the end of the 3 months. This goal is shared with everyone on the front page here, where we'll mark your starting point and what you hope to accomplish. For the next 3 months, Sprinters can post here on these boards with progress updates and general encouragement and chit-chat. When a Sprinter reaches their goal, it gets crossed off the front page list and everyone cheers and he/she gets to feel good about himself. :D
This Fall Sprint begins in September and lasts until December 1, 2014. You may join or leave whenever you want.
So what are our goals? All goals for a Sprint must be sP-related. That means you have to be able to earn it WITH sP. We will allow sP goals, CSC goals, collections, and wardrobe.
If there is something else, please feel free to ask us about it! We want to be accommodating as much as possible, but please do not be offended if we say no - we have reasons. You are still free to pursue that goal and talk about it here on this board; we just won't recognize it as an official goal with a post here.
If you want to talk about specific achievements you've earned, made a Sprinters Achievement Brag Board here.
Remember, Sprint goals are things that you aim to reach over a period of three months. We want you guys to participate, but this isn't meant to be a simple, quick-and-easy to-do list. If your goal is something you can reach quickly and without much effort, it probably doesn't belong here. Goals are things you work for, not things you luck into.
Don't let that discourage you from joining; try to challenge yourself!
The maximum amount of goals one can have is 5 different goals.
To be a part of this (and please come be a part of this! We love having new members!), just ping with your UN, your goal, and your starting amount. Check the list of other users' goals to see if you need help or ideas.
You CAN change a goal after you make it, so don't worry if you're not sure whether your goal is too easy or too hard! As you go along, you'll get a better feel for how much you can reasonably hope to achieve in the 3-month period and adjust your goal as necessary.
If you change your name, please ping us and let us know!
Join our sprint ping group here for announcements, etc. Join our "Goals Reached" ping group here for when you complete a goal!
Do you need help remembering to do Item Hunt every day? How about collecting your bank interest? Shinwa Quests? Whatever you need help remembering to do daily, you can join our SP Sprint Reminder ping group here and receive a daily reminder at midnight Subeta-time.

More Ping Group Info
spsprint is used to announce new Sprints and for other general info. PLEASE DO NOT PING THIS ONE TO ANNOUNCE PERSONAL GOALS. That is what GoalReach is for. You do not have to join GoalReach if you do not want to be notified when other people reach their goals. You must, however, be a member of GoalReach to ping the group - so if you want to ping the group to congratulate you on a goal well accomplished, you have to join the ping group!
We created these two different groups to cut back on unnecessary pings, so please be wise about this! Do not ping spsprint to other forums unless it is specifically pertinent to the sP Sprint! As stated above, this ping group is for announcing new Sprints and relevant information. It is not your personal tool for bringing more traffic to an unrelated thread.
If you abuse any of the ping groups, you may be removed. Removal from one of the ping groups does not mean that we are removing you from the Sprint, it simply means that you have lost your group ping privileges.
Just a reminder: It is not necessary to ping GoalReach for constant progress updates. The group is "GoalReach," not "GoalProgress." We encourage you to post your updates, but please keep in mind the underlying purpose of our ping groups.
You do not have to ping any group for things like borrowing SBQ sets, getting sticker'd, asking to be lent wardrobe items, etc. There is an Achievement forum for that. However, you are absolutely allowed to post on the board asking for help without pinging the entire group. Some members have made offers to help with these kinds of things, and if you post on the board, someone is bound to see it and direct you to help.
has come up with the fantastic and generous idea of CW-lending for Sprinters, since there are quite a few of us on this board who are very into them, and because maybe by sharing what we have with each other, we might all be less tempted to buy everything in sight and fail at all our goals and have less trouble saving. ;D
So, she created this ping group here - sP Sprint CW Lending. Everyone in the Sprint is welcome to join, and can ping the group on this board when they are looking to see if anyone has a CW that they would like to borrow for a short while. If there is someone who has that CW, that person may choose to respond and set up terms between the lendee and him/herself regarding collateral, length of time borrowed, etc.
This would be for current Sprint members only (we will check with the front-page posts to see) and you must be accepted into the ping group before using it, but that should not take long. At that time, please feel free to ask away!
If you have any questions, feel free to ping either myself, [USER=Keliora] or .
And for posterity, our last board - Summer Sprint edition - is here.

And... I'll take this just in the rare, rare case we need it.
I'll update (my posts) properly in the morning when I'm coherent. ILY ❤
Hi there! I'm tiffc (Tiffany) and I'd like to join the sprint. I'd like to achieve 50mil, with a starting total of 29.6mil. Because of school, I haven't been able to go on as much - but I think that this is an attainable goal that will be fun to try for!
❄️ Seeking Elsa or Olaf inspired CWs ❄️
Welcome! That is an excellent place to start for your goal. I've added you to the goal post. :)
If you haven't already (because I don't think I've gotten them), you can probably actually ping the groups in the first post now. :D It looks great!

hello! i just recently stumbled upon your previous board and am loving the idea of these sprints!
starting amount: 2.5mil goal: 250mil
let's see if i can get there, haha.
I'd like to sign up for a new goal of 500m, please. (Starting at 250m)
Whoo, failed miserably last time as I spent allllll my savings (and okay so I made my goal of 50 mil total savings but since I dumped myself down a 350 mil hole I don't know that it counts, lol)!
I'd like to sign up again, though. Starting point is 70 mil, I'd like to reach a goal of 150 mil.
And it's back :)
: Goal: 1b. Starting at: 809,587,067
billionaire's club here I come.
I do not know what you have received."

As agreed upon, throw me down for the 1billion increase, please. Starting at 1.5b, aiming for 2.5bil... because this is how we do it ❤ (and going back to bed now)
And I wasn't sure if I did ping the groups in the first post or not when I finished editing. but put the pings in now and we should be good and off running.
I didn't join last time and regret it. Even though I don't play as much anymore I really miss chatting here :)
Goal: 250mill Starting with: 45 mill
Good luck to everyone! This is the hardest sprint because of all the gifting in December. Be prepared for a lot of failsaving :D
EDIT: Oops, I misunderstood and pinged you Xiocite ^_^
I've never reached 100 mill before, so that's my goal this season :) Starting at 40mill.
