Sal- initial post any time before the 7th.

Jay and Chris- yes, total polyp count, on original plug. I'd find it extremely odd if you are growing new polyps but lost the original one, but does not DQ you.

Yea, pickup over the weekend should be alright (depending if I end up having plans) and if you pay by tonight you'll be on the official list for the start of the contest.

Sorry I am new to this site and late on this. Are there polyps still available? I see people from the city were picking up their polyps. I can't make it to Streamwood but, could meet someone in the city. I live in Logan Square. Let me know if someone could pick it up and I could meeting them for pick up. If so, I need payment info.

Thanks! Had to turn off all the pumps, jack the settings on the cell phone to akward extremes, and hope I didn't drop ma phone in the tank (again :p ). It worked out, I think :)

Edit: We can't do strikethroughs?? I was gonna scratch "cell phone" and put "cellular device" for Kerbs! ;)

you dropped yur phone in the tank!?
It was dark, so I needed a flashlight so I could top off before bed...and um, yeah...the led stayed lit for a good 2 secs before it shut off. A couple days in a rice bath and the phone actually works, but the power button is goofy, lol
