I'm leaving now (again). It was nice chatting with you guys! :)
Esther Grace
Bye Katrina!
I should probably go now too. :P Goodbye all!
M27
Bye, Katrina and Esther! I'm probably leaving, too.

I'm confused…how long did the webinar last?
2 Corinthians 5:17
An hour. But the chat+questions kept going.
biblebee
So, people could still ask questions after the hour? How long did the questions last?
2 Corinthians 5:17
Yes, they could. I dunno…It closed out on me accidentally. :P But quite a long time afterwards.
Emma
I don't know exactly, because someone exited out of ours. But pretty long.
Emma
We just basically said the same thing.
2 Corinthians 5:17
0_o ;)
biblebee
Emma and Rachel: Okay, thank you. :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
No prob! :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
I'm going to try to ask How many contestants have signed up for the Bible Bee so far? tonight, but if it doesn't pop up (which none of my questions did today), can maybe one of you ask it? =)
Emma
I would, but I'm not going to be home.
2 Corinthians 5:17
That's fine =)

Is the contestant id relative to the number of contestants signed up? We signed up last night and my id was 2321.

Yes, it is.
2 Corinthians 5:17
I think so. Because we were…300's? And we signed up early April.
That being the case….whoa. That's low. =(
biblebee
And the BB Webinar is going long…
2 Corinthians 5:17
Mr. Upton must be wiped out…… =(
biblebee
Yeah, really. He's said it's been a long day and he's exhausted. And then he said he was having fun answering questions so he'd go long. :P

My excitement has really gone down :(
2 Corinthians 5:17
Lol! :P

Awww…hugs
Just remember…last year we endured some changes, and they ended up not being too bad. Hopefully this year will be the same! :) Who knows…we might like the SG as much as the SS!
biblebee
People weren't happy with the things the McMahan's were doing and now they get changes and they get all unhappy… I think the right perspective is to be thankful that BB is continuing and we should be thankful for the all work that everyone has put into it.
Bella M.
True :( I'm really nervous about not having the verses in advance though. I could handle only receiving the study one week at a time, but the verses is completely different! There's no way I would know them well enough :(

Wait, what's the SG? I'm not at the webinar. :)
2 Corinthians 5:17
Depending on how many verses it is… :)
Just do your best! =)
Bella M.
Okay ;)
2 Corinthians 5:17
"Study Guide". :) I guess BB contestant's new abbreviation. xD

At least though, there isn't any oral testing. ;)

If you want to go to nationals you still have to do the reciting in front of your parents or two other people.

I thought they said you didn't have to do that…? I hope that's the case though.

So the Study stuff and the verses are going to be released week by week? Sounds a little odd, but I'll go with it. :P
Ian R.2
Thank you. :)

Only because they are developing the material right now, and are not going to have it all ready by June 22, I think. :)

There you are!! :P

Someone asked a question about that and they said that you still had to do that… I don't know, maybe I'm wrong…
Matthew Minica
LOL! I'm not planning on staying, but I will answer your email soon. =)
2 Corinthians 5:17
_There_ you are!! :P
We've been waiting for you all day! :P Almost. :P xD

Well, they first said you didn't, and then they did, so I'm confused. =P

I noticed. My internet time is limited, though, and I prefer to use it in the evening most days. :P
