Our teams have grown a bit in the past months, maybe garages opening up and new members joining in. Since we've had several people join (and stay active) in the past few months, make sure you check out the Teams and join one!

The vast majority can count their members on one hand. Getting more participation would be good.

That's why I try to bring it up every so many months. I keep track of the "active" members, and we have been steadily increasing. We are just under 100 at the time of my last post on here, which seems pretty good.

One thing that would help would be a sticky location for the link. I find I always have to search for "team"....to find where it is. I would guess new members don't even know about it. I was able to recruit a new member to Team Metro through PM.

I've recruited a few to the Mustang ones, but half the people have fallen off. A couple didn't want to join because of their performance- but they don't realize it's about camaraderie rather than performance.

But since there is no actual socializing with it, it is just numbers to most people. Even for me, I just use it because it's a feature. There really isn't much more to it than joining :/

Just a little update here. It was brought to our attention that we forgot to place a link somewhere for this team competition stuff... So, its now located on the garage page next to the top 10 link:

I will add a link in the fuel log area though. Makes sense to target members who are already keeping a log on a regular basis.

Cool! That's about where Darin said he'd put it in 2012.

Hopefully that will generate a little more participation.

HEY!

In my defense, I lost my master "to-do" list around that time. Seriously.

And I never bothered starting a new one or trying to re-create the old one.
