anyone know if the CBC have found a sponsor this year? I hope everyone's fettling their bots ready for the contest - let's see if we can take all 3 medals for the Forge this year

Normally, yeah...but it doesn't seem like the CBC site has been updated in a while = no info about CBC 2008...hmmm. Anyone heard from Wendell?

IIRC they didn't dust off the 2006 residuum and announce the terms of the 2007 contest until a very few days before the start of the 2007 contest. So (fingers crossed) there's nothing ominous to be read into the apparent dereliction of the site (though whether they have a sponsor this year is anyone's guess!)
Keep fettling those bots folks - the Personality Forge needs you!

I'm sure there will be, but even allowing there will be - I wonder if there's any good reason why the Personality Forge Contest shouldn't be reinstituted? We haven't had one since before my time (the last one 2005 I think,) but it's not like there isn't a whole load of talent here on the Forge.

Hi to all. We are now accepting entries for the 2008 CBC. Everybody must re-enter. This is the only way to weed out those who are no longer interested. You can enter at the website http://www.chatterboxchallenge.com/
No definitive plans on a sponsor as of yet but the contest will be held regardless. Like always it cost nothing to enter so I hope all of you will do so. The more entries we have the better chance we will have to attract a sponsor for this years as well as future contest.
Thanks,
Wendell
